Dealing with Alex online and meeting Afra as our tourguide is like a breath of fresh air.
Im such a perfectionist when it comes to booking and dealing with people. Difficult i am not but i make sure everything is arrange according to plan. Alex made it so easy for me. I have been checking online for several options just to get the best deals and Usambara didn't fail! All my queries and request were answered and granted seamlessly! I love how personalized yet professional they deal with clients. We had the best vacation and safari experience ever and I highly recommend Usambara! Kudos to you guys!

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!

Excellent 14-day safari service in the south of Tanzania!
In Dar Es Salaam we got in touch with Alex Shembago of Usambara Expeditions and asked for a two week wilderness safari in the south of Tansania with budget accomodation. The route was Dar-Selous-Mikumi-Ruaha-Iringa-Udzungwa-Ifakara-Dar including our preferences. Alex wanted to make sure that everything fits our expectations and offered us to get in touch with the driver and the car the day before departure. Driver guide Paul was a charming guy with very good driving skills either on road (calm, no risks, attention) or during game drives (animal spotting, elefant behaviour vs. car, offroad driving, car maintenance). As the journey started chef Said joined us and prepared delicious meals every day. He also adressed our wishes for traditional Tansanian foods. Paul and Said were always on time and very helpful. All accomodations were double rooms in bungalows or hotels with bathroom and were nice.

Great landscape and local life
Had a great time and got interesting knowledge about the surrounding nature and local livelihood. The guides were nice and their service excellent.
