Professional and exceptional from the start to the finish.

5/5

From the moment I decided to go to uganda I read many reviews and Buyaga seemed to come out on top. I am so pleased I chose them. Peter was extremely helpful every step of the way with planning, permits, money transfers, with great communication. I felt totally at ease with the whole process.
When I arrived I was greated by the most gorgeous gentleman, Apton. I spent 12 days with this guy. We laughed, shared stories, and made a great friendship. His knowledge of the culture, history and biology is incredible. I learnt a lot. I trusted him every step of the way and he was always on time, ready to go. I highly recommend him as a guide/driver.
Then there was the tour itself. I have travelled a lot and never have I experienced a trip as amazing as this. Uganda is full of fantastic surprises. I can't imagine there is a place or tour better. The only thing I can think of better is to do it all again. Worth every cent. If you are trying to decide who to go with, trust me, Buyaga is 100% spot on. Ps im a female solo traveller

A once in a lifetime trip

5/5

Coming to Uganda was a dream come true for us. After a bit of research we contacted Buyaga Safari. Peter was always on time and quick in replying and offering support. The itinerary was the most complete with the best price. It did not disappoint!
We met with our incredible guide Gavis and we started a 12-day tour including all the must-see in Uganda. Our itinerary icluded Murchison Falls, Kibale Chimps tracking, Gorilla tracking, Golden Monkeys and Lake Mburo. We started and finished in Entebbe though we could have started in Kigali as well.
We stayed in various different accommodation while always enjoying a true Ugandan experience. Lodges vary in style and amenities but for the very fair price we had it was perfect for us. Of course you need to adjust and enojoy wilderness but I do believe that this is also a fundamental part of the trip itself.
Transfer across different sights might be a bit long but we really enjoyed driving across Uganda and seeing its lush landscape and lively cities. Gavis made us try and enjoy all the richness of its country with delicious fruits and was always ready to share with us curious and fun facts.
He accommodated all of our needs, even during Gorilla tracking, we hoped to be assigned to a closer family and he made this happened. His attention and knowledge improved our experience and made this trip unforgettable.
Excellent organization at a very fair price. Trust them with your trip you will not be disappointed!
A special thanks to Gavis who was fun, informative and always ready with a smile :)

Amazing tour with Anderson

5/5

This tour exceeded my expectations. There’s no need to state how amazing Uganda is, this is obvious. But the company and constant assistance from Anderson, my guide, has been a real game changer. He’s been 100% helpful in everything from day 1 until the very end, I felt always taken care of, he promptly assisted me with any need and he’s also a very nice person to spend time with. He always went the extra mile to make all activities outstanding. I couldn’t recommend him and the company more. All the programme was perfectly respected. The hotels were very good and the food as well. Thanks Anderson again, you’ve made Uganda a real success ! Best. Guido.

Anderson was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable!

5/5

Never in my wildest dreams did I think this trip back to Africa would be better than all the other trips I've ever been to! Not only did I have superior service the entire time, we went the pace that was good for me As I was the only one on the tour! Not only was a price exceptionally fantastic, I did not have to pay for double occupancy. Nor was I grouped in with a bunch of random people! There was so much to see and do in such an amazing environment. Besides getting to see an experience chimpanzees and gorillaz in their natural h a chat which was breathtaking, I was given the opportunity to truly see everything that Uganda has to offer. We are often told one side of a story in the world and unless you go to the country itself you truly do not know what it's like unless you are there first hand. Not only did I feel completely safe.The entire time , I felt cared for at every single place that I stayed at.

A memorable safari in Uganda

5/5

Unforgettable trip to Uganda with Buyaga Safari – 15 days of wonders!

From August 7th to 22nd, we experienced an extraordinary journey through Uganda thanks to Buyaga Safari, booked by Nakupenda Africa Tourism. The organization was flawless, allowing us to explore breathtaking landscapes, enjoy close encounters with wildlife, and immerse ourselves in the local culture.
During the trip, we were lucky enough to spot the Big Five, an unforgettable thrill!
Most notably, the encounters with primates, especially the mountain gorillas and chimpanzees, were deeply moving and unique—truly some of the most memorable moments of the entire itinerary.
The accommodations were excellent: comfortable, well-maintained, and perfectly integrated into the surrounding environment. Each lodge or facility contributed to making the trip relaxing and enjoyable after full days of excursions.
The food was consistently delicious, offering a perfect balance between local dishes and more European-style options, always well-prepared and varied. A real pleasure for the palate!
A special thanks goes to Osman, our guide, who maintained an extremely professional attitude throughout the journey. He was always helpful, knowledgeable, and attentive, providing detailed explanations about the local flora, fauna, and culture, and proving to be a skilled and cautious driver, always mindful of passenger comfort and safety.
We highly recommend Buyaga Safari to anyone looking to discover Uganda in an authentic, safe, and well-organized way. Thank you for making our trip so special!
