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.

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⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇹🇿🌍

Simply amazing, great, fantastic!
5/5

We visited Mikumi and Nyerere National Parks. And everything was perfect from beginning to end. A consistently friendly driver who was in complete control of his vehicle and extremely knowledgeable about the national parks. He also had excellent connections and contacts there, which proved helpful in tracking animals like lions and hyenas. Even though we've been home for a few days now, I'm still thrilled about our trip.

Magnificent trip to safari
5/5

The trip to safari using Uwanda Tours and Safaris was very well-organized, we had a clear schedule for the days and got to see different points of safari. We had a boat safari tour, village tour and a safari drive which lasted a whole day.
The village tour was a little concise and I wish we would have seen and hears more of the lives of people living there.
On our last day we were supposed to travel to Sansibar from Dar es Salaam via ferry but ferrys were not in traffic that day. Our tour guide, Kapande, was the most helpful and arranged us a straight flight to Sansibar from safari.
All-in-all I recommend using Uwanda Tours and Safaris if you want to have a comprehensive experience and value for your money. Our tour guide, Kapande, was a really professional and welcoming. We got a lot of new information from him about the animals and nature.
