Extremely helpful, professional & created an amazing life long experince for our group of 11 people.
Our tour was designed for 11 people- all who had varying expectations of "where to go & what to see".
Cuan did an incredible job in creating a tour that catered for everyone's wishes & requirements .
Due to Cuan's knowledge of Africa & his professionalism, we did not encounter 1 problem in the 34 days that we were away.
Each camp that we stayed in was unique, all were very comfortable & very different in what they offered - allowing us to have a great experince of a variety of cultures & animal life.
We would highly recommend anyone wishing to go to Africa to contact African Ubuntu to discuss their travel plans.

A totally magical country to visit for nature lovers
We never tire of visiting South Africa for business and pleasure. After a dozen trips and several safaris, we're already planning our next. Safari Bookings helped us this time, with seamless care and attention at short notice.

Very helpful at every stage of choosing where to go & then booking the whole trip.
Very easy to contact and answered all questions no matter how trivial they may have been. Great service & the safari tour organized exclusively for us delivered everything that was promised & lots more. An unbelievable & incredibly positive experience.
Wonderful experience
I have wanted to go to Mara forever and my dream came true last year. And it blew my mind - the wildlife, the landscape and the general feeling of being in the wilderness; in the midst of such incredible beauty. I cant put that feeling in words, all I now want to do is go back and feel that wind in my hair and take photos of every possible inch! The experience of a lifetime, an absolute must do.

Botswana Okavango Delta Tour was Excellent!
Our family had an outstanding experience with Impala Tours on the 5-day Okavango Delta Tour! Our guide Maselino was fantastic and very patient with our two children (ages 5 and 6). We loved the quiet Gcadikwe island and the Third Bridges Camp....although at the latter while we were away on safari the baboons managed to unzip and invade our tent! The wildlife experience was phenomenal - we had hippo grazing outside our tent and a giraffe that walked right by while we were sleeping; we saw lots of elephant and a large variety of antelope; and best of all, we were lucky enough to see a leopard on a morning stroll. We saw lots of lion prints and could hear them roaring at night, but we never actually saw them. Overall, the experience was awesome and every bit worth the price - very good value! Thank you to the whole team at Gcadikwe for your unbelievable hospitality and most especially to Maselino for the once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Beyond expectations
Beyond expectations. We went for a nine day safari with African Starpal Safaris and it was a great experience. We went to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo east and west.
When we first got in contact with them Paul the manager answered always very fast on my questions and that made me to book with African Starpal Safaris.
After booking we kept good contact till we arrived at the airport in Nairobi. Unfortunately one of my bags did not arrive, but Paul went beyond his efforts to look a few times at the airport if the bag might have arrived.
On the safari everything went well our guide Boniface showed us all the nice places in the parks and we saw loads of animals. Not once I had the feeling being unsafe in the minivan.
We booked a medium accommodation package and all the hotels were of surprising good quality.
Also the food in the restaurants was nice. A few it was a la carte dining, but mostly it was a buffet.
I can highly recommend African Starpal Safaris and the great guide Boniface to anyone who likes to come to Kenya. They gave me and my dad a holiday to remember for a long time
Kind regards,

Review about Selenkay Conservancy by Glenna
Selenkay Conservancy is just outside Amboseli, although the animals you see there vary slightly. We saw many more giraffes and smaller animals in the bush than in the wide open plains of Amboseli. At watering holes we were able to see zebras, elephants, warthogs.. incredible experiences to see these majestic animals up close. We were thrilled with our accommodations and guides at the Porini camp.

Amazing wildlife sightings enabled by seamlessly organised itinerary.
I admire and wholeheartedly thank Cuan of African Ubuntu Safaris for putting my vision of a safari into reality. Given my "basic" wishes, he devised a safari that suited both our animal sightseeing wishes and took our required levels of comfort and privacy into account.

The beat of your heart
South Africa has such great experiences to enjoy. The ocean and mountains in Cape Town makes one feel as though you found a hidden secret in the world. The beauty and calm that one experiences is certain to be a memorable journey. Go dolphin chasing in on a kayak, drive to Cape Point through Chapman’s Peak, watch a sunset off of signal hill over looking the ocean, ride up a cable car to Table mountain, climb Lions head, a winelands tour are just to name a few. Plenty more things to do but do not miss out on staying in the Cape. I highly recommend for a 1st Safari to go to Kruger National Park and make sure you have a guide. I used Wild Wing Safaris which was very reasonable priced but you can go to more expensive places too. Your guide is key to tracking and making sure you see the Big 5 and many animals. Pamper yourself in relaxation at The Saxon Hotel in Johannesburg before your long journey back home. It’s a masterpiece of a hotel with great food, spa and absolute luxury. No question you will fall in love with South Africa!
Review about Amboseli National Park by Glenna
Amboseli has a wide variety of animals and birds, capped off by beautiful views of Kilimanjaro. We saw so much more than we ever thought we would and the landscape is beautiful - it seems to change every few kilometers! We stayed in the Porini camp and couldn't have been happier with everything we experienced.
