Kapande was exceptional, ensuring our comfort and enjoyment, making us fall in love with safari
5/5

I had an incredible experience with Uwanda Tours and Safaris, largely thanks to our amazing guide, Kapande. He was not only fun and engaging but also incredibly patient, sharing a wealth of knowledge about the animals, plants, and local culture that truly enriched our journey. His good advice and enthusiasm made every moment enjoyable and informative, igniting my eagerness to return.

The tour operator's service was outstanding, with excellent communication and a strong rapport that made the entire process smooth. The value for money was exceptional. The accommodations were beautiful, featuring attentive staff who enhanced our stay. The safari itself was mesmerizing—we encountered nearly all the iconic animals and learned so much about the flora and fauna. Those three days felt like two weeks of adventure and discovery; I can't recommend Uwanda enough!

Once in a lifetime experience with the best guide
5/5

From our experience the best value to money Safari. We booked the 5-day Safari (Mikumi + Nyerere National Parks). Ask for „Kapande“ as your personal Guide. The most welcoming and humble Guide we could have asked for. Always friendly and fluent in English. He is well-known among other guides, rangers and staff since he has been a Guide for the last 10+ years. He knows a lot about the wildlife and where to look for them during Game Drive. Expect long rides but very comfortable travel. We always felt safe and secure. Overall an experience wie will never forget!

We booked a 5-day tour and went to Mikumi and Nyerere Nationalpark. We saw so many animals, it was an incredible experience!
Our tourguide was Kapande, he told us a lot about the wildlife and he was the nicest person ever! We had so much fun and we will definitely come back :)

Good experience
5/5

We did the trip named "12-Day Incredible Safari of Game Drive, Stone Age, Hiking". Season: august. This proposal includes Mikumi N.P., Ruaha N.P., Isimila Stone Age site, Udzungwa mountains trek and Nyerere N.P. We enjoyed a lot this trip, it has been a nice experience. Our guide, Kapande, did a excellent work, offering us kindness, punctuality and professionalism every day.

All National Parks are very nice. Mikumi is small, so looks a bit crowded, but on the other hand it's easy to see animals. Ruaha N.P is far away, indeed, but offer us the opportunity to enjoy a safari in a uncrowded place, where is rare to come across other vehicles. Nyerere N.P. is also a quiet place, and the river safari was pleasant, where we were alone. Udzungwa mountains trek was also very nice and peaceful (we choose to go to the big waterfall, distant 2 hours -walking slowly-).

Camp Bastian Mikumi: nice place. Kind staff, correct food (buffet food)
Ruaha Hilltop Lodge: very nice location, friendly people, correct food
Selous Safari Lodge: Excellent bungalows in a very nice garden... but poor food.
Selous Kinga Lodge: Nice bungalows in a quiet place. Correct food.

It is a trip designed for safari and nature lovers. It's worth.

4/5

We had a fantastic 9 day safari going to 3 game parks. Our safari guide was Kapande who was fantastic. He knew exactly where to go to see the animals, was good company, and stayed with us until our plane left despite being a number of hours later than scheduled. He ensured that we saw everything we wanted to see and constructed the tour around what we wanted to get out of it.
The down sides were that the company forgot to tell him we were arriving at a different time than originally planned and also on the last day the safari company initially tried to shorten our trip however Kapande sorted all this out in his usual friendly and calm manner
Even when our car broke down, he arranged ‘other transport’ and before we knew it we were back on the road
