Excellent experiences with Wamba Safaris!
During 2018 we were using the services of Wamba Safaris for 2 trips to Uganda.
We went to Uganda in April/May and in October 2018 again. After giving 2 weeks of training to develop education together with colleagues on a vocational institute in Kamuli, for the Dutch organisation called Edukans, we had the time to enjoy the beautiful country Uganda.
We were very lucky that we got in touch with Immanuel Wamba and his nice company ‘Wamba Safaris’. Immanuel himself was our driver and guide during our both trips. He did a wonderful job.
He showed us the beauty of the people and nature. Travelling by his own Safari bus he took us through the country the way we really wanted it. Immanuel is a very safe and relaxed driver and a very pleasant person to travel with. He has a lot of knowledge about the country and he plans and organizes the tour very well. In advance we had a clear overview by e-mail of the possibilities Immanuel could offer us. His communication was very good, clear and friendly during this progress of putting a trip together. Immanuel is an very customer friendly person and flexible in the way he approaches his clients. We stayed in nice hotels and beautiful lodges, we felt very comfortable.
We really enjoyed visiting the tribes in the Karamoja area and the two beautiful National Parks; Murchison Falls and Kidepo NP. We felt like we saw the real Uganda with Immanuel on our side.
We would like to recommend Wamba Safaris for anyone wo wants to make a nice tour through Uganda! The next time we are going to Uganda, he will certainly be the one we are going to call.

Best Africa Experience with the greatest Tourguide!
We requested several Uganda offers from different tour Operators. Wamba Safaris (Sofia and Immanuel) always replied very quick to our requests and made modifications to our itinerary according to our wishes.
The tour itself with our guide Immanuel was outstanding, i we could we would rate it with 100 stars :-) Immanuel has his own bus (max. 6 people), we were only 2 and it was very comfortable. He is a very good and safe driver too. The roof can be opened for the safari tours.
The price for the tour was very reasonable compared to other providers and it was worth every dollar!
Immanuel arranged the best possible adventure for us, whenever we had any special requests - he made it possible!
All lodges were fantastic too.
We are very experienced Africa travellers and Uganda is definitely among our favorite countries - so many varied landscapes/animal adventures.
We can recommend Wamba Safaris 100% :-)

Outstanding - the owners of Wamba Gorilla Tours really do everything to make guests feel welcome!
I wasn't involved much in the planning of the trip prior to arrival (but was told that it went very smoothly and questions were dealt with very rapidly and professionally) but what I can definitely comment on is the level of expertise and commitment once we arrived:
Wamba Gorilla Tours is run by Immanuel and Sofia. We travelled with Immanuel for the duration of the trip and it is evident that he likes what he is doing and is dedicated to providing guests with a memorable trip. The planning was sound, necessary adaptations were dealt with efficiently and with great committment. And what I consider most valuable of all Immanuel proved to be a very attentive host with good people skills and a great eye for detail. Along the way he would suggest slight changes to the schedule that never disappointed but always lead us closer to a personalised and more enjoyable experience, adapted itinerarys happily to fit our needs and likings and through all of that always was enjoyable company.
Long story short: Thank you Immanuel (& Sofia) for this perfect holiday, I think you're doing an amazing job (in an beautiful country - if you're unsure about whether or not to got to Uganda: I loved it) and I'm very happy to tell fellow travellers just that :-)

perfekt tour, flexibel composition with Emmanuel on our side, personally engaged. To recommend!!
From the beginning to the end a fine tour. Wamba did a fine Job finding the Ressorts, we saw the Big Five inclusive Leopard, the service in the camps was fine. Wambas big advantage is the small size Company, so he could be extremely flexible and react in our desires.

Fantastic trip to a fascinating country!
Our tour included the Murchinson Falls National Park (game drives and boat cruise + hiking to the falls), Chimpanzee tracking, Rhino tracking, a boat cruise on Lake Victoria, city tours in Kampala and Jinja. Even though the 5 days had been thoroughly planned by Immanuel beforehand, he was extremely flexible so that we could make some changes in the programme, add personal preferences as visiting local markets etc. Thanks to Immanuel's experience in finding the animals, we have enjoyed the great diversity of wildlife and even completed the Big Five! Also, the service and food in the lodges was excellent. As Immanuel lives in Kampala and knows many people there, we even had the chance to visit a carpentry workshop and see people working and living there. All in all, the trip was an extremely special and unforgettable experience, not only because of the multifaceted activities, but also because of our great tour guide who informed us very well about Uganda, its people, history and cultures.

Safe, Trusted, Personal, Excellent
This is the second time that I have booked a safari with Immanuel at Wamba. This safari was to Kidepo Valley and the north. When I plan the next safari, it will also be with Wamba.
Choosing Wamba means that you will be safe on the safari. You can trust Immanuel with deposits, planning and flexibility for changes.
Immanuel cares about your experience, will adapt to circumstances on safari and is as excited as you are to find and see what you are seeking.
I highly recommend Wamba.

Excellent tour to Lake Mburo with Wamba Gorilla Tours
With great pleasure we look back on the trip we made in Uganda with Wamba Gorilla Tours. In a few days, the owner of Wamba Gorilla Tours, Immanuel Wamba, showed us a beautiful part of Uganda. From the capital Kampala we traveled to the south of Uganda where we visited Lake Mburo, a relatively unknown but beautiful NP of Uganda. Immanuel found a beautiful Lodge (Hyena Hill Lodge) for us near the entrance to the park. He personally took us on safari through the animal-rich and beautiful park, we could not have wished for more than this. We are very satisfied with the service that Wamba Gorilla Tours has offered us, our wishes have been taken into account in everything. Moreover, Immanuel is a pleasant and extremely reliable driver, he is very flexible in his supervision of the trip and, above all, also pleasant company. We are also very satisfied about the price-quality ratio. We can absolutely recommend Wamba Gorilla Tours to anyone who is considering traveling and / or going on a safari in Uganda. We will gladly make use of the services of this company again for the next trip.

Immanuel is a very carefull driver who knows a lot about every place we went to.
We were always picked up at the time we arranged. Immanuel is easy to get in touch with. He makes travelling in Uganda a careless and inmpressive event you will never forget.
