A perfectly planned taste of Uganda
I had two days to explore Kampala and its surroundings and opted for an excursion to the source of the Nile in Jinja, followed by a hike in Mabira forest and Sezibwa falls. The whole trip was perfectly planned, including our stops for meals, boat trip on the Nile, and expert guides. Joan knew everything about birds, and even how to imitate their calls. Fiona was a very responsible and conscientious driver and it was empowering to see a female take the wheel in Uganda. I felt very safe. Finally, management checked in on a regular basis to make sure all was well. Because I was travelling on my own for most of the trip, it reassured me that the company was keeping tabs on its clients. This is an ideal tour if you have just a couple days to spare. I will definitely book with MUKISA when I return to Uganda next time!

Service beyond expected
My partner and i visited Uganda in Mid -March as that was the only we could squeeze this year having failed to travel during December due to the travel disruptions that were brought about by the Omicron variant.
I should say that all my grief for having not celebrated my 10th anniversary in Africa as planned in December was cured by the wonderful organization by Mukisa Safaris Uganda.
The comfort and assurance I got from Richard and after our last minute cancellation was great. We had fully paid for the trip and only to get an email that our flights had been cancelled and therefore couldn’t travel.
Thank God our trip was with the right and reputable company. Richard made sure that he handled the schedules very well and we got our dream trip to see gorillas and golden monkeys.
I really recommend Mukisa Safaris to anybody intending to visit Uganda. I advise that you pay keen attention to every word written in the email. Richard will always be willing to offer information that’s of great importance for the successful organization of the trip.
The lodges we stayed in were super clean and in a purely natural setting.
Am very grateful to all the team especially my guide Veronica who was very knowledgeable about Uganda. Solomon who was our driver took good care of us on the roads and we felt safe entirely.
Thank you Mukisa Safaris. We got more than we expected. We will surely return for an extension to the North and North Eastern part of Uganda.

Exceedingly humbled by their services
We had an amazing and special 12 days holiday in Uganda arranged by Mukisa Safaris Uganda
The service from Mukisa Safaris was excellent from initial enquiry to the end of our trip. Communication and recommendations were good, payment was easy and safe and the service provided was beyond our expectation. We expected a great trip but this went beyond all our expectations.
The lodges we were booked in were good, clean and confortable. Everything went on well as planned.
We saw and experienced so much and Uganda is far lovelier than we could have ever imagined.
Veronica was a very good guide. She was knowledgeable and excellent at spotting animals and birds and she acted very swiftly at getting us the front seats on boat trips.
The parks we visited were fantastic, lush, and green and we got up close to animals during the game drives. The highlight of the trip was the gorilla trekking. We managed to get up close to the gorilla family we trekked and it was such an adventurous moment considering the up and down trekking through a thick forest.
We had a holiday that will live on in our memories forever.
I would happily recommend Mukisa Safaris Uganda to anyone who wishes to travel to East Africa and Uganda in particular.

Great and wonderful experience
I with 4 friends had a fantastic experience of 3 days in Murchison Falls National Park organized by Mukisa Safaris Uganda.Indeed Uganda is a pearl of Africa and I feel proud of my motherland for its beautiful natural endowments.
Having only seen animals on animal planet tv channel,it was such an amazing experience being in close proximity with animals I had hither to watched on TV. It was a great experience standing close to giraffes, elephants and many more animals.
Am thankful to Mukisa Safaris Uganda for organising our trip very well at an affordable price. I highly recommend them for anyone within or outside the country seek their services because they're such a professional company

Beautiful country and professional company
I visited Africa and Uganda gave me the most memorable experiences. When I contacted Mukisa Safaris Uganda, their replies were always prompt and genuine. They advised me on how to go along with the tour. indeed my trip was customised according to my preferences and I can't thank them enough for the way my trip was organized and executed. We had a very good guide Veronica and driver John who are very professional, friendly and curtious.
We visited Jinja , Murchison falls , Queen Elizabeth national parks and Saw alot of animals. Africa is indeed where nature is and it was unbelievable that we were just walking in the midst of animals which we had only seen on TV.
Gorilla tracking was awesome and it's such a wonderful experience that every person should undertake when you visit Uganda. It involved walking up and down in the thick forest for several hours and when we finally saw them,it was such amazing standing a few metres from these huge creatures. I really thank the team of Mukisa Safaris for my Wonderful trip and I recommend them for everyone in the world who wants to travel to Uganda to seek their services

Overwhelmed by excellent service beyond our expectations
Our family of 4 adults did a 12 days tour in Uganda which was our first safari. We found Mukisa Safaris during our pre tour planning to be so reliable, trustworthy , informative and curtious and we held very high expectations and I can happily say that Mukisa Safaris Uganda still managed to exceed our expectations. Email responses were always prompt and our tour was customised according to our preference. We were met at the airport upon arrival by the company representatives together with our guide and driver. Our guide Veronica was such an amazing, knowledgeable , informative and friendly.Of course not forgetting our driver John!!! Not only did we enjoy their company tremendously, but we always felt safe and well looked after by them. We opted for the luxury package and the hotels/lodges were amazing. We traversed Uganda's country side from Entebbe to the north east- Kidepo, Murchison Falls,Kibale , Queen Elizabeth National Park and to the South West- Bwindi; the home of mountain gorillas. We traveled by a Toyota 4x4 safari Van which was confortable equipped with all the amenities including the Wi-Fi and we were always in touch online with our family back home.
We highly recommend this company and their safaris!

What a fabulous, amazing, exciting time I had in Uganda with Mukisa Safaris
I was a solo female traveller, Richard was very considerate in providing the lovely Veronica as my guide. She was warm, friendly and very knowledgable. She even bought me a pack of cards and taught me a Ugandan game. Sam was a very reliable driver with a great sense of humour. Uganda is beautiful. I did 2 gorilla treks, saw wildlife, immersed in the culture and had a lot of fun on the way. The lodges were fabulous and the food endless. An all round amazing time. Would highly recommend Richard and his team.

Trip of a lifetime
This was truly the trip of a lifetime. I can’t say enough about how pleased I was that I chose MUKISA. Joan our guide and John our driver took great care of us. They were great at spotting animals and were so concerned that we had an amazing trip. The communication with Richard prior to the trip was great. He quickly responded to any question I had. I loved the time I spent in UGANDA and will cherish the memories. MUKISA was great at having everything planned perfectly. Joan and John were able to confidently handle anything that might come up like heavy rains or a barge that wasn’t in service.

Everything we could of asked for!
My boyfriend and I recently returned from our trip to Uganda and Rwanda with Mukisa Safaris and we really couldn’t of asked for anything more - from start to finish it was perfect. Right from the beginning, everything was organised with the upmost precision and professionalism. Richard tailormade our dream trip which took into account our specific needs. Before, during and after our trip the communication was great; Richard was always on hand to answer any questions and to make sure we were comfortable with everything.
Our guide Joan and driver John were amazing - their knowledge and expertise was really impressive and we couldn’t of asked for a nicer pair to look after us and spend time with on our trip! Everything went smoothly and was just as expected; the accommodation was great, the food always excellent and of course seeing all the wildlife was the highlight.
It really was a once in a lifetime trip and couldn’t recommend Mukisa Safaris highly enough. It’s nice to book with a local travel agency as you know exactly where your money is going and compared to other English tour operators, you’re definitely getting your moneys worth. Thank you once again for our wonderful trip!
