They do everything they can to make you happy.
We did a lot of research on the internet and settled for Euro Uganda Safaris due to other reviews. I was completely impressed with their service and would recommend booking with them. I worked with Victor on securing permits and planning our 11-day trip. His communication was prompt and everything that he planned turned out perfectly. We did a budget safari and the accommodations and food were excellent. They actually surpassed my expectations.
Stanly was our driver and guide and we loved him! He took great care of my family, was always on time, and very organized. I can't say enough about Stanly. He was fantastic as a driver, and also knew the roads and animals in the park very well. He handled all the park entrances, ferry crossing (knew the exact schedule) and EVERYTHING. He made it effortless for us. And everything was included in our safari package, as promised. The only things not included were soft drinks and tips.
In terms of our trip we loved seeing the variety of animals that Uganda has to offer. We took advantage of the Chimp Habituation Experience and were so happy to have the full day rather than 1 hour with them. We saw so many different types of animals and landscapes that it was almost hard to keep up with. I recommend the optional add on's as well such as a walking tour in Lake Mburo, and the waterfall hike in Buhoma area.
We saw hippos and mountain gorillas that were close enough to touch. Among the other animals, we encountered were elephants, lions, antelopes, buffaloes, warthogs and the elusive leopard (an animal that I had never before witnessed in the wild). Our guide was a highly proficient tracker; he always got us safely within range to take beautiful photos. He even kept us fully stocked with packed meals of savoury Ugandan cuisine, water and delicious Ugandan pineapples, mangoes and bananas for all of our outings.
I have travelled with many different companies in various countries and have to say this one was the best to work with by far. In short, I would VERY HIGHLY recommend this safari company to anyone who wants to visit a game park in Uganda.

Would I recommend Euro? Yes Yes Yes ! without hesitation
From my first initial inquiries (there were many!) thru Diana, Victor, until our arrival in Entebbe, all queries were handled promptly and with professionalism. I may be correct in saying the one thing most people may be concerned about is transferring your hard-earned $$$ to firstly pay your deposit and then the final balance of the tour - and will it really get there or are you just sending it to a temporary bank-account for the pleasure of someone else at the other end! Heh! And while one of our transactions took a few weeks (deep breaths!), and another transaction came out a tad short despite us sending the correct money - never fear - it all works out in the end and it's not a bogus bank-account!!
We came back from an 8 days excursion through the Southern part of Uganda where we covered the triangle of Kibale, Queen Elizabeth and Southern Bwindi. We were blessed with the company of Musa and driver Stanly and could not have asked for a more pleasant and accommodating couple to share the highlight of this part of Uganda. Not only was Stanly an expert and careful driver, but he was also full of understated humour while explaining our encounters with flora, fauna and cultural phenomenons unknown to us. I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Our car was very comfortable and roomy with a retractable rood which was perfect for game viewing and picture taking. The hotels were all superb and the food was delicious. The actual activities are so worth it, from the gorilla tracking to the rinho sanctuary. If you consider going to Uganda, which I think you definitely should make sure to go with Euro Uganda Safari and do not just go there seeing it all through a camera lens. The landscape is in parts astounding, the primates a once in a lifetime experience, but above all, the encounters with the people of Uganda is what will warm your hearts the most.
Literally, thousands of dollars per person remains with those companies and not in the country of destination because people are fearful of using local operators. Using a local and trusted operator is not only cheaper, many more people would be able to consider and afford a trip, including Gorilla and Chimp trekking, to Uganda, if they were to consider using a trusted a company like Prime Safaris. DO NOT HESITATE! CHOOSE EURO!

Amazing Travel!!
The skill of a guide can be seen in the moment of the unexpected.
we went on holiday in January 2020. Euro was very easy to do business with, we regularly communicated until we made our mind up.
We were met at the airport by a friendly representative who took us to our first hotel. Our main driver, Musa popped by later to introduce himself.
The safari was challenging, some of the days were long but we knew that beforehand and it meant we got to see most of the great parks of Uganda. I loved everything they had laid on and Musa was very knowledgeable. I would have given this company 5 stars anyway but they excelled themselves with their care.
Unfortunately I developed shingles whilst travelling and so they drove me back to Kampala from Kidepo to get to a hospital. Victor then accompanied me all day at the hospital whilst I was seen by 3 consultants. Musa then took me back to continue my itinerary. They had to rearrange several hotels which all happened for me seamlessly. I was still quite poorly and Musa took amazing care and adapted the trip to suit. I had to miss the gorilla trek due to my infection so I am going back when I'm completely recovered and it will definitely be with Euro Uganda Safaris.
Many thanks guys.

