Amazing experience with reliable and attentive personell
5/5

The safari was amazing! We booked an offer for a 4-day safari (6 days including arrival and departure in Arusha) by Oasis Wildlife Tours, which was pooled with other operators due to lower demand in the off-season. Pick-up and drop-off from and to the airport worked perfectly. Our driver was very kind and also flexible regarding the arrival and departure times of our flights.
After the arrival day with a city tour, our four-day safari started. Our driver Alli from Simbaland Magic Tours did an amazing job. He knew exactly where to look for the different animals, where to stop to get great pictures, and how to handle the rough terrain without ever getting lost on the endless small paths. Thanks to him, we not only saw all of the Big Five animals but also giraffes, zebras, gnus, ostriches, baboons, different antelopes, flamingos, eagles, all of the “Ugly Five,” and many more. Many of them could be seen from a very close distance, but our driver allways respected their space to not disturb them.
The accommodations during the trip were always appropriate. During the four safari days, three meals per day were provided by our chef Joseph, who was traveling with us from camp to camp and cooking for our group. The food was very good, and he always tried to teach us a few words in Swahili. He also allways provided a vegetarian option for us.

Everything was taken care of, the experience was great, we got far more than we expected, and we would definitely recommend it.

Couldn't have any better operator for our safari.
5/5

Don't know where to start first. From the planning and quote to the actual safari tour, everything was perfectly organized and straightforward. Humphrey provided us with an excellent offer and a well-planned tour. For our four-day trip, we were offered the most beautiful spots around the Serengeti and the most memorable accommodations. We were incredibly lucky, not only to have seen the Big Five after just two days, but also to have encountered a large number of rare animals throughout the entire tour. We can proudly look back on two leopards, eight cheetahs, three rhinos, and 52 lions. From the Great Migration to big cats feasting on their prey and the breathtaking view of the Ngorongoro Crater, this safari will stay with us for a long time. But the absolute highlight of the entire tour was our operator, Erick. With his expertise, his dedication to showing us the best spots, and his informative and warm personality, he made our safari an unforgettable experience. Anyone booking a safari with Cups Expeditions in the future should take the opportunity to inquire about Erick's availability. You won't be disappointed.

Amazing Safari, amazing team
5/5

We really wanted to go on safari in Africa, and this was the best choice. I don't know how to thank everyone.
The organisation was PERFECT, everything was planned down to the last detail. Competent and helpful professionals. They were all fundamental to the success of the safari. We were looked after from start to finish, and by start I mean right from the booking and organisation stage.
Choose Cubs and you won't regret it.

Perfect for seeing Tanzania
5/5

The experience was perfectly fitting the price of the travel.
We had staff focused on making our experience unforgettable.
The accomodations were all right.
Really appreciated the camp sites where you really live with the animals.
We slept with a huge buffalo eating grass 3 meters away from our tent and we arrived Simba's campsite with an Elefant in the middle of the tents.

Great safari and a fantastic guide!
5/5

The safari was great. The pick-up went smoothly. The group was great. There were six guests in total. They were able to see all the animals. Dennis, our tour guide, took great care of us and explained a lot. The food on the safari was good. For me as a vegetarian, it was a bit monotonous, as I often got the same thing. But as a non-meat eater, I'm used to that. Only the breakfast at the Venice Hotel in Arusha was very meager.
