5 Days Uganda Gorilla, Chimpanzee and Wildlife Safari
5/5

This was my fourth trip to Africa, but first trip to Uganda. Using Laba expeditions for our trip proved to be an excellent decision. Alonso , our guide, was knowledgeable, courteous, helpful, and a pleasure throughout the safari. The three lodges we visited (all recommendations from Laba) all exceed our expectations. We visited the top attractions (gorillas and Queen Elizabeth National Park), but also some smaller, but beautiful areas of Uganda. It was a nice slice of Uganda - a beautiful country with warm, welcoming people. My only regret is that we did not stay longer.

It was very interesting and interesting
5/5

We recently completed a customized tour of Uganda with a volcano hike in Rwanda all arranged by Laba Africa . Our guide, Moses, did an amazing job of finding interesting wildlife for us to see, arranging boat trips, meals, lodging and answering all of our many questions about the wildlife, culture, geography, plants, foods etc of Uganda. Possibly the most amazing thing was to watch him navigate the roads - he was a true expert in driving up and down mountains on bumpy unimproved mud roads and through the most crowded congested roads in Kampala that I have ever experienced. I remember Thanking God that he was driving over and over!! The lodgings provided ranged from adequate to downright luxurious. One tip - take some form of noise reducers - they don't insulate any walls here so you hear everything anyone does in the bathroom clearly and the nearby villages play music or preachers over loudspeakers well into the night.

Wow, wow, wow!!!
5/5

Wow, wow, wow!!! I don't even know where to start. This trip, with Laba Africa Expeditions, was amazing! First off, the company itself: When booking these types of tours from the US, most will ask that you wire transfer the money or pay the credit card service fee. I got super nervous on this part. After spending 5 days with this company- I now can safely tell people, don't worry! They are a very reputable company. Level of service: Our driver, Moses, was great! He picked us up right from the airport, had a sign with our name, and took care of us the entire trip. He was educated, spoke English well, was funny and was there to help us with whatever we needed. Vehicle: We had an older van type of car but we ended up loving it! The back seat was spacious and I even was able to jump in the third row seat and lay down for a bit if I wanted to. The top lifted off for us to see all of the great animals while driving. Our driver cleaned it every night for us and made sure we had fresh water each day. Animals: we went in January and we saw so many animals. We did the safari portion, the chimps and the gorillas and all were amazing. I would do the exact same trip again anytime!
Tipping: Don't forget to tip about $20 (more if you want) per day per person. We gave him the tip at the very end and gave him US dollars. We made sure before leaving the US the bills were newer as they don't accept older bills in Uganda

5 day culture and wildlife!! Journey best ever!!
5/5

We booked 5 day culture and wildlife Safari from Safari booking. The best part is the night camp that was amazing camp in my life. It feels like threatening, amazing, best experience with flora and fauna. At camp we sing songs to reduce our threat. Actually there is no terror but I don't know why I feel so threatening!!!! Haha!! But amazing camp.

The best way to see Uganda!
5/5

A wonderful 9 day safari, across part of Uganda! Travelling in a luxurious safari vehicle is a wonderful way to see so much of this stunning country including its varied wildlife and incredible countryside!
Sam tailored our safari perfectly to suit our needs, and Alonso our guide was very willing to do everything he could do to make sure we could see everything we wanted to! This included the incredible Ishasha tree climbing lions, gorillas and chimpanzees! Thank you so much, for a wonderful time!

Wonderful experience!!!
5/5

Our experience with labaafrica was excepcional.
We did 3 days gorilla safari what included 2 night in beautiful budget lodges in Bwindi National park, and the Gorilla permits were include, they got it for us.
We choose to add lake Bunyonyi, one of the most beautiful lakes in Africa (and it really is) at no extra cost. We slept in the lake and it was the best and so beautiful views in Africa.
We spent 2 nights on the tour with all the meals include and with our guide Moses who was so friendly and helpful with us.
Thank you very much for everything guys!
Highly recommend!
