Excellent Customized Uganda Tour
I had an incredible vacation with home to Africa tours. It was a last minute trip, so the three weeks leading up to my arrival, I had about 100 emails back and forth with Elias. he was able to accommodate every single one of my detailed requests. He always answered my emails/messages in a timely fashion, no matter the time of day. I did the chimpanzee and gorilla habituation and spread out my time in Uganda in 7 days. Elias recommended resorts to stay at in between the habituation experiences and they were beautiful. Paul was our driver and he was excellent - I can't say enough positive things about him. He was more than our driver/guide, he was our friend! He taught us so much and was such a gentleman.

Our group experience with Home To Africa Tours
20 days across the highlights of Uganda was a fantastic experience and more so with such a stunning, lovely company Home To Africa Tours. We booked this trip as a group from china. Everything was perfectly arranged . With comfortable vehicles, great guides, good lodges. Our guides were knowledgable, and excellent drivers and very friendly. I would recommend them to my Chines friends. Thank You Home to Africa tours. We will return soon. Perfect !

A wonderful Ugandan and Wildlife experience
I've rated this organisation with 5 stars! That is not only because of the wonderful safaris we have done, but also the personal touch which they have. As there where problems with our arrival flights, we couldnt be there on the assigned day. The organisation was very flexible and it turned out that they adjusted a bit of our safari so that we could go relaxed on our holiday in Uganda. Besides the flexibilty this organisation has, the contact was also very fast and kind. Everytime I had a question they replied within the hour. Also when arrival they welcomed us with two people, one of them from the office and one guide. This welcome made us feel very welcomed and made the tour from the first second very good and personalised. The name of the guide we had was Paul, he was very kind and was very experienced. Not only he could answer a lot about the animals, but also a lot about the country itself. So 5 stars for the guide Paul aswell. As far as I can tell, most tour operators want to get as many tourists in a van, this results in a lack of a personal tour. With this tour I felt free to ask whatever I want and whenever I want. Besides the persons which made our tour very comfertable, the safaris itself were also very good organised. We had fun every day, the safaris were diverse and so we could enjoy everday with something new. We went daily on safaris, but in the resting time we were also able to see something from an Ugandan village, which made the Ugandan experience complete.
In a nutshell: a good and fast responding organisation. Good experienced tour guides. A great personal touch.

Excellent prompt support from initial enquiry to the execution of the tour and safari
Communications - From an initial enquiry,I had a whatapp call from Edward explaining his company and going through some of the tours they can tailor make to our requirements. The plan was changed several times by us to obtain the maximum usage of our time while we were visiting Uganda. Once agreed, we were informed about the progress of the booking. The progress of the booking was managed by Elias. Our driver/guide "dugu" Karim was excellent in planning our requirements. The challenges we gave him were taken care of without any issues and nothing was a problem for him. He took a great care for the whole party throughout the 2 weeks we spent with him. Karim was very knowledgeable and is great guide and fun to be with. We would highly recommend Home to Africa Tours to our friends and family and a big thank you to the whole team who supported us while we were on our travels. Finally it was topped up with an excellent time we had at a charity at Buwenge that is also supported by Home to Africa Tours.

A very pleasant and memorable trip with Home to Africa- Made us feel at home and welcome
An excellent company to book your tour with. From the minute we were picked up from the airport till the end of our tour. The whole company could not do enough for our memorable trip. We came to Uganda after 45 years and a lot has changed. Everyone made us welcome .The guide /driver "Kariim" is an excellent ambassador for the company. Elias and his team in the office with Edward and a gorgeous lady Yvonne and all team were very professional. I can not fault anything organised by them.
A highly recommended company to book your tour with.
Well done to you all ndugus. Hoping to come back soon.

Grand safari adventure
Overall we were very happy with our family vacation with Home to Africa tours and travel. It was planned according to our wishes and we saw, experienced and tasted more than we had ever hoped for (thank you for the unexpected, fantastic birthday and graduation cakes!). The parks, treckings, animals, people, markets, scenery, food and experiences were all wonderful, not to mention the rafting. The lodgings were at times a bit simpler than we'd hoped for but worked out for us anyway.
Our guide was very knowledgeable regardless whether it came to animals, history, agriculture, nature, politics, really anything. Unfortunately he was short tempered with little patience and at times put a damper on the atmosphere.
All in all we are very happy with our trip to Uganda and have managed to raise a lot of interest from friends and colleagues.

We had a great experience with home to Africa.
We were very impressed with the hotels and especially our driver, Abdul. He was calm and drove beautifully. He explained everything and went out of his way to take us on a safari drive when it was not even our time. He tried his best to give us the best experience possible and we are so grateful to him. Absolutely amazing!!!

The trip of a lifetime!
We just returned from the 10 Day Epic Gorilla & Wildlife Safari and it was just wonderful. Uganda had all the activities we wished for and Home To Africa Tours & Travel had an affordable itinerary that did not disappoint. Elias and Paul met us at the airport and made sure we were looked after and comfortable for the entire trip. Paul is an excellent and knowledgeable guide and very good at spotting animals. We saw the big five animals and so many more and enjoyed multiple game drives and boat rides. Each of the five national parks we visited had their own atmosphere and attributes and we loved them all. This itinerary required many hours of road travel but there was so much to see while riding through the countryside. It was endlessly interesting to see the trading centers, homes, people, and especially the friendly children of Uganda. We particularly enjoyed the game drives and were amazed at all the animal sightings. Our lodgings were comfortable with good food and we did not have to worry about a thing as Paul is an experienced guide and led us along on a trip we will never forget. Home To Africa Tours arranged the next leg of our trip to Victoria Falls which was a sight to see and those plans all fell into place without a hitch. My mind is still so full from all the things I learned on this trip and I have over 300 photos to enjoy. If you want to go on an African Safari complete with a chimpanzee and gorilla trek, go to Uganda. If you want a tour that caters to your interests and comforts and is affordable, choose Home To Africa Tours and Travel. We had an excellent experience!

Up close and personal escribes the incredible experience we had on River Nile and on saffari .
Our group of university students were thrilled to learn that we would not only visit Uganda but also spend 3 days viewing the Murchison Falls national park and see all the wonderful animals, birds and natural environment of that location. Our experience with the staff and drivers from Home to Africa Tours and Travel was outstanding. They accommodated our travel needs and did so with great courtesy. Having traveled in Uganda multiple times, I appreciated their careful safe driving and comfortable vehicles. We will surely return to them to book future trips!
