Trip of a lifetime made even better!
Bugoli Adventures made our trip of a lifetime even better than expected. From the moment of booking to dropping you at the airport at the end of the tour, they really go the extra mile in everything.
Our guide, Silva, was not only knowledgeable and organised, he was a great person to spend the trip with. He made everything run so smoothly, always making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. He always did everything he could to make each of our tours special, using his contacts and knowledge to make sure we arrived at the best time, went to the best area, or had the best experience.
His attention to detail and caring demeanour was touching. Little details like asking us if we had forgotten anything after leaving each hotel (I had!), cleaning the jeep even after a long day of driving, and making sure it was always stocked with water really showed how much he cared.
The accommodation on the trip exceeded our expectations in most cases, with delicious food provided for every meal, even packed lunches after checkout for the road trips between each place. The staff at each of the lodges were so attentive and kind, as was everyone we met in Uganda.
From the minute I contacted Michael, he was clear, responsive and helpful in everything from advice about the tour route to help with the visa application.
Our group of four thoroughly enjoyed our trip, thanks to Bugoli Adventures. I have already recommended them and will continue to do so!
The best! Thank you so much.

Very professional and reliable, excellent itinerary and the best guide / driver you can ask for!
5 of our life’s most memorable days with game & lake safari, Gorilla and Chimp trekking!
Trekking to see gorillas in Uganda has been a dream for 30 years!
There are very few times that we have been so overwhelmed by landscape, animals, people and all presented by the world class guide and driver Mike!
The whole experience from getting in contact with Bugoli Adventures Uganda Ltd until drop off after the safari has been seamless. Their prompt and very friendly reply to every message or email gave us a very reassuring feeling right from the beginning. They were very communicative and informative around all aspects of the coming trip to Rwanda and Uganda. The packing list of essential gear was a life saver!
We were picked up as agreed at our hotel in Kigali by the driver/guide Mike. During the entire experience Mike was so knowledgeable, calm, happy, confident and social. We would not have had anyone else! He took so good care of us, helping us out and going that extra mile every day. We became “one big happy family” from start! Sharing all meals together and chatting and experiencing all events together really bound us for life.
The itinerary and lodging every day and night was very well organized. The highlights were of course the last day Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi where we met the Mubale family with its two-week-old newborn baby gorilla. Such a memorable and touching moment! But we had several memorable highlights every day during the safaris in Queen Elisabeths National Park and Ishasha, by boat on the Kazinga Channel, Chimpanzee Trekking in Kalinzu Forest and the tranquil last evening on an island in Lake Bunyonyi.
We discovered and saw so many different animals and birds, stumbling upon elephants in the Engiri Game Lodge knocking on the kitchen door! And in between all the incredible people that we met on the way, all the happy children waving and cheering on us! The roads, well, what can we say…. African massage has a completely new meaning!
Observations from us:
There were so many friendly and happy children reaching out and being super friendly during the entire trip. But a lot of them were playing football with no proper ball, they were selling hand-made drawings on cardboard paper and notebook paper. If we had known this before we would have brought a few footballs, some old football shoes and colored pens and paper. So, for you it would be a good idea to inform future clients that if they have space, bring those kinds of things. Also, you cannot have too many small bills, especially a huge amount of one-dollar bills. Dollars work very well if you do not want to exchange your money for local currency.
We are so overly grateful and happy about Bugoli and getting Mike as guide! This has been one of the most memorable trips in our lives!
One off the bucket list!
Thank you so much for these five amazing days!

Great communication and well organized tour.
It was our first time visiting an African country so naturally we had a lot of questions. Michael has been of great support ever since we've contacted Bugoli adventures. He offered clear and prompt communication and flexibility to any of our needs and wishes. I believe he prepared a very balanced itinerary that was feasible but at the same time full so there was always a lot of adventure!
We were also very happy with our driver Bosco. We got along really well, as he was very friendly, funny and welcoming. He brought youthful energy which was just what we needed as we are in our early 30s. He took really good care of us and always made sure we were comfortable and well informed. Highly recommend him!
We took the budget version of accommodation and we have to say we were really pleasantly surprised - it didn't feel like budget, as the accommodation was of good level, not to mention the food that was very tasty and plentiful. All the accommodations took great care to accommodate us and our sensitive European stomachs :-)
On a general note, we would like to stress that Uganda is completely safe to travel, especially when you travel with an agency like Bugoli. There has been a lot of fuss regarding ebola this summer, and even though Uganda is now completely free of ebola already for a couple of months, even if there would be an outbreak, travelling with Bugoli made it safe, as the drivers and accommodations made sure you were always in low risk situations.

An Unforgettable Gorilla Trekking Experience with Bugoli Adventures in Bwindi
I had an amazing experience with Bugoli Adventures during my Gorilla Trekking trip in Bwindi, Uganda.
From the very first contact, everything was extremely well organized. Communication was always clear and friendly, from arranging the schedule and all the details of the trip to the hotel pick-up and transportation to Bwindi. The entire process was smooth, punctual, and stress-free.
The accommodation provided was excellent, very comfortable and in a beautiful setting, and the meals were also great. Everything was carefully arranged, allowing me to simply enjoy this incredible experience without having to worry about logistics.
A very special mention goes to my driver, Skihango Silva, who was a huge part of what made this trip so memorable. Besides being an excellent and very safe driver, Silva was extremely friendly, kind, and pleasant company throughout the journey. Spending so many hours on the road becomes part of the experience itself, and having someone like him makes all the difference.
People like Silva are a huge asset to a tourism company. A great itinerary and good organization are important, but it is the people you meet along the way who can truly transform a great trip into an unforgettable memory — and Silva definitely did that for me.
I highly recommend Bugoli Adventures to anyone planning a Gorilla Trekking experience in Uganda. Excellent organization, hospitality, accommodation, food, and, above all, wonderful people.
Thank you, Bugoli Adventures, and a special thank you to Silva for making this incredible experience even more memorable!
