Fantastic
We had a great experience with Cubs expeditions from start to finish.
We booked directly through the company after finding them online. Humphrey was pleasant, responsive and helped us create a great personalized itinerary.
The tour itself was amazing and incorporated all the best parts of Tanzania. We were able to see the “big 5” during our trip.
Our guide Chalice and chef Halidy were amazing at their jobs and very pleasant to be around during the week. They were very attentive and made sure we always had what we needed. We cannot say enough good things about them.
If we are lucky enough to visit Tanzania again we will be sure to make Cubs our first call.

An Unforgettable 4-Day Tanzania Safari Experience
My wife and I just got back from a 4 day safari across three of Tanzania's national parks, and we're still buzzing about it. We managed to see all of the Big Five, which made the whole trip feel like a real once in a lifetime experience.
We booked a personal tour rather than joining a group, and it made a huge difference. Having our own guide meant we could set our own pace each day and go after what we actually wanted to see, without waiting on anyone else's preferences. If you're planning a safari in Tanzania, this is the way to do it.
One of the best parts was where we stayed, including a campsite in the Serengeti where animals wander freely around camp at night. It's a strange feeling at first, but a brilliant one, and something you don't easily forget.
Our guide David deserves a special mention here. He was with us for the entire trip and clearly knew the parks inside out. He had a knack for spotting animals that were miles off or half hidden in the grass, and we honestly don't know how he did it. He never rushed us, adjusted our start and finish times without complaint, and kept pushing to find us more sightings even when we'd already seen plenty. He put in far more effort than we expected, and the trip wouldn't have been the same without him.
We should also thank Humphrey, who helped put the trip together in the first place, and Hudhaifahassan, who gave us our initial briefing and picked us up from the airport.
All in all, a fantastic, well run safari. Five stars, and an extra mention for David.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An absolutely unforgettable safari with Cubs Expeditions! 🦁🐘🐆
We have just returned from an incredible 4-day, 3-night safari in Tanzania, visiting Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
From the very beginning, everything was seamlessly organised by Humphrey, who was brilliant at answering all of our questions quickly and giving us helpful tips and advice before we even arrived in Tanzania. The communication and organisation were excellent, which made everything feel completely stress-free.
The accommodation throughout the trip was beautiful, and the food was also really lovely. Everything had been thought about and planned so well.
Our initial briefing and airport collection with Hudhaifahassan was also fantastic. He explained everything clearly, made sure we knew exactly what to expect and got our trip off to a brilliant start.
But the person who truly made our safari something incredibly special was our guide, David. 🦁❤️
David was absolutely outstanding. He went above and beyond every single day to make sure we had the best possible experience. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals, the parks and the environment, and his passion for what he does really came through.
Thanks to David, we were lucky enough to see the Big Five several times, as well as so many other incredible animals and unforgettable moments. He somehow always seemed to know exactly where to go and where to look, and his determination to make sure we experienced everything was amazing.
But what really stood out was how well he looked after us. David constantly made sure we were safe, comfortable, fed, watered and enjoying ourselves. Nothing was ever too much trouble. He was friendly, funny, incredibly easy to get along with and made the whole experience feel so relaxed.
By the end of the safari, it honestly felt like we had known David for years — he became part of our little safari family. 🥹
We genuinely cannot thank him enough. A fantastic guide, a lovely person and an absolute credit to Cubs Expeditions. If you book with Cubs Expeditions, I would highly recommend asking for David — he really is exceptional and made our trip everything we hoped for and so much more.
A huge thank you to Humphrey, Hudhaifahassan and especially David for giving us memories that we will never forget.
Cubs Expeditions — highly, highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Professionally run operation with excellent guides, reliable vehicles, good food and great service
I enjoyed my 5D/4N expedition to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara National Parks. The tour started and ended on time and followed the planned itinerary. I saw the big 6 (the big 5 + cheetahs). The entire expedition was professionally run. The guide Nickson was excellent. He did a great job with helping us maximize our game viewing. He drove safely, had an uncanny knack for spotting game and bird life. Our chef, Elia did a great job serving us delicious and healthy meals. The lodges where we stayed for 2 nights of the 4 were clean and close to the parks. We also camped in tents, one night each at Serengeti and Ngorongoro (at the crater rim). The campgrounds were excellent and it was a pleasure to hear lions roaring in the night and hippos and hyenas.
Overall the experience was 5/5 stars. No complaints and highly recommended.
