I just had an incredible experience and I highly recommend it. The guide, Fisso, was incredible, very professional and kind, a perfect guide.
As for the chef, Issa, a 10/10 chef, the organization and the scenery were incredible, the service was perfect, and I'm telling you, it's more than worth it. Go for it.

Wonderful
I was fortunate enough to have an absolutely exceptional safari experience. Our guide, Fisso, was remarkably kind and professional. Always smiling and attentive, he introduced us to all the animals with passion and precision. I recommend him without hesitation!
The food was also perfect: Chef Issa is a true culinary master, and every meal was a delight. The accommodation, meanwhile, combined comfort and quality, making the stay even more enjoyable.
In short, this safari will remain etched in my memory as the best experience of my life.

Amazing safari experience with Cubs Expeditions
We just came back from a 5-day budget group safari in Tanzania with Cubs Expedition, and it was amazing and unforgettable. Our trip included Tarangire, Serengeti East, Center and North (where we were lucky enough to see the Great Migration – absolutely breathtaking!) - sleeping 2 nights at Seronera - and the Ngorongoro Crater.
After asking for several offers from different companies, and reading a lot about the companies on internet, Trip Advisor, and SafariBookings website, we've decided to make our group safari with Cubs Expeditions, which is a reliable company. Being in contact with Humphrey has always been easy and stress-free. He always answered to our messages very quickly and at any time, be it via E-mail or WhatsApp, which gave us a lot of confidence and helped us to organize everything for our trip.
Our guide Said was fantastic – always helpful, very knowledgeable about the animals, nature, and local culture. He really made every day special, making all efforts to ensure we could spot, among others, the Big 5, as well as the wildbeests and zebras crossing the Mara River - both activities successful. Moreover, he organized for us a visit to a Masai community, which was a great and full of culture experience, too.
We also want to thank our chef Moses, who cooked tasty, fresh, and different meals every day, even out in the wild. The quality and care in every meal were far beyond what we expected.
The Cubs Expedition team was also super reliable: when our flight changed and we arrived much later at the more distant Kilimanjaro airport, they still arranged the transfer perfectly and greeted us with a smile.
A few extra tips for future travelers:
* If you are coming from Europe: We recommend paying the rest amount in US dollars instead of Euros, because the exchange rate is usually better. So, try to organize dollars in your home country, and bring them with you.
* Remember that, since this is a group safari, some people in the car might be from another agency, but that’s really not a problem for us – it all works smoothly.
I can truly recommend Cubs Expedition to anyone wanting to enjoy a true safari adventure. Thank you Humphrey, Said, Moses, and the whole Cubs Expeditions team for giving us memories that will last forever!

Excellent experience from excellent team
I would like to thank Humphrey on behalf of myself and all my family for hosting us.
The team was extremely professional and kind. We felt safe and enjoyed a combination of deep understanding of respect to hospitality and being professional at the same time. Eli is super guide with real passion to sharing his knowledge and guided us safely to the best sites in a very smart way. Khaled spoiled us with his cooking and always kept saying yes with a smile to anything we asked for.
Moreover, I will personally recommend all my friends to use their
services.

Amazing, Polite, and always on time.
Wat een geweldige ervaring! Vanaf het eerste moment tot de laatste minuut waren we onder de indruk. De natuur, de dieren, de uitzichten – alles was adembenemend. We hebben nog nooit zoiets meegemaakt en zullen deze safari nooit vergeten. Een absolute aanrader voor iedereen die een onvergetelijk avontuur wil beleven.

Highly recomended
My wife and I went on a safari with Cubs Expedition. I can say we had a great time. From the moment we made our request, Humphrey answered all our questions and customized our offer, including transfers and accommodations in Arusha before and after the safari. We did the 3-night, 4-day camping safari with Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire. The experience was magnificent, and our guide, Eli, was incredibly good and friendly. He answered all our questions and was incredibly helpful, even with issues that weren't related to the safari. Highly recommended!

But the thing we loved the most was the time spent with our guide Eliis, really the best guide you could ever find. A kind, helpful and funny guy, Who showed us Amazing landscapes and animals always with his professionalism, passion and smile. According to the magnific experience we had, if you have to choose a guide, i recommend you Eliis.

Best tour operator
This safari was truly one of the best trips I've ever taken! Everything was exceptionally well-organized from start to finish.
From the very beginning, Humphrey was incredibly helpful always available to answer my questions, both before and after the trip. Hudhaifa took great care of us during the airport transfers and accommodation; he was kind, punctual, and made sure everything ran smoothly.
Out of the six quotes I received for a 6-day safari (including one night of accommodation before and one after the safari), they offered by far the best deal and the service exceeded all expectations!
Our guide and driver, Francis, was fantastic knowledgeable, friendly, and skilled at getting us up close to the animals without disturbing them. And Joshua, our chef, kept us well-fed with delicious meals every day. Together, they made the trip truly unforgettable.
We had an amazing time and saw an incredible variety of animals many of them from up close! I highly recommend this company if you're looking for a memorable and well-managed safari adventure.

A last-minute safari made unforgettable by our skilled guide Samwel and incredible Chef Yusuph
Since we booked so late the team made some special arrangements and we were able to join a 3 person safari with Cubs Expeditions that was already doing their 2nd day. Our group of 5 headed to Serengeti for a night, then to Ngorongoro for a night, and then Mto Wa Mbu for a night, which is where the 3 other passengers wrapped up their safari. We then finished our safari the next day as a group of 2 at Tarangire. Very thankful they made it all happen so fast and we were able to do a safari!
Our guide, Samwel was a master of the infamous Land Cruiser that took us around for the next 4 days. Samwel skillfully navigated around the parks to find lions, cheetahs, elephants, rhinos, hyenas, herds of wildebeest and zebras, and so many other animals, trees, and plants. It’s unbelievable that we saw big cats every day! We really enjoyed asking Samwel questions, and he always had a detailed answer every time. Samwel was great at pointing out all the new animals and plants during the game drives and would list out facts, explain how other animals and plants depended on each other, and tell some fun related stories about what we were looking at. We loved hearing about his life in Tanzania, learning about his favorite animal (elephant), and learning about the local people in each region. Everything ran on schedule and we never ran late or lost time doing game drives. Samwel even got stung by a bee in Tarangire and he kept going without any complaints. Unstoppable.
Our chef, Yusuph was incredible! The first thing you will notice is the craftsmanship in his cooking specifically the variety of the food he prepares for breakfast, lunch, dinner, the depth of the flavors, and the presentation. Each day we had a different menu for each meal, which included a mix of local Tanzania food, international, and a fusion of both. My favorite was ugali, shawarma wrap, caramelized banana, tomato relish pizza, pepper steak, fresh vegetables with various sauces, avocado fruit salad (matunda na parachichi), and crepes. We learned that he is currently learning to master pastries, which was evident in the breakfasts and the various baked items and desserts prepared for dinner.
We look forward to driving with Samwel again and eating the new recipes that Yusuph cooks up in the future. Thank you so much for an unforgettably safari.
