Safari
We did the 20 day Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. (Luxury)
And the reason why i give 4 stars and not 5 is because i think some of the Hotels could be better curated. Specifically the ones in Kenya and Bwindi (Uganda), Although they were good located inside the parks, they were a bit old. Not that they were cheap hotels, they must have been luxury at some point and they still hold the price tag. But i think it is worth exploring other smaller hotel/lodges with a boutique feel "understated luxury”, more personal. You can arrange all this with Joseph, because he wants to give you the best trip possible, i am sure of that.
The drivers/guides were professional and we got along with all 3 of them. Since the longest time was spent In Uganda with Samuel, we were sad to say goodbye to him at the airport after 12 days together. Samuel is a responsible and safe driver, polite, good sense of humor, a bit shy and a great smile.
Some of the hotels are upper mid range as specified on the list from the agency, and i was told that they choose this ones (instead of the luxury option) because of location. This is true for the 1st lodge in Murchinson National park. We only wish we would have had a little time to sit down and see the sunset over the river. The game drives can be as long or short as you want so one of the afternoons make sure you are back before sunset and take 20 minutes to sit outside and enjoy the views.
In Kibale, Uganda our tip would be to do the community walk (Note that the community walk can be as short or long as you want.) that afternoon instead of the next day after the chimpanzee trek. The reason being, that after the chimpanzee trek you can drive straight to Kyaninga and arrive there early. This is a beautiful hotel where you can do a few activities at the lodge….and we thought the setting is spectacular (they will also do your laundry complimentary so make sure you give it straight away as you arrive) We manage to be there by 13:00 and jump in the lake for a short swim, then we did a walk around the crater.

A very memorable trip
It is a very memorable trip for us and I think Joseph has us hooked to safaris. In fact we want to plan another safari trip with Kubwa Five Safaris. Our guide Joseph is very knowledgeable and experienced so we managed to learn the names of the variety of animals we spotted on our journey. Joseph also kept us safe and took good care of us during the trip.
We will definitely be back in Africa and book with this company.

Trip of a lifetime!
Our first trip to sub-Saharan Africa was a once in a lifetime experience. We took a 20 day trip through Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania.
Uganda provided great diversity, with some wonderful big game experiences as well as unique experiences gorilla trekking (very tough effort but worth every bit) and chimpanzees (a couple notches down the toughness scale, but still a sweat inducing effort). We were able to cap it off with a wonderful stay on the Nile river for two nights with enough white water to provide some wonderful sleeping sounds!
We then flew to Kenya. Starting first thing the next morning, we headed towards Maasai Mara for big game, especially big cats! We had a visit with a Maasai tribe, quite an experience. Many spectacular views, lots of hippos and pink flamingos than anyone could have thought existed.
We finished with a drive to Tanzania to experience the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater. Lots of lions, wildebeest, zebras, and giraffe.
Our personal guide for Uganda was very knowledgeable and the head of the company made sure we had every amenity available to us. Our guides in Kenya and Tanzania were just as knowledgeable and took great care of us as well.
All in all, a great experience!!!

Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, oh my!
First of all, I must say that I was very impressed with the communication and prompt response to all of our questions as we prepared for this adventure. The level of information we were provided left no questions unanswered.
This was more than just a safari, which I envisioned as sitting in a car and driving around, spotting animals all day. In addition to driving around, we rode bikes, took boat rides, ziplined, hiked, and enjoyed a balloon ride. It was an adventure of a lifetime!
We visited Uganda (chimpanzees and gorillas!), Kenya, and Tanzania and all of our guides were incredible. They were well-informed, kind, and put up with my sarcasm and my husband's terrible jokes. They were also good listeners to our needs. I particularly wanted to see cats in Tanzania and our guide spent the day making sure that I was not disappointed.
We chose the "luxury" option and I am still thinking back to several of our lodges and how breathtaking they were.
I would absolutely recommend KubwaFive Safaris to anyone. It's time to start filling the Africa Trip jar again!

An outstanding tour and travel company in Africa
Kubwa Five Safaris is a reliable source for all your travel needs; not only they being a reliable source but they provide excellent travel services as well.
We booked with them for a trip to Queen Elizabeth National Park, and we had a trip of a lifetime.
Activities were well arranged and we greatly every activity. The game drives and boat ride were outstanding; I saw animals that I had never seen.
We really like the hotel booked for us, Engiri safari lodge was great hotel with great customer care, and the meals were delicious. The lodge is in the middle of the park, and you get to see animals anytime passing by, elephants were grazing besides our lodge and one of the nights buffaloes grazed from the same place. I enjoyed seeing them grazing at a very close distance.
Thank you for an outstanding vacation to Queen Elizabeth National Park that you gave us.
We will book with you again in future; you guys are the best travel company in Uganda.
