Incredible safari experience with Usaka Adventures
My son and I recently went on a 5 day safari with Usaka Adventures going to 3 parks (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). I had tentatively booked with another company, but in talking to David, Usaka could do the same trip for less and a portion of the money goes to supporting an orphanage charity which I was very happy about.
We had an amazing trip seeing all of the big 5 animals and many more. We saw so many lions it was crazy. Our driver and guides made sure we saw all of the animals we wanted. The guides were very knowledgeable about the animals, birds and trees.
We had really nice tented accommodations with showers and toilets. We had very tasty meals at each place and for our lunches. The jeep was very comfortable and guides provided snacks, drinks and beer if we wanted.
We had meals together with our guides which helped us to learn more about Tanzania, its culture and speaking Swahili.
I would highly recommend booking your safari with Usaka. You will be very happy you did.

Caring, funny and knowledgeable – Jameson made our safari truly unforgettable!
Our safari with Jameson was truly wonderful and exceeded all my expectations. Seeing Africa and elephants had been a lifelong dream of mine, and Jameson made that dream come true – and even made it more special than I could have imagined. His warm personality, humour and incredible knowledge filled our safari with unforgettable moments. We felt in very good hands throughout the entire experience.
I'm truly grateful that our paths crossed. We are still in touch today, and I sincerely hope to visit Jameson again one day. I couldn't have wished for a better guide or a more memorable safari. Highly recommended!

Wonderful service, extremely well organised, excellent tour operator
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Fauziah and team where highly responsive from day one, very proactive and focused on our needs. Great communication, outlining various options and listening to our feedback to tailor and refine the itinerary to our specific requirements. We traveled with four children and wanted a quality experience but mindful of budget and we were extremely happy with the outcome. Accommodation was great, our safari guide was amazing, knew exactly where to go and when - we saw everything we wanted and more with some truly memorable moments that we will never forget. He was friendly and professional, our kids loved him.
We made several changes to our itinerary while we were there, switching to internal flights instead of road transfers which Fauziah handed no problem with less than 24hrs notice. We also extended our tour mid-way through and added some extra nights at new hotels, all handled without any issues at short notice.
We have only positive feedback and would highly recommend.

Thoughtful Service From Start to Finish
What impressed me most about Jambo Bwana was how personal and thoughtful their service felt from the very beginning.
While comparing several safari companies, many seemed to send standard itineraries and quotations. Jambo Bwana was different. They carefully listened to what we wanted and worked to find the best possible itinerary within our budget, which made the planning process smooth and efficient.
A special thank you to Faith, who handled our arrangements. She was always kind, patient and attentive. At the beginning of our trip, she surprised us with a small rhino souvenir and a handwritten note, which was such a lovely way to start our honeymoon safari.
Throughout the trip, we also found small honeymoon surprises prepared for us at different places, and those thoughtful touches became some of the most memorable parts of our journey. The barbecue set up for us in the middle of the Serengeti plains was especially unforgettable and one of the absolute highlights of our honeymoon.
Our safari driver and guide, Issah, was fantastic. He somehow spotted animals from incredible distances and was clearly very experienced. He also explained the animals, landscapes and local history throughout the trip, which made the safari much more meaningful. Even after the official itinerary ended, he kindly helped us exchange money in Arusha.
We were also grateful to Silvanus, who drove us to the airport the following day even though our Arusha hotel had been booked separately. Since we had some extra time before our flight, he even offered to stop somewhere for us and patiently waited.
Everything ran smoothly from beginning to end without a single problem. More than anything, we appreciated the kindness, flexibility and attention to detail shown by the whole team.
Thank you to Faith, Issah, Silvanus and everyone at Jambo Bwana for making our honeymoon safari such a memorable experience.

Great Experience
Overall, we had a wonderful experience exploring Tanzania’s national parks. Our driver Jimmy was very attentive, friendly and professional, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. The food throughout the entire trip was absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations.
The only downside was the excursion to the waterfalls in Moshi. The journey from Arusha was much longer than we anticipated, and the road conditions made the drive quite uncomfortable. I would recommend arranging this trip from the Kilimanjaro area instead, as it is much closer to the waterfalls and would make the experience considerably more enjoyable.
Apart from this, we thoroughly enjoyed the safari and appreciate the team’s efforts in making it a memorable trip.

We honestly couldn't have wished for a better safari experience! Anton was absolutely amazing and really made our honeymoon extra special. His knowledge, experience and passion for wildlife made every day incredible, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide!
Everything was so well organised, the lodges were lovely and clean, and all the staff were friendly, welcoming and spoke excellent English.
We made memories that will last a lifetime, and that's largely thanks to Anton and the team!

Speechless, a dream come true thanks to the jungle roam Safaris
It was an unforgettable six days. The accommodations were fantastic, especially Ntulele Camp in the Maasai Mara and its wonderful team. Everyone was incredibly friendly, and the meals were excellent. We saw a multitude of animals enjoying their natural habitat. We can honestly say it exceeded our expectations. A special thank you to our driver and guide, Ken. Many thanks to the entire Jungle Roam Safaris team.

More Than a Tour Operator—A Trusted Partner Every Step of the Way”
Michelle was absolutely wonderful to work with! As first-time travelers to Africa, we really appreciated how much care she took to understand what we wanted from our adventure. She arranged a video call with us to discuss our expectations and budget, making sure the itinerary was tailored to both. When two more people joined our trip, she was flexible and accommodating, helping us make the necessary adjustments without a fuss.
What impressed us most, though, was the support we received throughout the journey. We genuinely felt that Michelle had our backs. Knowing there was someone we could count on, even while traveling, gave us tremendous peace of mind.
The service was personal, attentive, and genuinely caring. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in planning our first African adventure. Highly recommended!

Mind blowing and breathtaking!
Sometimes words just fail when one experiences a journey in your life.
From incredible start to sad ending there were only magical moments.
We had the privilege to have Winter as our guide. He went out of his way to show us special sightings and allow us to experience the beautiful culture of Uganda.
Always on time, assistance with every aspect.
Uganda would not have bee the incredible experience we had without Ngoni Safaris and especially Winter to lead us through this unforgettable journey.
