it was very nice.
we took the 3 days mikumi tour. Stayed at TanSwiss lodge.
Our Guide Nesto was very very talented, had a very good knowledge about the park and the animals, explained us everything in details, also showed everything from his books. and also a very good driver and guide.
he was always on time, always friendly and respectful.
we had a very great adventure and left with all the good memories.

The service and attention was perfect arranged. All pick-ups, meeting points were exact on time.
The team of Uhuru did a good job. We travelled with whole family and did book for the first time with a local travel organisation. Then you need to wait what your get. Well everything went perfect. The total program made by Uhuru Abdallah was good and all the pick-ups transfers were made exact on time !!
We stayed one week in Tanzania including 2.5 days safari in Mikumi park. The second week we stayed on Zanzibar

Excellent Safari to Mikuni National Park
We are VERY satisfied with the trip to Mikumi National Park and Angalia Luxuary Tented Camp. Our driver and guide Nestor was excellent, He was kind, positive, supportive, drove very well, and was very clever to find animals eg Lions ( we saw 15 in Three Days!), showed a great knowledge etc, We will especially recommend him for trips!
The Angalia Luxuary Tent Camp was also superb! A wonderful Place, very comfortale, good food and service.... Angalia can really be recommended!
Best wishes,
Ulla and Johnny Ludvigsson, Linköping, Sweden

3 days / 2 nights Mikumi - great first safari with Uhuru Travel & Tours
This was our very first safari. Mikumi NP and Uhuru Travel & Tours turned both out to be good choices for this purpose. We slightly modified the itinerary without having to pay extra for it - pick up at a city center hotel and drop off at the airport in time for our international flight back home. Mikumi NP offered everything we expected to see. One afternoon and one full day game drive provided enough time to explore the park.

so beautiful
It was a very good time in Mikumi national park, the driver/ Guide, called Davis, was a spezial man, he knows all about the Park and the animals. We saw soooooo much animals and at the end 5 lions, that was great! The Tan Swiss Longe was nice, good food and a nice bungalow. Only the lunch box from them wasn't so good...
We had a very nice safari and we would book again ...with the driver Davis

3 day Luxery Safari
Good communication. On time for everything. Guide was great and a pleasure when driving us around. There was a problem with the truck but he fixed it within a 15 minutes and we were back to looking for animals again. Would recommend this company for a future safari.

Average, not personal and providing misleading information.
Uhuru travels had given name and no. of person would be our guide and driver for 3 days. They changed the person without even informing us. It seemed Uhuru has sub contracted our trip to someone else. There was no personal contact. The driver himself did not know who he worked for.
Did not get value for money on this trip.

Posted on Oct 26, 2016Dear Abbas,
Thanks so much for your reviews though its also misleading to the other clients about Uhuru Travel. Why misleading? We did provide you will all the details of your safari to Mikumi. Unfortunately you show signs of problem on the mid way when having lunch the driver guide called me and inform me that you do not have any information of about your safari. Why did you agreed to pay safari and be ready to enjoy it? What convince you to pay if you did not have any information? Mr. Nestor was together with the other driver looked into your phone and the program was in your phone!! They were 2 Jeeps on that day and all were our Driver Guides. I am 100% sure you did enjoy your safari and everything went well. We appreciate your business to us.

Quality Safari Experience with Fantastic Value, and Great Customer Service
Right from the start I had high hopes for this operator be due to the reviews and I can say but that I was most definitely not disappointed.
The communication was excellent throughout. They were very quick to set my mind at ease at every stage. Definitely lived up to my expectations. Abdallah and Ubezi were very helpful, patient and very professional in all their dealings. We even popped in to see them at their office in Stone Town.
Payment was made via international bank transfer and went very smoothly.
The itenineary was adapted and changed every time we added something or changed something to the trip. And we made loads of changes. Thankfully, the team were at hand with their expert local knowledge and expertise to make things work. We even booked all of our transfers and flights through the agency too, all went without any issues.
The team also selected ideal accommodation for us, and ensured that it met our specification.
The Safari itself was great, our guide Abraham was very knowledgeable and ensured that we got to see and experience all we had hoped to. Our vehicle had an issue but he was able to get it up and running without any hiccups in 15 mins. All the meals provided on the trips were nice and added to the experience. We most definitely enjoyed our Safari, which consisted of the Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti. All parks/reserves were amazing.
All in all. I would most definitely reccomend Uhuru Travels for anyone thinking of Safari.
