Amazing Gorilla Hike!
5/5

I had a terrific experience. My guide, Alex Gabiito, was an extremely well-informed birder and terrific driver.

A perfect trip
5/5

Simba was complete perfection from the moment I booked our vacation until the moment we departed. I knew I wanted to select Simba from the many options of tour companies because of Linda. From the moment I began communicating with her, she made me feel completely at ease. She responded to me quickly, answered all of my questions, and gave me honest advice. Everything that I asked of her she did. She stayed in constant communication with me, and her performance made me totally trust this company. She actually accompanied our driver/guide to greet us at the airport. Best of all, she greeted me with a hug, rather than a handshake as if we were old friends...and I felt like we were! She introduced us to our driver and guide whose name was Xavier. I would recommend him to anyone of any age from any country. He was amazing! He was kind, funny, knowledgeable, and he can spot an animal from a mile away...which is absolutely what you want while on safari. He wanted my husband and I to be happy at every second of our trip...and we were! What I also loved about him was his passion. He enjoyed seeing the animals and other sights as much as we did! He was right along side me taking photos of the amazing things that we encountered. I cannot say enough good things about Linda and Xavier. As for the trip itself, it was life changing! It not only met but fully exceeded our expectations. Everything went so smoothly. This is a company that you do not have to worry about. They will take care of everything for you. So book with Simba, and then sit back, relax, and look forward to an amazing experience!

Amazing trip in a magnificent country
5/5

From the first e-mail till our arriving in Entebbe, the contact with Simba was great.
They responded very quickly on all our questions we had by e-mail.
When we arrived in Entebbe airport everything went smoothly and an hour later we were already in the Boma hotel.
Our driver and guide for our trip was Alex, really a very good driver and an excellent guide.
He's speciality are birds, but he also gave us lots of info about all the other animals we saw. We really want to thank Alex for the wonderful experience we had in Uganda.
During our trip we were lucky to see the most of the wildlife in Uganda and Alex did everything to make this possible.
So we had a wonderful time in Uganda and treasure all to beautiful memories.
All the lodges that were planned in our trip were great and we also enjoyed very much the food.
Only the lodges that were planned in our trip The Primates Lodge in Kibale and the Semulike Safari Lodge, that were changed without our knowledge in the Lodge Chimps Nest was a disaster, the water in our room was polluted (dark brown and muddy) and when we informed Simba about this problem, they did not do anything to improve our situation. Staying 3 nights in a lodge that is not suitable to receive guests and nobody was taking any action(except our driver, who called many times the head office), give you a very bad feeling.
Even now we don't understand why they changed the lodges, not only one but two.
Also on the program they put that non-alcoholic drinks are included in souper and dinner, but this is not true.
You have to pay for all your drinks at lunch and dinner.
But overall we had a great time, we really enjoyed Uganda and we recommend Simba to all our friends who want to visit Uganda.

Unforgettable Hospitality
5/5

When me and my friends decided to take a day away from home, we weren't sure of where, and how...After looking for a tour operator, we found Simba Africa Expeditions that a friend recommended, she had used their services for a trip to the Murchison Falls last year. So we contacted them by email and the whole process was very easy and fast. They designed our itinerary according to our needs, and we were good to go to Jinja. We were very excited with the rafting, bungee jumping and sightseeing for it was a whole new experience. The meal at the hotel was exceptional. Our itinerary was very well put together, everything was on time and we truly felt we made the best of our time! The weather was sunny making it pleasant and favorable. We appreciate Simba Africa Expeditions for arranging such an amazing trip for us! We look forward to arrange more of these with Simba Africa Expeditions!
