Safari to Tanzania - including visit to Ruaha River Lodge
Amazing experience, and incredible customer service all through the entire process. I recommend Ubon Safari. They worked with our group to set up the perfect itinerary. The communication was clear, timely, and precise. And they delivered! The trip was fantastic.

Thoroughly planned & professional service
A sincere thanks to Ubon safari (Beena & Umang) for the throughly well planned safari experience for us. The entire experience right from landing to flying back has been exceptional without any glitches. All the properties suggested have been fab, the guide service during safari was gold standard. A truly memorable first Tanzania experience for us that has left us wanting for more. And can't wait to plan another trip soon. Thanks again.

Personalised and Professional Service
Thank you Umang and Beena for the wonderful trip you have coordinated for us. It has been a pleasure right from the start of the selection process down to our last day which we were sad about our trip ending, leaving the amazing Serengiti and the lovely properties you suggested to us. All of us have had a wonderful time here and will have memories forever. We will be posting the images of some astonishingly breathtaking pictures which we have taken during the Safaris and be rest assured we will also be your ambassadors spreading the word around. Thank you once again and hope to plan another safari soon.

familiy trip to tanzania
After crossing the country by tazara train , we needed to start our safari from mbeya. Umang made a excellent and custom-made organization for a trip to ruaha and selous responding exactly to our need. Lots of great nature and animals... We've seen everything and very close. I recommend also the breathtaking Sundown at Hilltop Lodge at Ruaha. Just silence and Africa...Experienced guides, nice lodges, adventure and each park offers it's own unique experience. And the southern curcuit is not crowded. Anyway, a great experience for me and a rally good time for us as a familiy...Thanks to Umang.

An amazing experience, a personal service that met every expectation , from the beach to the bush !
I chose to organise my trip to Tanzania through Ubon Safaris, after being recommended to them by a friend.
I was not disappointed. Directors Umang and Beena have a very hands on approach in creating an itinerary for your holiday using their wealth of experience of what the country has to offer.
I wanted to relax for a week before going on safari so Umang suggested a visit to Zanzibar which was amazing. I was met by someone at the airport and taken to a beautiful hotel in the centre of historic Stonetown , spending 2 days exploring this fastinating town before spending the rest of the week at a quiet beach retreat in the north of the Island. I was then ready for what the second part of my trip had in store.
Umang suggested , that as I had been on two safaris before that I found to be a little impersonal and over crowded , we should head to the Ruaha National Park and stay at Tandala Tented camp at the edge of the park. It was a revelation , since I think in all the game drives we did we only came across a couple of other vehicles a day , and our driver and guide knew exactly how to make the most of each days adventure.
Plenty of lions , leopards, cheetahs , elephants , hippos , and a ringside seat watching two female lionesses stalk and bring down a buffalo. Not to mention the biggest python I have ever seen, and that was just in one day !
The camp at Tandala was beautifully equipped and the food and the hosting from Dionysia and John was first class. We were able to watch dozens of elephants come into the camp to drink at the waterhole as we ate dinner. A glorious location, a brilliant holiday and and experience I won't forget in a hurry.
So if you are looking to visit this part of the world , give Umang and Beena a call and they can talk you through exactly how to get the best out of your holiday for the budget you have. Umang even picked me up from the airport and made the effort to make sure that every detail was covered. This is not just a business to them , they love showing other people the heart and soul of Africa that continues to captivate them both.

Ruaha national park, Tanzania
We had a great time out there in Ruaha national park. The game drives were absolutely amazing and the Tandala Camp awesome - especially the tents, the delicious food, the water hole and the gorgeous hosts.

An exceptional and reasonably priced safari experience
My son and I had an exceptional safari, which was frankly much more fun and interesting than I expected. Over six days and five nights, Tarangire--Serengeti--Ngorongoro provided many memorable sights and exceptional wildlife. We had our own guide, and were surprised that there were relatively few other guests at most of the lodges and camps (which were uniformly excellent). Internet connectivity was good at the resorts, but of course not available at the tented camp. Although it was technically the start of the rainy season, we did not have any rain. Highlights included observing the birth of a hippo, sighting three cheetahs and also a mother leopard and her cubs, watching two lions attack a herd of cape buffalo, seeing six rhinos at Ngorongoro (including two who crossed just in front of our Land Rover), and driving through the middle of the Great Migration and thousands of wildebeest. Umang was very reachable, and our guide Moses was excellent. We highly recommend UBonsafari.
