Trip of a lifetime!
5/5

Our first trip to sub-Saharan Africa was a once in a lifetime experience. We took a 20 day trip through Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania.

Uganda provided great diversity, with some wonderful big game experiences as well as unique experiences gorilla trekking (very tough effort but worth every bit) and chimpanzees (a couple notches down the toughness scale, but still a sweat inducing effort). We were able to cap it off with a wonderful stay on the Nile river for two nights with enough white water to provide some wonderful sleeping sounds!

We then flew to Kenya. Starting first thing the next morning, we headed towards Maasai Mara for big game, especially big cats! We had a visit with a Maasai tribe, quite an experience. Many spectacular views, lots of hippos and pink flamingos than anyone could have thought existed.

We finished with a drive to Tanzania to experience the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater. Lots of lions, wildebeest, zebras, and giraffe.

Our personal guide for Uganda was very knowledgeable and the head of the company made sure we had every amenity available to us. Our guides in Kenya and Tanzania were just as knowledgeable and took great care of us as well.

All in all, a great experience!!!

A very memorable trip
5/5

It is a very memorable trip for us and I think Joseph has us hooked to safaris. In fact we want to plan another safari trip with Kubwa Five Safaris. Our guide Joseph is very knowledgeable and experienced so we managed to learn the names of the variety of animals we spotted on our journey. Joseph also kept us safe and took good care of us during the trip.

We will definitely be back in Africa and book with this company.

Safari
4/5

We did the 20 day Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. (Luxury)
And the reason why i give 4 stars and not 5 is because i think some of the Hotels could be better curated. Specifically the ones in Kenya and Bwindi (Uganda), Although they were good located inside the parks, they were a bit old. Not that they were cheap hotels, they must have been luxury at some point and they still hold the price tag. But i think it is worth exploring other smaller hotel/lodges with a boutique feel "understated luxury”, more personal. You can arrange all this with Joseph, because he wants to give you the best trip possible, i am sure of that.

The drivers/guides were professional and we got along with all 3 of them. Since the longest time was spent In Uganda with Samuel, we were sad to say goodbye to him at the airport after 12 days together. Samuel is a responsible and safe driver, polite, good sense of humor, a bit shy and a great smile.

Some of the hotels are upper mid range as specified on the list from the agency, and i was told that they choose this ones (instead of the luxury option) because of location. This is true for the 1st lodge in Murchinson National park. We only wish we would have had a little time to sit down and see the sunset over the river. The game drives can be as long or short as you want so one of the afternoons make sure you are back before sunset and take 20 minutes to sit outside and enjoy the views.

In Kibale, Uganda our tip would be to do the community walk (Note that the community walk can be as short or long as you want.) that afternoon instead of the next day after the chimpanzee trek. The reason being, that after the chimpanzee trek you can drive straight to Kyaninga and arrive there early. This is a beautiful hotel where you can do a few activities at the lodge….and we thought the setting is spectacular (they will also do your laundry complimentary so make sure you give it straight away as you arrive) We manage to be there by 13:00 and jump in the lake for a short swim, then we did a walk around the crater.

4/5

It was such a nice experience seeing and touring the Murchison falls and park for 3 days. With the boat cruise on the Albert nile seeing the nile hippos and crocodiles and the game drive which started very early in the mornin were I got to see three female lions getting ready to hunt, the savanna grassland elephants with their babies, buffaloes and giraffes. All to rap it up, the experience and treatment given by Kubwa Five Stars was nice to us

5/5



I returned home on 2nd Sunday October 2022. My 3days Murchison falls safari was AMAZING! It far exceeded my expectations and was a trip of a life time. Everything was well planned and accommodation was excellent. The whole trip could have been any better.
It was WONDERFUL! A huge success of our trip was Joseph of Kubwa safaris he was so knowledgeable and constantly made sure we were having an expectation trip I can't imagine a better safari company like Kubwa safaris, The Giraffes caught my eyes and for the first time I got to know that it has 3hearts and sleeps for 5 minutes goodness this was so funny

Excellent and the most breathtaking experience
5/5

The safari was well organized and our guide was very nice, friendly and experienced. You always feel safe and in case of problems they assist you immediately. The lodges where we slept were really nice.

We have the opportunity to fly to Africa in the near future and we will sure let Kubwa Five Safaris to handle our vacation again.

It was a great tour I have seen in my life because we had wonderful moments with Kumbwa Five Safaris
5/5

In humble manner, I would like to extend sincere gratitude to the Kumbwa Five Safaris company for whatever they did for us on a three - day tour to Murchison falls and Murchison falls National park. As we were fully accommodated with everything. In other words, we saw different wild animal species which was so interesting and enjoyable to whoever travel with us. Thanks
