Our 7-day safari with Ozon Light Tours exceeded all our expectations!
Communication with Deus before our trip was always prompt, friendly, and professional. He patiently answered all our questions and made us feel completely at ease long before we arrived in Tanzania. Once we were there, he was always available whenever we needed him and took care of everything immediately. The transfers between the accommodations and to the airport were perfectly organized, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy our dream holiday.
Our guide, Allan, was absolutely outstanding and truly made this trip unforgettable. We couldn't have wished for a better guide. What impressed us most was his incredible ability to spot wildlife. He always seemed to know exactly where to go and somehow managed to position our vehicle perfectly for every sighting. Time and again, we were among the first vehicles to arrive, giving us breathtaking, unobstructed views before other vehicles gathered. He was also incredibly patient during our endless photo sessions and always made sure we had enough time to enjoy every special moment.
Thanks to Allan's experience, knowledge, and dedication, we were fortunate enough to see an incredible variety of wildlife and learn so much about Tanzania's unique ecosystems. Some of the highlights included a pair of black rhinos walking right along the road in the Ngorongoro Crater, witnessing the Great Migration with thousands of wildebeest crossing a river, and two unforgettable leopard sightings. Every day brought new surprises and unforgettable moments.
The accommodations selected by Ozon Light Tours were also excellent. We especially loved the beautiful tented camp in the Serengeti with its exceptionally friendly staff. After the safari, the relaxing beachfront bungalows in Zanzibar provided the perfect place to unwind and reflect on our amazing adventure.
We wholeheartedly recommend Ozon Light Tours to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. If you have the opportunity to travel with Allan as your guide and Deus as your tour coordinator, consider yourselves very fortunate.
Thank you, Allan and Deus, for giving our family memories that will last a lifetime. This journey was everything we had hoped for and more. We will never forget this incredible experience and sincerely hope to return to Tanzania one day!

A truly authentic and unforgettable safari experience
From start to finish, everything was well organized and we didn't have to worry about anything. The safari guides were fantastic and always did their best to help us see as many animals as possible. Their knowledge made every game drive exciting and unforgettable.
The homemade dinner was another highlight and absolutely delicious.
Overall, it was an unforgettable experience and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic safari.

Perfect Experience
I traveled alone on this trip, and everything was perfect. The accommodation, meals and prices are well-matched. Our guide and group members were all incredibly friendly. The journey went smoothly and brought me lots of joy. This tour is super safe and female-friendly. What’s more, free hotel transfer service is provided, which saved me a lot of trouble. I highly recommend it to solo female travelers!

Great Service from Carolyn and Pallid Safaris. Great Safari
Carolyn W provided exceptional service in evaluating options and booking our safari. We visited 4 parks. Our driver and guide, Simon, was exceptional.
I highly recommend Pallid Safaris. I am booking a second tour with them now.

An exceptionnel experience thanks to a dedicated guide, Silas Nassary.
What an incredible experience! We booked a 10-day safari with Luwai Safari Tanzania, led by Silas Nassary, and it far exceeded all our expectations. From the very beginning, Silas took care of every detail, creating a seamless itinerary through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Central and Northern Serengeti. The lodges were exceptional, offering every comfort you could wish for after a day of adventure.
What truly made this safari unforgettable was Silas himself. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife and parks, his passion for conservation, and his genuine commitment to ensuring we had the best possible experience made every day special. His ability to spot animals, share fascinating insights, and tailor the experience to our interests turned an amazing trip into a once-in-a-lifetime journey.
Luwai Safari Tanzania is a family-run business founded by Silas and his wife, and their dedication shines through in every aspect of the experience. They are trustworthy, professional, and genuinely care about their guests. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and we couldn’t have asked for more.
There is absolutely nothing we would change or criticize. It was an 11 out of 10 experience, and we would recommend Luwai Safari Tanzania without hesitation to anyone looking for an authentic, unforgettable safari in Tanzania.

A Thrilling, Unforgettable Experience!!
My wife and I are from the St Louis area in the USA. We had never visited Africa, so I carefully researched safari providers. After looking through numerous itineraries we settled on Kubwa Five’s “THRILLING 18 Day Safari”.
The itinerary takes you through the Big Three East Africa countries, Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, to see not only The Big Five and Great Migration, but also Chimpanzee and Gorilla trekking. It includes visits to five national parks in Uganda, four in Kenya, including the Masia Mara, where we saw the Great Migration, as well as three parks in Tanzania, where we saw the breath-taking Serengeti.
When Kubwa Five said this would be a THRILLING safari they did not disappoint, it was THRILLING indeed. My wife is a photographer and took over 20,000 photos during this 18-day odyssey that brought us face to face with a silver back gorilla and his family, a large family of Chimpanzees (so close they rub against you as they pass by), numerous lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, warthogs, buffaloes, birds, crocodiles, hyenas, you name it. You are thoroughly immersed in nature, more than you can ever be in any zoo, no walls, no plexiglass, no bars, no nothing, just you and these amazing animals in THEIR natural environment, you are the outsider (this will ruin your visit to any zoo, forever…sorry).
In addition to the animals, you will be given the opportunity to participate in the cultures of East Africa, including visits to pygmy and Masia villages, as well as day to day life in a small village in Uganda. I encourage you to embrace this aspect of the tour, it will change you!
From the start, Betty Alum, in the front office, was easy to deal with and very responsive to all of our questions and concerns. At one point, we considered skipping Uganda altogether due to the Ebola “scare” (which is all it was), but Betty reassured us (correctly) that they would take good care of us AND THEY DID! Getting through customs both in Africa and back into the USA was a snap, thanks to the pre-coordination of Kubwa Five and their outstanding guides.
Speaking of the guides, they were very knowledgeable and committed to giving you a first-class experience. Samuel Kansansula in Uganda had twelve years of experience as a guide and it showed, everything was thoroughly explained and we felt well taken care of under Samuel’s guidance. In the Masia Mara, our guide brought along a Masia tribesman who showed us all the best spots in this amazing park as the Great Migration unfolded in front of your eyes. In Tanzania, Ayubu Luhala, who has 15 years of experience guiding tourists in the Serengeti, did an outstanding job of getting us to those unique, little-known places to see some mind-blowing wildlife and an unforgettable sunrise over the Serengeti right out of The Lion King.
If you are looking for a great, well organized Safari experience, look no further than Kubwa Five!

Excellent 12 day sojourn in Rwanda
I found Golden Rwanda through Safari Bookings, and had a very good experience working with Frank to tailor the itinerary, and then had an amazing trip with Rando as my guide and driver. My trip included Chimp trekking in Nyungwe National Park in the south; two relaxing stops along Lake Kivu in the west; Gorilla trekking and hiking in Volcanoes National park; traditional game drive safari in Anagera National Park in the east; and finally a day in Kigali before flying home.
Rwanda exceeded my expectations in terms of the beauty of the entire country -- it reminds me of Hawaii but at higher altitude -- and the national parks are super-well-managed, a real treasure. The gorilla and chimp trekking were the highlights, something you can do very few other places, but the safari park was very good too, seeing an enormous number of species of birds and trees and flowers, and getting close to larger animals like gibbons and rhinos and crocodiles and zebras and giraffes and hippos, etc., in a much less crowded setting than I found a dozen years ago in Kenya and Tanzania.
My tour with Golden Rwanda included all the transportation, lodging, guides, admissions & permits, and meals, for a price I thought was fair. I highly recommend working with a travel company that is based in the country you are visiting, rather than one based in the US or Canada or Europe.
