Amazing week in Uganda
We had an incredible time in Uganda this summer, it was very well organised and we felt in safe hands the whole time. We went gorilla trekking in the Bwindi National Park, and on safari in the Queen Elizabeth National Park. Gorilla Trekking was the highlight, definitely something to tick off the bucket list. Overall, i couldn't fault our trip, and would recommend it to anyone and everyone!

The best way to travel in Uganda
We have just returned from the holiday experience of a lifetime in Uganda, and have to thank Uzuri Safaris for making it possible. As we had only four days to cover huge distances, have as wide an experience as possible and of course see some gorillas, it was a logistical proposition for them to tackle. The gorilla experience was of course the highlight, and will be remembered long after the photographs fade. The flights to Bwindi, the accommodation there, and subsequently in Queen Elizabeth National Park were Extremely good. Our guide, Noel was the perfect combination in a guide in Africa; wildlife expert, safe driver and a courteous, lovely guy. I would recommend highly.
Fantastic road-trip to Mombasa
I love being on the road and I appreciate Africa Uzuri Safaris for making the road trip to Mombasa memorable for me and all the people I met and traveled with. We had a stop over at a pretty good Hotel in Nairobi and set off the next morning for Gasaro Hotel in Mtwapa Mombasa where the fun kicked off. We were given a great half board deal by the hotel and the rooms, ambiance and environment were nothing less than perfect. The visit to Fort Jesus included a tour of the breath taking place and the surrounding landmarks. Malindi is also another beautiful place we got to see thanks to Africa Uzuri Safaris; the sands, the people, the great vibe was over all beautiful with no hassle. Any complications that arose during the trip were handled immediately even before anyone noticed there was any; it was a well organised, planned and set up trip and it'll be great to travel with Africa Uzuri Safaris again soon. It made the time off work more than worth it!

“A Magical Uganda experience with Africa Uzuri Safaris”
Our family safari holiday to Uganda was handled professionally by Africa Uzuri Safaris and I would recommend them highly. We were met at Entebbe airport by our driver/guide who transferred us to Cassia Lodge in Kampala for an overnight stay. Our safari started in Jinja where we visited the Source of the Nile and later participated in adrenaline-raising activities. The whole experience was indeed magical as the experience of riding quad bikes on dirt trails beside the Nile, to the game safari in the Murchison Falls National Park were all wonderful. We would never have included these attractions on our itinerary if we had chosen to do it ourselves – we would have missed out on some of the fun. Rummaging through Kibale Forest National Park in search of chimpanzees and learning about the other 12 primates that live in this forest, the birdlife and plants was very refreshing. However, nothing prepares you for an encounter with the Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi. We tracked gorillas in Buhoma – the northern sector because of its gentler terrain (on recommendation from Edris) but all I have to say is that the mandatory 1-hour we spent in the presence of the gentle gorillas was the most magical. The accommodations were perfect all the way. Our driver/guide Twaha was very professional and knowledgeable. If you are planning travel to Uganda, don’t hesitate, book with them.

Unforgettable and worth every cent.
I didn't normally feel any loyalty to a travel company...but that is all changed now. Edris is one of the most caring people I have ever come across. His knowledge and planning capabilities are fantastic. The guide chosen was above outstanding. We travelled as a team of 6 for a 3 day trip to Murchison Falls National Park and had the experience of a lifetime. We had such a wonderful time and it was a rewarding holiday experience.
I would highly recommend this tour company.

The most incredible experience of my life.
The tour was incredible, and even despite having various issues with our payment, Edris was incredibly understanding and patient with us, and allowed us to take time to figure out our situation before sending us safely on our way. The sights were breathtaking, our driver was very keen on finding a lion for us and he did! I will never forget this experience and I will definitely be doing another safari with Uzuri again in the near future.

An amazing experience
We contacted Uzuri Safaris to arrange our 8 days safari holiday to Uganda and from the get go, Edris, who we were in communication with at the office throughout the arrangement of the trip was very professional; responding to emails quickly and answering all our queries regarding the trip. Once we got to Uganda, we fell in love with everything – the people, food, wildlife and the scenery and a lot more. Our driver/guide who spoke perfect English and knew all the places we visited like the back of his hand did a wonderful job and we are very grateful to him for making our trip enjoyable. The highlight was the 1-hour we spent with the Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi – what an experience! The accommodations that were selected from the hotel in Kampala, the lodge in Kibale Forest, Queen Elizabeth National Park and in Bwindi were clean and comfortable. To sum it all up, we had a wonderful time in Uganda

The most beautiful roadtrip with the kindest service; seeing the most beautiful animals in the world
The Safari was fantastic! The communication was 100% on point. We knew what we were doing, when we were supposed to do it. The living accommodations were beautiful! The first resort we stayed at was right off the Nile, you could hear the hippos and other animals; very peaceful. The last hotel in Kampala before going home was extraordinary, better than anything I could have ever expected. The local food is fantastic, we picked some up along the way and we couldn't have been happier. The safari was fantastic. We saw elephants, giraffes, lions and even a leopard. I would suggest bringing some binoculars for the far away animals such as the leopard because you have to stay on the road with the vehicle, but a game warden joins the tour and they are extremely knowledgeable. We saw way more animals but without going to in depth, it was like I was in a national geographic episode. This has been the best experience of my life and I highly recommend you book through Uzuri.
