Sensational tour company
5/5

Absolutely the best there is in Uganda. Africa adventure vacations went above and beyond to make sure we had a trip of a lifetime. Robert was great at organising and Caesar executed it with perfection. Caesar was a great tour guide and a pleasure to be in the company of. Thank you for everything! We will see you in Tanzania soon!

Amazing experience
5/5

This 3 day safari was an amazing experience, we enjoyed it a lot! The communication ahead of our trip with the organiser Robert was easy and smooth. On the accommodation, Pumba Cottages provided an authentic experience, it was great to be so close to nature, and all the staff was helpful and kind. Queen Elizabeth park and Kalinzu forest were beautiful and provided a full-on safari and chimp trekking experience, we were able to see a huge variety of animals. This is of course thanks to Muzafulu, our guide who was swiftly communicating with other drivers, and knowing when and where to go. "M" was a very knowledgeable guide, always happy to answer all our questions on animals, on Ugandan lifestyle or on the next activities in the agenda. He was kind and polite, always inquiring how we are and making sure that we have everything we need. In contrast to Kenya, where we had a group tour, we really appreciated that this tour was private, yet it was very nice to be able to talk with M on a variety of subjects. He is a cheerful and easy-going guide, and we would wholeheartedly recommend him as a guide and the whole of this tour to everyone. So thanks a lot for this tour and special thanks to M!!

Experience of a lifetime!
5/5

We're just back from our honeymoon in Uganda. We'd been planning our honeymoon for about a year through African Adventure Vacations. Robert was great at suggesting an itinerary and customising it to suit our needs. Also answering our many questions! We arranged everything through them.

Our guide Frank (who we highly recommend asking for) met us at the airport and from that point on was our expert guide (and fixer) to the country. He is really passionate and knowledgeable about Uganda and did a fantastic job in spotting all the wildlife whilst driving us around. He even managed to spot us the Big Five on our first day's game drive.

The hotels / camps suggested were all of a high quality. We enjoyed the variety of different styles of accommodation.

Highlight of the trip was definitely seeing the Mountain Gorilla's in Bwindi. Frank used his connections to set us up with a great family group of gorilla's that had two silverbacks (very unusual!) and two infants. It was such an amazing experience.

The whole trip was out of this world and lived up to all my hopes and dreams (I've dreamt of going to Uganda since I was a kid). It's given us so many amazing memories to last a lifetime.

I would definitely recommend African Adventure Vacations as an operator and 100% ask for Frank as a guide! We felt very lucky indeed!

LIFETIME EXPERIENCE
5/5

I can't even explain HOW AMAZING the experience was with Robert, Frank and all the team. We booked a private luxury safari for our honeymoon, and it was the best decision. Incredible adventure, best safari, very bespoke to our interest and preferences. We end up the trip with a horse-riding safari... It was just the cherry on top! Don't hesitate... THE BEST!

Well organized, on time and with a wonderful guide that made sure we had an experience of a lifetime
5/5

Everything went smoothly right from the booking, communication was offered both through mail and WhatsApp and we made an individual plan for us. First day we were picked up promptly. All in all we are more than happy with the tour. We got to see the animals we wanted to see and the guide was very knowledgeable and gave us interesting information throughout. Next time around we will insist on having the same guide again.

Amazing Experience with Amazing Company!
5/5

My husband and I had a fantastic time during our 10-day Uganda tour with Africa Adventure Vacations! Our tour guide was Najib, and he was so helpful, friendly and fun (and put up with our constant questions). This was our first visit to Uganda, so we were eager to explore as much as possible, and had a jam-packed itinerary. Some days we spent quite a few hours in the car, traveling to our next destination, but we enjoyed Najib's company and the scenery and snacks (Rolex!!!) along the way. It is hard to pick just one highlight of our trip, but mountain gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest was incredible and so rewarding. With such a busy itinerary, we stayed in quite a few different accommodations (maybe 6 or 7?) and each one was fabulous!!! The Ugandan people truly were so welcoming and friendly, and I really don't think we could have had a better time. We would absolutely recommend using Africa Adventure Vacations as your tour booking company - shout out to Robert who made getting booked and sorted easy! And a huge shout out to Najib - best guide/driver ever! Genuinely cannot wait to return.

Best gorilla safari company
5/5

we booked a last minute honeymoon gorilla safari package with Africa adventure vacations but ashiraf was so helpful, he managed to secure us the gorilla permits and also booked our accommodation.
He was very responsive and answered all the necessary questions during safari planning
We had a hustle free tour with great services and we will recommend AAV
