Great Safari!
We used Usambara for a safari in Selous national park in Tanzania. They proved to be very professional from start to end, Alex very responsive to dealing with our requests via email when we first contacted them and then always answering our enquiries. They picked us up from the hotel on time and the safari followed the agreed pattern. Our guide, Afra, was fantastic and very knowledgeable. He knew where to look for the various animals, had great vision to spot them, went off-road when needed to, great driving and fantastic spirit, funny and friendly all the way through our 4-days.
I would strongly recommend booking with these guys.

marvellous
I've been to Mikuni National Park on december with Usambara Expeditions, three days and two nights: marvellous landscape, beautiful accomodation and good food.
I saw many animals : elephants, zebra, lions, giraffe, hippo and many others.
Our guide, Afra, is a special person , very prepared on every question.
He explained every thing about animals'life.
It was my first time in safari and I'm very happy have chosen Usambara Expeditions.
I advice this agency sincerely.
Thank you very much Alex and Afra for this beautiful experience.
I hope see you again!

excellent
I went to Mikuni National Park in December with a friend.
Our first time to safari. Three days and two nights with Usambara Expeditions.
Fabulous park where we saw many animals, our excellent accommodation in cottages and excellent our guide Afra. Prepared to our every question, explained everything about the animals and their living.
I was enchanted by the landscape and more than satisfied by Usambara with which I hope to organize another safari.
I advise everyone to contact Usambara Expeditions for safari and ask alex have Afra as a guide, you will not regret and don't forget .... magical!
Thank you very much Afra and Alex!

A customized trip with good price
We arribed in Tanzania and we knew what we wanted to do, but we did not contract any agency from Spain because it was too expensive.
So we found Usambara Expeditions, we explained them the trip we wanted. It was a little bit special, because we were 5 people in the group and some of us wanted to climb the meru and some not. But we explained them everything and they planned what we wanted and the price was good (if we compared the prices people was giving us in through internet).
We wanted a low cost trip and we did not need any luxury, and the trip was like this! no luxuries! But it was what we were expecting! they were with us all the moments!

Our guide, Said, the best
The guide, Said, was really the one who made this experience perfect, we felt very safe and cared for by him, he is also a great explorer of the parks, he has an incredible intuition to find animals and he never gets tired. As for the accommodations and the food, sometimes very good and other times not so much, but I understand that is normal.

An amazing safari experience
This safari was a memorable experience. We had the chance to live in the middle of nowhere in a traditional camp, surrounded by forest, pretty close to the river and with a bunch of babbons in the trees around us. The food in the camp was decent, nothing fancy but good. There was even a traditional swimming pool which was unexpected so we took full advantage of it.
Said is the best safari guide you could get. Very friendly, he speaks very good english and it's obvious that he really loves what he does. He is very knowledgeable about the plants, the animals etc. He took us with the safari jeep literally everywhere, in places that we didn't even imagine we can go. We were able to see: lions, zebras, giraffes, warthogs, elephants, a lot of monkeys and birds (this was the 2nd day of the safari). 1st day was on the river and we were able to see the crocodiles and a lot of hippos.
It was an amazing experience!
