A wonderful experience in a fabulous country .
5/5

From being picked up at the airport to being dropped back off again, Michael my guide for the week was a pleasure to be with, his knowledge of the country and the area's we were visiting were second to none (even telling me the best spot to sit for taking pictures on a boat ride) and with eyes like an eagle saw some wonderful photo opportunities I would never have seen!! a camera should be ready at all times!! As a solo traveler it was very important that I felt safe and this was the case at all times, the one and only time there was a problem it was with accommodation and within the hour we were on route to another lodge, communication between Michael, myself and management was exceptional and nothing was too much trouble. Uganda is a magical country and there is still so much more to see, I would definitely love to return and will certainly use Speke and have no hesitation in recommending to others, a huge thank you to Michael and well done to Tony for having such a fantastic team.

Excellent trip for 2 adults and 3 children
5/5

The safari was perfect, the driver was friendly and informative. Paraa Lodge was fantastic in Murchison Falls. Our driver tailored the game drives based on our children. Would definitely recommend this company.

3 Spectacular Weeks of Adventure
5/5

Wow! I just wrapped up nearly 3 weeks of unbelievable adventures in Uganda all meticulously and expertly planned by Speke Uganda Holidays. My safari covered nearly every corner of Uganda and everything in between. What I truly appreciated about the team at Speke was that they were keenly interested in what I wanted to see and what adventures would be of interest to me. The planners at Speke frequently consulted with me as they were designing my safari to make sure they were in-line with my expectations. Not only did they meet my expectations, but they exceeded them. My safari was a clearly not a "canned, off the shelf" safari and that it was designed to my likes and ambitions. My driver/guide, Michael, was very courteous, informative, knowledgeable, punctual and easy to converse with. What a gentleman he is. All of the accommodations throughout my stay were perfect and each one was unique in its own way. The memories created on this safari will never fade from my mind and I genuinely look forward to the day I return. Uganda has so much to offer and yet few people know about it.

Perfect trip: wonderful guide, great encounters with Ugandan wildlife
5/5

Our trip with Speke Uganda was great: We had a very nice guide, Edward, who told us a lot about the country and the people of Uganda. He was a very good driver driver, too. We tracked chimpanzees and gorillas - though physically challenging (at least at Bwindi) a highly recommendable thing to do!

Exellent and best valuable Tour
5/5

It was the best tour in my life. Everything was perfect organized.Much better
as I expected. Our personal guide was very nice and his knwledge about all the animals,
birds and nature was perfect. Also all informations and discussions about the daily
life at Uganda has been very interesting for us. Save driving and all assistance he gave,
i found great.
Coming to Uganda again, I would only choose Speke again.

They maximized the experience for the limited time we had.
5/5

They carefully took our information and formulated a tour which suited our limitations. Robert, our driver and guide, was very personable and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to show us many animals and still meet our time line. The lodging and food arrangements were excellent.

Much more than I expected of a short Safari
5/5

We did not have a lot of time (only 2 half days) for Safari but the tour with Speke gave us more than we ever hoped for. They arranged it to meet our needs and desires. The scenery was spectacular down the beautiful unspoiled Nile to Murchison Falls. We saw many different species of animals up close, including Elephants, Giraffes, Hippos, Lions, Hyenas, Walter Buffalo, Baboons, monkeys, different species of Antelope and Birds everywhere. The tour guide did everything possible for us to see the animals. This Safari was inexpensive and I felt we were well cared with accommodation, meals and transportation and a very knowledgeable guide.

We were treated like angels. Service was timely and spectacular.
5/5

Our safari was to the Murchison falls national park. Being the first time I was taking a safari, I was skeptical on what it all entailed and naturally asked many questions to which the tour operators' staff responded politely. The operators team was quite helpful in helping us prepare for the safari and were kind to us all through the trip. We benefited from the patience and jolliness our tour guide and up to now we still laugh at some of his jokes. I would surely recommend Speke Uganda holidays to anyone planning a safari in the great lakes region.
