Amazing Honeymoon with Freka African Holidays
5/5

Freka Afican Holidays is one of the best tour operators in Uganda, we booked a four days tour for our honeymoon, We visited Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park and Kibale Forest National Park with a break in the middle Lake Bunyonyi, we really enjoyed coming up close with gentle giants, the mountain gorillas, we like our accommodations from Rushaga, Lake Bunyonyi and Kibale, they were clean and had nice views too, like in Rushaga we could view the volcanos, our guide Ronald was informative and very friendly, always at service whenever we need any assistance, We highly recommend Freka African Holidays and looking forward to using them again.

Best African Safari Operators in Uganda
5/5

I and my friends have peculiar tastes and were not sure find the best fit for a tour guide on our trip to Uganda. However, Freka African Holidays get full marks for their tailor-made African tours that had us enjoy a lot during this trip. Eddy, our tour guide, was the best, knew what will keep the group occupied and having the time of our lives. I’d highly recommend them to anyone who wants a phenomenal safari experience.

Terrific Guide on a Once in a Lifetime Experience
5/5

Freka provided us with a tailored itinerary that met all of our necessary requirements. We loved our guide, Eddie, who was knowledgeable and had years of experience that he shared with us on every leg of our trip. While the gorilla and chimp trekking were definite highlights of the trip, one of the most special and unanticipated aspects of our trip were the friendships we struck with Eddie, the staff at each lodge, and the villagers along the way. We will definitely be returning and Freka will be our operator of choice!

EDDIE IS THE BEST!!! Literally such an integral part in making this the best trip ever.
5/5

Honestly, do this trip. Freka made it so easy to book and select the activities and lodging experience we were looking for, we though it was almost too good to be true. But once we touched down in Uganda, we got Eddie as our guide and he handled everything and made this trip absolutely amazing! We went to see gorillas as our main reason for flying to Uganda, but some of the other activities that were included with Freka tours that weren't top of our priority list became our favorites, like visiting the villages in some of the areas we stayed. I mean from magical sightings of animals, amazing lodges and hosts and guides, and then the moving experience of getting to know people in different villages and learn their way of life just made this trip unforgettable. I am recommending everyone use Freka and visit Uganda -- it was the most beautiful place on earth!

Akagera - Exceeded my expectations.
5/5

Before visiting here, I had read that, this was a small park and the wildlife population was recovering and so I didn't expect so much but I would say It's not something like this,,,saw many animals as we did. We did one game drive and a boat safari and it wasn't disappointed any. Our short time there limited us to visit a short part of the park so we weren't able to fully explore the area but were delighted that on a short drive we saw an elephant, giraffes, zebras, impalas, hippos, a crocodile, antelope, baboons, monkeys, several birds and water buffalo and even a few others,,,.. I am forgetting. The boat safari was also a pleasant and relaxing surprise and afforded us to come up close views of hippos, crocs, and water buffalo along with some great bird viewing. This was my first safari so I don't have much else to compare it to but everything this company made for this tour was perfert and I came away satisfied wishing we had more time to visit up to the northern section of the park in hopes of seeing the lions and rhinos.

Had amazing Mountain Gorilla trip with Freka African Holidays
5/5

Freka African Holidays through Josephine, Booked my Trip December last Year and everything from Lodging to transportation, my safari Dreams were achieved and his Personality made me enjoy every spot of my Safari.
The time which we had with watching the Gorillas is the best thing that has ever happened to my life. Now, Uganda has increased Gorilla Permit Fees and thus I recommend you to book your gorillas tour with Josephine of Freka African Holidays, they always had a good offered price for tour. Search for it and you shall never regret your decision. As per my experience, Bwindi is the best place for hiking and encounter with gorillas.

Akagera with Freka African Holidays and Ronald !!
5/5

We recently had a trip to Akagera NP in January 2020, I was fortunate to be in with the company of very experienced guide. I was with a group of 8 perple traveling in comfortable vehicles with oened tops. My guide is a cheerful and informative gentleman named Ronald. Also had a driver of our vehicle and he is a guy with all wonderful manner. During the 2 hour journey from Kigali to our destination, Ronal kept us informed on how the day would going to be, patiently answering all of our questions. During the six hour drive through the park, he proved to be an enthusiastic and excellent wildlife spotter, as we encountered baboons, impalas, velvet monkeys, waterbuck, several types of birds, and best of all—a stand of elephants. Ronald is having a rich source of information on the animals,diversity and history of the park. There wasn’t a single question he couldn’t answer and thus I recommend him for any safari tour. I believe Akagera is a must when you visit Rwanda.

A very pleasant and memorable trip... Made us feel at home and welcome.
5/5

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 a long time and a lot has changed. Everyone made us welcome .The guide /driver "Tomson" is an excellent ambassador for the company. Josephine and his team in the office were very professional. I can not fault anything organised by them.
A highly recommended company to book your tour with.
Well done and a big thanksto you all. Hoping to come back soon.
