Very nice 5-day safari
4/5

DAV responds very quickly and gives you all the information through Whatsapp. The safari was quickly organised. Nice pick-up service. Tour guide drove safe, even though the traffic could be chaotic. Nice activities, which we could adjust during the trip if we liked. We've seen (almost) all the animals we wished to see! The lodges were beautiful, with very nice staff.

The only thing was that through the Whatsapp communication there were some repeated mistakes. However, when asked for clarification, they were quickly recoverd.

We would recommend DAV safari to family and friends!

Organised
4/5

I had Godfrey as our guide.
He was organised and knowledgable.
Accomodations given were good. Van had aircon, was pretty new.

Just note to bring a small fan as the weather in Uganda is hot and there are no fans in the accomodations provided.

General tip, always check how long your safari time would be, if it's shorten, do not hesitate to question and they will make it right.

I did a 3 day's gorilla trekking at bwindi forest. Last min added a safari trip to lake mburo.

Amazing
5/5

We had the best time during our trip. We booked the “10 days best of Uganda” tour and really enjoyed every part of it!
Our guide, Joyous, was amazing. Always with a smile and with great conversations and teaching us about his amazing country and culture.
Regarding the tour, everything was well organized, everything went smoothly and we never had to worry about anything, all the experiences were amazing and everything occurred as agreed. We would highly recommend visiting Uganda, and Dav Safaris is amazing choice for planning the trip.

Exceeded expectations
5/5

I booked a 5-Day Gorilla and Chimpanzee Trekking Tour with Dav Safaris and it was absolutely amazing. From the start, Reagan was very helpful with organizing my itinerary and answering all my questions. The whole tour was arranged to my needs and I was happily surprised that I got a "private" tour, since I was the only person departing that day. I even got welcomed at the airport by Reagan himself, his daughter and Ben, my guide, who was also extremely helpful and kind to me the whole five days. Because I'm a woman travelling alone, it can be concerning to go on the road that much time with a man you don't know, but Ben always made me feel safe and comfortable, and he was always trying to improve my experience by widening my knowledge about Uganda, it's wildlife and culture, and making sure I was having the time of my life.

As for the trekking experiences, they were both so amazing and fulfilling, and I was lucky enough (also thanks to Ben) that neither of them were as long as I had expected. Other highlights of the trip were the monkey trekk and community tour, which I enjoyed greatly (guided by a local named Patrick), and the visit to Lake Buyonyi.

Regarding the lodges, I stayed in three different ones, all of them absolutely stunning and filled with the nicest people. The food was great at all times, whether we ate at the lodges, packed lunches, or on the road. The vehicle was comfortable, which was great because we had many driving hours a day.

In sum, I'm happy I got to live this experience without any disturbances or complaints. I 100% recommend Dav Safaris.

AMAZING and trustworthy. The best tour operator there is.
5/5

This was an AMAZING experience. The process of arranging the tour went super smoothly and was clear. They had great accommodation choices and even chose the best spots were you stop for breaks and lunch. They definitely pay attention to details and tailor the experience in such a way that you feel super comfortable, safe, while you enjoy at the maximum. Thank you to Rigan for arranging everything and being so kind. Also special thanks to our guide Benjamin!!!! He is an amazing guide, very knowledgeable, ready to help, reliable, fun, and took great care of us! I learned so much during this trip and had so much fun as well! It was definitely a unique vacation experience :) thank you!!!

Beautiful experience in Uganda
5/5

We spent 1 week in Uganda and it was amazing. We did 3 trekking: chimpanzees, gorillas and golden monkeys. Our guide, Julius, has been perfect from the beginning to the very end, always kind and helpful. We never felt unsafe. His knowledge about Uganda and the parks’ staffs made everything running smoothly and our gorilla’s family was just amazing.
We highly recommend having a trip with him

Fantastic Experience
5/5

I recently travelled to Uganda with Dav Safaris’s with my two older teenage children. Our guide Julius was amazing. From the moment he picked us up he was well organized and made sure we were where we needed to be. He was very knowledgeable about Uganda. Julius had a very good rapport and relationship with the people working at the chimp and gorilla trekking locations and we ended up with amazing guides and an awesome gorilla family to spend time with, I think thanks to Julius’s relationship with the experience providers.
I highly recommend Dav Safaris and Julius especially.

A fantastic trip
5/5

A grand adventure we had for 19 days with Julius. We chose to do a mid price accommodation tour that involved over 7 parks and circumnavigating Uganda. All accommodations were beautiful and safe. The hosts were gracious and very helpful. I cannot speak highly enough of Julius. He was kind, very knowledgeable and incredibly patient. Despite some literal bumps in the road he was always calm and willing to make adjustments, a great representative of the company. We had a fantastic time, some great laughs and even better memories. Thank you DAV
