Had great interactions/planning discussions prior to booking - was made really easy for us by Cuan
Was great - exactly what we wanted some driving and luxury/private tours at end

Extremely helpful, professional & created an amazing life long experince for our group of 11 people.
Our tour was designed for 11 people- all who had varying expectations of "where to go & what to see".
Cuan did an incredible job in creating a tour that catered for everyone's wishes & requirements .
Due to Cuan's knowledge of Africa & his professionalism, we did not encounter 1 problem in the 34 days that we were away.
Each camp that we stayed in was unique, all were very comfortable & very different in what they offered - allowing us to have a great experince of a variety of cultures & animal life.
We would highly recommend anyone wishing to go to Africa to contact African Ubuntu to discuss their travel plans.

Very helpful at every stage of choosing where to go & then booking the whole trip.
Very easy to contact and answered all questions no matter how trivial they may have been. Great service & the safari tour organized exclusively for us delivered everything that was promised & lots more. An unbelievable & incredibly positive experience.

Amazing wildlife sightings enabled by seamlessly organised itinerary.
I admire and wholeheartedly thank Cuan of African Ubuntu Safaris for putting my vision of a safari into reality. Given my "basic" wishes, he devised a safari that suited both our animal sightseeing wishes and took our required levels of comfort and privacy into account.

Fantastic
African Ubuntu Safaris were fantastic. Cuan organised a safari holiday for us in Namibia and Botswana, with a couple of days in Zimbabwe. We explained to Cuan the type of accommodation and style of safari we wanted (including our budget and the number of other holidaymakers who would be joining us), and that our primary interest was wildlife viewing. Cuan could not have put together a better itinerary. We saw all the wildlife we could have hoped for, including the elusive African wild dogs in Chobe. The accommodation was awesome (the African people know how to look after international visitors extremely well), and the small group safaris were perfect.
I can't recommend African Ubuntu Safaris enough. Cuan actually listens to what you want to get our of your trip and makes suggestions which he considers will make your trip even better. His advice was invaluable. We loved our last trip so much that Cuan is already organising another trip for my parents to Tanzania and South Africa for early 2016. I'll also be asking Cuan to organise a trip for me to Uganda in 2017.

The best travel agent experience EVER
We were absolutely delighted with the arrangements made for us by Cuan McLaren at Ubuntu Safaris when our family visited Tanzania in 2013. His detailed insider knowledge of the lodges, the best routes to take and the best places for animal viewing was enormously valuable. He accommodated our every request, including linking us up with friends traveling from Switzerland, and created just the right balance of accommodation and cultural experiences for us, all within our budget. We've since recommended Ubuntu Safaris to friends, who have been similarly impressed. Thanks to Ubuntu, our holiday to Tanzania will remain a highlight for the whole family.

accommodating, welcoming, knowledgable, experienced, passionate
I set no expectations for the tour and in turn had a blast and would do it again. The tour guides made the safari a positive experience.

Best holiday we have had.
Cuan and his team are fantastic.
He was very intuitive when designing our holiday in Botswana and Zambia and is a good listener. Critical for a great holiday.
We stayed at some fantastic lodges which allowed us to see a wide cross section of southern African wildlife in a limited period of time.
Cuan's Dad is a gem and makes life very easy coming into and leaving Johannesburg.
We will be using African Ubuntu Safaris for our next trip to this huge continent.

From J'burg to Victoria Falls, into 2 camps in Botswana thence to Rwanda to see the gorillas
We were 4 mature adults with no previous Africa experience so cannot make comparisons. However if we were to go again to Africa we would immediately contact Ubuntu and Cuan. The assistance in planning before departure, the logistics, the camps chosen (Kwando Lebala and Pom Pom) and the experience were faultless, they reflected Cuans' knowledge of the countries, the camps and the people. Cannot recommend Ubuntu highly enough.

Way beyond our expectations and our Best Safari Holiday Ever!
Cuan and his team are total professionals. They understand and respect the diversity of the continent, its people and culture, and have a passion for excellence. In our 66 days in four different countries, (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zambia) absolutely nothing went wrong, and not a detail was overlooked. He listened to our 'brief', made suggestions, and exceeded all we had hoped for. Cuan is planning our trip to Tanzania and Kenya in 2016 and we know he will deliver another outstanding package of animals, skilled staff, beautiful accommodation and adventure for us to experience. We are African born (now live in Australia) and have been on many safaris - but this trip was The Trip of a Lifetime. We absolutely recommend Ubuntu Safaris - definitely a leader and specialist in this field. Well done Ubuntu Safaris!
