We decided on the 19 day Kubwa Five safari of Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania in July 2025 because of their great reviews, they operate in multiple countries, and are a Uganda owned company. A guide from another tour company advised you pay more using a travel agent. I’ve been to Southern Africa and Tsavo west in Kenya before, but this was by far my best trip. In Uganda we met the friendliest people with smiles on their faces. I’m 70, so comfort was important and we chose the top end hotel option. Most were very good, some better than others. I found Wise the best low cost way to transfer payment. Highlights of Uganda included Murchison Falls, Chimpanzees in Kibale, Gorillas in the Bwindi impenetrable forest. The Batwa cultural tour and orphanage visit moved us. Our Uganda guide, Mustafa has been driving for 8 years which is important as some of the roads can be bumpy with no signs. Mustafa was outstanding, going out of his way to make sure we enjoyed our trip. He found tree climbing lions in Murchison Falls and shoebill storks on the last day driving back to Entebbe. In Kenya we saw an abundance of wildlife on the boat ride at Lake Naivasha staying at one of the best hotels, SOPA. The balloon ride in Maasai Mara was another memorable experience. We were apprehensive at first. Once floating gently above, we saw herds of wildebeest and zebra, along with lions with their kill. The cultural visit to the Maasai Mara was disappointing as they asked for money for everything although we got a taste as to how they live. I bought a lot of souvenirs to be shipped to Australia and could have used some advice on how to bargain. It was a long bumpy ride from Kenya to Tanzania where we got a new driver. We tried twice unsuccessfully to see the wildebeest crossing the Mara river at the Maasai Mara and northern Serengeti. I convinced my wife to go on the early morning drive in the northern Serengeti where there are fewer safari vehicles. We were rewarded with an incredible experience, herds of Wildabeest crossing the crocodile infested Mara river. Our driver got us in a great position for taking photos. Not once did we feel in danger from animals or people. We hardly had any insect bites, perhaps because it was the dry season. We were put in the group of gorillas not requiring a long hike and it only took 5 minutes to spot them. If you love nature, wildlife, and meeting people of different cultures and have an adventurous spirit, Kubwa Five is for you.

Good overall experience
We did the Maasai Mara tour. The staff of Kubwa 5 is excellent and replied back promptly and made sure all my questions and concerns were taken care of.

Friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.
Our trip was truly an incredible experience for our family, that we will never forget. All of our needs were catered for and we got to see and experience everything we wanted to. We had many highlights on our journey including the visit to the Rhino Sanctuary and the boat ride along the Nile. Overall a memorable and enjoyable 3 days.

Experience was more than expected
My wife and I had the great opportunity to check a trip off our bucket list. In August, we traveled from western New York to east Africa. Our first stop was in Uganda to be one of the few to experience a gorilla trek. For those who do not know what a gorilla trek is, we hiked through the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in search of a family of mountain gorillas living in their remote natural habitat. After several months of research and scouring reviews, we chose Kubwa Five Safaris to make this experience a reality. We chose a two night, 3 day tour which started at the Entebbe International Airport. The road trip from the airport to the camp in Bwindi was about 8 hours, but the time went by quicker than you would think. I would like to give thanks to our driver and guide, Charles, for keeping us entertained and accommodated every request we had. He was with us for all three days. We always felt safe and knew from the start that we had a very professional and organized safari company. Due to our later airport arrival, we arrived at our accommodations around 10 pm. Kubwa Five Safaris reserved the Agandi Uganda Eco Lodges and we could not be more pleased with their choice. I believe that these accommodations were considered a mid-range price point. Agandi Uganda was absolutely beautiful. The employees were very friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our experience was unforgettable. They kept the restaurant open and all the staff on property until we arrived. The food was amazing and we had to thank the chef personally for the great meals we received. The manager knew we were on our honeymoon and decorated our room with romantic decor and a personalized message in flowers on our bed. The chef also baked us a delicious cake and we reenacted feeding each other as we did at our wedding. On our second night, the owner of Kubwa Five Safaris, Joseph, met us after dinner to discuss our experience thus far. He was very pleased to hear that his company had exceeded our expectations. As we spoke, I learned all about his company and the variety of safaris his company provides. The prices that were discussed were right on the mark, but it's the level of service that, in our opinion, sets Kubwa Five Safaris above the competition. He explained that he not only provides gorilla trekking, but big five safaris in Kenya and Tanzania and much more. My wife and I came to the quick conclusion that we would re-visit. I know, after speaking with Joseph, after the wonderful experience we had with Charles, and the great stay we had at Agandi Uganda, that I can honestly, 100% trust and recommend Kubwa Five Safeties. We cannot thank them enough for our experience.
