Above and beyond!!
Our safari trip with Nsavi in Uganda was truly spectacular! Contact and planning were incredibly smooth, thanks to great support of Victoria. There was no issue to optimize the itinerary. During the trip we never felt rushed, fully enjoying every stop and its attractions, everything was planned seamlessly.
The selection of hotels and activities (like coffee tour, community visit, Rhino sanctuary etc), was excellent. Our game drives were expertly prepared, with the best spots to track animals.
Jasper, our tour guide, was the absolute highlight. His knowledge and open personality made all six days feel like spending time with a good friend. We enjoyed every minute of time together.
We fully recommend Nsavi Safaris and will definitely book with them again!
Very helpful trip planners - knowledgeable guides and flawless details for planning
Nsavi was the perfect tour operator. Using a local company meant a lot to us and Sara had every detail planned perfectly even though our itinerary changed several times. Our guide Jacob was also incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.

Professional with excellent service
The service was excellent right from our pick up point in Kigali and drop off in Entebbe. Our guide, Steve went out of his way to show us things that we were interested in, making various stops for photos shoots.

Exceptional tour company that provided excellent service and support
We could not be happier with this tour company. From beginning to end, NSAVI took very good care of us by answering all of our questions, planning wonderful lodges for our tour and ensuring our safety and comfort. The trek itself to see the gorillas was an experience of a lifetime. The permit allows you to stay with a gorilla family for a hour. The park rangers and porters were excellent and very professional. The porters actually assist with pointing out where to step to prevent from falling into mud or when climbing the hills through the jungle.
Our NSAVI driver and guide Steven was absolutely excellent. He expertly navigated the transport vehicle (a Land Rover) on the highways as well as the unpaved mountain roads. He was very professional and always timely and supportive. The company Director Sarah was extremely helpful when we had to make some itinerary changes and always communicated quickly. She even came to meet us in person when we checked into our final accommodation before our flight home. We highly recommend this company.

Professional, personalized, once-in-a-lifetime!
Beyond all expectations!!!!!
The tour organizer, Victoria, was accommodating, prompt, detailed, and thoughtful! Our guide, Jacob, seemed to intuitively know how make our time in Uganda simply perfect. He helped blend our cultural experiences in such a safe and friendly country with the wonderment of Ugandan wildlife. Words cannot express how this trip impacted and impressed me with all that I learned and saw! Incredible!!!!! Everything was incredible!!!!

Victoria from Nsavi Safaris is the best!
Victoria is clearly one of the best tour organizers in the world. Her communication is outstanding, always responded promptly to any questions and emails and she did changes and customize the tours in any way I wished. Her professionalism and flexibility make her truly exceptional!
Our driver and tour guide Alex was also great. Intelligent, funny, friendly and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time and got everything we needed.
Uganda is one of the few places in the world where you can spend time with mountain gorillas, do chimpanzees tracking and also embark on a safari to encounter elephants, lions, and leopards. And all of this in just a few days.
I highly recommend Nsavi Safaris!

Fantastic gorilla and chimps safari in Uganda
This was a great safari from Kampala to see the gorillas in Rushaga at Bwindi Impenetrable NP and then on to Kibale NP to see the chimps. The primates are very well habituated and therefore it is a real experience and they are very relaxed and playful.
Sarah is probably the most efficient lady in the whole of Africa! She is very responsive and was also able to to sort out some visa issues that I experienced.

Perfect gorilla safari
We had a great time using Nsavi Safaris! Relatively short time before our travel, we reached out to multiple safari companies, but only Nsavi was able to provide the gorilla safari. We are very thankful for all the excellent support from Victoria during planning of the trip, and also from our guide Francis during the actual trip. They were easy to communicate with, well connected and provided an experience of a lifetime. I can highly recommend Nsavi Safaris!! :)
fantastically efficient and friendly service
Considering I was booking directly with a Ugandan company from England there was a certain element of faith that everything would go swimmingly. What would happen if there was no one to meet us at the airport? How would we get our money back? The efficient and prompt manner in which Nsavi personnel responded to my emails was a true indication of their professionalism and everything went according to plan. The drivers/guides were fantastic and the whole trip surpassed our expectations. I hope more travellers choose to book directly with companies in the country to which they are travelling and spend their money with the actual experts of their own country, rather than throw thousands at UK companies like Audley who just use these companies anyway and throw thousands more on to their own bill.

Trip of a lifetime!
I dealt with a few different tour operators on our trip to Africa, but Nsavi was by far the best! We booked a gorilla trekking safari with them and it was absolutely incredible! Their communication was excellent, Sarah always responded promptly to my questions and emails which made booking and coordinating our trip much easier. She came and met us at our hotel before we headed to Bwindi and was great at ensuring everything with our trip went smoothly. Our guide Lambert was great! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the region. Seeing the gorillas was a magical once in a lifetime experience that we'll never forget! On our return to Entebbe, the flight arrived earlier then expected due to weather and the plane schedules, which was no problem. To our delight, Sarah arranged for us to go to a hotel for the day (until our flight later in the evening) where we were able to rest by the pool and have lunch, and even arranged a driver to return us to the airport. This perfectly illustrates how Sarah and Nsavi went above and beyond to make sure we had an incredible experience on our trip! I'm really happy and feel very fortunate we were able to have such a wonderful gorilla trekking experience thanks to Nsavi!
