A Five-Star Ugandan Adventure with Tubale Safaris!
A Five-Star Ugandan Adventure with Tubale Safaris!
My recent 5-day tour in Uganda with Tubale Safaris was simply unforgettable! From the moment I contacted them, Annette the tour consultant was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure my trip was perfectly tailored to my interests. Her attentiveness and knowledge made planning a breeze, and I knew I was in good hands.
During our trip amazing guide Brian truly brought the country to life. His expertise, enthusiasm, and genuine passion for sharing Ugandan culture and wilderness left a lasting impression. Brian's ability to spot wildlife was uncanny, and his insightful commentary enriched every encounter. He navigated the itinerary with seamless efficiency, ensuring we maximized our time without feeling rushed.
The accommodations Tubale Safaris arranged were comfortable and child friendly. Our dietary requirements were well taken care by Tubale Safaris and at the accommodations as we eat only vegetarian food.
Overall, my Tubale Safaris tour exceeded all expectations. Their professionalism, meticulous planning, and dedication to showcasing the best of Uganda made it an exceptional trip. Annette's initial care and Brian's expert guidance throughout left me feeling incredibly well-looked-after and deeply connected to this beautiful country.
Thank you Tubale Safaris, Brian and Annete for a memorable experience we will cherish this for a long time and will soon plan another trip in future.
If you're looking for an authentic and unforgettable Ugandan adventure, I highly recommend Tubale Safaris!

Best value!
Tubale Safari was the perfect group for my first Safari Experience. Annette was helpful during the whole process, patiently answering all my questions. While the prices are very similar to other groups, they definitely has the most value, even on the choices of accomodations was much better than the other groups I checked that offered the same price point. And the Experience itself was amazing, thanks to Shaufik, and we were able to see the big 5 in 1 1/2 days! Challenges along the way are inevitable, but it was nothing because the atmosphere was always positive! Definitely recommeding this tour group!

Extremely friendly, helpful and well-organised.
The tour to Biwindi Forest was extremely well organised. Everything went exactly as had been suggested. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. It all meant we had a really great time, the highlight of which was of course managing to find some of the remarkable mountain gorillas. The whole experience is very highly recommended.

Great experience - highly recommend!
We did a three-day safari tour in Murchison Falls with Tubale and had the best experience. Our tour guide was Isaac and he did a terrific job - he picked us up at 7am at our hotel in Kampala and drove with us to Murchison Falls, with a stop at a Rhino sanctuary. The next day we went out on an early morning game drive, followed by a boat tour and another game drive in the evening and the next morning, before driving home. It was just the three of us, me and my husband and Isaac. The lodge we stayed at was very good, with air conditioning, although the internet was not working most of the time. Isaac went out of his way to give us a good experience and was very adamant to make sure we saw all the big 5 - which we did! Our favorite moment was when we saw a family of lions and cubs right ahead of us on the road. Overall, this was the highlight of our stay in Uganda - highly recommend!

Highly recommended trip and tour operator
Fantastic 18-day tour across Uganda (Jinja, Sipi falls, Karamoja, Kidepo VNP, Murchison Falls NP, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth NP, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Mgahinga, Lake Bunyonyi, Lake Mburo).
Uganda is not only gorilla trekking (although truly a magic experience) but also culture, breathtaking landscapes of lush vegetation and wide variety of wildlife.
The itinerary was perfectly customised to my personal (photographic) interests by the tour consultant Annette T., who promptly answered all my questions during the planning phase and assisted me throughout the trip (in particular, speaking with the Lost&found office of Entebbe airport and personally rescuing my lost luggage).
A mention to the driver Jamal, who was always kind and reliable despite the long -and sometimes difficult- road, and who easily managed to make ongoing modifications to some activities.
I strongly recommend this tour operator!

Excellent 10 day Uganda tour
Recently finished an amazing 10 day tour with Tubale and it was amazing, everything was arranged professionally from collection to drop off on the final day. We were able to see a wide variety of wildlife whilst the guide gave detailed explanations on each animal and their specific behaviours, on top of the game drives there were two boat trips, chimpanzee trekking and of course the incredible Biwindi Gorilla trek. The itinerary was designed in a way that offered a variety of activities but also allowed for some flexibility, my guide Jamal was always open and approachable about possible changes caused by weather/road conditions.
Accommodation throughout the trip was of a very high standard with many of the lodges offering stunning views of local areas/national parks.
My only regret is not doing a longer tour here but I will definitely return and book through Tubale.

Must have lifetime experience
I had a 10-days safari tour with Tubale. Tour included Ziwa rhinos, Murchison falls and NP, Nile boat ride, Chimp trek, Queen Elizabeth NP, boat ride on Kazinga channel, Gorilla trek, couple of local community experiences, on the way back passed through some zebras and equator. In short: the whole tour was just amazing, I will have these wonderful memories and experiences for life. The falls, even being far away from the capital are a must see, just feeling such power of waterfall is magical. National parks were full of beautiful flora, animals and birds, all you need is some patience and agility, remember it is as much your duty to stay alert and look around as your guide’s, animals may show up when you least expect them. Primate treks were literally mesmerizing and so emotionally rewarding to be so close to our closest relatives. Boat rides were super cool to see the wild life yet from another angle. Community experiences were interesting, to learn and see where and how local people live. My guide was Shafic Kabanda, he was just superb guide and made the tour such an amazing experience. Shafic is very knowledgeable, he will tell you so much about Uganda, flora, fauna, culture, traditions, food and even more. He was very patient, respectful and accommodating, had a really sharp eye finding animals and even smallest birds. BTW, please ask him to introduce you to local food, you won’t regret it! Booking rep Annette was very professional in her communication and made the whole planning and booking very smooth and easy. I highly recommend Tubale Safaris, Shafic and Annette and thank you guys for making my experience so wonderful!
