Action packed - Yala Safaris really went the extra mile!
5/5

The really fantastic time we had during our two weeks in Uganda were only made possible by Yala Safaris and especially Godwin!
Godwin's knowledge not just of the wildlife we were there to see but of Uganda in general meant that almost any question we could think of had an enthusiastic answer!
Yala was especially good at being adapting to our particular needs. We were particularly keen to pack in as much as possible and to see as much wildlife as we could in the time we had, and Yala was more than happy to accommodate this. Our perseverance resulted in the eventual sighting of a rare leopard and its cub in Queen Elizabeth National Park, the pinnacle of two days of classic East African wildlife sightings.
Yala really did go beyond the call of duty to ensure we saw some of the best of what Uganda has to offer. While we spent our first week in Godwin's care he gave us some great advice for our second week which we found really invaluable.
It was clear that a lot of research and networking goes into providing this experience (it appeared to me that Godwin knows nearly everyone in Uganda!!) which meant that both our accommodation at Park View Lodge overlooking QE National park and at Lake Bunyoni were absolutely stunning.

All in all a huge thank you to Godwin and his team at Yala Safaris. It comes highly recommended!

We had a good time traveling with Yala Safaris. They have good drivers who are so kind and willing to make you reach your destination safely. They do provide the best service that any traveler would look for.

Incredible
5/5

The driver Mr. Godwin was like family to me. He was so friendly and I liked his enthusiasm.
With his way of conduct, he loved his job and acted so professional in his first class vehicle. I couldn't ask for another company other than Yala Safari for my trip to Kampala. I really wanna do this again.
One more thing I shouldn't forget. Thanks for being so punctual!!
Please keep this up.

Yet another great experience with Yala Safaris
5/5

We have used Yala Safaris a number of times for our travels in Uganda, and have never been disappointed. Whether you want a standard safari in Murchison or a customized trip to the Mgahinga volcanos, Yala Safaris can organise it all without any fuss and at a great price. Communication is quick and easy and the quality of vehicles, accommodation, etc... is always great, regardless of our budget. All in all, we have no complaints and would highly recommend them!

The most informative, flexible and fun-packed safari ever - top marks to Godwin and Yala Safaris!
5/5

We planned a trip to Queen Elizabeth National Park and Lake Bunyonyi, over the course of 6 days. We chose exactly how long we spent in each place and were ensured of the lowest price around (Yala Safaris will beat any quote you receive!). Our driver Godwin was with us the whole time, and was always enthusiastic, friendly and making sure we were having the kind of trip we expected. He made many recommendations throughout our stay and our trip ended up being quite different in terms of activities than we'd originally planned, due to the fact that we found better alternatives and Godwin was always able to arrange these last minute changes of plan. I really couldn't recommend highly enough!!

A fantastic trip to Sippi Falls
5/5

We had the pleasure of using Yala Safaris in August on a fantastic trip to Sippi Falls. Our head tour guide, Godwin, was great at explaining the abundant wildlife and varying landscapes. We will never forget our trip.

Thanks

The most accommodating tour and safari company in Uganda!
5/5

Between 2015 and 2016 I have been on around 8 trips with Yala Safaris. Yala staff have made every effort in order to find us the best prices in the best locations. All of the staff are kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. We have visited many of the popular (and less popular) destinations in Uganda and the Yala team have never failed to make these trips wonderful. Yala can cater to all budgets and trips and have great connections with good people all over the country. Whatever it is you need, Yala can cater for you in a professional and kind manner.

Thanks so much to everyone at Yala for making our trips so special!
