Great experience and appreciated thorough communication and care
My partner and I arranged a full-day game drive at Hwange National Park with Cultural Vibes. A week before we took part in the activity, Tongesai already touched based and sent a detailed itinerary for the day and solved all doubts he had ahead of our trip. Tongesai picked us up from Victoria Falls and drove all the way to Hwange's main camp and back. We had a very interesting conversation about the park but also about Zimbabwe and the history of the country. The experience at the park was spectacular; we saw over 500 elephants, some 60 zebras, a dozen giraffes, several species of antelopes, some hippos, crocodiles, monkey and a wide range of birds. The guide at the park was very knowledgeable and share valuable information on all the animals we spotted. The park is huge and one must adjust his/her expectations if is only willing to dedicate one day to encounter some animals which are especially active at night (aka. big cats such as lions and leopards).
I would totally recommend booking with Cultural Vibes as Tongesai is a very dedicated and customer-oriented man who does care about the desires and expectations of his clients.

Above and Beyond all Expectations -Zambia and Botswana
Rose organised a 12 night trip for our 3 families ( 6 adults and 7 young adults).It was a combination of the Zambezi and Okawango with a combination of lodges and luxury mobile camping. The trip was flawless, the organisation exceptional , the transfers seamless, the accommodation and guiding excellent . The luxury mobile camping was the highlight and should be tried by all who are able to truly spend a few nights in the wild, in luxury...

Brilliant. Megan was efficient, on the ball and prepared everything.
The best holiday without any cares or worries. The whole package of information with our itinerary etc was beautifully presented and explained everything. Very professional.
The accommodation was perfect and the staff at Ilala Lodge, Sanctuary Stanley's Camp and Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero Lodge were so welcoming and helpful. Special mention must be made of Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero Lodge. It must be the flagship Sanctuary Lodge in the world! The staff there were exceptional and saw to every detail and beyond. Towels shaped into swans or hearts etc. on the beds with bougainvillea flowers around them. They went the extra mile.
The tour guides at both safari lodges were so knowledgeable and accommodating in trying to find wonderful places for sun-downers and morning teas and in finding lion etc. We felt safe in their hands and it was great to be able to joke and laugh with them.
Thank you to all who made our holiday a wonderful experience.

Had a super amazing awesome time!!!
I had a group safari (sep. 2019) with them through the 4 most known tanzanian national parks in the north of the country: Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Manyara NP, Tarangiré NP.
I had the time of.my life during those 5 days. It was amazingly organized and I could see all most known African animals (4 of the big5). HILDA our cooker was just special. I loved.to much her meals so tasty and made.with love. She treated us as their sons ❤. BRYSON our guide and driver was special too cause he could spot for us all possible animals and he was always available to explain us everything about nature and culture of Tanzania. Finally thanks to Hilary for the prompt answer everytime and for the big smile he has when he welcomed us the first night at about 1am. It was just perfect! Thanks

It was an outstanding experience with friendly guides who showed us amazing sights of the wild life
All the arrangements were perfect and we were kept informed about each days excursions. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable about the animals. The safari exceeded our expectations with the level of service and the number of animals that we saw. The guides had an uncanny knowledgeable of where to be to see amazing sights such as the wildebeast migration and a lion's kill. Overall an outstanding experience.

Hakuna Matata- no worries everything was perfectly well organised.
Communication during the planning stage was great. Every issue or concern I had was addressed either on the phone or via email. Cuan was always honest and willing to discuss options and because of his experience, was able to make sound recommendations.The service was very good and we could set off on our safari with confidence.
The accommodation was excellent, surprising that such high quality establishments and services could be found in such remote locations. The only concern was that the Farmhouse at Ngorongoro Crater (although an excellent establishment) was quite a distance from the crater so it took a good hour or more driving to reach it on the morning of our safari.
All the safaris were excellent and each and every driver we had was extremely knowledgeable, interesting, friendly and easy going. This made each safari so much better. We were fortunate enough to see lots of different animals and birds and our guides were very accommodating so we could get the best possible view and have time to take plenty of photos. The highlight was seeing the great migration with thousands of wildebeest in the Masai Mara.
Each game park we visited was interesting and rewarding - offering something different in each place, so couldn't really say that one was better than the other - we enjoyed them all. The downside was the long, slow, dusty roads between places which meant we had very full days and little time to relax on arrival to the lodges. I guess that this is unavoidable when trying to fit in visits to lots of places in a limited time.
The hospitality and service at each hotel was excellent and so nice that the staff were very friendly and always willing to talk to us. So good to hear their stories. I felt that maybe the tipping is getting a bit out of hand and there is a growing expectation to tip for every service supplied.
In conclusion, we were thoroughly satisfied with the organisation of our trip with African Ubuntu Safaris and everything seemed to "spot on". We had no concerns whatsoever and would wholeheartedly recommend them to other travellers.
