Great experience with Uwanda Tours
5/5

Our Safari tour was amazing from start to finish. Our driver on the first day, Raphael, was really friendly and we had a great time going around the national park spotting different animals. Everyone else has also been really welcoming especially at the Selous Safari Lodge.

Efficient, reliable and knowledgeable
5/5

We booked a 3 day Safari with Uwanda Tours from Dar es Salaam to Nyerere National Park. Ole was our very knowledgeable guide/driver. They picked us from our accommodation which was very convenient. We started with a river boat safari which was a relaxing way to start our visit. Our next day started with a 12 hour Safari drive where we saw a lion, elephants, hippos, crocodiles, and plenty of giraffe, buffalo, wilderbeasts and antelope and many more. What was lovely was seeing the way the animals interacted with each other.
We were disappointed at not seeing more lions and the following day we went for another 6 hour Safari. Ole was determined not to let us down and we managed to find a pride of lions ready to hunt which was amazing to see as well as hyenas. We also did a night Safari with a ranger which added to the experience and saw some bush babies, hippos (out of the water) and a family of hyenas. We were kept informed daily by the tour company who were very punctual. I would 100% recommend Hassan and his team.

Everything you could hope for!
5/5

What an amazing experience! The Selous Safari Lodge was spectacular! Gorgeous rooms, lovely pool and great food... But the staff made it! From Maria at the front desk to all the other employees were kind, spoke English and went out of their way to make your stay. (Note they do not sell alcohol but will have it delivered 20 minutes from the nearby village if requested)

Martin and Poli made our trip one of a lifetime! They went out of their way to make sure we saw a wide variety of animals. Poli was a calm and respectful driver who would often point out animals or reposition the vehicle for a better view. Martins kind, gentle and warm laugh brought so much joy as he shared his vast knowledge of the plants and animals!

Fantastic safari!
5/5

Uwanda is a very reliable company. We took the 4-Day Flying package from Zanzibar to Nyerere National Park and we couldn’t be happier.
Our guide Emily and our driver Mkali made the safari extra special. We also enjoyed swimming in the hot spring. Truly fantastic, thank you!

Emily and Awamu Are really preparated and kind person
5/5

The safari is really excellent, it's worth all the money spent, We were able to see all the animals.
The lodges are very nice and comfortable.

The only thing, the trip by car and ferry is very challenging. It's worth taking the 2 planes

Everyone has been so helpful and accommodating. Asante sana from the Veeren and Brailsford family
5/5

From the moment we arrived at Nyerere airport we were taken good care of. We each had a 7seater off road land rover (woo hoo hoo)..mine and our dads (Tony) drivers and guide was Mattais and Brian(trainee), Abu and Macai (?) my brother Anthony's and wife Elizabeth's guides..my sister Lena n her husband Marks driver Raffa: all our guides made our wishes come true. Our first day was truly amazing. Our guides did their best to make sure we were comfortable, and saw all the animals we were hoping to see. For us, this was to be a special trip for our dads 80th birthday. We had never experienced anything like this as a family and truly loved this day. We returned to a delightful team at the Selous lodges. Our rooms were beautiful, thank you so much to all of you for making a dream come true. Asante sana

professionalism and kindness
5/5

The four-day experience with Uwanda was the highlight of our two-week honeymoon, spent in Tanzania and Zanzibar. This experience provided us with unforgettable emotions that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. Our guide, Mr. Martin, and our driver, Mr. Poli, put in the utmost effort to give us the best experience possible, and we are truly grateful.
We highly recommend Uwanda; you won't regret it!
