Unforgettable birding safari
5/5

We booked a 2 weeks birding tour for two people. Booking process was smooth and Godwin provided all necessary information. He designed the tour according to the individual needs for us bird photographers. The safari led us through almost the entire country exploring nature by game drives and forest walks. We had two experienced birding guides (Benjamin and Nicholas), who were with us all the time and always eager also to find rare species. Their birding skills were really incredible. Finally we observed 315 bird species during a two weeks trip! This is about a third of all Uganda birds! We did not expect this. Our guides always tried to get us in an optimal position for taking great photos. Aside from the birds, Uganda was also very impressive for its wildlife. Especially the Chimpanzees and tree lions impressed us very much. Accommodation and food was great and staff always very friendly and helpful. Vehicle and all organisations were perfect. The trip was worth every Dollar! I can really recommend Deluxe Vacations Uganda and if you are a birder ask for Benjamin and Nicholas the forest man!

100% recommend, you will have the adventure of a lifetime in the safest of hands.
5/5

We came across this company on Safaribookings.com and in all honesty we were a little dubious to start with booking with a company we had never heard of before, but the reviews were good, the itinerary ticked all the boxes and was competitively priced, so we took the leap of faith and booked, and we were so very glad we did.
From start to finish everything was so well organised and professional, and communication was quick, clear and concise. When it came to planning the trip and itinerary, nothing was too much trouble for Godwin; he understood clearly our requests and created an amazing wildlife and birding itinerary to meet our budget and was very communicative at every step. Then came the actual trip; our guide Emanuel was amazing, always on hand for advice and supporting us through each activity. He was both professional and personable, extremely knowledgeable, and really made our trip that extra special and stress free. The whole trip and every activity lived up to all expectations, highlights being the shoebill at Mabamba Swamp, the rhinos at Ziwa, the chimpanzees in Bodongo Forest and then everything at Murchisons NP, from the powerful and breathtaking falls to spotting lions on the savannah and finding hyenas by flashlight before dawn. In total we tallied 201 bird species and 31 mammals.
We would 100% recommend booking with Deluxe Vacations, you will not regret it, you will be in the best and safest of hands with Godwin and his team.
We will definitely be returning and booking with them again to visit the national parks on the west side of the country.

Everything you would hope a tour operator would supply, info, support, guidance & peace of mind.
5/5

Without the biggest fear dealing with an operator found on Facebook is that it is a scam! & with the need to send £1000`s to pay for it, while the bank is screaming scam,scam is very worrying! Me included. But dealing directly with Godwin via WhatsApp, (calls & messages), almost daily, & some due diligence, I can confirm that Deluxe Vacations Uganda are 100% real & 100% trustworthy. A delight to deal with from start to finish. Keeping us up to date wrt the Ebola outbreak in DRC, which was very well policed in Uganda & we never felt threatened by it.
On arrival at Entebbe members of their team collected our hold luggage while we were held up at immigration. Once through we were met by Godwin & our driver/guide Ema, a quick chat & the bags were loaded & off to our first hotel, (which was stunning).
During the tour the accommodation was excellent. Lovely rooms & food set in glorious surroundings. We do not have a single moan!! Our guide was easy to get on with, good sense of humour & a deep knowledge of his country & wildlife. We were primarily on a birding holiday, so local bird guides were supplied at most locations to ensure we got the most from our trip.
All in all, we can thoroughly recommend Deluxe Vacations Uganda. Excellent communication, service, reliability, itinerary, accommodation, guide & value for money. Use with confidence & enjoy the Ugandan experience.

Excellent, nothing was too much to ask. They went out of their way to make the experience amasing!
5/5

We went on a birding experience with friends for my husband's 60th birthday. From the start Godwin was excellent working out a customized tour that did not only suit our budget but also included all our requests. His communication and follow up on special requests changes was never too much to ask. We did zoom meetings and he gave valuable information not once did we feel that all the questions and demands was too much. When we arrived, they were all at the airport and we almost felt as if we already know them. Emmanual our guide was extremely knowledgeable, patient and went out of his way to always check on us and to make sure we had everything we needed. All our activities and guides assigned to take us out was also hand-picked. When we wanted to add on our program, they did everything possible to accommodate us. Highlights was the Shoebill stork, and the guides had to work extremely hard to show it to us! The Chimpanzees and Gorilla trekking, words cannot explain the feeling and the experience we had you will have to visit to know what this is about. The birding is excellent and all the special touches along the way especially on my husband's birthday made this an experience we will treasure forever. The accommodation and food were also great!!

A trip to remember
4/5

We went for a short trip to Uganda, especially for the Gorilla trek. Deluxe Vacations Uganda planned a great week for us and everything went smoothly. All rooms were more or less ok, except for some minor details. The only bad experience was the last night, where we had some encounters with bedbugs. All in all it was a great experience and we would recommend Deluxe Vacations Uganda!
