Bad experience
Still waiting for a $ 1250 refund since 2020
At each reminder, we always receive a response that the balance will be refunded quickly. To date, we have not received the amount due to us.

Consisten Communication
Abdullah was great to deal with. We had multiple conversations via WhatsApp prior to my departure for Tanzania and once I landed.
I find it a bit hard to leave a review because I know from talking to the others in our safari vehicle we all came from 3 different tour companies so I cant say if you will get the same driver, vehicle or cook. However, our driver Jonas (Yonas) and the vehicle he had at the time were amazing. I have nothing but good things to say about him and his desire and ability to make sure we had front row seats at all the best sightings and his care and attention to our enjoyment. It was a magical trip, one I would do again. Ngorongoro was probably my favorite, though the Serengeti was also mind blowing.
The 'rustic' camps were fun and fit well with my desire to be camping rather than in a lodge. The food was great, nothing fancy but always tasted good. Get used to variations of Rice, Chicken and Vegetables.
My only real complaint was the amount of time I spent and number of texts back and forth with Godwin, the contact in Arusha. It really frustrated me. I had arranged with Abdullah for a pickup in Arusha that I was told was "perfectly fine", however over the course of nearly a day I had dozens of text messages with Godwin claiming it was not an easy pickup location and I should find my own way to a pickup point. ie Pay my own money and find my way via taxi / tuk tuk to a location in a city I have no knowledge of, instead of them finding me in a city they knew. It wasn't until I had my hotel call Godwin in person that we finally convinced him to pick me up. After that, everything was good.

Amazing tour, highly recomended. Especially for those are in Zanzibar and looking for 1 day safari. Taxi pick up from your own hotel, flight in same day, and 6 hours of safari in beautiful mikumi park, flight transportation food included. Best price in Tanzania. Great attandance and help from safari driver/guide.

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!

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.

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!

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.
