Excellent operator, will go with them again next time.
5/5

The tour guides were excellent in educating us on the history, culture, and wildlife. They were a joy to spend time with, even outside of the safari times. The team repeatedly went above and beyond while exceeding expectations. As a highly reliable group I look forward to touring with them again.

Professional and exciting experience
5/5

I really loved the enthusiasm and the whole experience with the safari. We got to see the big five and got to know a lot about the animals in Tanzania. The communication with the guides were very good, and we were very happy with the activities, food and company. The people were reliable and I recommend everyone to have the safari tour with Utukufu Travels and Adventures.

An Excellent Safari Experience
5/5

I had a wonderful safari with Exaudy of Utukufu Travels and Adventures. Being my second safari, I was unsure if it could be better than the first, but it far exceeded.

Exaudy, and his drivers/guides, extensive knowledge of the African animals and countryside ensured that we had many fantastic sightings and up close views of the animals! Within the first couple of days we got to see the Big 5!

The unique cultural experiences Exaudy incuded only added to the enjoyment of the trip. He ensured that each and every one in the group got to experience a truly exciting trip.

The accommodations were comfortable, the food was good, and the drivers were amazing in their ability to navigate bad roads with care. I especially appreciated their immediate assistance to another tour group's breakdown we passed in the middle of no where. 

After spending 8 days with Exaudy and his team we were all sad to be leaving our new found friends. They were very professional, but also kind and pleasant to travel with. We had so much fun together!

I highly recommend Utukufu Travels for a high-quality and rewarding safari experience! I hope to one day do another safari with Exaudy.

A truly outstanding and memorable safari for 3 generations of our family
5/5

3 generations of our family traveled to Tanzania to help our mother (who turned 88 on the first day of the trip) fulfill a lifelong dream of seeing the great migration in the Serengeti. The service, attention, caring and professionalism shown by Exaudy and his staff was truly exceptional. From the care given to our mother to the professional guiding exhibited during the game drives, this was truly an unforgettable vacation with an outstanding company. The accommodations were wonderful, the food delicious, the vehicles comfortable, and the guiding expert. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company!

Cool guy👌
5/5

Exaudi has a «proactive» personality, he gets things sorted! For example on tve bicycle trip I saw an ebony statue which I wanted to buy. The statue was not fully finished, but I made an agreement to pay there, and then they would bring it the day before my flight, in another city almost 8h away. They kept their honourable promise, but either way I was happy to have Exaudi as a contact. Also Exaudi is really funny and has a lot of knowledge. Had a lot of fun!

**Excellent African Safari Experience**

This African safari was excellent and one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. It was my second safari, and it exceeded expectations. The tour guide was highly attentive, knowledgeable, and tailored the experience to each guest’s needs. Accommodations were comfortable, the food was good, and the entertainment was engaging. The drivers were outstanding, navigating very bumpy roads with care and professionalism to ensure comfort. Cultural experiences added great depth to the journey. We were fortunate to see the Big Five within just two days and experienced a wide variety of beautiful terrain. This was a truly enjoyable and unforgettable trip.

5/5

This was an amazing, unforgettable experience. Guide/drivers were all very easy to talk to and get along with. The service provided was phenomenal, they went above and beyond to make every aspect enjoyable. It is well worth every cent. I trusted they knew what was best for us and had our best interest in mind and they definitely did! We saw so many animals!

Very knowledgeable and professional.
5/5

Utukufu worked with me for many months tailoring a nine day safari for a group of 12. They did not disappoint!! Arrived in Arusha, a day in Lake Manyara, a day in Ngorongoro crater, 3 days in Ndutu, and 2 days in Serengeti. Accommodations were great, the drivers were great, and Exaudy, the owner was great. I’m planning to bring a group back next year. He has my business again!!

Amazing hands on operator always making sure your trip is the best it can be
5/5

Exaudy looked after us for 8 days and we had an amazing experience. He communicates constantly and clearly. He makes sure you are safe and having an amazing experience. He cares for everyone on the trip and goes every extra mile - it was a milestone birthday for my wife and he personally delivered cake and champagne in the Serengeti! Can’t say enough good things.
