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 with the best
I thank Humphrey for everything he has done for us! I will never forget his kindness and professionalism! The safari could not have gone better thanks to Iddi who guided us, explained and above all who took care of us! Issa was our cook, we ate like at home! His legendary smile and his kindness touched me so much! I recommend Iddi and Issa for your next safari you won't regret! Thank you for making me live this dream and see you very soon!

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.

We had a magical time from the start and until the end of our stay! Humphrey took care of us like we were family! Issa our cook prepared amazing meals for us, we ate at the safari like in a 5* hotel! Thanks to Idi who was our driver and guide during our stay, with his knowledge of animals and his driving experience, we had a magical safari! We will be back and we will choose Cubs Expeditions for our next Safaris! If you want to see the big 5 with a full stomach, ask for Issa and Idi for your trip!

Marvelous.
The safari trip exceeded our expectations. Although we were a bit hesitant before arrival, once in Arusha everything went smoothly and resulted in an unforgettable trip. The staff are very service minded, warm and well structured. We got well cooked meals with great proportion and variety. Our guide was originally from a masai village and gave us invaluable knowledge about the area, wild life and its people. We cannot ask for more.
Perfect and cheap
Nice tour to Serengeti and NGORONgoro, good food, good driver, many different animales, And very caring travel agent Humpry. Asante sana!!!

Just great
I planned the safari at short notice and got in touch with Cubs Expeditions and 2 other providers. Communication with Humphrey from Cubs Expeditions was very transparent and friendly, which is why I decided to go on a 3 day safari with him.
Starting with the airport transfer, everything worked perfectly on site. The safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro was just fantastic. We all saw the Big 5 and the food from the in-house chef was excellent.
After the safari I booked another tour (Materuni Coffee Tour) through Humphrey, which was also quite nice.
Cubs Expeditions is definitely trustworthy and 100% recommended.

Perfectly organised and very lovely!
The pick-up at the airport and hotels were perfectly organised and very well chosen. The guys were lovely to us, answered quickly to any messages or questions and helped us wherever they could. Also, they drove us to Moshi the last day instead of the airport. Very good experience!
