Stephen Baboineke, knowledgeable, very kind, and instantly we were like family. He kept us safe!
5/5

Jolie communicated very well with me. The Gorilla Treks were amazing!
Although they didn’t take as much time as I had allocated and therefore we had lots of down time.
And you won’t need binoculars to see the gorillas- so save the weight for souvenirs!

our trip to Uganda was amazing thanks to Achieve Safaris!
5/5

A big thank you to Jolie and John from Achieve Safaris. Booking with Jolie was easy and pleasant and whatever was wanted or needed for the trip was easily arranged.

John hosted us on our 6-day tour and it was absolutely incredible and we could not have asked for better. He was very friendly, welcoming, informative and insightful. Our favourite thing about John was his passion! We’re convinced that there is no one more passionate than John when it comes to providing his guests with nothing but wonderful memories from Uganda and we want to thank John for making our trip the best it could be, it was amazing!

Amazing opportunity to see the wildlife in East Africa!
5/5

This trip was well planned from the beginning. Jolie was extremely prompt and clear with all of her emails. Every time I asked a question she would get back to me within a day. The final itinerary included everything we wanted to do and see. Jolie worked with us to add a few extra activities and was very accommodating.

As far as the trip goes, we were in the car for very long periods of time, but it was definitely worth it in order to see so many different amazing things!

Dominick was our driver/guide in Kenya. He was very patient and accommodating as our group seemed to be late every single time we were supposed to leave. He always made the trip all about us and never seemed to mind. He was very knowledgeable about the roads and where to see the animals while on safari. Masai Mara was the most incredible place to see basically everything except for the rhino. Luckily, we also got to visit Lake Nakuru and saw the rhinos there.

After Kenya we met our guide Tom who stayed with us during our time in Uganda and Rwanda. I can’t say enough nice things about him. He is so kind, caring, and made us feel safe at all times. He was extremely encouraging and reassuring of our group and helped us with any information we needed or any reservations we might have had. There were less animals on safari in Uganda, but we were lucky enough to see everything in Kenya. Our main focus here were the tracking experiences (golden monkeys, mountain gorillas, and chimpanzees), and they did not disappoint. Seeing the silverback gorillas was the highlight of our entire trip and made the difficult hike worth it.

Overall, all members of our group highly recommend traveling with Achieve Global Safaris as they are extremely reliable. We all felt safe throughout the entire trip. If you have the time and can handle the car rides, make sure you go to all 3 countries as they all offer unique experiences.

5/5

I would like to say a big thank you to Jolie who arranged out trip to Bwindi and Queen Elizabeth National Park over 5 days. Nothing was too much trouble. Jolie was really helpful and responded immediately to any emails I sent. There was no problems with anything except for Parkview in Queen Elizabeth National Park who had over booked guest, however this was not the fault of Achieve Global Safaris. The hotel issue was resolved. The driver and guide Jon was excellent, going out of his way to help with anything. He is a completely trustworthy man. His driving skills were good and local knowledge was excellent. The vehicle we used was large and comfortable.
Thank you to Jolie and Jon for giving myself and my family and incredible unforgettable experience of Uganda.

Gorilla Safari
5/5

Jolie arranged our booking. She was so pleasant and helpful. The safari was absolutely wonderful. I was a little nervous of the hike but it was amazing. Bwindi forest is really beautiful. I recommend a porter as it was very slippery. The gorillas were so peaceful. Thanks Jolie!

Gorilla Trek Tour Uganda
5/5

I had a great experience with Achieve Global Safaris. My guide Hassan was professional, organized and helpful. As a solo female traveller, it's always important to find a reliable and trustworthy organization and Achieve Global Safari's was great to me. Jolie always answered all my emails and questions quickly and professionally. I had an amazing time in Bwindi with the gorillas and if I'm back in Uganda I will definitely consider booking another tour with Achieve Global Safaris.

Perfect three day trip to Queen Elizabeth National Park.
5/5

I was concerned with making this commitment from around the world sight unseen and I could not be more delighted. Jolie helped work out the details and money exchange, Tom was the guide and driver for the whole trip, knowledgeable and entertaining. I saw both life in rural Africa and animals in the park. Tom went above and beyond to make this a great trip!

Fantastic Trip - Very Professional
5/5

Myself and a friend booked a safari to coincide with a trip to Uganda. I was very impressed with the planning team. As our personal plans (outside the safari) were constantly changing, we needed to keep changing our safari. For this Achieve (Jolie) were excellent. It was possible to change our plans by email and the communication was excellent.

On the safari our guide (Patrick) was very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We really enjoyed our time with him and saw and learned a huge amount. The accommodation in Pakuba was clean with good food and right in the middle of the bush. In fact, the accommodation was better than some supposed 5* places we stayed in at Entebbe

Overall, I would definitely recommend Achieve Global Safaris

Perfect Safari in Uganda
5/5

My husband and I had a wonderful time with 9 days visiting various safari and Gorilla track in Uganda.
Jolie, the tour Consultant of Achieve Global Safaris who arranged a perfect itinerary to us. She was extremely prompt and helpful with pre trip planning.
Elisa, our tour guide and driver was very friendly and professional. Although we spend long time in the car on a lot of bumpy roads but Elisa made it as comfortable as possible!
I highly recommend Achieve Global Safaris to arrange your customised trip in Uganda.
You'll be hearing from me for my next visiting!
Thanks again, Jolie and Elisa for giving us an safely & unforgettable round trip.
