Everest is kind thoughtful happy company and boasts a massive volume of knowledge we felt fortunate

We felt blessed to have bern directed to Easy Travel and particularly to have been allocated Everest as our guide. He went out of his way every day to spot animals teach us Swahili make us laugh and share his wealth of knowledge. Everest has been a guide for many years and we learnt so much. Thankyou Everest for everything. Love Jen and Steph. See you next year!!!

We took a day hike of Mt. Kilimanjaro (only up to Mandaru Hut) and very much enjoyed our guide!
We had a good day trip to hike up part of Mt. Kilimanjaro. We really appreciated being taken to mass and we enjoyed seeing Mt. Kilimanjaro from afar as we drove to the entry gate. Baraka was a very helpful and patient guide. We really liked seeing some of the monkeys in the forest and how Baraka pointed out some of the beautiful flowers. I think it would be helpful to put in this itinerary that it takes 3 hours from Arusha to get to the main gate and I think that there should be a viewing point of the mountain along the way where we could have gotten out to take pictures (since you do not see the peak along the hike that we did). We are glad that we went and enjoyed Easy Travel’s hospitality.

Wonderful experience with Easy Travels
We went ahead with Easy Travels after getting quotes from 3 operators. The tripadvisor reviews and prices made it an easy choice for us. The booking experience was good although a web link-based booking would've been better. The communication was clear and crisp throughout the pre-booking/booking/post-booking phases.
We had an outstanding trip with the help of Gladys and her team. Ours was a 6-day safari followed by Zanzibar trip(arranged by us).
My wife and I had an amazing vacation thanks to Easy travels. We stayed at 6 places over 7 nights and all were very nice stays.
Tom was an excellent guide and he knew every part of Tarangire, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. He was extremely enthusiastic and patient and showed us a LOT of animals/birds - especially some rare sightings - leopard hunting during daytime, mother and child rhino. Tom made our trip very special.
The staff of each lodge we stayed at had been informed in advance that it was our honeymoon and we had private candle-lit dinners and cake cutting(we were almost annoyed by the special treatment given to us by the end of the safari :D)
All in all, I'd definitely recommend Easy Travels to everyone looking to visit Tanzania.

bad beginning, very good ending!
We went on a safari trip in northern Tanzania with 4 people (2 couples). The first days were disappointing, during booking we asked for an experienced guide, our expectations were high... We had a guide who got lost in Tarangire NP, he didn’t know the lodge where to take us, he had no binoculars with him, did not use radiocommunications with other guides... He was not an experienced guide. We waited for a while and gave him the benefit of the doubt, but it soon became clear that this guide could not give us the holiday we had in mind. The fourth day at noon I called the Matoke emergency number (easy travel) and told about our problem, then everything went very quickly. A new guide was arranged and within 2 hours Benedict was waiting for us at the gate of the Serengeti. We brought our baggage to another jeep, formalities were taken care of, this was of course a difficult time for our previous guide.
We ventured further with Benedict to Serengeti, to Mara river, Ngorogorocrater ... The safaris were great, Benedict really has eagle eyes, knows the area inside out and knows how to avoid the crowds, he’s very attentive and knows the tricks of the trade. Picnic lunch with wine ticks on the savanna, an excellent guide who showed us the real Africa and gave us dream moments. We are sorry that our trip had a bad start, but despite that we still had a great vacation. The manager of easy travel was sincerely concerned and we met him in the last lodge. We had a quiet and friendly conversation with him, providing clarity about the poor start of our vacation.
We continued our trip to Zanzibar for the next 3 days, upon arrival in Stone Town there was no one to pick us up, Matoke had apparently forgotten to inform the hotel that our flight was early, according to the hotel manager. We were not overwhelmed by Stone Town, the Indian ocean was very nice, we hired bikes, went snorkeling, but there was not much more to do in Zanzibar for us. After the great safaris, this part of our vacation was anticlimactic for us. Our heart is in the real Africa, the savannah and wildlife.
We are already planning our next trip, perhaps with easy travel. They have solved our problem quickly and efficiently and we now know where we can find the best guide: Benedict!
Thanks for everything! and hopefully see you soon!

