LULU SAFARIS-Amazing
LULU SAFARI - Amazing
Uganda, what an amazing place. In our 12 day excursion with Lulu Safaris we saw all the major attractions including gorillas, chimp, lions, many elephants, giraffes, antelopes of numerous species and much more. Thoroughly impressed by the professionalism of the Ugandan Wildlife Authority and how they protect native animals from poaching and control tourist interaction so animals can thrive and increase in number.
Apart from animals we were shown the magnificence of Murchison Falls, the mighty Nile and the numerous lakes with abundant bird life and hippos.
Brian our Lulu driver for our 2 person tour was attentive to our needs and spared no energy to make sure we saw it all.
Uganda is a poor country and driving its roads is not for the faint hearted. The very brave take on a self drive adventure. Our guide/driver Brian knows how it works and although erratic by Australian road rules… we always got to the destination.
Accommodation provided was all very good. Staff eager to please and would attempt to fix issues if not quite right.
Overall an amazing experience.

Unforgettable 10 Day Safari in Uganda with Lulu Safari
Excellent organization, an outstanding guide, and a safe, unforgettable experience from start to finish.
I had an incredible 10-day safari in Uganda with Lulu Safari. From the very beginning, everything was perfectly coordinated. They answered all my questions promptly (we mainly communicated via WhatsApp), and the entire trip was very well organized.
My guide, Marc, truly made the experience exceptional. He went above and beyond to help me see as many animals as possible and ensured I had the best possible experience every day. He was not only a great guide and driver (very important considering how the drive in Uganda) , but also a wonderful travel companion.
The accommodations and activities were excellent, and I always felt safe, which was especially important since I was traveling alone.
I gave the agency and the trip 15 out of 10 points. It exceeded all my expectations. I highly recommend them without hesitation.

Exceptional service and an unforgettable safari with Simon.
I recently completed a 7 day safari in Uganda with Lulu Safaris, covering Murchison Falls National Park and chimpanzee tracking, and I can confidently say it was one of the most memorable trips of my life.
The real highlight of this journey was our guide, Simon Muwanguzi Peter.
Simon was exceptional in every possible way professional, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about Uganda’s wildlife and people. From the powerful Murchison Falls to the incredible chimpanzee tracking experience , he made every moment meaningful. His deep understanding of conservation, local communities, and animal behavior added so much value beyond just “seeing” the sights.
Safari in Uganda is not always easy very early mornings, long drives, and the famous “African massage” on bumpy roads 😄 but Simon handled everything with calmness and positivity. No matter the delays or challenges, he remained supportive, flexible, and always focused on making the experience perfect.
What stood out most was his kindness and authenticity. You can truly feel that he loves what he does, and he cares deeply about both his clients and his country. His connection with local communities and conservation efforts is inspiring.
Uganda itself is breathtaking raw, wild, and beautiful but having a guide like Simon is what transforms a good trip into an unforgettable one.
If you’re considering Uganda, I highly recommend Lulu Safaris and if possible, ask for Simon. You won’t regret it.
Thank you again for an incredible experience. Uganda will always have a special place in my heart.

Amazing trip!
After our 10 day trip that has been planned by Lulu, I can confidently say that these people know what they're doing. Our guide Brian always ensured that we were safe, comfortable and entertained. As a photographer and videographer he always ensured that we took the time to capture the moment until satisfied. Also the network of these guides is amazing, they will always have someone to call for whatever need arises. This was a trip of my lifetime.

Amazing experience in Uganda with Lulu!
Our experience with Lulu was wonderful. My wife and I took a 15-day trip across the country, and it was an incredible experience. Elvis answered all our questions before the trip and was very helpful (although a confirmation of payment receipt would have been appreciated for added peace of mind).
Our guides, Derrick and Victor, were just the best! Derrick is a very experienced driver, and we felt very relaxed in the car with him throughout the entire trip. Furthermore, they both have extensive knowledge of the country and its amazing biodiversity, so we learned a lot from them. They are very friendly and welcoming people who made us feel right at home.
Choosing Lulu for this amazing trip was absolutely the right decision, and we would recommend this agency without hesitation!

Professional and responsive
This was one of the best tour companies I have worked with, and I have travelled to over 70 countries. When Ebola caused me to need to change my itinerary at the last minute due to complications with other countries I needed to travel to, Lulu safaris worked with me to find an alternative that would work and adjusted with patience and kindness. My tour guide Audence for the 5 days I spent in Rwanda was outstanding - definitely world class! Audence is a treasure! The entire visit was flawless, thanks to him and his foresight, double checking and meticulous planning. We enjoyed many delightful conversations admiring the long drives, and he always ensured I was comfortable and answered my many questions. If you are lucky enough to have Audence as your driver/guide, you are in for a treat!

Unforgettable trip
Lulu Safaris gave us the opportunity to discover Uganda through a well-planned and complete itinerary that allowed us to experience the country's nature, its wonderful people, and its rich culture.
We were incredibly lucky to have Audence as our guide. He made this journey even more special. He is an outstanding driver, a fun travel companion, and a wonderful storyteller who shared with us not only the history and culture of Uganda, but also his extensive knowledge of the national parks and their incredible wildlife.
Throughout the trip, he was always attentive to our requests and needs, making sure we felt comfortable and well looked after. He also handled every unexpected situation along the way with confidence, professionalism, and calm, which made us feel safe at all times.
Uganda is an extraordinary destination, Lulu Safaris is the perfect company to experience it with, and Audence is, without a doubt, the best guide we could have asked for. We couldn't recommend them more highly.

An Unforgettable Adventure in the "Pearl of Africa" – 10/10!
Uganda was, without a doubt, one of the most incredible trips of my lifetime! I went with not so high expectations, but the reality was completely different. Expect true off-road with the car. I absolutely loved every single moment of this trip.
What made it special:
The Wildlife Encounters: Trekking to see the mountain gorillas in Bwindi and the chimpanzees in Kibale was a deeply emotional, bucket-list experience that I will never forget, sitting 1m away from the silverback is something awesome. Trekking near giraffes and zebras is also something irepetable.
Great Landscapes and wildlife: The scenery is incredibly diverse, changing from the powerful Murchison Falls and classic savannas to the stunning, serene crater lakes like Lake Bunyonyi. Great parks, we loved Queen Elizabeth most because here we have seen all the big5 there in less than 2 hours, we were lucky for sure.
Authentic Safaris: Boat cruises on the Kazinga Channel and the Nile offered spectacular views of elephants, hippos, crocodiles, and unique birds without the heavy crowds of other destinations. We have seen hundreds of hippos, spectaculary big and dangerous wild animals.
Food: If you are into trying new food, local food, nothing will harm you there, the taste it is just different with what we were used at home. I have eaten everyday some sort of local food, some of them tasty, some not my kind. However, you always have options for international cuisine, so rest assured.
Accomodation: we stayed in some really nice lodges along the way, very clean everywhere, with trained personell, good options for food and drink. Internet is not everywhere available inside the rooms, we bought some eSim with internet data and the issue was solved. Network covereage I would say it was in 95% along the way.
Security: Perhaps one of the big question marks before travelling. Well nothing went wrong, during the 11 days there we did not feel at any point to be unsafe, quite the contrary.
Bottom line:If you love raw nature, wildlife, and authentic adventure, Uganda is a must-visit. I came home with a full heart and a massive desire to go back. Highly, highly recommended!
And on top of these all was Sam, our guide, that was extremly well prepared, very nice and polite, well educated person. He was able to tell us all kind of stories about the country, kingdoms there, history, animals, birds, etc. Without a doubt he enhanced the quality a lot.
GO! GO! GO!
