14 day safari Excursion without Dav Safaris
My wife and I just returned from the Dav Safaris 14 day Wildlife Safari in Uganda. We enjoyed every excursion we went on in the 14 days. There was a wide variety from driving and walking safaris to cultural experiences and of course chimpanzee and gorilla trekking. The gorilla and chimpanzee trekking was outstanding experience. I also highly recommend visiting the Karamojong village in Kidepo as well as the Batswana Community in Bwindi. Every lodge we stayed at was very nice and the Ugandan people were very friendly. Our guide and driver for 14 days, “Jungle Jeck” was very punctual with time and we felt very safe on the Ugandan dirt roads with him. Probably Jeck’s only downfall is he is not real personable but after spending 2 weeks with him I figured out that’s just his personality. The negative aspects about our trip were the itinerary When the drives say 4-6 hours you better expect 8-9 hours. The itinerary is too crammed in of places to go for a ilittle bit of time. We drove 5 hours to Beautiful Lake Bunyunyl, arrived at 530 pm and left the next morning at 730 am. It really was not a sufficient time to enjoy it. Also we drove to Hoima , arrived at noon and did nothing all day. That to me was a waste.of time.Many of the lodges only offer 1 choice of entree for dinner , so if you are a picky eater you end up eating cookies in your room. Reagan, the owner, sent one of his employees to the first lodge I was staying at to collect over$7000 dollars that they said we still owed which was already paid in advance so make sure you receive a receipt for all your payments.All in all we enjoyed our trip with Dav safaris, I strongly feel that Reagan needs to update his itinerary to be more realistic with the travel times and maybe 1 less place to visit so you can spend a little more time at the others. Please don’t let this Ebola outbreak in the Congo affect your trip to Uganda. We felt very comfortable and safe there. The government of Uganda are taking measurements to keep the country Ebola free.!

Great trip
Everything was very well organised and all went to plan
Our driver ,Godfrey, was a big help making sure we got everywhere on time, encouraging us to try local foods,taking us through stunning landscapes and being an excellent safari guide.
Seeing the gorillas up close was an amazing experience but we thoroughly enjoyed the whole tour.
Would highly recommend

Reliable operator for a unique Gorilla experience.
First reliable, your money is safe. Your program is carried out as agreed upon. Permits are secured on time. You will have a safe driver and reliable vehicle. Meals are included in the lodges, lunches sometimes a la carte. Good lodges, good situated. Always a choice in meals and friendly staff. Drivers/guide, Godery joined me, are well informed and feel responsible for their guests.

Helps make your dreams come true
We booked a 7 day Uganda tour with Dav safaris, and it was just amazing! The accommodation was beyond expectations!
Our guide, Solomon, did that little extra for us! He stopped the car at nice viewpoints so we could take pictures and took us on a super quick extra gamedrive just because a lion had recently been spotted, and he really wanted us to see it! We also managed to see it again on the planned afternoon game drive! He really did his best to find all the animals we wanted to see, and patiently waited for us to finish taking all the pictures. Also, when we were too late for our first afternoon game drive (because of traffic out of Kampala) he let us have it the next day.
We managed to see the big 5 on the tour. The 7 days were packed with activities, so we were always tired, but very happy, at the end of each day.
Communications was always fast with the company.
I would definitely recommend Dav Safaris and Solomon! Thank you for an incredible trip!

The tour FAR exceeded our expectations
Even before I came to Uganda I was impressed by how quick and promptly Reagan answered all our inquires and how well organized all steps of the booking was. We had a 7 days tour inluding Zhiwa, Murchison Falls, Kalinzu Forest, Queen Elizabeth NP, Bwindi and Lake Bunyonyi and it was absolutely incredible. Our guide Solomon went out of his way to make our trip as enjoyable as possible and he made us feel very safe and taken care of every step of the way. He is such a kind, polite and sweet person and you can tell he is very passionate about his job. The lodging and the meals were all top notch. The game drives were fantastic, we saw so many animals and beautiful landscapes. Solomon prepared us well for the gorilla trekking and it was absolutely mind blowing. The tour was perfectly organized down to every single detail! Would I come back to Uganda, I would definitely travel with Dav Safaris again.