Very good experience
We were three people on safari for 4/5 days between the Ngorongoro and Serengeti las t August. I must say we had an enjoyable experience. Because we were late with payment, we lost our reservation and Easytravel secured other and better accommodation while keeping the same price. After I received several quotes from other companies and being an experienced safari goer, I can say that it is one of the company with the best ratio price/quality.
Our driver guide went out of his depth to spend as less time as possible on the roads between parks at our demand since were only there for limited time. We saw all major safari animals including the big five and a leopard hunting in the Serengeti in only 2 days and a half.
I would definitely recommend Easytravel to other people.

Safari of a lifetime led by Ombeni Moses from Easy Travel
I traveled on a 10 day trip to Arusha National Park, Terengare National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu and the Serengeti. The trip was coordinated by Voice at Easy Travel. Voice was incredibly responsive, helpful, and made the trip itinerary very smooth. Ombeni Moses was our excellent guide. He was a knowledgeable teacher who taught us the plants, animals, history and culture of the region. We saw so many lions, cheetahs, and leopards, not to mention most of the other mammals including elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hyenas, jackals, hippos, rhinos, topi, hartebeest, gazelles, and impalas. Also 294 species of birds including the hoopoe, secretarybird, Kori bustard, love birds, and grey crowned crane.
Ombeni always looked after our safety and comfort. He has a great sense of humor and was generous with his time. I give Easy Travel (Voice) and Ombeni my highest recommendations. The entire experience totally exceeded my expectations. It was the trip of a lifetime!!

Amazing dream safari experience
I went on a 10-day northern Tanzania safari with my husband and four of our friends to begin my retirement. It was the trip of a lifetime. Voice helped us plan the trip. She was very patient, kind, and super responsive to our numerous requests as we planned our dream safari. We were so fortunate to get the best guide, Ombeni, who was knowledgeable, friendly, could “smell” where the animals were, and was a safe driver on the challenging roads. He shared lots of information about wildlife, culture, and nature. Ombeni helped us see every animal we hoped for and got us fabulous views and photos. We also saw about 300 species of birds. All the arrangements of the trip went smoothly. They took care of everything. Our lodging and food were excellent. The safari far exceeded my expectations and hopes. I highly recommend Easy Travel, Voice, and Ombeni for a dream Tanzanian safari.

Easy Travel exceeded our expectations from start to finish.
Easy Travel exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Planning the trip with Sakina was thorough and efficient.
She was patient and professional with all of our questions and helped us adapt the itinerary to our needs and budget.. During the trip Sakina was
constantly available within in moments via what's ap to assist with adjustments to flights, drivers, questions and even getting a doctor to assist with medical questions. Our guide, Musa, was phenomenal he had over 20 years experience guiding and seemed to know the secret places to take us away from crowds to see the big five, the ugly five and so much more! He taught us swahili, traditional songs and
so much about the wildlife and people ofTanzania all while driving in some challenging situations.
We always felt safe with him behind the wheel.
He gave us time to take pictures or simply admire the scenery but also kept to our itinerary and rushed to take us to spots where there were special sightings. Musa was a guide of many talents, including troubleshooter and mechanic. When our car was showing some need for preventive mainitenance he was able to get assistance in a remote Masai village so that it didn't effect our schedule and only added to the adventure!
In addition to 10 days of Safari with stays
at the Tortillas camp, we had five days of snorkeling on Mafia Island and one night in Zanzibar. Easy Travel definitely made our Tanzania Adventure easy !! Would highly recommend Easy Travel, Sakina and Musa to all!

Amazing Honeymoon Safari
We had an amazing honeymoon experience in Ngorongoro (Ndutu), the Serengeti and in the Ngorongoro Crater. We were fortunate to have seen 2 leopards on our first game drive in Ndutu and topped it off with 3 Black Rhino sightings on our last day finishing off the Big 5 along with many others. Our guide Anin was absolutely fantastic we learned so much from him and felt privileged to have had him as our safari guided. He is extremely knowledgeable, passionate and a skilled driver. Thank you Easy Travel and thank you Anin.
