The best travel experience I had!
5/5

I went on the 4 days trip, Queen Elizabeth Park and gorillas tracking, I saw beautiful landscapes and animals, a lot of unforgetable things.
Accomodations and food were very good, and our guide, Sunday, was just great, I thank him again for everything!

Unforgettable, great experience
5/5

We went on a week tour to Queen Elizabeth and Lake Mburo. It was an unforgettable journey and we enjoyed every minute!

The tours arranged were always well organized, interesting and a good mix. Emma our guide was just perfect. He knows and explained us a lot about culture, animals, plants etc. We can definitely recommend the trip and Buffalo to others.

Trip of a lifetime
5/5

We went on a bespoke 2 week safari around most of the main points of Uganda. It was arranged extremely well with fantastic communication throughout all of the planning stages. The price was extremely competitive and offered better accommodation lodges than other companies who were charging more. We always felt safe and all of our needs were attended to. Our driver Aire (elephant) was amazing and knew exactly where to go to find the best animals, it’s not just about luck. He had great knowledge of the different parks and knew where animals would usually be. Our chef, David, for the camping element was amazing and made better food on a camping stove then o could make in a full kitchen. It was great learning from them about Uganda. It was an amazing experience and I couldn’t have asked for a better safari company.

An unforgettable experience
5/5

My friend and I did a 1 week safari with Buffalo Safari Camps and we had an amazing time. It was easy to book and all of our emails were answered quickly. They personalized our itinerary for what we were most interested in, including adding a hike to the Ik tribe. We were picked up on time and had no problems with transportation throughout our week. Rogers was our driver/guide and was amazing. He was very knowledgable about the animals and about Uganda in general. He was great at finding animals during our game drives and found the animals we were most interested in. Rogers was well prepared for all of our activities, even getting things the night before so we didn't have to wait in line. I would recommend Buffalo Safari Camps to anyone! We truly had a trip of a lifetime!!

The guide made us feel extremely comfortable with the entire experience.
5/5

Everything was great. The one thing I would say is to have an emergency phone number before the trip starts.

An epic and circular journey through Uganda
4/5

My 18 year old son and I went on a 17-day tailor-made trip with Buffalo Safari Camps, visiting Lake Bunyoni, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Lake Mutanda, Queen Elizabeth Park, Murchison Falls NP, Kidepo Valley and Sipi Falls. We also visited the Ik and Karamoja tribes.

Rogers our guide is well-liked wherever he goes and has a pleasing personality, and most importantly, a good ethical stance in regards to the wildlife. He lingers long enough for you to have great looks and photos, but not so long that the animals are hindered by our presence. He has a lot of knowledge of both the wildlife and finding his way around the crazy, dusty, bumpy and largely unmarked roads. Halfway through our tour we started bush camping, and our cook - David - joined us. Great with flavors, he was also an amiable presence. I think they are both talented, intelligent and right-minded men.

I will be dreaming of giraffes, hippos, elephants and lions for many months to come. And all of the gorgeous people of Uganda.

Excellent choice of itinerary and delivery.....thanks Tim and the team
5/5

We'd been thinking about a safari for a while but decided to wait until our daughter was old enough to appreciate it - very glad we did. We spoke to Tim and told him what we'd like to experience and that was all we had to do!!! Tim advised us what, in his opinion, would be the most enjoyable for us and suggested how long we should spend in each destination. It worked out perfectly and each day felt like a new adventure with enough time to chill out but not so much that we felt like we should be doing something. I'd thoroughly recommend Buffalo Safaris to anyone that's thinking of seeing Uganda. Our guide Emmanual was very knowledgable friendly and keen to tell us about his country. Try the pineapples - they are amaaaaazing!!!!!

Brilliant tailor made safari
5/5

Having previously worked in the safari industry some years ago, myself and my partner decided to take the in-laws on their first ever safari.
Booking with Buffalo Safari Camps allowed us to tailor make our tour for exactly wanted we wanted, and it didn’t disappoint... it was without a doubt one of the best safaris we’ve ever been on!
The overall tour itinerary, vehicle (huge fan of Land Rovers) and service were top notch, not to mention great value. Our driver Errie was awesome - very knowledgeable and always smiling.
I’ve recommended all of my friends.

Excellent Customized Group Tour with Chimp Trekking and Queen Elizabeth
5/5

I had family in town, and Buffalo organized and incredible week in southern Uganda for us. Unfortunately during the trip, our vehicle broke down, but Tim and his staff were so efficient in finding replacements and getting them to us on time that we barely noticed the issue (aside from a visibly different vehicle). I was super impressed with their problem solving efficiencies. In addition, the tour was amazing! We went gorilla trekking, toured Queen Elizabeth, and went chimp trekking. The lodges we stayed at were beautiful and well appointed, and the food was great throughout.

Fantastic self-drive trip in Uganda
5/5

Buffalo Safaris exceeded expectations on all fronts. From assistance with acquiring gorilla tracking permits to helping us plan our trip through Uganda Tim and his team were incredibly helpful. The car was great, as was the equipment, and Tim stayed in contact with us during our trip regarding any information we needed, like road conditions etc. We really did have a great time and I would recommend the self-drive option to anyone who enjoys 4x4'ing, camping and the outdoors. Uganda is a special place!
