Great safari experience
5/5

I took two safari tours with Yala (Murchison and Queen Elizabeth). One in May with friends and one in July with my partner. Both times Godwin, our guide, was very friendly and helpful. He organised everything from our meals (some of my friends had allergy issues or were vegetarians) to visits to the local communities. He also would adjust the plans as we asked him, without any further charges. Moreover, he would do whatever it took for us to see the best animals, from talking to other guides he knew to trying to find traces of hunting so we would be able to see our favorite animals. In the end, we managed to see elephants, hippos, giraffes, pumba, hyenas and even zebras from a distance. I had a great time and I hope I will be able to go back to Uganda soon.

Extra-ordinary experience with Yala Safaris Uganda
5/5

I went home for a short holiday for Christmas and this time I aimed at being a tourist. Therefore I had red the services of Yala Safaris Uganda together with 3 of my friends.

We were picked up and taken to a mid-range hotel. We stayed there for the night and next day we relaxed and spent sometime with our families privately. On the 3rd day early in the morning we were picked up from the hotel and driven to Masindi where we were to do our Safari. They provided us with water, fruits and a stop mid way to buy some street food which is a boom. The Safari was well organized and we enjoyed activities such as fame drive, boat cruise and Chimp tracking.

I must recommend the services of Yala Safaris Uganda as their driver was alway very nice to us often asking if we were feeling well and whether everything was fine or even for our ideas to make the trip better.


I surely recommend Yala Safaris Uganda to anyone out there. Can't wait for my next trip in a couple of months.

Great Trip and Great Experience
5/5

Yala Safaris is no doubt one of the best safari companies in Uganda. I was met at the airport by the owner of the company, Mr. Godwin, who made all the pre-planning a stress-free experience. He immediate made me feel at ease and looking forward to the trip ahead. I traveled with my guide, Eddy for a week in January and had an outstanding experience. I have lived and have traveled in Africa on several occasions, and in my experience, no other company can even come close to matching the level of service that Yala Safaris provides. Eddy’s extensive knowledge of the flora, fauna, natural history, Ugandan culture, and geography of the region is unrivaled. The company operates with exceptional professionalism and organization. They will tailor a trip to the client's needs and desires, and they are very flexible. I highly recommend Yala Safaris for a Ugandan Safari experience and trip of a lifetime!

Fantastic and Comfortable Safari Experience
5/5

Yala Safaris was a great first safari experience. They picked us up promptly on time so we made it to Murchison Falls early enough to relax before heading out for the night game drive. The accommodations and meals were some of the best we've had in the entire time we stayed in Uganda! Very professional experience and Stanley and Michael were great to have as tour guides around Murchison. They knew a lot about the animals we saw and their positivity and enthusiasm made the entire experience much more fun! Thanks for being so accommodating. I had a thoroughly lovely experience!
