A thoughtful, generous, exciting, and truly ideal tour of beautiful western Uganda!
I would very happily tour again with Maleng Travel Uganda. Tony Ofungi, owner of Maleng, was recommended by my business partner who knows Tony personally. I consider myself very fortunate that I did not have to look further than Maleng to find an absolutely top-notch tour operator who was patiently willing to answer many questions and propose numerous attractive and thoughtful itineraries to help me think about how I wanted to tour western Uganda during what was my first time in Africa. My girlfriend and I booked a 9-day tour with Maleng through Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and Kibale National Park, which included a range of lodging accommodations and passes to track mountain gorillas (Bwindi) and chimps (Kibale). Tony took care of all arrangements. We appreciated the thought Tony put into his lodging suggestions, and the fact that he provided a range of selections for us that spanned from high-cost to low-cost. I elected to sample accommodations spanning the range of costs and found them all to be excellent, safe-feeling, pleasant, and memorable choices. We were fortunate to have Sam Kalema as our driver and primary tour guide. Sam's indefatigably positive and charming personality, and his deep knowledge of the areas, people, and wildlife on our tour helped the tour feel satisfyingly personal, engaging, and all the more memorable. In my opinion, employing Sam Kalema reflects great judgement on the part of Tony Ofungi. There are so many more positive things that I could say in support of Maleng Travel, Tony, and Sam. Most importantly, I very highly recommend Maleng, Tony, and Sam for a wonderful, safe, and smooth tour of remarkable places you will never forget. Happy travels!

Maleng Travel provide a stellar bespoke service!
Tony planned an itinerary based on my family's wishes and preferences. The tour was for a party of four and we travelled with Tony and a tour guide. Murchison Falls National Park was a true delight and the highlight of the trip was definitely the boat cruise on the River Nile aboard "The African Queen" no less, seeing elephants, giraffes, crocodiles and hippopotami in their natural habitat.
The icing on the cake was Tony placing an order at the 11th hour for a Birthday Cake to be made and presented to our sons at Chobe Safari Lodge, after dinner.
We found Maleng Tours knowledge and experience in the field invaluable when planning this trip at affordable rates and were very impressed with the results!

Goes above and beyond to meet the client's needs and establishes good and genuine relationships.
I was so satisfied with the support from when I first made contact. Tonight took the time on the phone yo understand what I wanted and it was great to co-design the trip together.
Communication including emails and transactions was easy amd seamless amd loved how I was introduced to the guide before the visit when they did a home visit.
Great care and loved that Toni sent a surprise gift with outer guide for the trip. It's the small things they do to make the client feel special.
Do give Maleng a try, you will absolutely love it

Very personalized planning and realisation
Maleng Travel have realized a very personalized and individualized journey for me. My trip was organized centrally for Uganda and Kenya. Maleng Travel also responded to all my short-term requests for amendments and adjustments while we were on tour.

Experienced tour operator, who has vast knowledge of the country and trade!
Tony provided sound advice and made all the bookings for a weekend getaway to Kalangala Islands. It was a great trip, to an unseen part of Uganda. The hotel he selected - Brovad, had great facilities. And overall, it was a very relaxing experience. I will definitely use his services for my next adventure in Uganda.

Outstanding, highly knowledgeable, respectful and pleasant
This was a beautiful once in a lifetime experience where we got to see God’s wildlife creation upfront and yet safely. It was so well done. We have recommended the tour to others already. The beautiful savannah grasslands were breath-taking from the lodge-view in the mountains. The tour guide was phenomenal! 10 stars!
Kudos to this company!
