Best holiday ever!
We had a wonderful trip with Ababa safari tours and travels. Our guide, Hamsa, was really caring and has nice stories about Uganda, his experiences and the animals. Robert organized it very well. I liked our stay in Queen Elizabeth National Park at Engiri Game Lodge. My high light was the gorilla that trekking. I could really recommend a safari with this agency. You could add one day at the Lake after the hikes, for some relaxation. :-)

5-Day-Gorilla-and-Chimpanzee-Safari
Compared to other tour operators Ababa offered us the best price in total. Although there were some communication problems at the beginning we enjoyed the 5-Day-Safari filled with great experiences. The accommodations lived up to our expectations with good service and delicious food. Sadly our guide wasn‘t able to join us before the third day of safari. Until then we were accompanied by our driver who did his best but couldn’t really explain a lot. From then on our guide took good care of us. We even extended the safari by adding another day visiting the Lake Bunyonyi. The safari tour has a timetable rich in variety including the Chimpanzee Trekking as well as a Gorilla Trekking, a Boat Cruise which is a great safari experience itself and some game drives trough Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi National Park.

Budget friendly and very educational.
All round a very good company. I was kept informed of what was going on and what stages we were at with booking my trip. Mostly done through WhatsApp. My driver was a proper local and a keen birdwatcher, something I didn’t know I’d get to learn about on my 12 days. Every day on safari and in the Bush were a treat as I’d constantly be getting taught something. Accommodation provided was very fair for the price I paid and the vehicle good too. It broke down, but given the condition of the roads, I wasn’t surprised.

Excellent, trustworthy, friendly and knowledgeable
We contacted Robert as a result of an internet search. He replied promptly to our email and was easy to contact. He listened to our interests and created an itinerary that was convenient and covered most of what we wanted to see and do. His driver Hamza was great and we felt safe driving around with him. In Rwanda he connected us with Oscar who was fantastic. We hope we can visit Uganda again and explore a different side of the country.

Very personable, prompt, professional. Excellent service. We had a fabulous time
Robert and Hamza were both great. They were very knowledgeable and were flexible and cooperative when we wanted to make changes. My family and I have travelled to many countries around the world and I can say with confidence that Ababa was one of our better tour guides. They went above and beyond and we were extremely satisfied. We recommend them highly.
