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!

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.

Experience unique
We got Humphrey's contact on the recommendation of a friend. We wanted a 5 days safari and I have to say he was very good organizing our tour. Always present, he is ready to answer all our questions, he has helped us in times of difficulty and I highly recommend him. As for the safari, it's a very unique experience and blew us away. The guide, Walhoo, accommodated us and managed to show us everything we dreamed of, not to mention the truly excellent cuisine.

Amazing experience with four days tour
They picked us from airport and next day, we started the four days tour in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. We could see various animals including five stars. It was spectacular experience. Our stay in camp site was comfortable, we could use electricity and hot water.
The guides (Humphrey and Amos) were kind and flexible for our request and I enjoyed a lot.

Impressive Safaru
Jonas is the most incredible guide I have ever been with. He has worked his ass off so we can see the big 5 and have an amazing experience. The organization is quite good and the food is amazing. Also the chefs and everyone have been very kind

A totally amazing experience
The safari has been great: we saw all the animals in the Serengeti Park and Ngorogoro Crater. The guide and driver did an excellent job, as well as the chefs and the rest of the staff. Campings and accomodations were also appropriated and allow us to enjoy an unforgettable experience. Totally recommendable!!!

really well organized
I did a three day group sharing safari with this company and it was really nice. The communication with Humphrey was really good and alway, when I had questions or a little problem, he was always by my side and helped me. If you are searching for a low budget safari, in which you have al the efforts, a safari can have, this company is a really good choice!
