Pomelo-Ibis have extensive knowledge about the trips and the care about the tourists is excellent
Activity wise,Pomelo-Ibis we’re always on time including pick ups
The guided tours were knowledgeable as they endeavored to give us history on places we visited…
The accommodation plus meals that were arranged for us were good
I and group had an excellent trip with pomelo-Ibis

The experience was magical
The accommodations for the first night of our stay was sketchy at best !!! - when we transferred to our "tree house" camp, the accommodations were as expected and honestly, a step up from where we stayed the first night. The tours were fantastic - the drives/guides were knowledgeable and the vehicles were great - we spotted all the animals we wanted to see (except a Leopard) - was a great time of the year to go on Safari (warm days and cool nights/mornings) - also, since it's outside of the "rainy" season, the vegetation made for great animal spotting! Overall, the experience was fantastic!

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 Times in Africa
Our safari started in Victoria Falls when Musa picked us up and introduced himself as our tour guide and driver. Musa was amazing and I can't speak highly enough of his knowledge, care of us and his sense of humour. Having our own personal guide and being able to negotiate our activities was wonderful, albeit we took part in all the activities he had planned anyway. However, when we needed to purchase something he always took us safely to the best place. Our trips in the car between lodges and hotels was so informative as he had a wealth of knowledge about Zimbabwe, the people and also was knowledgeable about other African countries.
The animal safaris in Chobe and Hwange were everything we had imagined and more. Our accommodation was comfortable and varied, ranging from lodges to a safari tent. The food offered at all places was simple, but delicious.
The activities planned outside of safari rides were enjoyable and informative - Dinner cruise on the Zambesi River, afternoon cruise on the Chobe River, visiting the Painted Dogs Information Centre, Elephant Shopping Area, Victoria Falls and visiting a subsistence farm.
Africa Uncovered are to be congratulated for providing such a great experience.

Quite a good tour
We visited lake Mburo National Park with JM Jungle Safaris. This one day tour was one of it's kind. We had a stop at the equator and this was spectacular standing on two hemispheres. The guide had to much information to the extent that I could not believe this is Uganda. We went for a game drive at the National park and it was interesting seeing lots of animals. I recommend that more people should take this trip to have such an experience

Clear communication
Our guide Pako came to khwai and guided us there for 2 days. We saw some leopards real close. Pako took his time to answer all our questions

Africa safari 2023 good experinece
In general we are happy with the tour, the guide and assistance. Information with booking and afterward was correct (except one). Guid edid his best (Mr Clement) and get to see what we want.
If a few points would not have been - resulted in 5 stars but.
Qualitty of the mini van. Spring of min one wheel poor and this resulting in non confortable driving
Screw set out at the door resulting in several arm injuries and due to movements etc not to avoid sharp scratches...
Booking in Masa Mara change to other lodge and this was not mediore or luxury but budget. I can understand an overbooking can happen but minimum to discuss this with the client (us)... I can easily survive budget but do nt likle is as paid and book more luxury...
But is general we are happy .
