Great experiences
5/5

My family and I had a fantastic safari experience in Uganda with Yaneta Safaris . Our guide William was exceptional with an uncanny ability to spot all kinds of exotic wildlife not easily discernible to the untrained eye. He was a truly knowledgeable and patient guide who adjusted our schedule to suite our needs and maximize our experience in Queen Elizabeth National Park And we had a chance to trek the gorillas which was so amazing experience full of fun to my family I had traveled with in the beatiful forest if Bwind impenetrable forest the murchision falls was a great one to and yes we did see the big 5 on our game drive in the parks.The whole trip was a truly memorable experience from start to finish and Yaneta Safaris made it possible through their professional delivery of this product with no surprises. Thanks to the Yaneta Safaris team for making this such a wonderful trip and we highly recommend Yaneta Safaris to anyone planing to visit Uganda for a Safaris or vacation holidays.

Amazing Tour in Uganda.
5/5

We had an amazing time in Uganda, thanks in large part to Our guide’s knowledge of Uganda, his skill as a driver, and his calm and unfailingly positive approach to both life and touring. His advice and guidance were always spot on, and many of our most memorable moments were impromptu (market tours, stops for local food at roadside restaurants, etc.) . Uganda was truly a vacation of a lifetime, with some wonderful lodges, great game drives, exhilarating whitewater rafting, and gorilla and chimp trekking, and Our guide made the vacation stress free and fun.we can recommend more highly to anyone planning to tour Uganda!

Great Safari experience, very well organized
5/5

I had a really great time during my safari to the Queen Elizabeth National Park with Yaneta safaris. Prior to my arrival I was in contact by email with William at Yaneta safaris, who offered me a lot of options in terms of parks to visit, length of the visit, budget and accommodation.

Bracius was my guide, his a great guide, very kind and knowledgeable about Uganda's fauna (especially birds!), flora and History, and he takes safety very seriously especially when driving, which seems to be quite risky in some Ugandan roads. He was always looking after my needs and very keen to please me.

I went to the Queen Elizabeth National park where I spent some time on a game drive during which I got to see lots of animals (elephants, baboons, different types of antelopes, buffalos), That day the lions were far away from the park because it was mating season, but Bracius didn't rest until we found them and it was amazing to see them. I also enjoyed the boat trip over the Kazinga channel, where you can see literally hundreds of animals on the shore, and very close. Lots of hippos, elephants, buffalos, some crocodiles, kingfishers, Within the park, I stayed 2 nights at the Safari lodge. The views over the lake while having breakfast and dinner were amazing, the food was excellent and the staff very kind, On our way from the QENP, Bracius took me to the outside of the Lake Mburo NP where, without actually entering the park, we saw zebras and impalas, which you can't see in the QENP.
The chimpanzee and gorilla tracking in Kibale and Bwindi were truly unforgettable experiences and I loved tracking golden monkeys in Mgahinga. I'd definitely recommend hiring a porter for these treks. You don't necessarily need someone to carry your bag if you're fit and the hike isn't too long, but you'll provide someone with a day's work for only $15/20 and they can give you a helpful push or pull on the steeper bits, especially if it's been raining.

All in all, William and Bracius planned and delivered an amazing trip. It was a complete success and I thoroughly recommend using Yaneta Safaris. Huge thanks to them!

Great experience and memorable life time
5/5

Great experience with Yaneta Safaris The organisation is perfect, everything was clear and ok. They even take care of the safe transport from and to the airport. our guide and driver from Yaneta Safaris was always on time and gave a lot of information. He is a very open and friendly person and could provide us with a lot of interesting information about the culture of Uganda and the different animals during the Safari tour. We visited Murchinson Falls National Park,Bwindi impenetrable forest and we a great chance to have eyes with the gorillas .There one can really experience Africa as taken from the picture-book: stunning landscapes and a grand wilderness feel, where one instinctively senses that nature has not yet been tamed and wildlife reigns. The outstanding beauty of Murchinson Falls itself, where all the waters of the Nile cascade through a 8-meter wide gorge, is a spectacular sight to visit there. Also the lodges were very nice, good food and beautiful views. Would definitely recommend this agent to anyone planning their Ugandan safari. Yaneta Safaris really tried their best to make our trip a memorable one!

my adventurous and charming trip down to Uganda
4/5

Me and my husband planned our festive holidays down to Uganda last December, at the airport we were welcomed by the yaneta crew Bracius and William who were so glad to receive us. They expressed themselves in excellent English and tried to translate the native languages to us which made communication more fun.
They booked us into the best lodges and travelled, guided us with no hesitation or bias. According to the way they guided us you could tell that they loved what they were doing. Having the yaneta safaris staff with us made the trip a success and really enjoyable.

Another day in paradise, UGANDA
5/5

we were team of 5 members,we decided to choose Yaneta safaris as our gate to Uganda. it was flamboyant moment right from the commencement to the climax of the session. William our tour operator had vast knowledge and served us to the best of our needs which was not easy job,thanks to the the management all went well.
Upon our arrival we were already super excited because of the uniqueness of every thing our eyes caught.

We explored national game parks, (queen Elizabeth) and life was at its best,as the driver was punctual,knowledge and suggestive,we saw a couple of lions, elephants, different bird spices,zebra and giraffes, from there we went straight to lake Bunyonyi one of the deepest lakes in the world, beautiful flora and fauna plus fresh waters. we enjoyed local foods and drinks in Uganda it was amazing, one of a kind.

our last day, we made to incredible Bwindi impenetrable forest home of gorilla and chimpanzee trekking , this was one of the best moments in life as we saw animals close to human being in terms of behaviors and characters. once again thanks alot William and Bracius for the amazing reception, love and care,made us feel at home, your services were fantastic, thank Yaneta safaris.
We recommend Yaneta safaris for anyone interested in love for adventure.
