Excellent once in a life time experience!!!
I had the most remarkable tour with Chris Sanyu and Native Africa tours! Not only was everything perfect, but I felt, in every instance, that Chris truly cared about the whole process and did his best to make this trip memorable. For a well-traveled individual, this definitely has become the most eye-opening, adventurous, and stunning journey of my life - something I will remember, draw upon, and cherish for many years to come. Chris was pre-emptive and always went the extra mile to make sure every aspect of the trip was memorable. He even altered the initial paid for plan and included side trips (bearing in mind he had to get me to the airport on time). You fee truly safe with his company and the food quality, hygiene is very good. The hotels organised were amazing. I would highly recommend contacting Native Africa tours in the first instance as you will not be disappointed! 5 stars and keep up the amazing work Chris! Cant wait to come back with the family and finish touring the rest if your amazing country! Thank you once again!

Excellent
It was our first time in Uganda and we wanted to travel free and day by day. We found Chris and we had a great time traveling through Uganda with him. He was an excellent guide and driver who took us step by step into an amazing trip.

Great 11 days trip
I had a great experience with Native tours. The trip was organized in an excellent way, all activities and tours were planned perfectly and everything was smooth. The selected hotels and lodges were also of a great quality. Our guide and driver Chris went above and beyond to make sure our Uganda trip was one to remember and he definitely succeeded! I would not hesitate to recommend Native if you plan to visit this beautiful country.

Beyond any expectations
I had a truly unforgettable experience with Native African Tours, and I can’t recommend them enough. From the very beginning, it was clear that this is a locally based company that genuinely cares about their clients. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and constant communication made me feel confident and supported throughout the entire process.
Despite giving them very short notice, they went above and beyond to arrange a wonderful trekking excursion to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. Getting gorilla permits on such short notice is no small feat, but they made it happen—and the result was a trip I’ll never forget.
Moses deserves special recognition—he managed all the logistics seamlessly and kept in close contact with me every step of the way, always making sure everything was in place and adapting to my needs with genuine care. And Chris, my guide, was simply outstanding. Warm, knowledgeable, and full of good energy—he made the trek not just smooth, but truly special. The lodges we stayed throughout the trip exceeded everything I had in mind: incredible views and the nicest and warmest service.
If you're planning a visit to Uganda, you can trust Native African Tours to arrange the best trip you can have. They’re passionate, reliable, and deeply committed to sharing the beauty of their country in the most authentic and meaningful way. And you will be supporting local businesses.
Thank you, Moses and Chris, for showing me a side of Uganda I’ll always carry with me.

Best tour agency
We had an unforgettable Rwanda-Uganda road trip thanks to this incredible tour agency! From the very first email, Moses was exceptionally helpful and patient. He guided us through the entire planning process, helping us choose the right accommodations, crafting a smooth and well-balanced route, and even securing our gorilla trekking permits. No matter what questions we had about Rwanda or Uganda, Moses was always there with clear, honest, and thoughtful answers. His support made the preparation completely stress-free.
Once on the road, we were lucky to be accompanied by Chris, our tour guide in Queen Elizabeth National Park. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the wildlife and landscapes of the region. Chris spotted animals we would have never noticed on our own and shared fascinating insights about the park’s ecosystems, making the experience both exciting and educational. His nwarm personality made us feel safe and well cared for throughout.
To top it all off, after the tour we even went for a drink together—Moses, Chris, and us, making the whole experience feel even more personal and memorable.
The entire journey, from Rwanda’s rolling green hills to Uganda’s breathtaking savannah, was seamless, well-coordinated, and full of unforgettable moments. We couldn’t have asked for a better team or a better adventure.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for a well-organized, personalized, and truly unique African tour.
6-day Wildlife Safari and Gorilla Trek
Native Africa did a great job setting up a trip for us after a conference in Kampala, Uganda. They were able to get us the gorilla permits and setup all the details to fit with our plan. Chris and her staff were helpful setting up the trip and David was a great driver and guide. We visited the Lake Mburo National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park for Gorilla trekking. I would book through them again in the future.
Thank You Native.

Experience of a life time.
Native Africa Tours handled all of our in-country arrangements while in Uganda from flights, transports, drivers, excursions and lodging. They did an amazing job including accommodating last minute add-ons. Chris was very knowledgeable about things to do and places to see. The whole outfit was very professional, yet personable. We appreciated learning about the local culture and customs, as well. We will certainly use Native Africa Tours again!

It's worth every penny!
We had the most remarkable tour with Chris Sanyu and Native Africa Tours. Not only everything was perfect, but we felt, in every instance, that the company and Chris truly cared about us, and did his level best to make this trip memorable. This definitely has become the most eye-opening, adventurous, and stunning journey of my life - something I will remember, draw upon, and cherish for many years to come. We were pleasantly surprised by the diversity of our trip: from Jinja Nile Water Rafting to Queen Elizabeth, from Chimpz Trekking to Gorilla Trekking, from trying local delicacies to milking a cowAhh! let me not forget the lodges that he prepared for us and all those un boring long drive to our next destination.! We just love everything about it.He's the best! And it's all worth it. I'll not lie, Uganda is the most expensive tour I have ever done, costly than Europe, and then I understood why. Can't wait to go back.
