Excellent experience
We booked the 3-Day Flight Package from Zanzibar to Nyerere/Selous with Uwanda Tours and Safaris in Aug, 2022.
It was a really great experience, they were very responsive and arranged everything (transfers, flight, accommodation and safari) on a very short notice, as we booked the package just two days before departure time.
About the trip:
1st day - a taxi picked up from the resort in Zanzibar (Kiwengwa) early in the morning and dropped us at the airport. then we took a flight to the Mtemere airstrip, where someone was waiting for us and brought us to the safari lodge.
The lodge and people working there are very nice, so we had a good experience with that one as well.
Just don't expect a 5 star hotel in the middle of nowhere and try to enjoy it and take it as a once in a lifetime experience.
After the lunch, our guide took us to a near village, where we could see how local people are living. We had a short walk and visited the primary school in the village.
In the evening we had a boat tour until the sunset. It took about 2 hours and we saw a lot of birds and the hippos.
2nd day - a whole day Safari drive with some short breaks and a stop for lunch
we got to see almost all the animals that live in the park. it's a great experience to have such close encounters with wild exotic animals.
the guide answered all our questions and also provided a lot of interesting information during the safari about all the animals and the environment that they live in
3rd day - a morning bush walk together with an interesting guide. the guy knew a lot of things about the things in the nature and how we can benefit of them.
an experience I would highly recommend to anyone that loves nature and wants to understand it better.
after the bush walk we had lunch and then back to mtemere - zanzibar and then to the resort in Kiwengwa
Special thanks to our guides, Martin for the Safari and Simba the Bushman for the walk.
They're great guys and shared with us a lot of interesting things during the trip.
Hope you'll enjoy the experience as we did!

Paul was relatively quietinformation regarding, but when asked a question he answered knowledgeably
Information regarding departure times and meals was reliable, and we always left on time. The water Safari on the first afternoon was very enjoyable! Our guide was great! And we loved stopping at the sand bar to watch the sunset. Our Driving Safari was 11 hours and Paul was determined to help us see as many animals as possible! The Village Tour the last morning however was disappointing. A hot walk thru the village with no information given. We stayed at Africa Safari camp and the room was very comfortable, except we had very little water stuff first night.. Meals were ample and tasty. Overall a great value for the money!

Fast responses, reliable service, everything done as the itinerary promised.
We booked a private two-person safari with Uwanda Tours. I would recommend the operator, as everything happened as planned, they are reliable and we enjoyed our trip very much!
A driver picked us up at our hotel in Zanzibar and took us to the flight to Mtemere Airstrip. Our itinerary consisted of a boat tour, a full day game drive and a walking safari. All guides and drivers were on time, all of them could give us information on the program and what to do next. The guides were experienced, they knew exactly where to look for the animals, so we have seen many and they told us lots of interesting facts about the nature.
The accommodation was at Africa Safari Lodge, the room was comfortable with a private bathroom, there were three meals per day and the staff was helpful.
We felt like our safety was their priority, we had a great time. Thank you for the tour!
Excellent and Perfect service
I with my friend experienced nice Safari operated by uwanda tours and Safari, we enjoyed a lot at Nyerere National Park.
I recommend Uwanda Tours And Safaris

Went the extra mile to make sure we had a good experience
Paul was our tour guide who picked us up in the city and drove the 4 hours to the camp. We then had a quick breakfast and straight to the national park! Paul made sure we could see as much as possible, after seeing most of the animals the only thing left was the lions and even as the day was coming to an end he still did everything to try and find them and luckily we did! We felt Paul made an extra effort to do this and we really appreciated it. The camp setting felt authentic and fun and meals provided were good quality. We stayed overnight for 1 night and we went on a bush walk and boat ride in the morning and we enjoyed these experiences also, the tour guide on the boat was very friendly and helpful. Paul our park tour guide then drove us back to the city the next day and provided lunch on both days. He was very punctual and a friendly tour guide. We would highly recommend this company, everything was as described and we feel it was very good value for money.

Reliable and excellent service
We had a great experience with a day Safari from Zanzibar to Tanzania. We are a family of 4. So let yourself have this experience- we will overwhelm and humble of being humans thus wondering how we can destroy nature because it doesn’t get bigger than this.

Well organised Safari trip from Zanzibar
We were staying in Nungwi, Zanzibar and wanted a Safari which would start and end at our hotel. Though we asked around for various fee quotes, we ended up with uwanda tours. They offered us great service, picking us up by taxi to the Ferry and another taxi from the Ferry to Selous. We had a flight back to Zanzibar and a taxi brought us back to our hotel. The company is very responsive over whatsapp, when we ran into any issues througout our stay. As we had a late flight back 4 pm, we opted to alter our last day to another game drive. All in all had a great experience!

Everything is taken well care of and you have absolutely nothing to worry about.
We were searching for a safari trip when we were home, but thought it was all really expensive. We were going on a holiday to Zanzibar and thought a one-day safari would be enough. We learned here that it would be better to go for at least 2 days and so we did.
It was absolutely amazing. Everything was really well taken care of. The transfer came to pick us up en brought us to the airport. There we had another person welcoming us en leading us to the right place to sit and wait for check in time to open. Once it was he walked with us to the waiting line. He explained very clear where to stand and go and so we did. The flight was very good in a small plane. Once we landed there was a jeep waiting for us with our personal driver. He brought us to the best places where we were able to see almost all the animals that live in this savanna. We had lunch in the park en were brought to the camp whenever we wanted to. Once we arrived there we could enter our room and rest en wait for dinner. The next day we were picked up after breakfast. We went on a boat safari which was also really great to see. After that we got a tour through the village and the guide leading us had so many things to tell as well. Afterwards he took us back to the jeep and we went back to the camp. Here we had lunch and had some time to rest before going back to the airport to fly back to Zanzibar. It was an amazing experience and we are really happy we were able to do this trip.
