Uhuru Travel Brings you at the heart of the Wild Africa
The tour started from Arusha. Mr Loy met us in front of the hotel and after a short briefing we left, very early in the morning, by car, a huge 4by4 driven by the best driver we have ever known: Abraham. He brings us for a couple of thousands kms from lake manyara passing through ngorongoro, serengeti, lake ndutu, tarangire back to Arusha again. Everything was simply perfect, no other words I can use. Than mr Loy met us at the Arusha airport and stayed with us until the check-in. We arrived in Zanzibar in two Hours. There a taxi send by Abdallah, brings us to the jambiani whitesand boungalows, a very nice and comfortable resort really on the beach. We than met Abdallah in Stone Town, at the headquarter of Uhuru Travel. He is a very good and gentle boy. We had a wonderful holiday thanks to Uhuru Travel.

Not what expected for 1600 USD/person.
Six nights in Serengeti. First night in Impala Hotel in Arusha was awful. We did'nt have electricity in the room and in the bathroom. Breakfast was awful. Never accept Impala Hotel ! Tour and guide itself was good. The standard was not what was promised. Luxory tented camp was far from luxory tent. I have been in a luxory tent as well. Arrangements in Arusha at the end of the tour were poor. 1600 USD price/person is far too high compared with the standard.
Professional
We had an excellent experience. Our driver was kind, knowledgable, and punctual. The safari experience with him was amazing... He took us very close to animals yet we always felt safe. Our accommodations had to be changed due to a local land dispute and the agency handled the matter professionally with little inconvenience for us. We recommend this tour group.

An adventure for the ages!
So much to see so little time.
There is no way to descibe seeing the Maasai Mara for the first time. It is an overwhelming experience that satisfied my every dream.
The tour was an adventure that had us seeing something new every day.
We had excellent drivers who were patient and caring.
I was told we did the tour backwards going from the mara to serengeti but i loved it all.

Perfect experience!
We had 1 week of holidays in Tanzania and we are glad that we choose Uhuru for all the arrangements.
I had contacted them for the Safari and hotel for Zanzibar. the lodges and the hotel that they have selected could not be better! They perfectly understood our expectations and made very good suggestions to us. We did not have any problem with Uhuru neither for the hotel nor for the Safari in Selous. Our driver was very nice and kind to us. He had very good knowledge about the places. Mr.Abdallah from the agency was very helpful since the beginning until the end of the trip. You can 100% trust Uhuru.

Very experienced, professional and deliver over your your expectations.
Our first contact with Uhuru travel was when we arrived to Zanzibar. We asks for a offer and which expectations we had. Uhuru travel proposed (in printed) to suggestions 2 nights and 3 nights over stay. They explained very well the differences and what more we could experience with a longer stay. Our safari was deceded by us, 4 days in advance but that was never a problem for Uhuru travel. They arranged pick up at our hotel, and the driver also took the extra time to do a stop in the city. Very service minded and always in time. Our safari started in Arusha. There our personal guide/driver waited for us with prepared lunch. We visit 4 national parks in 4 days. (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. We spend many ours in the Jeep and the whole time our driver/guide gave information about the national parks and information about how it is to live in Tanzania. Our guide knew exact where to find the big 5 and how. And he informed about all other animals we saw during our safari.
Me and my wife can only say a big thank you to our guide Dennis, that did our safari to a very good experience.
We only have good experiences with Uhuru travel, and give our best recommendations.

Professional, responsive and easy to deal with
Wow, where do we start? It was such an incredible experience and these guys know what they are doing! From the moment we were picked up from the hotel to the moment we arrived back, we felt in safe hands. The safari driver Felix was super relaxed, a considerate driver and very knowledgeable. He showed us the most incredible animals and took the time to explain small details about them and we saw everything, lions, elephant's, zebras, giraffes, hippos, crocks, wilder beast, water lizard, monkeys, baboons, pumbas, antelopes and loads more! They managed to show us it all whilst also being calm and non-intrusive to the animals! Can highly recommend!

Dream honeymoon
From the first contact Mr. Abdallah understood what we were looking for and made a balanced plan according to our request. Mr. Abdallah was always very helpful and replied to our questions swiftly and professionally.
Thanks to Uhuru Travel we were able to experience adventure and comfort at the same time by staying in tended camps and lodges where the staff was always friendly and the food was delicious, specially at Julia’s River Camp in Kenya, Tanzanice Farm Lodge in Tanzania and Zanzibar Magic Boutique Hotel in Zanzibar.
Our guides, Jeremy in Kenya and Festo in Tanzania, were both very knowledgeable about the parks and the animal behaviors, allowing us to see even more animals than we had imagined. They were also very friendly and mindful of our wellbeing and needs, making balanced plans with longer game drive days and shorter days that allowed us to rest and relax. Also in Zanzibar, the commute from the airport to the hotel and vice versa were accounted for, allowing us to fully relax on the last days of our trip.
We definitely recommend the services provided by Uhuru Travel, and we look forward to future trips. Thank you!
