Reviews
Excellent organisation of gorilla permits at late notice
Did a great job of organising gorilla permits for us at short notice.
They were fast and efficient, and dropped permits to our car hire company.
Very happy with the service received.
Reccomendations for improvements:
1. The different company names used are confusing
2. Found it difficult to figure out which payment option to choose from the options available on the online payment system. Some more instructions on this website for the different payment options would be good and it should definitely advise about any payment surcharges which can be significant as a percentage of the total (in our case $61 for two permits).

First time in Africa, first time in Uganda and it was an amazing experience!
Everything went better than expected. Achieve provided one of the best guides, Milton (Pierre) Owinji, good to perfect accommodation, a sturdy vehicle. In ten days, I have observed a lot of animals and landscapes, I have seen the way people live and I have learned a lot about Uganda. Tasted matoke and other local flavors, Everything is safe and they have a perfect system of national parks. Roads are getting better, I have seen many construction sites. Gorilla and chimpanzee tracking were amazing, as well as the road safaris. Milton spoke all the local languages, knew all the species by heart and was an excellent driver. Mark ensured everything was booked as requested, although I waited to the last minute to confirm.
highly professional and well organised
Good professional driver / guide. Well organised and timely service.
7 day Uganda Classic Tour
It is my pleasure to recommend this company and wonderful group of people.
I recently came back from a trip to Uganda which turned out to be one of my best vacations.
My trip was arranged by Mark of Achieve Global Safari. Mark and Ajok the guide/driver came to meet me at the airport and we were later joined by Polly at the hotel. The whole team is very friendly and accommodating to my needs. My guide was very knowledgeable and named almost all the birds he pointed out for me.
Their prices are very reasonable and I took the luxury option for a few more dollars. I think it is worth it.
It is too bad I cannot send the fee by PayPal or credit card since the area has a lot of frauds. I did not have any reference before but I took the risk and sent half of the fee in advance by bank transfer. I did not have any problem and got what I asked for.
The accommodations were great and probably the best I could have in this country.
Please make sure that you are pretty fit to go on a Gorilla tracking.
I am planning to visit Tanzania to watch migration in the future and I will be happy to use this company again.

Fantastic trip, would definitely recommend it!
Fantastic trip - we spent a week on safari with the main aim of visiting the gorillas, anything else we saw was a bonus in our eyes, but the chimpanzee trekking was so exciting. The elephants & the amount of them was mind blowing..... and of course the gorillas were amazing. We feel so privileged to have seen these animals.
Our driver/guide, Ajok was very helpful, very friendly & really tried to meet all out needs. All the accommodation was 5 *, very clean, very safe & really friendly staff. Definitely can't complain about anything & would really recommend this tour with Achieve Global - Mark in the office sorted everything for us & all via email.
Thank you

A unique experience
From the start Mark had been quick to respond to my emails even after changing my mind several times about various routes and number of passengers.
When we arrived Patrick and Mark were there waiting to meet us at the airport. They were friendly and knowledgeable about the area. During the course of the tour, Patrick made sure that the hotels catered for all our needs, especially my parents unusual dietary requirements. He would stop and buy local food along the way for us to sample, including red bananas!
It was a pleasure touring Uganda with Achieve Global Safaris, a unique and wonderful experience. Thank you so much for all the great memories.
Efficient and Friendly
Polly and his staff did their best to accommodate all our special requests and they went out of their way to take excellent care of us from start to finish. We enjoyed our trip immensely and are happy to recommend their tour company.
