5/5

I really enjoyed my trip with Ibanga Expeditions. Able was very professional, friendly, and reliable.
Everything was on time and well planned. I felt safe and well taken care of throughout the whole journey. Highly recommended!

Where as we saw many animals, Gorillas were my number one priority. If you have never Gorillas, it's an experience you don't need to miss in your life

Services at Ibanga Apartments in Entebbe were amazing!
The apartment is really clean ,hast enough sunlight and there’s also a swimming pool and a very well equipped gym Thank you Able. Our time with you was short, we'll definitely come again

Unforgettable experience
5/5

I had an excellent travel experience with IbangaExpeditions! From the booking to the final drop-off, everything was so professional and well-organized.

Our driver/guide Able was knowledgeable, friendly, and truly made us feel safe. The vehicle was clean and comfortable, timekeeping was perfect, and the whole itinerary was beyond my expectations. We were able to see Gorillas in Bwindi, chimps in Kibale National Park and many other animals in Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls NP. Water falls were spectacular.

Their selection of lodges was extremely on point. We had a night at Ibanga Apartments in Entebbe before our flight back home. It showed us the true beauty of Uganda with the sound of Lake Victoria at night.

If you are looking for a reliable, honest, and exceptional tour company in Uganda, look no further. I highly recommend them and I will definitely travel with them again. Thank you Ibanga Expeditions for being our Uganda's eyes

Remarkable honeymoon
5/5

We had an incredible and unforgettable honeymoon experience with Ibanga Expeditions planning the Rwanda/Uganda portion. From the beginning, they really made an effort to make our trip special, and we appreciated the personal touches and care they put into our experience.

One of the absolute highlights was Chimp Nest. It was our favorite hotel of the entire trip and felt truly special and unique. The setting, atmosphere, and experience there were unforgettable. The wildlife throughout the trip was also remarkable — seeing chimpanzees, gorillas, golden monkeys, lions, hippos, buffalo, leopards, elephants and so many other animals in their natural environment was something we will never forget.

Our Muba and Abel worked hard to make sure we had a great experience and were able to see as much as possible. That said, travelers should be prepared for some very intense driving. The roads can be rough, long, and challenging, and some of the driving days were exhausting. We were also negatively surprised to be asked for additional money($450) for fuel during the trip, so I would recommend clarifying ahead of time exactly what is included in the quoted price and whether fuel is fully covered. Abel often brought up his business and how profitable/not profitable our trip was, which is good that he wants to provide for his family, but also distracted from the moment.

Overall, Ibanga helped create a truly memorable honeymoon, and the wildlife was the experience we hoped for, the service was truly exceptional. We are grateful for the memories and would especially recommend the experience to anyone looking for an adventurous, wildlife-focused trip through Uganda and Rwanda.

Amazing Experience and Great Service
5/5

If you’re trying to decide which operator to choose for exploring Uganda, I highly recommend Ibanga Expeditions! Able is incredibly helpful, kind, and very knowledgeable about the country. Everything ran smoothly, and whenever I needed anything, he was always there to assist.

The lodges were amazing, the car was very comfortable, and the food was excellent. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!

Every experience in the itinerary was top-notch, and everything was seamlessly coordinated.

Wonderful 12 day tour of Rwanda and Uganda
5/5

After a long process comparing operators I eventually settled on Ibanga due to Able's personality and enthusiasm and I was thrilled with this decision.

From pick up on day 1 he was a joyful character, always ensuring everything was going to plan and that I was looked after in everyway. All the activities throughout were exceptional including the gorillas, chimps, golden monkeys and both Queen Elizabeth and Murchinson falls national parks. The mid-range lodges were all extremely comfortable, especially those in Queen Elizabeth and in Kibale and the service from the staff in each, alongside the food prepared was to a very high standard.

Any needs along the way Able was always happy to accomodate and be flexible with our itinerary to ensure I got the best experience day in, day out. Even at the end of the tour he ensured I was looked after in my accommodation and that they would ensure I made it to my next destination ok and since finishing has been checking in on me to make sure my travels in East Africa are still going smoothly.

I would 100% recommend Ibanga and Able for a great valued, all encompassing tour with a wonderful human.

Able was very friendly, informative and always eager to please
4/5

We considered several operators and value for money with Ibanga was very competitive.
All in all we had a great 12-day trip, with a couple of minor irritations on advised times to travel between places compared with the actual.
Our mid range option lodges were all comfortable, to the point we would have liked to have more time to enjoy the facilities and just relax occasionally. (Note: my wife and I are at retirement age).
We did not expect the extra cost for the safari guides that apperaed at each park who expected a fee.
Summary - excellent and a lifelong dream to sit with gorillas achieved.

Exciting, immersive and accommodating tour of Uganda
5/5

I had an excellent trip with Ibanga Expeditions. They were consistently in contact from booking all the way through to my arrival.

Everything in the tour, from timings, accommodation and food was fantastic. Everything went super smoothly throughout, and any questions I had from local Ugandan life to wildlife facts were all answered with a lot of detail.

I'd 100% recommend Ibanga Expeditions, they really do show a true passion to giving you a once in a lifetime experience of Uganda's culture and incredible wildlife.
