Outstanding Safari Experience with Uwanda Tours in Nyerere National Park
5/5

Our safari with Uwanda Tours was nothing short of exceptional. From the very first enquiry, the organisation was seamless and professional, and the price was by far the most competitive we found. Naturally, we wondered whether the lower cost might mean compromises on quality, but we couldn’t have been more wrong. The experience far exceeded our expectations.

Our driver and guide, Emil and Michael, were absolutely brilliant, knowledgeable, passionate, friendly and with eyes like hawks!

Over two days we were treated to incredible sightings: lions, a beautiful leopard resting in a river bed, herds of elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles, hyenas (during the day), wild dogs, and countless stunning birds. We literally saw everything the park has to offer, the only animal missing was the rhino, which simply isn’t present in Nyerere NP. The team went out of their way to make sure we had the best possible views and photo opportunities.

This was, without exaggeration, one of the most memorable experiences of our lives, two perfect days in the African wilderness that we will treasure forever. Huge thanks to Emil, Michael and the entire Uwanda team. If you’re planning a safari in Nyerere National Park, book with Uwanda, you won’t regret it! Highly, highly recommended.

Truly exceptional - Kapande the best
5/5

Our experience with our guide Kapande was truly exceptional — far better than anything we had read or imagined!!! He is a wonderful guide: warm, respectful, and incredibly attentive to every detail.

We did a 3 days safari in Selous with him, and from the very beginning we felt safe and comfortable. He picked us up with his ranger vehicle and later drove us back to Dar es Salaam. He bring us to the port to leave in Zanzibar by ferry. The drive was pleasant cross over the villages of Tanzania. The safari itself was unforgettable , we see all the areas, spots and animals. Hotel and rooms are nice and clean.

Kapande is a rare person — sincere, reliable, and deeply thoughtful. He made our safari an experience we will never forget.

Because of him, I was able to enjoy this whole experience with relax and lightness.

What I appreciated most was his way of being: genuine kindness, polite, discreet, and always present when needed, yet never intrusive.

Something that truly touched me was his honesty. Not once did he pressure us to buy anything or stop at shops — something that often happens while traveling. He never made us feel uncomfortable or obliged in any way.


This meant a lot to me, and I am deeply grateful for it.

A very efficient and well organised company, a stress-free, unforgettable experience!
5/5

Jambo jambo! We had a blast! The guide Emily and "Paul" the driver were the best guys there! They made our whole experience unforgettable- they went out of their way for us and we had a deal- the bigger the animal, the better the sweets!!! 😜🍫🍬
Norcas our restaurant waitress was so kind. Everyone couldn't do enough for you! The selous Lodge was very clean, dont forget your in a very humble commuity- food was set meals and very tasty! The Lodge was very quiet except for passing monkeys- perfect! (other parties out on activities). There was no alcohol at the Lodge but didn't make a difference to us; as it was non-stop, early morning starts and one night we happily went to bed straight after dinner!. WiFi in main Lodge area. Pool great- just what we needed! Bush walk was informative, learned about the land and surroundings, 'tribal Dai' (David) was dressed in traditional dress (not much!😉). The village tour was an eye opener- take some sweets! Boat tour was interesting, the guides are so knowledgeable. Maasai village was amazing- my heart was full! Sweets too here! Overall it was AWESOME! Highly recommend⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇹🇿🌍
Asante marafiki! "Hakuna matata"
