5-Day Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara Safari from Arusha

Une expérience inoubliable, Aziz notre guide était super, il a tout fait pour nous montrer un maximum d’animaux. Et quel plaisir de déguster les bons Khalid après une journée à sillonner la savane. Le parcours Tarangire, Serengetti, Ngorongoro et Manyara est vraiment une bonne option qui permet d’observer un maximum d’animaux dans des environnements et paysages variés. Tout était vraiment bien organisé et facilitant pour déconnecter et profiter au maximum de cet instant unique.

Over 20 years ago I spent a year volunteering in Arusha and during this time did a five day safari with a local company that I was able to select based on local knowledge. This time around I had to pick a company based on internet searches and reviews so was slightly mindful whether I would have the same experience as before. To my delight, Cub Expeditions - a Tanzanian owned company - met my expectations and then some. Humphrey, managing director of the company, was attentive to my needs and budget from the outset. He listened to what I wanted and responded with an itinerary that was suitable for my young family. Our driver/guide and chef were equally attentive and flexible to the needs and patience of my 3 and 6 year olds. Halid was an amazing chef who ensured we had three hot and tasty meals a day. While other safari companies served sandwiches for lunch, Halid served up three course meals of deliciousness! Our kids loved every meal. From start to finish our safari met all expectations. We saw all of the hoped for animals and birds at close range. The driver/guide seemed to know everyone and worked the radio to keep tabs on the latest sightings. My husband said he was also a terrific driver and how we were driving in long wheel base Land Cruisers which are more comfortable. The drives were varied and breaks were spaced out to ensure our children did not get bored or frustrated. The guide was equally helpful in engaging and entertaining the kids. Our youngest delighted in learning a bit of Kiswahili. I would fully recommend Cubs Expeditions. It provides great value for a really amazing safari, you're in safe hands, plus you're supporting the local economy. Asante sana Cubs expeditions. Tulipendi sana safari yetu. Kila la kheri kwa siku zijazo.

Just returned from an amazing 5 days group safari. Humphreys is very reliable, extremely helpful and quick to respond. It was a bit concerning to pay upfront for the whole safari but Humphreys delivered on his promises. I was traveling solo but the group worked out very well. His helpful services continue even after the safari ended. Thanks Humphreys!
