10-day safari
5/5

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.

Amazing 10 day safari
5/5

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!

Great tour and great hosts. We saw all big five in first hand and experienced beautiful nature
5/5

Great value for money. All team, made of young guys, from the manager Humphrey to the guide in Arusha Fidelis not forgetting the guide in Serengeti (Magic) Mike were simply amazing. Making the experience even more rich and special. The tour in Arusha going to a boat trip in the lake, seeing the beautiful green water and ending in the kilombero market, buying the masai sandals was suoer fun. The wild life in Serengeti and Ngorogoro was just so beautiful, we saw all the big 5 and much more. Some sceneries just like national geographic.

I definitely recommend this company for organizing a safari tour.
5/5

I definitely recommend this company for organizing a safari tour. A very flexible company, adjusts your tour to your possibilities and desires. We were met at the airport, brought to the safari on the same day, we were able to join the group. The driver was wonderful. The safari went perfectly. accommodation and food good. We saw every possible animal, all the big five. After the safari, we were met and placed at the hotel. You will make the right decision if you choose this company!

Our expectations were exceeded!
5/5

Our very first safari experience! And we were not disappointed - quite the opposite. The value for money was great. Both the organization in advance and on site went smoothly for us. We even got to know Humphrey as our contact person on site. He was always available and informed us daily about our pick-up times, which were always adhered to. The 3-day tour was super nice to start with and perfectly adequate for our taste, as the many unique impressions blow you away anyway. Simon, our safari guide, was a kind-hearted person who always catered to our needs and enriched our "game drives" with his knowledge.
Surprisingly, we slept every night in a room with a private bathroom in a "lodge" instead of in a tent as we had originally thought. After the long and tiring days we were always very happy about that. The accommodations were always to our satisfaction. The food as well During the safari as well as in the evening in the lodge was always very tasty and rich.Especially the very first accommodation after arrival and pickup from the airport was one of the best accommodations of our entire stay after 14 days in Tanzania (Arusha&Zanzibar).

However, you should be aware that on a "group tour" you will be put in a car with other tourists who may have actually booked a safari with other providers. That seems to be quite normal there Consideration was given to different price categories or booked tours. However, one has the feeling that the different safari providers and least of all the guides can have little influence on this. We were therefore with the same people on 2 out of 3 days On the last day we were lucky enough to be on our own.
In Tanzania, things are different than you are used to, so you should take the motto "pole pole" to heart, as you often have to wait. Unfortunately, we had other group members whose pick-up organization was not as good as ours worked, so we often had to wait for them. However, since they booked through other providers, they also paid significantly more and finally experienced the same "safari" with us. We would therefore recommend anyone who is satisfied with middle-class accommodation to book an inexpensive safari like this one from Wildlife Oasis Tours/Cubs Expeditions. Because the experiences are unique anyway!

5/5

The 4-day Safari trip has been amazing because of the following:
Humphrey for his service and information. The excellent variety of lunch and dinner provided. And the passionate tour guide James who informes you with a smile!

Highly recommend this if you want the experience but have to consider your budget.

Perfect trip to Tanzania
5/5

A perfectly organized trip including a 4 day safari, visit to African tribe and climbing Kilimanjaro. Everything was organized by WhatsApp with Humphrey who was always available to explain and answer questions. We payed upon arrival and everything was included (transfers, food, camping, guides etc). We were also happy to support a local company from Tanzania. We would 100% recommend to organize your personalized trip with Cubs expedition.

Reliable and efficient
5/5

My partner and I booked our tour last minute, and Cubs expedition was able to accommodate us. Every part of the trip was thought out and took a lot of pressure of booking off our hands. We will be using in the future! Thank you!
