Best safari experience, friendly people, amazing food and scenery
We have fallen in love with Tanzania! We booked the 5 day mid range Safari (ended up doing 4 days due to arriving a day late due to flight delays) with cross to Africa safaris/suricata safari- then a 4 day extension in Zanzibar. Firstly, the people are beyond friendly and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble! You are well looked after as a tourist as the tourism industry is valued. Safety was not something we even gave a thought to whilst in Tanzania.
Our driver was great and knowledgable. We ended up seeing all of the Big 5 and more. The way the tour operators and drivers work together meant we not only saw everything but as a group in the bush you feel safe, that should you run into any trouble there are other groups around.
The fresh hot food our chef made on our safari was a pleasant surprise on our picnics! And the lodges we stayed in were in the middle of the wildlife but still luxurious (just what we wanted).
The organisation of everything was second to none!
And no trip to Tanzania would be complete without witnessing the paradise on earth that is the island of Zanzibar! Beautiful beaches, amazing seafood, and snorkelling to die for.
As they say ‘you leave your heart in Africa’ we definitely did after this trip and will be returning!

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Lamia Zafrani
This was by far the best part of our safari! The lush Green of the crater is home to so much wildlife. We even saw a few black rhinos!

Review about Serengeti National Park by Lamia Zafrani
Home of the lions for sure! We saw plenty and in such close proximity. We saw leopards, cheetahs, giraffes elephants.

Review about Tarangire National Park by Lamia Zafrani
We started our safari here, it’s a great park to start in, you see elephants giraffes and zebra as well as lions in relative close proximity. It’s less open like Serengeti or ngorogoro so it does feel more like a park than ‘nature’ if you understand what I mean but that doesn’t take away from its beauty.

5 Amazing Days in the Serengeti
We just returned Friday Jan 27th from the most amazing 5 days in Serengeti. I dealt with Lightness at Easy Travel, and she is patient, knowledgeable and just so very nice to deal with. We probably went through at least 10 itineraries before we found the perfect one for us. I can’t praise Lightness enough. We arrived in Kilimanjaro on Saturday pm, we were met by Hussein, who took great care and got us safely to the coffee plantation(free upgrade due to overbooking!) we were delayed at the airport due to lost luggage. The team at Easy, Actually Lightness, took over after all the paperwork was filled out and worked hard to get the two pieces of luggage out to us while on Safari. We flew from Arusha to Serena airstrip early Sunday am. Our incredible Guide, Emilian met us at the airport and the adventure began. We had a morning drive, which was amazing, lion with an elephant kill and silver back jackels trying to sneak a snack. We then headed to Tortilis camp, our home for the next three nights. This was also fantastic, right in the middle of it all. The staff there was amazing and the food superb. The evening soups alone would have sustained me. Went out for an afternoon drive on Sunday as well. Monday and Tuesday were full days, with a delicious lunch packed by our attentive hosts at Tortilis. Emilian is the best guide in all of the Serengeti. He showed us everything you could possibly want to see and then some. He knows the animals and birds so well, a guide with a google like brain. In one day, we saw a leopard, tons of cheetahs, including a cheetah chase and get a reed buck, giraffes, elephants, lions, zebras, wildebeests, a cheetah with her three cubs, a lion lounging in a tree and ultimately lions mating! We watched the pair for over an hour, we were the only truck there and they were about ten yards away, surreal. We got back to the camp as the last light was in the sky. Tuesday, we made our way towards the great migration as well as tons of giraffes, also the lions who had walked through our camp the night before! On Wed we headed to Ngorongoro, stopping just outside the park entrance to get the most unbelievable view of the great migration. Ngorongoro has so many animals, however we did manage to spot and watch a black rhino. This is a nutshell version of an amazing, perspective changing few days. Call Lightness tomorrow and book your trip!
