StarMount Safaris understands the logistics and aesthetics of how to travel meaningfully.
5/5

When I think of my experience traveling with StarMount Safaris, I am reminded of the trip I took to visit Queen Elizabeth National Park. I remember getting to the park just before daybreak. I was standing on a hillside when the sun started to pierce a group of pregnant clouds. The horizon turned fire orange as rays of light streamed through and bounced off the shimmering waters of Lake George in a valley framed equally on all sides by hills touching the sky and low-lying savannah.

I snapped a picture of the scene on my phone and texted it to a friend back in America — and instantaneously felt guilty for not just standing there and living in the moment, bathing in the wonder of Uganda. In the far reaches of western Uganda, where it borders the Democratic Republic of Congo, I saw wild game, birds, beasts and reptiles. The vast game reserve was named after Queen Elizabeth II, following a visit in 1954.

But more than the animals, it was the scenery that stirred deep feelings in me — the endless rolling green fields, cloud-topped mountain ranges, dramatic cliffs, swamps and forests, seamlessly melding into rivers, crater lakes and tributaries that comprise the River Nile watershed. I could see why a young Winston Churchill, after a journey through Africa, famously dubbed Uganda “the pearl of Africa.”

As I reflect on that moment, I realize that all of that experience was especially curated by the folks at StarMount Safari. They are exceptionally knowledgeable about the not only the countryside in Uganda, but also how to travel. The staff is adept at planning trips, drawing up all the crucial details of a trip—no detail is too small to ignore— to make sure that you have an awesome experience.

The communications by StarMount Safaris was excellent. The service was exceptional and my experience with them absolutely exceeded my expectations. I would recommend StarMount Safaris to anyone interested in traveling and seeing Uganda and East Africa.

The communication was prompt and open. The service was top notch as we always had some one to clarify any queries on short notice.
I love the fact that even when they were not able to provide exactly what we wanted , a viable option was always provided.

5/5

Holiday in Uganda will forever be memorable. StarMount Safaris made everything much easier than we expected, the pick-up from Entebbe International Airport to our hotel, and the warm welcome helped us settle in easily. The tour guide/driver were hands on with lots of information and very good time keepers. We enjoyed the Church Hill Courts and ohh. The Apoke Lodge, the variety of wild animals at Kidepo National Park, the cultural tour amazing not forgetting the Manyata :)

Thank you StarMount Safaris, we will be back soon!!!!!!

rekking Mountain Kilimanjaro was one of the best things I have done in my life. It was not so easy but with the help of StarMount Safaris’ team I was able to concur Mount Kilimanjaro! The experience was priceless; words cannot begin to explain what my experience was… It was truly a memorable experience.

Me and my friends booked a gorilla tracking safari in the Mgahinga 3 months ahead. StarMount Safaris kept in touch throughout until I arrived in Uganda. The tracking began early in the morning and the guide was very patient and made sure we saw the Mountain Gorillas which was the highlight of the safari. We were able to interact with the local communities (Batwa) which was quite interesting. I look forward to booking with StarMount Safaris for my next adventure.

An outstanding itinerary and personal attention
5/5

StarMount Safaris arranged a superior safari for my husband and me. The itinerary allowed us to do so much and see so many sights. Each lodge had its own personality, and all were a pleasure to stay in. Ronnie was simply an outstanding guide. By the time we got home, we were supremely and happily exhausted. :) :)

Thank you StarMount Safaris for an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
