Amazing safari experience in Mikumi!
We are extremely glad we picked Zed for our safari! Everything from booking to being dropped off in our hotel was done in a professional way. The staff was always responsive, friendly and informative.
Fido, our driver/safari guide, was amazing! It was very easy spending three days with him, always ready to talk with you and answer your questions, but also giving you privacy. He is very knowledgeable about the animals, the different parks, and his country.
The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and in good shape.
Zed managed our hotel booking with the Tan Swiss Lodge, a very nice place to stay close to the Mikumi Reserve, and arranged all transfers and details for those three days.
While Zed is a small safari company without much information out there, we were very satisfied with their services and we would recommend them to anyone!

An unforgettable adventure - with the best tourguide I have ever encountered!
If you are planning a trip to Africa, you must visit beautiful Uganda - "the pearl of Africa".
And if you simultaneously are looking for an amazing trip, with loads of experiences of both the local and cultural Uganda you should choose to travel with Cul Tours and Safari!
I visited Uganda from the 9th of April to the 1th May 2014, and I have completely lost my heart to this beautiful country and it's wonderful hospital people.
Being a member of a group of six people, I had an unforgettable tour which included three days of Safari, dancing in a little village, chimpanzee trekking, visit at Murchison Falls, a tour at the kings tombs in Kampala and a much much more.
I have tasted the best food together with local people, slept at the most amazing hotels, talked to all kinds of people in different ages, and have had an amazing time - all thanks to Cul Tours and Safari, without them it would not have been possible!
Throughout the whole trip we all felt welcomed and taken cared of by our tour guide Stephen Bukoma who became a very dear friend. Cul Tours and Safari planned the whole tour after our wished and by their knowledge about Uganda.
When you choose Cul Tours and Safari, you can be sure that you will get a tour operator, who wants to give you the best experiences, as well as good company and a guide who knows Uganda by heart.
I will definitely recommend you to choose Cul Tours and Safaris, I can not emphasize the company enough and I have also recommended them to friends, family, and work relations in Denmark.
There is no doubt in my mind, I will come back to Uganda again and I will definitely go with Cul Tours and Safaris.

I had a great experience with Kilimanjaro Vacation Company. My guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. There wasn't a question I asked that he couldn't answer. I highly recommend this company!

I would highly recommend Fantastic safaris as your tour organizer if you want to visit Tanzania.
My wife and I took the 6 days private camping safari through Fantastic Safaris. We contacted this company based on a Excellent reviews we found here on the safaribooking. We contacted Fantastic safaris, and heard back quickly from Abdallah, who gave us all the information we needed. We found the price to be very competitive, and were happy with the planned itinerary. We were given a day by day itinerary and the price was reasonable and he gave us options for either sending through bank or western union we decided to send through western union because it was faster and easy. They provided us the fantastic car with a fantastic driver who was reliable and a bold, intelligent guide who often surprised us with unexpected sightings. He found the big 5 for us to observe and photograph. Overall, I would highly recommend Fantastic safaris as your tour organizer if you want to visit Tanzania.

What a great time we had ...
We booked a 6-days tour starting early in January 2015, including safaris at Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro, Moshi with Kilimanjaro and finally Zanzibar. In addition, we played a round of golf at the brandnew Kili Golf Course.
Many thanks to the entire team, especially to JOAO who was an excellent organizer and to ALLEN our guide and driver,
Joao was very helpful with his expertise, his recommendations and prompt responses on our inquiries.
Allen was an excellent guide and an experienced driver. We obtained a lot of informations - not only about nature and wild animals - but about the country, the culture, the people and their life as well. That's it what we liked so much.

Unforgettable trip; saw all the Big 5!
Excellently organised trip by Esmail from Safari Big 5 which incorporated all our needs (including our complex dietary needs) at a very reasonable price. We did a 5 day safari covering the 4 famous parks of TZ; Tarangire Park, Serengeti Park, Ngorogoro Crater and Lake Manyara Park. Our friendly driver was skilled at spotting all the animals we were interested in seeing including the big 5 and the wildebeest migration. It was incredible how close we were to the animals, especially the elephants and the giraffes. Our accommodation was amazing and we spent a couple of nights in tented camps in the center of the Serengeti close to wild animals and a few nights in a beautiful lodge just outside the parks. We would highly recommend using Safari Big 5 to all our friends and family.

magnificent safari
My husband and i really enjoyed travelling with Kiboko Kenya. Our 5 days safari was the best experience, Lake nakuru National Park, Maasai mara and Amboseli National park. Clare never got tired of our questions, she described everything in details as we required. Our expectations were really fulfilled. We would recommend Kiboko Kenya anytime.And we will definetly travel with our kids through them.

stunning, trustful and affordable journey
This company is a local company. It mattered to me to get through a local one and not through another European swindler that would only make profit on the back of people of Tanzania for the same thing.
An outstanding quality of service and sense of taking care of the customer. Flexible company able to make up all kind of safaris according to one another's expectations (from the camping to the super luxury lodges, anytime from the reception of the program, anywhere in Tanzania with the possibility to get whatever you want to be happy,...).
They know how to analyze people. The guide, the cook and the director were always here for me to make sure that I had a safe journey and make my dream come to life. You have the possibility, as I did, to stay with the locals and have lunch, diner with them (they appreciate a lot and they share even more : Real priceless extra experience though) or just isolate and relax quietly. You feel like being a spoiled king with all the unspeakable landscapes, meadows, animals etc. For the rest, please go ahead, take a flight ticket to Arusha and then William will take care of you. You will have the same result for at least 30% less than a jumbo international company.
By my side, next time I do a safari I will for sure context them again wherever I am.
Thank you Bramwel really.

Fabulous adventure
Thanks to Nick for the most amazing adventure. Nick was fabulous, entertaining and a wonderful source of knowledge. He organised the most epic adventure that saw us travel over 3000 kms through Namibia, Botswana and Zambia. We climbed ‘Big Daddy’ the tallest dune in Sossusvlei in the Namib Desert, went on an amazing desert adventure with Tommy, safari’ed through Etosha & Chobe viewing the rich diversity of wildlife, in fact we saw over 46 mammals interacting in their natural environment not to mention the wonderful bird life, sipped cocktails on the banks of the magic Kwondo River, meandered through the Okavango Delta watching hippos, swam in the Devils Pools at Victoria Falls and so much more. We stayed in a variety of accommodation from glam camping to pole huts and a luxury lodge just outside Etosha National Park. The three weeks went so quickly it now seems a blur. Nick is a vet and a conservationist, plus a really nice person. We were two families with 8 in total. We learnt so much and saw so much because of his incredible knowledge and understanding of the wildlife.

Travelling in Africa now sets the new standard for flawless organisation
Travelling through Kenya and Tanzania seemed a big scary thing before we did it. By the end, we became completely accustomed to the smooth machinery operating in the background, the fantastic accommodation and seamless transfers that just seemed to happen as if by magic. After our initial meeting with African Ubuntu, Cuan was able to recommend and configure a trip that ticked all our boxes. Accommodation and style of travel was exactly as we wanted, and in terms of wildlife, by mid-morning on the first day we'd seen more than we'd dare hope for the entire trip, and it just got better from there (we'd safaried in Zimbabwe before). In this age when you can easily book for own travel online, Cuan revalidates the role of the travel agent by firstly listening to what you want, and then drawing on his deep experience in the region and knowledge of local operators. Highly recommended.
