Professional, great price and perfectly executed trip
Peter helped plan a busy trip (Kenya safari, visiting orphanage and a wedding proposal) with great care and quickly. The trip was wonderful from beginning to end. We particularly liked the care taken for the various ages of those in our group. Edward our driver was very personable, caring and made our experiences that much better. Would highly recommend.

Great Safari Experience with Shinzelle Safaris
We could’t be happier to have chosen a Safari with "Shinzelle Safaris", the overall experience went just beyond our expectation!
Brandon and Danielle are very professional, friendly
and very prepared about guiding you through the safari.
We had a fantastic impact since the beginning before booking it, the communication with Danielle was always very efficient and precise about any matter and it continued during the whole journey.
Danielle is a really good chef and she has prepared only dishes based on our preferences.We loved it.
She did a great job to make our self comfortable like in our own houses and we appreciated that very much.
Brandon is a professional guide, very prepared about wild animals living in the park and you can see he is doing his job because he loves it!
Thanks Brandon’s guidance and experience we were able to see all the Big 5 plus the magnificent 7 in few hours, which was an amazing experience!
We totally recommend to experience a Safari with “Shinzelle Safaris”, you wont be dissapointed!
Thank you again Brandon ad Danielle to have made this tour unforgettable!

Nice organizer of our trip. Very honest
Our tour guide Robert was very good. we enjoyed our vacation. He had very good contacts to find animals. Only disappointment was hotel location. it was not at prime location.

We had the time of our life !
We three friends did the 9 nights Kenya safari from 23rd August 2017. The planning by Nadzua was impeccable and her correspondence prompt and polite. She along with our gude/tracker/driver Issac met us at JKIA Nairobi and we went on our way to Amboseli, Naivasha, Masai Mara and Nakuru (in that order). And what an experience it was - we saw the Big 5 repeatedly, thanks to Issac! This guy is high energy, knowledgeable and tireless. He would sniff out big and small animals where we would have found nothing.
The quintessential Kilimanjaro, Acacia and the Elephants at Amboseli was exactly as seen on TV. During our 2 nights stay, we saw a very large pride of about 25 lions which even the experienced guides and drivers said they had never seen before. Lake Naivasha with its Hippos (some of whom came grazing into the hotel lawns) were a delight to watch (albeit from a distance). Masai was a vast lanscape, teeming with wild life and we were lucky to catch the migration twice and even a zebra/crocodile drama (luckily the zebra escaped). We rounded off the trip with white & black rhinos and flamingoes at Nakuru - perhaps the most idyllic place amongst all that we saw.
The choice of lodges/hotels by Buymore were very good - full board. The choice of food at these places was wide and appetising. All the coordination work done by Nadzua was top class.
Issac (the Masai) is the guy to be with in Mara and some day if were to return or recommend to a friend, it would be him that we would insist upon as guide.
Thanks to both, we had a great time !

4-days safari- Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongou
Beautiful Parks with lots of wildlife! Geofrey the owner was quick to respond to emails and very accommodating. He arranged for late night airport pick-up and an extra night at Arusha Tourist Inn. Safari itself was well managed. The guides took us close to the animals. The cook prepared good meals and took care of my dietary restrictions.
For a camping safari, this was very well setup. I had a great experience and would highly recommend Geoffrey and his team for anyone looking to experience Tanzanian safaris!

Well organised & incredible experience
Cuan and African Ubuntu were a pleasure to deal with. Cuan provided all the options and made recommendations that were perfect for our group.
The safari tour was awesome and the camp itself surpassed all expectations.
For any person or group seeking to arrange a trip to Africa, I highly recommend Cuan and African Ubuntu.

One of the best safari tours I've done
Awesome! I was a solo traveller and the company provided me with a great driver who spoke excellent English....Mr. Xavier.... and was very knowledgeable about wild life, history, culture of Uganda. He is a great guy who was excellent in every possible way. Always on time, the 4 WD was clean and tidy, kept me entertained and informed about everything. Excellent and safe driver. Attended to all my needs even without asking.
The hotels were great...Sapphire, Kampala...a bit off the road but the food was excellent. Huge rooms with all amenities. Haven lodge in Bwindi...omg...awesome! Simba safari camp...fantastic and great staff! Igongo, Mbarara....the best ever....5 star...great room, food, shopping....truly amazing.
Gorilla trekking was hard but I am proud to say I did it! Photographed a family of 12....14 km hike up steep slopes. Queen Elizabeth park was good but animal density was rather low. But Mr. Xavier showed me the salt making area, fishing village, crater drive and a very secret little twin lakes off the regular track. had an awesome experience with local kids...bought books and stationary for the whole village! I am very happy...Thank you Xavier. Jinja was great....the Begining of the nile...omg....my dream came true! Cruise on Kazinga channel was awesome....plenty of wildlife...elephants, Hippos etc. etc.
Finally the company....Ms. Hajarah was not only efficient but was super quick and made the ideal trip plan for me. Thank you Hajarah....You are great.
The smoothest trip ever....I have been to 53 countries, mind you! Traffic in Kampala was terrible but Xavier and I got a lot of time to chat about everything from politics, history, culture, family etc. etc. He made everything look so awesomely easy! Great travel companion. Excellent driver not only in the wilds but also in the city! Thank you all at Simba! You will always be on my mind.

Experience of a lifetime with abundant wildlife sightings
African Ubuntu Safaris were great to deal with via email. Cuan would always promptly answer all my questions, and I did ask him many questions! The transfers and flights were all arranged to perfection and the guides and drivers that we dealt with, whilst in Africa couldn't do enough to help us out. The safari itself was fantastic and the animals that we saw were amazing, way above our expectations. The balloon flight over the Serengeti and helicopter flight over Victoria Falls were some of the best parts of the holiday.
I would not hesitate to recommend African Ubuntu Safaris to anyone wishing to experience amazing Africa
