Cuan planned and delivered an unforgettable African experience that exceeded expectations
We experienced 12 Safari days, in 3 different locations in Zambia, visited Victoria Falls and then moved on to Cape Town. Every aspect of the total experience far exceeded expectations.
All the Safari days provided unforgettable wildlife interactions. The 3 camps were great, and the scenery was spectacular.
The people, accommodation and food were all 6 star.
The guides were outstanding. They became our friends, on a very professional level, whilst passing on all their knowledge and experience.
The included tours in Cape Town targeted the 'must see locations" and was the perfect final section. That was capped off with a short visit to the Wine country before our return home
I congratulate Cuan and his whole team for providing my wife and I with the trip of a lifetime.

OUTSTANDING SERVICE AND PROFESSIONALISM!
We just returned from six weeks in Africa - three weeks in Zambia and three in South Africa - the land of our birth. It was sensational in EVERY way. Ubuntu organised our three extraordinary safaris in Zambia, air travel, tours, guides, accommodation and suggested many wonderful excursions for our four Australian friends who travelled with us in both Zambia and the Cape Province. There was not a single detail that was overlooked (and as Africans we know how difficult that is to organise in Africa!) - as 'older' travellers we were supported and always felt safe. Our guides were amazing men, informative and helpful. Our experience was one of wonder and awe - the animals were prolific and up close, in beautiful, peaceful surroundings away from others. The camps in Zambia were exquisite and the staff exceptional. The hotels in the Cape gave us the experience of staying with a favourite family in beautiful surroundings. We came home revitalised, healed and happy - and very, very grateful to Cuan and his Team for this Trip of a Lifetime. WELL DONE!!!
Thank you so much!! Sandra and Gerald Groom, NSW, Australia.

Cuan was superb and knew exactly what we wanted…… unbelievable

So impressive - have never had a more positive experience with a tour company or trip planner
I cannot speak highly enough about Ubuntu! I emailed enquiries to a number of operators and Paul rang me the next day. After 45 minutes on the phone ascertaining what I roughly was looking for and sharing his extensive personal experience of Southern Africa, he had a detailed proposal to me within 48 hours that despite a couple of minor tweaks was exactly what we were hoping for. Paul designed an itinerary that was varied, individualised and thoughtful.
It was the trip of a lifetime! Despite a good number of transfers, internal small flights and other arrangements it went without a hitch. All the tour operators and companies we dealt with were friendly, reliable and efficient leading to a stress free, fantastic experience. Our lodges and safari stays were all so different giving a broad range of environs, wildlife and surrounds. The standard of everything was first rate.
Throughout the entire process Paul was in communication with updates, always available for even the most silly of questions and so helpful. Ubuntu also have staff and contacts in Africa should you need help (we did not) which added a further layer of security and reassurance.
If there was a 6 star rating I would give it.

African Ubuntu Safaris gave us excellent advice and were very helpful snd supportive.
We had a wonderful trip organised by Cuan who took into account our interests. Everything went really well. We visited Kenya, Tanzania and the area around Victoria Falls including the Orduvai Gorge. The friendly African guides were fantastic and incredibly knowledgeable about animals, birds and culture. We came home with great photos and great memories.
Knowledgeable, considered and helpful.
We’ve had the most fantastic safari in Kenya and SW Tanzania celebrating two big personal milestones. Paul listened to what was important for us in the planning stage and made recommendations to meet our requirements. He was very flexible when I kept coming up with other areas or ideas as possibilities which we explored them.
The planning and working with someone who knows the territory is a must.
I am very happy to recommend African Ubuntu Safaris and would happily use them again if luckily enough to go on another safari.

The perfect people to organise a once in a lifetime adventure
Thank you, we had an absolutely amazing safari experience from start to finish. Everything was seamless – from the first enquiry through to the very last day, every detail was thoughtfully planned and executed. The itinerary was spectacular in every way: breathtaking landscapes, incredible wildlife encounters, beautiful and varied accomodation, and attentive staff who made us feel so well cared for.
We never had to worry about logistics or timing – everything just flowed perfectly, allowing us to relax and immerse ourselves fully in the adventure. It was beyond our expectations.
We can’t thank you enough for creating such an unforgettable journey.
Highly recommended to anyone wanting a truly world-class African safari.

The safari experience was seamlessly planned, carefully thought-out, and perfectly for our family.
We did our first safari with African Ubuntu Safaris based on a friend’s recommendation. From the first meeting with Cuan, I knew I made the right choice. He is very knowledgeable and understood very well what our needs are, and planed the trip in such a way that we experienced a variety of activities and accommodations style which are suited to our needs and budget. We had such an amazing time and we will certainly be returning to African Ubuntu again for our future safari trips!

Amazing, very responsive
We had a very short time frame to visit Africa, due to some work commitments. Cuan gave excellent advice that allowed us to see as much as we could in that short time. It was an amazing, dizzying fast and eclectic race through: Zimbabwe, Namibia, Botswana and South Africa. During the 12 days we had safaris by: boat, helicopter and car. All were impressive. The guides were fantastic- how do they see things??? The food and accommodation was wonderful. We did the camp out on the salt plains. I didnt enjoy the quad bikes- but they are not for everyone! Seeing the stars out there was well worth the trip. We were so spoilt in our river lodge and had a ball at the Okavango- our favourite place. We will be returning and we will be asking for Cuan’s assistance. We finished with a half day tour of Soweto- which i didnt expect to enjoy. I was surprised and of course there is a lot of confronting material there. However, the thing that made every place we went was the people. They were so lovely. So helpful- even places where i would expect a bit of angst- immigration- all smiley, helpful again. What a wonderful trip!

Ubuntu delivered a brilliant itinerary with flawless on-the-ground support.
Our experience with Ubuntu was outstanding. Paul and Cuan communicated brilliantly and designed a superb itinerary. Flawless on-the-ground service meant we could simply relax and enjoy every moment. They listened, understood, and delivered exactly what we wanted – the perfect blend of adventure, comfort, and peace of mind. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone visiting Africa who wants genuine local knowledge and flawless delivery. Ubuntu gave us the trip of a lifetime!
