Fabulous!!!
What an amazing safari!! Up country adventures hit it out of the park!! They provided great service every step of the way. Our driver Lawrence was wonderful. He was so patient. Could answer any question we asked about anything safari related. He had eagle eyes to see things we never would have seen. He would stay put as long as we wanted to take pictures and just breathe in the Serengeti air. He also drove very safely over the washboard roads. We were able to see every one of the animals, the big 5, ugly 5 and everything in between.
Don’t hesitate to book a safari with up country you’ll be very well cared for. 💖

Best Safari Ever!!!
What an amazing first safari!!! From beginning to end we were well cared for, providing blankets for the cool morning and lots of water for the long journey. The guides were super knowledgeable about the animals and scenery plus made sure we got the BEST shots!!! Would highly recommend again and again!!

He was a lot of fun, knowledgeable and took made us feel extremely comfortable.
We were picked up when we arrived at the bus terminal, and took care of all our needs. They came on time to pick us up and we were able to remain all day until nightfall. They took their time and explained in detail about all the animals. A wonderful lunch was provided and even some wine.
The accommodations were comfortable, clean, and the food was delicious. I even went a second time with another visitor because I had such a great time.

Excellent help, I was nervous because I am elderly and didn’t know what to expect.
From the moment I arrived I was well taken care of and felt comfortable and safe. The company director greeting us and helped us get settled in. The whole team was very personable. It was a wonderful experience and I would do it again before I get even older.

Very accomodating and honest
Upcountry Adventure made sure we had a great experience, we did the hot air balloon and saw the Big Five. They made sure to keep my sister and I informed of everything we needed and our itinerary for each day. The guide knew English and we learned so much about the animals, terrain and Tanzanian culture. The price was excellent compared to operators. Definitely suggest using them if you are wanting to see Serengeti, Ngorongoro or any other National Park in Tanzania!

Worst experience I've had in a long time
I honestly wish I could give this operator zero stars. There's absolutely no reliability here. We felt treated like an inconvenience rather than a priority on our trip in January. Jumping around like parcels here and there, without any kind of professionalism or care for us. The worst thing: Selective listening seems to be the standard here; they only pay attention when it's in their best interest ($). Take positive reviews with a grain of salt, as most of these are clearly staged and written by the tour operator's own staff to inflate the score. See the pictures, you'll see the same faces and the same animals all around.

Excellent care given to my wife and myself on a fantastic trip!
From the moment we were picked up at the airport to our departure a week later we were exceptionally cared for. The accommodations were wonderful and our driver Lawerence bent over backwards to make sure we had a pleasurable time. We felt safe with his driving and he was skilled at finding elusive animals. We saw all of the big 5 (multiple times over) as well as the ugly 5. This was a trip of a lifetime and I’m so glad we used Up Country Adventures! I’d recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible African safari.

We were well informed on what to expect and were well taken care of!
We were hesitant on going to Serengeti because we didn’t know what to expect and pricing. But Upcountry Adventure made sure to communicate well and once we arrived there was zero worries. They picked us up from the airport and took care of every detail after. We stayed in Ndutu, Serengeti and Ngorongoro! We did a hot air balloon safari and the Camp we stayed at (Signature Luxury Tented Camps) made us a cake and celebrated us for staying 3 nights! Highly recommend to stay there ! All in all, Upcountry Adventure gave our family unforgettable memories that we never thought were possible!

Very kind and accommodating
This was a wonderful experience! We were well taken care of and the company even accommodated for my Nana in her 70s. She had a great time! And we got to see all our favorite animals in Mikumi ! I definitely recommend Upcountry Adventure if you are considering doing Safari in Tanzania!

Mikumi Safari with Upcountry Adventures - Leopard, Waterhole Lunch & Exceptional Care
Our day at Mikumi National Park was exhilarating. Zumba, our expert driver, and Sylvia, our observant guide, made it seamless and memorable. Sylvia’s sharp eyes led us to a rare leopard in a tree.
Lunch by a watering hole was a highlight, with wildlife approaching as we dined. We learned fascinating insights about animal behavior and interactions during the eight-hour journey.
Back at Camp Bastion, we were welcomed with a delicious dinner and a charming chalet. Josephat, the founder of Upcountry, and Mollie, our dedicated agent, provided exceptional care before, during, and after the safari.
We’re eager for more—Serengeti with Upcountry is next on our itinerary. #EastAfricaTravel, #UpcountryAdventure, #MikumiNationalPark “
