Amazing tour!
We had the most incredible experience during our private 2 - day tour, with the best guide Geeman. We got to see almost every animal in the park, including all of the big five! Geeman really made an effort for us to see so much we possibly could.
Some unexpected things happened like cars getting stuck in the mud but Geeman did his magic and we got out of there. Seriously couldn’t be happier with our guide, so professional and an amazing driver!

Uwanda Tours is professional, responsive and gave us a tour that exceeded expectations!
Uwanda Tours and Safaris is an exceptionally professional company and Salumu was very responsive and patient during the planning stages our our trip. He guided us through every question and made perfect recommendations for our 10 day safari in the southern circuit of Tanzania, despite it being "rainy" season. The flexibility, open-ended possibilities if we needed to reroute due to rain was very reassuring. Our guide, Emanuel is extremely knowledgeable, and guided us through very long journeys from one place to another (Dar Es Salaam-Mikumi-Udzungwa-Nyerere-Dar Es Salaam) with amazing driving skill (we chose drive the distances to see the country, long but worth every minute), exceptional knowledge about every single inch of every park, knows everyone and is extremely friendly and strong (no problem on rough roads, long drives, hard to spot animals). Everything was perfect, and definitely do research with different types of lodges or tented camps that suit your interests as there are several options inside the parks and outside (we recommend lodges inside the parks to be closer to the animals). The ONLY suggestion we have is if anyone chooses the driving route to these stunning areas of Tanzania, to request a safari truck with reclining seats if possible. The drives are spectacular and there is so much to see along the way and you don't feel the time, but could use the recline to rest along the way. The lodges, the parks, the people, the scenery...makes a world of difference with the right guide! Thank you for the most incredible memories and we will be back!

The team is very welcoming and helpful.
Our tour was barely in the middle of March for 7 days. I can say one wow! With such a colossal driver and guide as we had, Collin's tour could not fail 5☆ out of 5. He took us everywhere, told us so much about animals, environment and culture. Like we got everywhere and saw so much. Always concerned about our well-being and allowed us to enjoy this beautiful Safari tale. Even the accommodations were excellent for the budget option we chose (hotel showers in Naivasha are better than expected - no tiles or broken). But the most impressive accommodation was at the very end - at the foot of Kilimanjaro. We felt at home there and with such a charming view. The food in all of them was also excellent and delicious. The only thing that I would probably not recommend is to visit the village of Masai, which we visited. It looked more like extortion of money from the residents, where the money was transferred from the beginning, so to speak, what to show you... it was unpleasant. But that was just one unsightly drop of tar in this beautiful event. Thanks to the Safari team and a special thanks to Collin.

Could not have wished for a better first time safari experience
We had an absolutely amazing time in Masaai Mara! Our driver G-man was simply the best. He took us for quite an adventurous ride around the park where we got to spot every animal of the big five and lots of other animals. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed our two day trip. Definitely well spent money!

Promptly Reliable
We booked two day safari at Krugar National Park. Megan Warrington was our planner. She gave us many options to select from & made necessary changes per our request. I would highly recommend them for your trip to Africa.

Excellent Tour Operator
I did the Golden Monkey and Mountain Gorilla tour with Kaara Adventures. I dealt with Jovia leading up to the tour and she was very easy to deal with while planning the trip. Gerald was my tour guide for the trip, he was very kind and resourceful, he also ensured the entirety of the trip went as planned. I highly recommend booking with Kaara Adventures

Incredible Experience climbing Kilimanjaro!
Can’t say enough good things about the guides we had on our trek. Our trip had gotten postponed for two years because of Covid so we were very eager to get started once we arrived in Tanzania. Our guides including Gasto, Joe, Jeff, Simba, Wilfred, Jackie, Matthew, Samwell, and many others were so friendly and very knowledgeable on all things Kilimanjaro. They treated us with respect, set an awesome pace for the trek, provided incredible food/water/first aid service, as well as just being good genuine people who are looking to help us achieve this goal. With their help, I reached Uhuru Peak on 14Sep2022 and I couldn’t be more thankful to have had them there along the way! Can’t say enough good things about the guides and the trip in general. If you are thinking about hiiing Kili, then I highly recommend. It’s an experience you’ll never forget!

Absolutely amazing! Made such a difference in the trip. Anyone would be lucky to have him.
Good communication before and during the trip. The process was smooth from reaching out to them to arriving there and dropping us off at the airport. I would highly recommend their services for the Safari. Very knowledgeable team and guide.
