Very kind tour operater who ensures you get that wonderful once in a life time experience!
I had a wonderful experience with EBS Tours and Safaris. I loved all the activities we got to do! The game drive being my favourite! Our tour guide Shafik was a very friendly person. He explained everything to us in great detail and made sure we saw most of the animals we wanted to see. This tour is something I’ll never forget!

Never better than this
Choosing Kanje was a great decision and that was evident through each part of the journey. The communications were prompt right from day 1 and remained the same right until the end of our journey. The service, hotels, food, and our guide were all exceptional! A large part the credit for our good experience goes to our guide, Amani. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind and helpful; he made sure that we got everything we wanted and really exceeded our expectations! Would certainly recommend this company for a visit to Tanzania.

Perfect and amazing trip!
We booked our stay with Kiwoito (4 people: 2 French / 2 Spanish). This is a Tanzanian agency (no need to go through a European agency. Trust the locals!). Service at the top! Charles, our interlocutor, speaks French and English. Contact at the top from the start. Hyper responsive on whatsapp (+255 787 910 028). As soon as we arrived, there was an important football match in the country, and as Charles saw that we liked it, he took us to see the match with him.
We climbed Kilimanjaro and then did a 4-day safari (Serengeti/Ngorongoro/Tarangire).
Thanks to the mountain guides (Emmanuel and Rabiel) selected by Charles (all speaking English and French), we reached the summit of Kilimanjaro. And up there is... Wow! There are no words to describe this feeling. Very good food, porters, cooks, very nice guides! They do an incredible and physically very difficult job. Our two guides were from the Maasai tribe and agreed to explain their culture and traditions to us. Very interesting and enriching. Golden guys!
Then the Safari with Freddy (who also speaks French and English and is also Maasai) was amazing. He has been doing this job for over twenty years. He knows the parks like the back of his hand. It has plenty of stories about animals and vegetation. This makes the experience even more interesting. He managed to show us all the animals except the rhinoceros. And he told us about his family, his children. A beautiful person!
All this means that we leave Tanzania with a heavy heart! After 32 countries, I can say that this jewel of Africa is in my top 3, first for its incredibly warm and welcoming people, then for what the country has to offer (landscapes, fauna and flora).
I hope we can come back to visit Zanzibar.
Asante Sana Tanzania! Asante sana Kiwoito!

An excellent tour operator with a very high level of professionalism and knowledge.
We opted for the offer of Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours for our safari thanks to, among other things, the very good reviews that we read online. And they were correct. Cultural Vibes, and especially Tongesai Mutematsaka, organised the tour perfectly.
Since the moment we made the booking, communication with them was easy and seamless, providing us with all the necessary information. During our tour, Tongesai was an excellent guide and a pleasant companion. He knew the areas very well, was well prepared and gave us useful instructions and information about the places, the people and the wildlife. The activities were exciting and the whole programme was well thought out. Accommodation was perfect and we were provided with all necessary amenities.
All in all, this tour allowed us to get the most out of the places we visited. A big thank you to Tongesai, and to Cultural Vibes, for this beautiful experience.

Well organized with an eye for detail
The preparations went smoothly. Emma responds quickly and gives options so that we could tailor our safari to our own liking.
The guide arrived on time and drove very safely. You can't say that about many other road users.
He managed to maneuver us through the park without any problems, and he knew a lot of details about all the animals and plants we saw. You could tell that the guide was well trained.
The lunch boxes were very extensive and there was more than enough drinking water for the road.
We slept at Osopuko Tarangire lodge and that was amazing. The view was panoramic: from the room we saw giraffes, elephants and even lions. The maasai escorted us outside as soon as it got dark. Emma gave us the right options!
Thank you Emma and Ramadan (the guide) for this fantastic experience!

Africa safari 2023 good experinece
In general we are happy with the tour, the guide and assistance. Information with booking and afterward was correct (except one). Guid edid his best (Mr Clement) and get to see what we want.
If a few points would not have been - resulted in 5 stars but.
Qualitty of the mini van. Spring of min one wheel poor and this resulting in non confortable driving
Screw set out at the door resulting in several arm injuries and due to movements etc not to avoid sharp scratches...
Booking in Masa Mara change to other lodge and this was not mediore or luxury but budget. I can understand an overbooking can happen but minimum to discuss this with the client (us)... I can easily survive budget but do nt likle is as paid and book more luxury...
But is general we are happy .

Extremely professional, very organized with attention to detail and high quality of service provided
The experience with Tongesai from Cultural Vibes was excellent from the start. The information before the actual booking was provided quickly and in a very professional and illustrative fashion. Very detailed program was provided in advance, with plenty of pictures, so we knew exactly what we were going in for! On the day of our arrival we were met by Tongesai at the airport and transferred to our lodge. All of our lodges were of very high standard, just as they looked in the pictures. The food was excellent too. Also, and very importantly, Tongesai was a very pleasant and knowledgeable guide. He drove us everywhere in his van, which was very comfortable, clean and air-conditioned. He was also very flexible when we proposed slight changes to the plan, for example some later departures from the lodges in the morning or a drive to a nearby city on a free morning, which he took upon himself to organize and he accompanied us, for no extra cost. The game drives were excellent too, conducted by professionals who were organized and committed to delivering the best possible service. The tour was admittedly not cheap, but not more expensive than other analogous options available, and it was definitely great value for money. All in all, our experience with Cultural Vibes was excellent and I would warmly recommend them, and particularly Tongesai, for an amazing experience in Africa!

Solomon was the most incredible Safari guide, recommend completely!
Solomon was the best - he was friendly, generous in answering all of our questions, punctual with our drives, and communicated everything we needed to know for a smooth experience. He was an expert at finding and quickly getting to all of the most impressive animals. Amazing experience, definitely recommend!
