Excellent but ask about tips!
7 day Machame route on Kilimanjaro followed by 3 day safari at Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.
Trek was excellent. Guide was great, food fantastic (especially given we were camping on a mountain!). We finished in 6 days which we appreciated (as we were all able to summit successfully). Only issue here was with tips. We tipped the recommended amount according to the Tanzanian Porters Association but the guides and porters had been told to expect two-three times more. I would encourage speaking to Cubs when booking to clarify what exactly the expected tipping situation is. Especially as the staff were all so fantastic!
Safari was great. We didn’t see as many of the rare animals as we had been hoping but not through any fault of our guide. The camping was fine, but be aware that if you are in a group with an odd number of people you will be asked to share a tent with someone else. Perhaps to be expected for a shared safari but I think worth mentioning upfront.
Overall, we definitely recommend Cubs for both trekking and safaris (especially given their low price compared to most other companies) and it would have been 5/5 if the above issues had been mentioned to us beforehand so we knew better what to expect.

Amazing
Cubs Expeditions managed to organize us a beautiful trip, including 6 days climbing kilimanjaro and 9 days of safari. The team that accompanied us to kilimanjaro was amazing, we felt safe all along the ascent, with always very good meals and of course incredible landscapes. Many thanks to Rama and Eli, our two guides.
Humphrey organized a tailor-made 9-day safari for us, allowing us to enjoy the different natural parks of the country, each as magnificent as the other (including Serengeti, Tagangire, Ngorongogo). Amani, our guide during the safari was really great, we were able to admire the great migration and a lot of wild animals, once again with good meals ans good vibes.
Thank you again to Humphrey who was really adaptable and answered all of our questions.
It was an amazing experience, we recommend!

The we’re friendly and helpful all the time. We had the full wildlife experience in the camps but we didn’t miss anything. We really enjoyed these days.

Day hike in Shira Plateau and day bike trip to Lake Myanara
We did a one day hike in Shira Plateau and a one day bike trip in Lake Myanara/ Mto Wu Mba village and had a great time on both trips. Everything was well organised, Humphrey was very responsive to all messages before and after the trips, we had fantastic guides on both trips and thought we got a very good value for what we paid. The bike tour didn’t actually go to lake Myanara park but the outskirts, but the guide did give us the option to pay for the entrance fees which we didn’t decide to do as we still saw lots of animals on the outskirts. Would definitely recommend Cubs Expeditions and would use them again
