Amazing Ugandan tour operator
We would totally recommend Azas for your travels in Uganda!!!
From the first moment we contacted Azas, we have had a great experience. Prisca answered all of our questions and made useful suggestions about how to tailor our 12 days trip in Uganda. She was very responsive both on Whatsapp and via e-mail (contact them right away on Whatsapp). Once we arrived in Uganda, we were welcomed at the airport and a day later our trip started. Our guide, Julius, was one of the most gentle and knowledgable guides we have ever met. He made sure that we travel in comfort (the car was always in good condition, water was provided throughout the trip) and safely (he drove carefully, he always locked the car). He also made sure we were on time for everything (e.g. our hikes, tours). He was also a great spotter, which made our game drives a wonder.
We did have a small miscommunication, but essentially everything was sorted out by the team and it did not impact our travels at all. We also requested smaller changes during our trip and all were accommodated. For example, we added an extra day trip at the end of our journey and we also came back one day earlier from our hike and Prisca took care of all the organization.

Best Safari Tour in Uganda
From the planning to execution, this experience was tailored to our needs and delivered as promised. We did 6 days safari packed with views, animal encounters and beauty of Uganda. Simon and his team took care of all permits for Gorilla and Chimp Trekkings. All the accommodations were super nice and obviously prebooked. Act and Our Guide and driver Julius - top of the top!
I highly recommend Azas Safaris for your Uganda Trip!

Best experience with the high quality service!
This was one of the best experiences in my life. From the beggining - professional customer service and tailor made trip - thank you Simon! Quick response to all of our questions. I recommend to use Wise as a payment.
Hotel acomodations with amazing food and wifi in the common areas.
Absolutely amazing guide Julius (we love you and hope to see you again!) - thanks to him we saw leopard ️ and many many other animals.
Our aim was to see gorillas and to be honest I was really afraid I cannot do it (very poor physical condition), but team chose the best trail to see it and we spot first gorillas in 20 mins after we started!
I highly recommend this company as they proved that they can create unforgetable memories with the best quality of service!

Very good touroperator, we had a great trip with Azas safaris
While visiting Uganda for work we planned a short 3-day safari trip with Azas Safari's. Before booking we had compared several tour operators, but Azas promised to deliver the best value for money. Communication went smooth via whatsapp and the communication the contract and handling of the payment gave us an assuring feeling.
We had an amazing trip, with Christopher as the best guide! Everything was well arranged, we loved the car we travelled with. Christopher explained so much about the wildlife, specific animals, the area we were travelling, and about Uganda. He friendly and politely helped us where possible and is a very good driver. What we really appreciated is that Christopher was very flexible in making a few changes in the plan of the trip while travelling, to ensure there would be sufficient time for us to explore everything.

An Amazing Experience with Eastern Africa’s Best Operator
Azas Safaris Uganda are incredibly good at what they do ! They looked after my full
Itinerary from Uganda, Rwanda to Tanzania including Chimpanzee and Gorilla Treks , Game Drives , local tours, hotels , internal flights , guides and driver and meals.
I did lots of price comparisons and Azas was by far the best value . All the hotels were excellent and the tours, Treks and experiences they booked for me were very well planned and excellent choices .
Christopher my guide and driver for my 3 week trip was fantastic!!… he was very knowledgeable about the local area and culture , friendly and very professional. He went way above and beyond my expectations. I can’t thank Azas Safaris Uganda and Christopher enough for creating me an experience of a lifetime I’ll never forget ,
I would highly recommend Azas Safaris Uganda

Can only recommend Azas Safaris!
We visited Uganda in September 2022 as part of our honeymoon trip through Azas Safaris. The tour was for 5 days, where we visited Bwindi, Bunyonyi and Jinja. The whole experience with the team was brilliant from start to finish.
From the first inquiry, we were impressed with the detail included in the itinerary and the email communication. Prisca was responsive, attentive, and created a personalised trip for us (even changing it easily upon request). Her enthusiasm was great, and we really felt like we received a personal service.
Our guide Julius was fantastic, highly professional, knowledgeable and most importantly very friendly. He drove us from point A to B every day, often on long distances, and difficult roads but we always felt safe and in good hands. He was also great company when we weren't driving. We never worried about anything, there was always water in the 4X4, and he was able to give us a good overview of Uganda and the people. All in all, we would recommend Julius with no hesitation whatsoever.
We did quite a lot of research before booking, and found that Azas Safaris were competitive for pricing. Once there, we found that the value for money was excellent, and the accommodation was very good as well. The activities that we did (Gorilla Trekking, Bunyonyi Lake, Water Rafting in Jinga, Bungee Jumping,...) were also very good value and very safe.
Overall, we can only recommend Azas Safaris to anyone looking to visit Uganda with a professional and reliable tour operator. Thank you Prisca and Julius, we left your wonderful country with memories for life !!!

Uganda land of the primates.
Azas Safaris. The trip was well planned with excellent service and at a great price.
Uganda is a fantastic country full of surprises. We traveled primarily to see primates, but were surprised at how much more this beautiful country has to offer from stunning scenery to beautiful lakes, we managed to see much more than we ever imagined on this well planned tour with Azas Safaris.
Chris our guide was very professional and knowledgeably, he always had a best interests at heart and went that extra mile to ensure we had a great time.
Our tour included Gorilla, Chimpanzee, and Golden monkey trekking, Rhino trekking, several game drives in 3 different national parks all of which were amazing and Chris did everything he could to make sure we got to see lots of different animals, we never felt rushed.
We visited local villages, where we were made to feel very welcome, we even tried the local drink (fermented porrage) I'll leave it up to you to try, and make your own mind up. We also visited a local school and spoke with the children in class.
The accommodation was all of a decent standard and the food served was plentiful.
All in all i would definitely recommend Azas-safaris not only for its friendly and professional staff but also for the fantastic tour it put together for us.
Keep up the good work

They did a really great job making an amazing tour for me.
Prisca was always very responsive every time I messaged him with a question before and during the trip. He was also able to adapt the trip really well when two others on my tour had to cancel at the last minute.
Christopher my driver and tour guide was an excellent driver and great at solving any problems around fitting activities in and working around what I wanted to prioritise.
The trip was also good value. The gorilla and chimpanzee permits are locked in prices so there’s not much they can do about that but everything else seemed very reasonable.
I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, but I would recommend more time at lake Bunyonyi. Also, the Chimpanzee trekking was a little disappointing as the chimps were up in the trees for the entire hour. Not much you can do about that though, and some other people said that the chimps had spent a lot more time on the ground when they were there. There might be other good (and cheaper) places to try chimp trekking. Just ask Prisca, he’s good at accommodating your needs!
All in all, I can recommend this tour and Christopher to anyone!

Great value with an awesome Team
Even though I contacted Azas on a very short notice, they managed to organize me an awesome tour leaving a few days later.
I had a great time with a very good value for money.
Compared to an other tour I did was this more value for less money.
Al the accommodations were well selected and the tour itinerary was planed very good (not too much to get overwhelmed).
I would definitely do it again and recommend Azas to everyone who wants to do a safari.
Webale Nyo (thank you very much) for the great time.
