Our helpful and safe escort during our holiday!
4/5

We were very warm welcomed at the airport of Entebbe from our friendly tour guide Richard. During our journey through Uganda we felt that we are in good hands. Everything was very well organised and and we enjoyed every day in this beautiful country. We made gorilla trekking which was an highlight for us and an experience which we will definetly never forget! The boat cruise on the Kazinga channel is also a must to do. Our accommodations were really great and we enjoyed every day a great dinner with typical Ugandian dishes. We loved the fresh fish Tilapia from the lake Victoria and of course we could not get enough of Avocados and sweet potatoes, which is really hard to get in Europe !
All in all we were really satisfied and we can really recommend Adventure Vacation Safaris!

The two excellent guides made our trip an extraordinary experience-including the Gorilla-tracking
5/5

Our Uganda/Ruanda trip was perfectly organized, from the first to the last day. The accommodations were very good. The right car was provided for the journey from Entebbe to Kigali. We had an extraordinary vacation because of the two guides Joseph (German-speaking) and Ismael (English-speaking)
In addition to the interesting itinerary with the following highlights

• Rhinotracking
• Chimpanzees tracking
• Game drive with tree climbing lions
• 2 x Gorilla tracking

we have learned a lot about the country and the people of Uganda and Ruanda. Our special wishes, like the visit of a church on Sunday, were fulfilled. We would take another trip through the countries with these two guides, at once.

Uganda is a very interesting country under development.

Exciting, varied and memorable 8-day family safari in Uganda
5/5

Adventure Vacation Safaris proved to be very quick and efficient in responding to questions and flexible about making changes to fixed itineraries. The safari was well organised, the vehicle was in good condition, the driver/guide friendly, competent and knowledgeable, accommodation lived up to expectations. A great experience which can be recommended to others.

We did a 3 day trip to Murchinson falls. It was outstanding and our guide Dennis as brilliant
5/5

The whole trip went well. Dennis was knowledgable about the animals we saw and about Uganda its people, and history. We stayed at Fort Murchinson lodge. It was very good. We saw 4 of the big 5 and lots more including two porcupine which are very rare. Dennis went out of his way to ensure we enjoyed himself. To get the most out of your safari be prepared to spend long days - dawn to dusk on the reserve. You will see more. I can not praise this company to highly

Good itinerary, good organization, a very friendly and professional guide. Just perfect !
5/5

We spent 15 fantastic days in Uganda, from Ziwa, through Murchison Falls, Kibale, Queen Elisabeth and Bwindi. Everything has been great. We were expecting two memorable encounters with gorillas, and we got it. But the two days with the chimps (CHEX) were also a highlight of the trip.
Last but not least, we had the chance to see the shoe-bill stork in Mabamba swamp.
Thanks a lot !

Farouk best guide ever-perfect Safari!
5/5

From the first day to the last Farouk gave perfect service and made this an unfogettable trip to one of the best kept secrets in tourism: Uganda. Farouk explained everything, we always had interesting discussions during long drives going on, he was a friend from the beginning. We saw lions and hyaenas in Murchison Falls NP, chimpanzees in Kibale, a pregnant lioness climbing up a tree in Queen Elizabeth NP. A once in a lifetime experience was tracking the mountain gorillas. All lodges offered very good and personal service. We not only got an insight into the wildlife but somewhat into everyday life and culture of Uganda as well. We had a typical local meal at Tinka´ s home stay and Farouk showed and offered all sorts of local "fast food". Our favorite was banana chips! Many thanks to Farouk and all the team for a fantastic time!

This Trip (in total 17 days) was the best of all our Safaris in different countries of Africa. Rwanda an Uganda are beautiful and lovely countries. We learned so much about the flora, fauna and people... Our guide Farouk was priceless.
