Excellent service
We've used services of Uhuru Travel to book the 2-days trip into Selous park.
Everything was smooth, we've really enjoyed the safari and the boat trip.
Thanks to Mr. Abdullah from Uhuru Travel and his staff.

Two days filled with impressions
The trip to Tanzania will be remembered by me and my friends for a long time. We have never had such a bright journey before.
When we were going to Zanzibar, we knew right away that we had to go on safari.
Our choice fell on Uhuru Travel & Tours and we did not lose.
Abdullah selected the optimal program for us for 2 days. Always available via WhatsApp for coordination and always very responsive.
A huge thank you to him, his entire team and our funny guide-driver who accompanied us all the days of the safari.
Our first day on safari turned out to be more vivid, perhaps. Our small group was the first to discover the pride of the lion, which had not been seen by the others for several days. A rich program, a stop for the night at a hotel in the Mikumi Park, and most importantly, we managed to see almost all the animals.
It was a bright trip, well organized. Getting to know Tanzania was a great experience.
Thank you very much!

The tour was very well organized and everything was as promised!
We booked the 4 day budget camping safari, including Serengeti, ngorongro crater and tarangire national park. We enjoyed every minute of it. Everything went great (we flipped our plan completely and did the tour in the other direction than initially planned, we didn't mind at all tho, because we still got to see all the places!)
We saw the Big 5 within the first 2 days of our trip - our guide Isido was amazing! He was fun, showed us not only the animals but also the Flora and fauna and was overall a nice guy :) we saw all the animals we dreamed of seeing and so many more! While of course the animals are the highlight of the trip, do not forget to appreciate the amazing scenery and nature. It was beautiful!!
The camping situation was very basic (as said in the title of the trip) and it was perfectly fine for us. Tent, sleeping bag, mattress - all you need for a good night camping! I suggest bringing a headlight for using the bathroom as it gets dark early.
The food was amazing - thank you to our chef Apollo, it was among the best food we ate in Tanzania!!

Well organized, Uhuru Travel has a lot of knowledge on Tanzania providing a great safari experience!
Uhuru has organized a trip from Dar Es Salaam to Ruaha National Park. The walking safari was the highlight of the trip encountering crocodiles and hippo's from very close distance. Lodge was very nice and well located. All, including air travel, was organized very well and is was a very nice experience.

Excellent service!
We booked our Selous safari and several other internal flights and ground transfers with Mr. Abdullah at Uhuru travel. Our trip was perfect! Everything went off without a hitch. Mr. Abdullah was always very responsive and thorough. Even when there was a slight hiccup at the airport, his associate Mr. Pandu was there in just a few minutes to help iron it out. Excellent service and I can’t thank them enough for the wonderful experiences we shared in Tanzania. Highly recommend!

VERY NICE COORDINATION
found Uhuru Travel among many other tour operaters, Abdullah was the best option in terms of $$ & overall itinerary plan. I did 4 days shared tour of the northern safari, Abdullah has arranged for me to join other group with ( 7 wonders co ) which was very fun. Our guid was Robin, he is Professional & very supportive. Also willing to do extra things to make your trip more comfortable.
after the safari, I visited Dar & Zanzbiar. Both I had driver for me & were very fun & full of activities.
all the booking plans & transportation arrangement was done thur Abdullah, I only had to book my flight.
overall it was nice coordination & I would recommend both Uhuru Travel & Seven Wonders

Well organized, nice guides and appropriate price
My safari was great! I traveled alone and changed the group after the first day, but all people I met were very nice. Even with rain, out guides tried their best to give us the maximum wildlife experience and we were lucky! I saw all the Big five! The nights in the tents were pretty rough, but it is part of it! And it is ten times worth it! Thank you Uhuru Travel for this adventure!

Reliable and Caring Tour Patner
Mr. Nestor is a great tour guide who made me feel always secured and focus on enjoying the safari tour!
He knows where the wild animals gather and move in the vast national park, so can drive the jeep very efficiently. I was able to watch lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, hippopotamuses, crocodiles, buffaloes and many more!
I very much appreciated the warmest services provided by Mr. Nestor and Mr. Abdullah, and strongly recommend Uhuru Travel to the travelers wishing to experience an unforgettable safari tour without any stress. Next time, I’ll bring my family to the tour. Thanks!

Reliable, customer focused, large portfolio of tour options, great people, and responsive.
I would and will use Uhuru Travel for future trips to Africa. I found them to be reliable during a difficult two year COVID cycle. They were able to plan multiple types of trips for our party from a very successful climb of Kilimanjaro, to day trips out of Arusha, to a 12 day Safari to the wonderful National Parks in Tanzania and Kenya ending with relaxation on the beaches in Zanzibar. I found their guides/drivers to be knowledgeable, accommodating and good hard working people. For that matter I found this to be the case throughout the organization. Communication was timely and understanding, despite 10 hour time differences and the potential for language differences. We evaluated several different agencies and found them to be the best all around-we were not disappointed!
