Better than expected
I was a little afraid about the tour because I didn't know anybody that has done the tours with them before.
I look for reviews online from different sources and that make me confident enough to take the "risk"
Before the trip: Humphrey always answered any doubt I had, and communication was great even when our time zones were completely different, expectations were clear about the prices and things included.
Arriving at Tanzania: Hudhaifa was waiting for me, I didn't have internet connection at the moment, but finding him took me less than 5min, we drove to the hotel and again he was helping me with any doubt, ir need I had.
Safari: One of the best experiences of my life, Eli was our guide/driver and he was amazing, his knowledge about the place is great, but he is also fun, relaxed and helpful, he could tell us what was going to happen before it happened (regarding animal behaviour), which is a good proof of all the experience he has, we were able to see a lot of different animals in just 3 days, car was comfortable and the food was so good, and different each time, we didn't eat the same thing every meal which is something I appreciate, unfortunately I forgot our chef name but he did also great.
The place is magical and it was more than I could have which and having all the wildlife so close is a surreal experience I will always remember.
Finally we head back to the hotel, next day Francis drove me to the airport (he also helped me the first day when I needed Tanzanian cash and took me to the ATM and back to the hotel)
A 5 star experience and worth all the time, money and effort I put into this trip.

Great value for money
Great experience- well organised tour and our driver Godwin really knew how to get us in the right place at the right time to see Cheetahs, Leopards, Rhinos and Lions. You could pay twice as much for a tour and see much less than we did!
Hiking Mount Meru and 3 Day Safari
Humphrey, the manager of Cubs Expeditions, from the first contact worked on making our trip unforgettable. He customized our travel to our needs. All of this at a fair price, with the money staying locally instead of funding European travel agencies. All pick-ups, transfers, and lodging included.
We had a three day hike onto Mount Meru, where David and his team did an incredible job to take us to the summit and back safely, in spite of our average fitness. Watching the sun rise behind Mt Kilimanjaro - a once in a lifetime moment.
In the following three days, Eli was a wonderful safari guide. He showed us three National Parks, each with its special nature and different animals. Both David and Eli were experienced and knowledgeable guides, always helpful, always great to talk to, and to have fun together.
We highly recommend Humphrey and his team.

A great experience with a great team!
We really enjoyed this experience, a great team! Our guide, Samuel, was very good, and he also had a Spanish banana, so it was perfect. We also had a chef who cooked very well! I highly recommend it if you want to experience an unforgettable adventure seeing the Big 5!

Awesome safari trip, highly recommend
Highly recommend this tour operator for safari!!!
I did the 3-day 6 person shared Ngorongoro /Serengeti tour with Cubs Expeditions and had an awesome experience. Zero complaints. Definitely great value for money, highly professional and reliable. They handled everything well from start to finish including airport transfer, accommodations, meals and the actual tour.
Kudos to Humphrey for handling the admin side of things very well. He was always available to assist with the arrangements including airport transfers, questions and changes!
The tour guide (Bakari) was just awesome - very knowledgeable, personable and good eye for spotting animals. Shout out to the chef (Kevin) that traveled with us and kept us happily fed with some very delicious meals. Final shout out to Hudhaifa for an excellent airport transfer service with some good laughs.
Overall, awesome safari trip through Cubs Expeditions. Highly recommend 👌

Unforgettable experience, 3-day safari
A 100% recommended experience that you will remember all your life.
We visited Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater.
I really liked visiting a different park every day, since it allows you to see a variety of environments and animals.
Every day we had a different guide, all of them really great. They care that the visit is unforgettable and that you see the largest number of animals in a respectful way. During the tour they explain a lot of things about the fauna of the place and try to answer any questions you may have.
The lodge where we stayed (Marera Valley) is wonderful, I totally recommend it

I just had an incredible experience and I highly recommend it. The guide, Fisso, was incredible, very professional and kind, a perfect guide.
As for the chef, Issa, a 10/10 chef, the organization and the scenery were incredible, the service was perfect, and I'm telling you, it's more than worth it. Go for it.

Wonderful
I was fortunate enough to have an absolutely exceptional safari experience. Our guide, Fisso, was remarkably kind and professional. Always smiling and attentive, he introduced us to all the animals with passion and precision. I recommend him without hesitation!
The food was also perfect: Chef Issa is a true culinary master, and every meal was a delight. The accommodation, meanwhile, combined comfort and quality, making the stay even more enjoyable.
In short, this safari will remain etched in my memory as the best experience of my life.
