Outstanding
Everything about African Ubuntu Safaris was outstanding. From the communication in booking our holiday (a massive thank you to Diederik for putting our itinerary together) through to the guides, accommodation, food and experiences with the wildlife, particularly the gorillas and the habituation day with the chimps, we couldn't have wished for a better holiday. Will definitely book with African Ubuntu Safaris again.

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

Everything went better than we ever expected
After trying some local travel agents, we realised that travel in Africa requires specialist expertise. I searched the internet and saw many positive reviews about Ubuntu. As soon as I spoke to Cuan, he filled me with confidence. He knows Africa and he knows about travelling in Africa. From our rough plans, he put together a fantastic itinerary, including all of the main features that we wanted to see. He made it all fit together and flow and everything went exactly as planned. We loved working with Ubuntu. We were kept informed all along the way, the admin side, payments, bookings etc, all went smoothly and the trip was a dream. We even met Cuan in Victoria Falls, which was great! Travel in Africa can be problematic and difficult, especially when you try to squeeze six countries into a month, but it all went without a hitch and we enjoyed every moment. If we return to Africa, and I suspect we will based on our firs experience, we will be using Ubuntu Tours.

The recommendation for a tour that never happened
We never got to go on our safari in May 2020. We were looking forward to it but COVID prevented us from doing so. We would like to thank Cuan though for working with us to keep within our budget and put together what we believe would have been a wonderful personalised trip. We would also like to thank Cuan for working tirelessly for us to get our monies back. We are certain that he worked above and beyond for this. If this is the service that is given to a new client, then we have no hesitation to recommend African Ubuntu Safaris to anyone who is looking for a very reputable tour company. Thank you once again.

Cuan & his team are amazing
Just returned form our second visit to Kenya, both organised by Cuan & African Ubuntu Safaris. In 2013 we visited Amboseli & the Masai Mara, Cuan did such an outstanding job organising the trip for us as first time visitors that it was never in doubt we would book with him again for our second trip. This trip saw us visit Laikipia and the Masai Mara staying at Kicheche Laikipia & Bush camps. The camps were amazing and the travel between camps organised very efficiently. Unfortunately we didn't get to see all we wanted on this trip but that is the luck of the draw on safari, no guarantees. Kenya was in the middle of a bad drought so much of the wildlife had moved away looking for water. We were disappointed not to see the painted dogs in Laikipia but we did get to see all our favourite cats in the Mara, Fig,Malaika,Nolari and the lone Oloololo boy. We hope to return in 2017 and will of course be booking with Cuan again. I would highly recommend African Ubuntu Safaris to anyone contemplating a trip to Africa.

Professional, knowledgeable and delivered my dream trip to Uganda
To start with, by the time other travel agents had emailed me back, Cuan had already sourced and organised an ideal trip for me to Uganda, a primary objective being to see the Mountain Gorillas. Despite the immense challenges of the last two years, Cuan kept me updated regularly.
The trip itself certainly exceeded my expectations - especially as a solo traveller I was a little apprehensive. From the time I landed in Uganda to the time I left I was taken care of by exceptionally friendly, professionals from Wild Frontiers. The accommodation was outstanding - stunning rooms, locations, scenery, staff and food. All such great places to relax between the utterly incredible treks / safaris to see the amazing animals Uganda has to offer. The treks (I did two) to see the mountain gorillas were just surreal - there is nothing else on earth like seeing these stunning gentle giants in their habitat. Trekking to see the chimps in Kibale Forest was a close second.
I can highly recommend Cuan at Ubuntu African Safaris to ensure you have the best experience possible in Africa. Very knowledgeable, professional, friendly and great attention to detail.
Thanks again Cuan for a 5⭐️ Trip !
