Amazing trip throughout the pearl of Africa
Great organisation by SEMU Gorilla safari and tours before even reaching the country. Edinson was helpful and reply to all my questions within minutes via WhatsApp. Excellent communication throughout the process (regarding accommodation, activities, payment etc.).
We were awaited at the airport upon arrival by Edison who introduced us to Jimmy Mukasa our guide for the tour.
Jimmy was super dynamic from the beginning, explaining a lot about the country, the journey and the activities ongoing. We had a lot of fun with him, he was both professional and friendly. He made us discover the country from his local perspective, trying local food (we shared millet bread, matoke, kitafeeri, Enturire etc.). Jimmy was caring and made every demand possible. If you need something, Jimmy will make it happen !
I would 100% recommend both the organization and the guide.

Fully recommending Semu Gorilla agency and our guide Jimmy
The trip fully lived up to our expectations. All the planning, activities, and transportation were exceptionally well organised and executed. The company provides best-in-class communication—always just a WhatsApp message away. They were extremely reliable and consistently made sure that everything was arranged in our best interest.
We were especially lucky to have Jimmy Mukasa as our guide, who truly made our trip memorable. He has exceptional leadership, influencing, and problem-solving skills. If you need something, you simply name it, and he will find a way to make it happen—even when it seems impossible. If something is taking too long, no worries—Jimmy takes care of it in a matter of moments.
Beyond his professionalism, Jimmy is incredibly caring and has a wonderful personality. He was always happy to explain important facts, share useful tips, and introduce us to new experiences and flavours. His passion and dedication made every moment of the trip even more special.
Without a doubt, this trip would not have been as memorable without Jimmy. We are incredibly grateful for everything he did and would highly recommend him as a guide.

Wonderfull 16-days safari in Uganda with Semu Gorilla Safaris and Tours!
We booked a safari with Semu Gorillas Safaris and Tours in June 2026 and had a fantastic 16-day trip through Uganda!
Uganda was on our bucket list for years and we had some specific wishes in our visit. We were recommended Semu through Facebook and from the first moment the contact felt very good and trustworthy. Semu helped us fit everything we wanted to do during the trip in the timeframe we had and their responses to our questions were always fast. We had some of our own ideas, but we also were well advised on what not to miss by Semu. Also when one of us got a knee injury right before the trip and there were some concerns about Ebola, they reassured us and took this into account.
We would like to give special thanks to Jimmy, our fantastic guide and driver, for our unforgettable time in Uganda. Jimmy made sure we were having a good time with his stories about Uganda, his humor, his big smile and his knowledge about the animals, nature and life in Uganda. He always made sure we were okay and we lacked nothing! Jimmy took our trip to a next level and made sure we saw everything we came for! Even though it also depended on nature, like he would say :) We enjoyed traveling together with Jimmy, spotting animals, doing mango stops and being a good team and of course having a lot of laughs together! he made our Uganda dreams come true!
Uganda is characterized by its diversity in landscapes and nature. This, together with countless types of animals and friendly locals makes it a highly recommended travel destination and a must visit. The nature is breathtaking and everything still looks unspoiled. It’s impossible to choose the best between so many highlights. The memories of our trip in Uganda will forever put a smile on our faces.
We highly recommend booking a Safari tour with Semu Gorillas Safaris and Tours. Trustworthy, helpful and worth every penny! And definitely don’t forget to ask for Jimmy :)
Lots of love,
Wouter and Bo
Exceptional service, unforgettable experience
My experience with Semu gorilla safaris was amazing from the very beginning, where they were flexible with my starting date and location. Communication was easy throughout the process, and I felt genuinely cared for once the tour began. The safari was worth every penny, and my tour guide Jimmy went above and beyond to provide welcoming, personalized service for an unforgettable experience. Thank you!!

Reliable Organized Tour Operator
We enjoyed an excellent four day tour of Lake Mburo and Queen Elizabeth National Parks in early May with Semu. The parks and lodges were quieter at that time of year, which made the experience even better, and the weather cooperated throughout. We were fortunate to have Edison join us, along with Jimmy, our driver and guide. From the earliest planning stages right through to the end of the trip, Edison provided clear, helpful information and always responded promptly.
For our budget accommodations, I was pleasantly surprised by Mpogo Lodge — it was outstanding. Our second stay at Engiri Game Lodge offered a different charm: the huts were simple but comfortable, and the atmosphere was wonderful. We were even treated to daily visits from elephants wandering through the property, which was such a memorable highlight. Meals at both lodges were very good.
The itinerary kept us busy, with several activities each day. We saw an impressive variety of wildlife, thanks in large part to Jimmy’s sharp eye — he often spotted animals long before we did. Although the drives from Kampala to the parks were long, they were enjoyable, with plenty to see along the way. Our guides did everything possible to make the trip smooth and enjoyable.
We added an extra day to visit Jinja and the Source of the Nile, and it was absolutely worth it.
Overall, it was a fantastic trip filled with lasting memories. I highly recommend booking with Semu.
