Professional, accommodating and seamless
A 6 day Rwanda and Uganda itinerary, lead by our excellent guide and driver, Martin.
Everything was seamless and his intimate knowledge of each destination and activity allowed us to sit back and enjoy every aspect without having to consider any logistics.
Great sense of humor and he didn't use a map for the entire duration. He seemed to know everyone and that did us wonders when getting to the right spots for game drives and successful hikes for the chimps, gorillas and golden monkeys.
Would highly recommend the company to friends and family and especially Martin. We were a group of 3 and felt that everything was really well priced and professionally handled.

Amazing experience
Uganda is an awesome place. Everyone we met was super friendly. The tour itself was put together so well that everyday was another amazing experience.
Our guide Martin made his job look effortless. He was genuinely invested in making sure we had the best experience but we would barely notice the work he put in. Which made it feel extremely calm and relaxed.
We'd considered a self drive but Martin's experience getting us in the best spots with the wildlife, sorting permits so we flew past queues was some of the best money I've ever spent.
How invested Ugandans and Martin specifically are in their country and preserving the nature within it made our trip something we'll never forget.

Exceptional from start to finish
From start to finish, Wagatil were exceptional! After finding the estimated quote on safari tours, booking process was incredibly easy. Pretty was very responsive and easy to discuss the different aspects of their tour options.
Martin our guide for our private mid-range 6 day trip from Rwanda to Uganda (including gorillas, chimps, golden monkeys and game drives in Queen Elizabeth national park) was truly exceptional. His knowledge was second to none, he was able to ask any questions we had (even the random ones that had nothing to do with the itinerary) and did so will enthusiasm and a smile. He showed so much passion about all of the different species of wildlife we were tracking and also of his country, we learnt so much from him about both. Martin always went above and beyond for us, from the organisation of the excursions to ensure we had the best outcome he could provide, to running the scheduled tightly to ensure we didn’t miss out on something we would have wanted to see, and from his choices of accommodation which were always strides better than we had expected to be getting, to making stops when we needed at pharmacies, ATMs and food stores for snacks on long drives, he never once made us feel like we were being a pain. This is something we were truly appreciative of, having been on many tours with many guides, and this often not being the experience.
Overall, I can’t recommend Wagatil and specifically Martin enough. We had the trip of a lifetime and one we will never forget! We will be sharing the company’s details with anyone who wishes to come Uganda on a trip and hope to return ourselves soon!
