Thrilling
5/5

We just returned from an incredible 6-day safari with Lulu in Uganda and Rwanda, which mainly included a golden monkey trek, a gorilla trek, a chimpanzee trek, jeep and boat safaris, and a guided tour of Kigali (where our trip started and ended). The entire trip significantly exceeded our expectations – both in terms of the incredible wildlife and nature we encountered and the overall experience.

Our two drivers, Audence and Smith, were outstanding. (We switched drivers partway through due to a personal emergency, but Audence was equally excellent.) Both demonstrated genuine hospitality, deep knowledge of local culture and wildlife, flexibility, patience, and genuine warmth. They're also safety-conscious drivers completely focused on giving us the best possible experience. Both made us feel comfortable to ask them for anything we might have needed help with. Also noticed that both had good relationships with the rangers at the respective parks, which helped ensure our positive trek experience.

We spent most of the trip with Smith, including on the safaris, and he has an exceptional eye for spotting wildlife – even animals camouflaged perfectly in their surroundings. Beyond that, Smith made real-time adjustments to our itinerary based on weather and other conditions to maximise our chances of seeing the animals on our wish list. His attentiveness meant we didn't miss a thing. More anecdotally, things like playing music we like in the car or stopping on the way for us to take a look at animals Smith spotted while driving between locations made the drives very pleasant and comfortable.

We're genuinely grateful to both Smith and Audence for making this safari so unforgettable!

Lulu Safaris gave us an unforgettable Uganda trip — and Simon Peter is a brilliant guide!
5/5

We have just returned from a 10-day safari through Uganda's major national parks with Lulu Safaris, and the single biggest reason it exceeded our expectations was our guide, Simon Peter.
Simon was outstanding from the moment he met us at Entebbe. He is a genuinely safe and confident driver on some very demanding roads, always calm and never in a hurry, and he knows the parks inside out. His eye for wildlife is remarkable — he found animals we would have driven straight past, and he always positioned the vehicle so we got the best possible view and photograph.
What made the difference, though, was how much he clearly cares about his work. He explained the wildlife, the ecosystems and the local culture with real enthusiasm, answered every question patiently, and was flexible whenever we wanted to change plans or stay a little longer somewhere. He was also excellent company: warm, funny and completely professional throughout.
We would recommend Simon Peter without hesitation to anyone travelling in Uganda, and we hope Lulu Safaris values him as much as we did

An Unforgettable Adventure in the "Pearl of Africa" – 10/10!
5/5

Uganda was, without a doubt, one of the most incredible trips of my lifetime! I went with not so high expectations, but the reality was completely different. Expect true off-road with the car. I absolutely loved every single moment of this trip.

What made it special:
The Wildlife Encounters: Trekking to see the mountain gorillas in Bwindi and the chimpanzees in Kibale was a deeply emotional, bucket-list experience that I will never forget, sitting 1m away from the silverback is something awesome. Trekking near giraffes and zebras is also something irepetable.

Great Landscapes and wildlife: The scenery is incredibly diverse, changing from the powerful Murchison Falls and classic savannas to the stunning, serene crater lakes like Lake Bunyonyi. Great parks, we loved Queen Elizabeth most because here we have seen all the big5 there in less than 2 hours, we were lucky for sure.

Authentic Safaris: Boat cruises on the Kazinga Channel and the Nile offered spectacular views of elephants, hippos, crocodiles, and unique birds without the heavy crowds of other destinations. We have seen hundreds of hippos, spectaculary big and dangerous wild animals.

Food: If you are into trying new food, local food, nothing will harm you there, the taste it is just different with what we were used at home. I have eaten everyday some sort of local food, some of them tasty, some not my kind. However, you always have options for international cuisine, so rest assured.

Accomodation: we stayed in some really nice lodges along the way, very clean everywhere, with trained personell, good options for food and drink. Internet is not everywhere available inside the rooms, we bought some eSim with internet data and the issue was solved. Network covereage I would say it was in 95% along the way.

Security: Perhaps one of the big question marks before travelling. Well nothing went wrong, during the 11 days there we did not feel at any point to be unsafe, quite the contrary.

Bottom line:If you love raw nature, wildlife, and authentic adventure, Uganda is a must-visit. I came home with a full heart and a massive desire to go back. Highly, highly recommended!

And on top of these all was Sam, our guide, that was extremly well prepared, very nice and polite, well educated person. He was able to tell us all kind of stories about the country, kingdoms there, history, animals, birds, etc. Without a doubt he enhanced the quality a lot.

GO! GO! GO!

Unforgettable trip
5/5

Lulu Safaris gave us the opportunity to discover Uganda through a well-planned and complete itinerary that allowed us to experience the country's nature, its wonderful people, and its rich culture.

We were incredibly lucky to have Audence as our guide. He made this journey even more special. He is an outstanding driver, a fun travel companion, and a wonderful storyteller who shared with us not only the history and culture of Uganda, but also his extensive knowledge of the national parks and their incredible wildlife.

Throughout the trip, he was always attentive to our requests and needs, making sure we felt comfortable and well looked after. He also handled every unexpected situation along the way with confidence, professionalism, and calm, which made us feel safe at all times.

Uganda is an extraordinary destination, Lulu Safaris is the perfect company to experience it with, and Audence is, without a doubt, the best guide we could have asked for. We couldn't recommend them more highly.

Professional and responsive
5/5

This was one of the best tour companies I have worked with, and I have travelled to over 70 countries. When Ebola caused me to need to change my itinerary at the last minute due to complications with other countries I needed to travel to, Lulu safaris worked with me to find an alternative that would work and adjusted with patience and kindness. My tour guide Audence for the 5 days I spent in Rwanda was outstanding - definitely world class! Audence is a treasure! The entire visit was flawless, thanks to him and his foresight, double checking and meticulous planning. We enjoyed many delightful conversations admiring the long drives, and he always ensured I was comfortable and answered my many questions. If you are lucky enough to have Audence as your driver/guide, you are in for a treat!
