Flawless, unforgettable Namibia adventure with a fantastic team. Highly recommended!
My brother and I just returned (last month) from a 14-day Namibia Tour in August, and it was truly outstanding. We are both passionate about wildlife and nature, and this was not our first safari, so our expectations were already high. Namibia, and the experience as a whole with Kubwa Five Safaris, delivered more than what we could have expected.
Communication and organization were impecable. Sylvia, who arranged our entire trip, was responsive and attentive to detail. Every transfer, activity, and accommodation ran as planned: so reliability was 100%.
Our guide, Terence, was simply fantastic. Funny, friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Where our schedule had free time, he made excellent recommendations for additional activities, such as a visit to a cheetah rehabilitation center and a crocodile farm.
The tour itself was a dream for wildlife lovers. Seeing black rhinos in Etosha National Park was an incredible experience, and the game drives with the lodge's own guides at Mushara Bush Camp were among the highlights of the trip. Sossusvlei was another favorite, with its towering red dunes and unreal desert landscapes. At Lodge Damaraland, we loved the stay and especially the desert elephant tracking.
The accommodations were a major plus. Mount Etjo Safari Lodge stood out for its sophisticated, beautiful accommodations, and the rhino trekking experience there was extraordinary – to find white rhinos. Mushara Bush Camp was wonderful too, and across the whole trip the food was excellent and the stays exceeded our expectations.
For the quality of the guiding, lodges, and experiences, we felt this was excellent value for money. We cannot recommend Kubwa Five Safaris highly enough. Thank you to Sylvia, Terence, and the whole team for an incredible adventure. We hope to travel with you again
Creates unforgettable experiences with thoughtful touches.
Kubwa 5 helped us craft the most amazing 12-day safari through Kenya and Tanzania. Betty put together the most incredible mix of accommodations, experiences, a perfectly paced itinerary, and thoughtful details, making it the most spectacular trip I have ever been on. If you are at all on the fence, do it! You will not be disappointed!
Excellent
Joseph Aliganyira of Kubwa Five Safaris delivered an exceptional training on Strategic Marketing Tips for Tour Operators. The session was insightful, practical, and tailored to the realities of today's tourism industry. Joseph shared actionable strategies on market positioning, digital marketing, customer engagement, and sustainable business growth, backed by real-world examples and years of industry experience.
His engaging presentation style and deep understanding of the tourism sector made the session highly valuable for both new and experienced tour operators. I highly recommend Joseph as a trainer and mentor to anyone looking to strengthen their marketing strategy and grow a successful tour business.
Fantastic service
We had such an amazing time in Uganda.
Our guide (Mustafah) was so knowledgeable, friendly, funny and nothing was too much trouble.
I was apprehensive when initially booking the safari with regards to send money to a foreign country but my mind was put at ease with the professionalism of everyone at Kubwa 5.
If you’re lucky enough to get Mustafah then please say hi from us.
A Thrilling, Unforgettable Experience!!
My wife and I are from the St Louis area in the USA. We had never visited Africa, so I carefully researched safari providers. After looking through numerous itineraries we settled on Kubwa Five’s “THRILLING 18 Day Safari”.
The itinerary takes you through the Big Three East Africa countries, Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, to see not only The Big Five and Great Migration, but also Chimpanzee and Gorilla trekking. It includes visits to five national parks in Uganda, four in Kenya, including the Masia Mara, where we saw the Great Migration, as well as three parks in Tanzania, where we saw the breath-taking Serengeti.
When Kubwa Five said this would be a THRILLING safari they did not disappoint, it was THRILLING indeed. My wife is a photographer and took over 20,000 photos during this 18-day odyssey that brought us face to face with a silver back gorilla and his family, a large family of Chimpanzees (so close they rub against you as they pass by), numerous lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, warthogs, buffaloes, birds, crocodiles, hyenas, you name it. You are thoroughly immersed in nature, more than you can ever be in any zoo, no walls, no plexiglass, no bars, no nothing, just you and these amazing animals in THEIR natural environment, you are the outsider (this will ruin your visit to any zoo, forever…sorry).
In addition to the animals, you will be given the opportunity to participate in the cultures of East Africa, including visits to pygmy and Masia villages, as well as day to day life in a small village in Uganda. I encourage you to embrace this aspect of the tour, it will change you!
From the start, Betty Alum, in the front office, was easy to deal with and very responsive to all of our questions and concerns. At one point, we considered skipping Uganda altogether due to the Ebola “scare” (which is all it was), but Betty reassured us (correctly) that they would take good care of us AND THEY DID! Getting through customs both in Africa and back into the USA was a snap, thanks to the pre-coordination of Kubwa Five and their outstanding guides.
Speaking of the guides, they were very knowledgeable and committed to giving you a first-class experience. Samuel Kansansula in Uganda had twelve years of experience as a guide and it showed, everything was thoroughly explained and we felt well taken care of under Samuel’s guidance. In the Masia Mara, our guide brought along a Masia tribesman who showed us all the best spots in this amazing park as the Great Migration unfolded in front of your eyes. In Tanzania, Ayubu Luhala, who has 15 years of experience guiding tourists in the Serengeti, did an outstanding job of getting us to those unique, little-known places to see some mind-blowing wildlife and an unforgettable sunrise over the Serengeti right out of The Lion King.
If you are looking for a great, well organized Safari experience, look no further than Kubwa Five!
