Memorable luxury safari, highly recommend!
My husband and I enjoyed the most memorable wonderful holiday in Tansania. Raymond organized all our accommodations, domestic flights and transfers perfectly and he contacted us regularly to hear if all was fine. Our Safari Guide, guided us 10 days long from Arusha, to Tarangire, to Lake Maniyara, NgoroNgiro, Ndutu and Serengeti. He speaks fluently French and English and his knowledge about all animals. Country, People was remarkable. We spent 10 days on Safari with him and he was with us from early morning until the end of the day. Jimmy has a great personality and we enjoyed his company every minute. He is a very good driver and the best Animal finder!! After Safari we spent 6 days in Zanzibar to relax which was also perfect.
Thank you so much for our perfect holidays!
Best regards Peter

Excellent experience
Perfect experience,
We booked the tour a day in advance, this was no problem. Directly we had good contact with (Jacob) smile tours they fixt everything for us; flights pick up and drop off from the hotel in Zanzibar. Clear and fast responses if we had any questions. Then the safari itself was unbelievable. Our guide Mr Salum Msese, he was realy friendly and knew a lot about the Forrest and animals that were found in the selous game reserve. Thanks to his expertise we were able to see all the animals we would want to see even the elusive leopard

From expert, knowledgeable, and down right fun safari guides!
My husband and I had a trip of a lifetime with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys. We went on a safari to East Africa in December 2021. We were the only 2 people signed up, but the full safari went on as planned. Needless to say, with Jane our safari director who was with us the entire time, to the various local driver/guides, and all the Tanzania Exclusive Journeys staff we were totally taken care of from start to finish. It was great not to have to worry about the details of getting from place to place. The camps and hotels we stayed in were great and the food was delicious. At 2 of the camps, we were the only guests. The best part was travelling through the beautiful countries (Kenya&Tanzania) and seeing the animals in their natural habit. It was amazing how close we got to them and how many different animals we saw. Needless to say I would highly recommend a safari with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and we can't wait to explore more of East Africa with them.

Just great
I planned the safari at short notice and got in touch with Cubs Expeditions and 2 other providers. Communication with Humphrey from Cubs Expeditions was very transparent and friendly, which is why I decided to go on a 3 day safari with him.
Starting with the airport transfer, everything worked perfectly on site. The safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro was just fantastic. We all saw the Big 5 and the food from the in-house chef was excellent.
After the safari I booked another tour (Materuni Coffee Tour) through Humphrey, which was also quite nice.
Cubs Expeditions is definitely trustworthy and 100% recommended.

Love Uganda
We visited Uganda in May 2021 and used Dav Safaris for our gorilla trekking experience. There were 10 of us and we had a fantastic time. Reagan and David picked up our group from Mukono and they were super accommodating about everything. Our drive to Bwindi was long but they never minded stopping for bathroom breaks or letting us take pictures. David stopped to buy the sweetest little bananas and shared them with our group and they were delicious. Reagan was super responsive by email and very much willing to help get us what we needed. We also managed to schedule an extra trip into Queen Elizabeth National park and they took us there and helped us get back to entebbe for our flight. Our lodge accommodations had amazing food and they were also wonderful and very welcoming. All in all, it was a fantastic experience.

Amazing Trip to Kidepo
In February 2022, I went on Safari in Kidepo National Park. I have been in Uganda for sometime now, and Kidepo was one of the final places that I wanted to see before returning home to the US. Chris of Uganda Adventure Safaris was my guide for the trip. We left Kampala on February 21st and returned on the 26th. It was amazing having so many days to explore the natural wonders of Kidepo. During this trip I was also able to explore another city that was new to me, Gulu. As soon as we arrived at Kidepo, we went on a game drive. Chris was determined for us to see as much wildlife as possible. In addition to being professional, Chris is also well connected. He has good working relationships with many of the park employees. And because of those connections, the rangers helped us find the wildlife in the park. We were able to see a beautiful male lion, up close and personal. Another thing of note about Chris and Uganda Adventure Safaris is that they are excellent at picking accommodations for their guests. During my time at Kidepo, I stayed at the Apoka Lodge. It is a budget accommodation but very comfortable with friendly staff. One of the unique features of Apoka is they have a watering hole in the middle of their lodge, where the animals of the park come to drink and cool off in the water. On two separate occasions during my stay, I saw families of elephants playing and drinking in the watering hole. The watering hole is situated directly across from the dining area for the lodge, so it is easy to catch animals while you take in a meal. This unexpected surprise was one of the highlights of my trip. I would of never witnessed such an amazing site, if Chris had not booked this particular accommodation for me. This is just one example of how Chris and Uganda Adventure Safaris goes above and beyond for their guests. Their attention to detail, positive attitude, professionalism, and kindness ensure that EVERY one of their guests will have the trip of a lifetime. I have spent alot of time in Uganda. During that time I have fallen in love with the country, and one of the main reasons for this are all of the wonderful trips that Chris of Uganda Adventure Safaris has taken me on during my stay here. I strongly encourage anyone that is visiting Uganda to book a trip with Uganda Adventure Safaris. It will give you the chance to see such a magical country with a seasoned and enthusiastic tour company who value customer satisfaction above anything else.
