Amazing 10 day safari
Cubs Expeditions was a great choice! Unlike the big travel companies that churn out tours on a conveyor belt, there was a friendly and personal approach from the beginning. Boss Humphrey made a tailor-made program for us, he was available at any time, really day and night, and he kept everything we agreed to the letter and to the letter! It wasn't our first time in Africa, but what the driver Amani showed was unparalleled! Always first everywhere, reliable, resourceful! He was driving like a dog while communicating via radio with his friendly colleagues about the presence of animals and even managed to spot the leopard under the tree!
Chef Halid was equally amazing, even in the most difficult conditions, he conjured up a multi-course meal every day in lightning speed. We liked everything without exception!
We saw so much more than we had hoped for - including the iconic Great Wildebeest Migration across the Mara River!
With Cubs Expeditions again anytime, thanks!

My first safari with Cubs Expeditions company was the best choice. An excellent driver and cook who arranged our journey and ensured our comfort. Thanks to the experience of the driver, we saw the maximum of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro.10 days on safari.

Excellent 10-day safari tour for photographers
This time it wasn’t necessary to spend nights reading all safari companies reviews on internet because I directly contacted Cubs Expeditions that I had an excellent experience in January this year. And again I can say it was a really great choice. The safari itself was really extraordinary, specially for me as a photographer. Now we realised 10-days safari tour. We met our guide and driver Mr. Amani again and it was proved true again that he is a real gemstone among guides, experienced and doing his job by his heart. He is very attentive to needs of his clients and for me as a photographer, it was perfect because he was very patient and stopping on spots really good for photographing. Based on his experience, he knows what positions are the best for making the best pictures. Specially in the North Serengeti where we were observing the big migration of animals near Mara river. So going with him is like being in a photographer’s paradise. I also have to mention our chef Halidi. He was preparing very tasty and creative meals and portions were huge, no one was starving. So again, I can honestly recommend going to safari with Cubs Expeditions.
Note: These photos were taken on mobile phone.

Extraordinary 10-day safari
Second time this year with Cubs Expeditions and I am satisfied again. This September tour was different in comparison with the January one because of other season and also due to different locations. Everything was perfectly arranged again. This time we did 10-day safari, again with an excellent guide and driver Mr. Amani. Visiting the North Serengeti with climbing of Ol Donyo Lengai volcano and observing the big migration of animals was stunning. Then we went to Central Serengeti where we saw completely different scenery than in January, lions and cheetahs hunting zebras and antelopes, hyenas and vultures waiting for the rest of the catch. Cold climate in Ngorongoro offered us a spectacular variety of animals as well. And visiting Hadzabe and Datooga tribes was also great. Our chef Halidi was preparing really tasty meals and no one was starving. This 10-day safari tour was really extraordinary and again I can recommend going to safari with Cubs Expeditions.

Great Safari
We did the 4D safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The safari was really great, lots of animals. Cubs Expeditions took great care of us. Especially big thanks to Humprey for setting up the tour, Mandela for being a great guide and Tito for the best food in Tanzania.

Family friendly tour company
Over 20 years ago I spent a year volunteering in Arusha and during this time did a five day safari with a local company that I was able to select based on local knowledge. This time around I had to pick a company based on internet searches and reviews so was slightly mindful whether I would have the same experience as before.
To my delight, Cub Expeditions - a Tanzanian owned company - met my expectations and then some. Humphrey, managing director of the company, was attentive to my needs and budget from the outset. He listened to what I wanted and responded with an itinerary that was suitable for my young family.
Our driver/guide and chef were equally attentive and flexible to the needs and patience of my 3 and 6 year olds. Halid was an amazing chef who ensured we had three hot and tasty meals a day. While other safari companies served sandwiches for lunch, Halid served up three course meals of deliciousness! Our kids loved every meal.
From start to finish our safari met all expectations. We saw all of the hoped for animals and birds at close range. The driver/guide seemed to know everyone and worked the radio to keep tabs on the latest sightings. My husband said he was also a terrific driver and how we were driving in long wheel base Land Cruisers which are more comfortable.
The drives were varied and breaks were spaced out to ensure our children did not get bored or frustrated. The guide was equally helpful in engaging and entertaining the kids. Our youngest delighted in learning a bit of Kiswahili.
I would fully recommend Cubs Expeditions. It provides great value for a really amazing safari, you're in safe hands, plus you're supporting the local economy.
Asante sana Cubs expeditions. Tulipendi sana safari yetu. Kila la kheri kwa siku zijazo.

Amazing safari
I had an amazing time in Tanzania - Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire parks. The communication with Humphrey was great, he explained everything and was waiting at the airport to pick us up. He also dropped us at the airport for an early flight. Our driver and guide Omani was very experienced. He tried his best for us to see all the animals and always answered all questions. His animal knowledge was extensive. The cook Emmanuel cooked delicious food, accomodated vegetarians, we never went hungry. I highly reccommend Cubs Expeditions as it's great value for money, they are realiable, great service. Thank you again.