Great experience!
Group of us had two days safari ride in Murchison Falls National park. From it's beginning in Kampala, we had pleasure to be guided by Euro Uganda Safaris, and all of us have just nice words for knowledge, professionalism, but above all, human approach and friendly attitude of their guide, fantastic guy called Victor. Always on our disposal, unobtrusive attitude, polite manners, smiling face. After few hour only, he was one of us, but with good feeling how to react in different situation, ready to explain in more details whatever our question was. We had great safari, we saw all important animals, elephants, giraffes, various antelopes, buffaloes, jackal, baboons, many bird species, and even lions. We all strongly recommend this agency, but don't forget, ask for Victor!

This was truly the trip of a lifetime
the visit was set up through Euro Uganda Safaris. we picked them more than a few others since victor was the most provoking in reacting and the most expert in noting the majority of inquiries. The excursion itself would not have half as brilliant without our guide/ driver and a new companion, Musa. He was paying special mind to us all times , so far as to work for us on his three day weekend. in generally speaking Uganda , the trek was just the best. He was so incredibly persistent all through our adventure continually grinning, connecting with and engaging us, even after extended periods of time driving here was intrigued to give us an extraordinary amazement.
He halted in the nearby market so we could purchase a new organic product, took us to the neighborhood school so we could offer desserts to the youngsters,took us to the best nectar shop in the nation, ceased to present neighborhood nourishment and once in a while notwithstanding amid the exchange to demonstrate to us a flying creature or en light us concerning the territory . i cant express gratitude toward Musa enough to make our Uganda trip so critical. He ensured we were constantly upbeat and agreeable.
The short proximity to our experience with these creatures made us feel stunning!
We delighted in w watercraft journey too on lake Edward . We could see hippos in a short proximity. When we came to Bwindi for gorilla trekking,i felt just as the whole world ceased here. It was simply cool seeing these animals only a couple feet away. The guide made it a point that we didn't pass up a great opportunity a solitary piece of the visit. I wish to stretch out my thankfulness to Musa who drove us and guided every everyone of us through our safari .
He was stunning and made a great deal of fun. He spiced up our visit and we never discovered anything exhausting. In particular, he was entirely educated about everything. He was on time, ensured we benefited from each drive and were truly adaptable. It was an incredible trek to ever treasure with an exceptionally proficient team who made the experience cute.

It was a good experience
After searching the web for our tour in Uganda, My husband and I found eurougandasafaris.com. We found the whole experience of booking with EURO UGANDA SAFARIS was extremely responsive, polite and explained everything very well.
We were a little anxious about paying money upfront but I am glad we took the risk!! We have found Euro Uganda Safaris to be extremely dependable and trustworthy. We have never booked the previous trips using the web, as we all know there are some scams out there and will take your money but not deliver the bookings. We found the whole experience of booking with EURO UGANDA SAFARIS extremely responsive, polite and they explained everything very well. I have to say choosing Euro Uganda Safaris was the best decision ever.
The communication before the trip was extremely reliable and quick; to any email, I wrote I would get an answer within half an hour.
Glad to have John as a driver and guide. We loved him from the very instant he picked us from the airport. He was very knowledgeable, full of excitement and information. He went above and beyond his call of duty to ensure we had the best experience possible in Uganda. John took us to Murchison Falls NP were he was very activie working with other guides on phones as a result we got to hang out with 12 lions and lion cubs for an hour plus, watching them as they ate and played. This was only one of many sightings during the day Itinerary since lions are not easy to find. Musa and John were very friendly and excellent guides throughout Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and quen Elizabeth Nationa Park respectively.
Thank you Euro Uganda Safaris for our great trip in Uganda and we will be telling our friends about your website and your honesty and help.
Everything they promised us was delivered.

We had a beautiful day in the Murchison Falls with Euro Uganda Safaris
I was well informed about our day in the park. We were picked up right in time and everything was organised as promised. It did get a little tight in our bus since an extra guide was coming with us and later on the game ranger had to get in the bus too.
Next time I would not visit the park with the 29 seater which was the bus that we were travelling around with in Uganda. The people who were sitting in the middle could not see very well. Our windows were also blinded a little bit. When lions were spotted we did not have the chance to see it because our bus could not go off road. I would suggest that groups can be informed by this and would get a suggestion to arrange other transport for this day.
But nevertheless, we had a great day. The best of the tour was the hiking to the falls which was stunning.
