9-days Safari in Uganda
4/5

Our guide and driver, Julius, gave us an outstanding experience in Uganda, doing everything possible to maximize our chances of seeing wildlife and making each moment of the journey worthwhile. We had nine days, supposedly during the wet season, and set out to see as much wildlife as possible in its natural environment. Remarkably, the rain always seemed to fall when we were indoors or safely in the van, as if perfectly timed for our itinerary. The animals were far from shy—apart from the elusive leopard—and we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the wild, bringing home unforgettable memories and stunning photographs.

Despite unexpected challenges with our vehicles—both suffering engine failures—Julius remained calm, resourceful, and fully committed to our safety and schedule. He handled every situation with professionalism and determination, ensuring that our trip continued as smoothly as possible. We had a great time with fantastic excursions, all perfectly organized, and we are truly grateful for Julius’s dedication and care throughout this incredible adventure.

Safari in Uganda
4/5

We booked a 9-day safari trip with Dav Safaris and managed to see four of the Big Five, as well as gorillas and chimpanzees. Julius, our guide, gave us the best experience possible and maximized our chances to see the wildlife. It was a great vacation, filled with breathtaking views and unforgettable nights under the African sky.

However, we faced significant issues with our vehicle: the first van had engine trouble and was replaced after the first day (a new van was driven from Entebbe to Queen Elizabeth National Park), only for us to discover the next day that the replacement had the same problem. To prevent the engine warning light from staying on, our guide was forced to turn off the A/C.

Additionally, communication with Reagan, the agency coordinator, lacked professionalism. He guaranteed us single rooms before departure but failed to mention that this accommodation was not always available. We would have appreciated being informed of this possibility in advance to manage our expectations.

Despite these logistical issues, thanks to Julius, we still had a memorable trip. We hope Dav Safaris will address these vehicle and communication gaps for future clients.

5/5

Booked a safari at Akagera and gorilla tracking in Bwindi with Reagan last year. Communication was easy via email/WhatsApp. Come March, arriving in Kigali, everything has been arranged and Benjamin (Aine), our guide, was fantastic. We felt safe and both safaris were truly enjoyable and memorable. This was our first time in subsaharan Africa and met only the nicest people during our brief visit.

Excellent Adveture
5/5

I want to thank Dav Safaris for the excellent tour you provided our family March 1 -11. Uganda is an amazing country to visit. Adison, our driver and guide, was a great guy to travel with: friendly, obliging, informed, a great spotter of wildlife, and a superb driver. We enjoyed seeing the diverse range of wildlife and visiting a range of community cooperatives and enterprises. Our accommodation and food were excellent. I encourage others to visit your wonderful country.

The trekking was perfectly organized, and our guide Benjamin was absolutely fantastic—professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. A huge highlight was seeing the Big Five, which made the whole trip even more unforgettable. I highly recommend this to everyone!

Amazing - gave us a trip better than we had dreamed!
5/5

They helped us with a late booking (our other tour operator lost his licence). All was efficient, low stress and easy. The trip was amazing. Get Isaac as your guide and have an amazing time. Excellent value for money with a few extras that made it even better. Saw at least 50 Golden Monkeys, 15 Gorillas including a Silver Back, mums and babies and lots of other animals, even toured around an island on Bonyonyi in a dugout canoe. All went better than hoped. Remember Isaac - great englizh, very knowledgable and he cared that we were happy and did everything to make that happen.
