Friendly, honest and one of the best in Uganda
5/5

Travelled with Silas and Village of Lakes Safaris to Uganda for leisure and had an amazing time. We also crossed the border to Rwanda for some tours. A very accommodating company. Village of Lakes Safaris secured a gorilla tracking permit for me with less than 2 weeks notice! and on top of that organised my accommodation and travel itinerary. I was very impressed considering my last minute travel plans.

Silas was my guide. He was very friendly and patient at all times. Very well organised, very professional, very punctual ( I thought I was punctual!) with daily briefings & de-brief. Paid attention to detail. I really appreciated the transparency and honesty of Silas and his company.

Some of the highlights of my trip included gorilla tracking in Bwindi (Uganda), boat rides on Bunyonyi lake (Uganda) and the islands where the wakanda films were based on. We then crossed the border into Rwanda where we did Akagera safari park and Canopy walking and trekking in Nyungwe National Park. I took many amazing pictures and made many amazing memories.

Silas is very knowledgeable about the country, regions and towns we visited, including the history.

The design of the trip was done uniquely for me. My own requirements were always catered to. I felt comfortable saying what I liked and disliked. You can request a certain trips and stops - I was able to visit local communities and villages, tosee how people live, eat out locally etc.

If travelling to Uganda, I recommend Village of Lakes Safaris tours!

My tour was planned as budget tour but Village of lakes safaris made our tour like a luxury tour!
Always try to meet our needs and request and took care of us like a family!
All different Accommodation/ cottage we stayed was well maintained and clean, had an amazing view!
We wanted to try local food and all restaurants he took us was very good! Now I am fun of Ugandan food.
Safari tour was exceptional! We saw different animals everyday and he took amazing pictures for us too.
I will never forget this trip and Uganda is now one of my favorite country among 70 countries I traveled so far, thanks to Village of Lakes and safaris!

The 3 days 2 nights tour was worth every penny... we enjoyed every moment, as first timers our guide convinced us to try out zipline

5/5

We had fun, tour operator convinced us to try some scary shit like the zip line , ended up enjoying it . He was patient and we ‘d have missed out on some of our planned activities but he helped manage all of it and we got all we paid for

9 days Gorillas, Chimpanzee and amazing wildlife
5/5

Amazing, budget friendly, safari in Uganda with such an amazing guide Silas of Village of Lakes Safaris . From our first email with the Silas who helped us arrange all this with out getting tired even with the many changes in the itinerary since we weren't sure of the company due to no review we took the chance to be the first clients on this platform, until the completion of the tour, all our expectations were exceeded. My wife & I have been to over 17 countries & Silas was one of the best guides we have met. We strongly recommend Village of Lakes Safaris and we assure you that you won’t regret booking with !!
