Oustanding
I just finished my 8 days Uganda tour. Since the first time that I contacted them they were patient and helpful. Once I arrive in Uganda we start with the tour and everything was perfect. I saw everything that I wanted to see, the service was great, the lodges were great, everything was amazing, boat safaris, game drives, chimps and gorilla trekking. I’m so happy for this trip and for choosing this company. Also I’m very happy with my guide Chris. Nothing to complain, he showed me everything that I asked, and he was all the time checking with me if I was good with the tour. Kind and attentive. I truly recommend this company and Chris as a guide. 10 out of 10!!

Memories of Uganda
Our experience with Wild Uganda was incredible and exceeded all our expectations. From the very first day, everything was extremely well organized, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of the trip.
We would especially like to highlight our guide, George, who was absolutely excellent and played a key role in making this experience so memorable. He was always attentive to our needs, took care of every detail, and was ready to help us at all times. His experience and knowledge made the safaris truly spectacular, and thanks to him, we were able to see an amazing variety of wildlife. On top of that, his kindness, patience, and positive attitude made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire journey. Without a doubt, having George as our guide made our trip even more special.
The accommodations were also excellent, with outstanding service, beautiful surroundings, and incredible views.
We are leaving Uganda with unforgettable memories. The entire experience exceeded our expectations, and we would recommend Wild Uganda 100%. We would definitely choose them again and would be more than happy to explore Uganda once again with George as our guide.

Honestly, the best
Cant recommend enough. Firstly, Uganda is unreal. It was the perfect safari trip where we saw the big five, but also had loads of major bucket list tickets on top like chimp, rhino and gorilla trekking.
It wasnt your typical 5 day game drive. We also got to do river safari tours down the Nile where we got up close to hippos. Walking safaris where we went up close to rhinos and giraffes. And then the main event of trekking through the rainforest to see chimps and gorillas, which was unreal. There were loads of them, all playing on the floor.
Wild Uganda organised everything like clockwork. Super easy and really knowledgeable. Our guide Derick was the nicest guide and made the whole trip so fun and special for us. Took us on night game drives, found loads of animals and was super helpful. I’d ask for him personally if i was coming again. Great guy and really fun to travel with.
We just got back from Tanzania and this was way better. So much variety, instead of just being stuck in a truck. Really enjoyed and would definitely recommend to others.

Probably the best Safari we have ever done and most of that was down to Derrick our driver!
It’s honestly difficult to put into words just how amazing our trip to Uganda was, and a huge part of that is down to our incredible driver and guide, Derrick.
From the very first day, Derrick went above and beyond to make sure we had the most unforgettable experience possible. He wasn’t just our driver — he was our guide, wildlife expert, problem solver and, by the end of the trip, a friend.
We had some absolutely incredible wildlife encounters during our trip. We trekked to see mountain gorillas and chimpanzees, which were both completely unforgettable experiences. But one of the biggest highlights was when Derrick helped us find a leopard — something we were desperate to see! His knowledge, patience and determination made such a difference, and finding that leopard was a moment we’ll never forget.
There were also so many unexpected and magical moments that Derrick helped make possible. At Nile Safari Lodge, we somehow ended up having the entire hotel to ourselves, which made the experience feel incredibly special. Derrick also organised a private bush BBQ dinner right beside the River Nile, which was honestly one of the most amazing and memorable evenings of our entire trip.
And then there was the elephant… 🐘😂
While staying in Queen Elizabeth National Park, an elephant wandered over to the lodge and came down to drink from the swimming pool. We were so ridiculously excited that we literally jumped into the pool in our shorts to get closer and see him! 🤣 It was one of those completely surreal wildlife moments that you couldn’t plan if you tried.
What really stood out about Derrick was how much he genuinely cared about making our trip special. He listened to what we wanted to see, knew where to go, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and always seemed to be thinking one step ahead. He was also great company throughout the whole trip, and his calm, friendly personality made us feel completely comfortable and looked after.
We came to Uganda hoping for an incredible safari, but we left with memories that will stay with us for the rest of our lives.
If you are booking a Uganda trip, ask for Derrick. Seriously. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough. He made an already amazing country and itinerary into something truly unforgettable.
Thank you, Derrick, for an incredible trip and for helping us create memories we’ll be talking about for years! 🇺🇬❤️🐘🦍🐆

Amazing
Our experience with Wild Uganda was absolutely incredible! The wildlife sightings were simply out of this world. We saw so many amazing animals in the wild and had experiences that we will never forget.
A huge part of what made the trip so special was Andrew, our guide. He was honestly the best guide I have ever had! His knowledge, experience, and incredible ability to spot animals made every game drive an unforgettable experience. On top of that, he was extremely friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what he does.
If you want to experience Uganda at its best, I can highly recommend Wild Uganda. And if you’re lucky enough to have Andrew as your guide, you’re in for something truly special. I would absolutely travel with them again! 🦍

Excellent tour operator that puts a lot of effort in their tours.
The whole experience was so amazing, our tour guide Andrew was beyond amazing he really tries every day to give us the best experience ever. He was very polite and all our wishes were heard. He knew a lot of Rangers and other people along the trip which was so helpful to always have so great sightings. We had so much fun with him and he was very professional! Also the people of the hotels told us that the company seems really ethically correct - I would definitely book this tour operator!

Amazing
We had an absolutely incredible trip with Wild Uganda, traveling from Uganda all the way to Rwanda. The whole experience was amazing and we got to see and experience so many unforgettable things – from gorilla and chimpanzee tracking to safaris, Golden Monkey tracking, the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and a Shoebill Safari in the Mabamba Swamp.
But what really made the trip special for us was our guide Andrew. He was absolutely fantastic! From the very first day, we felt completely comfortable with him. Andrew was extremely knowledgeable, always friendly and in a great mood, and he really went the extra mile to make sure we had the best possible experience.
He always knew where to go and what to look out for, whether we were searching for gorillas, chimpanzees, lions or the Shoebill. He was incredibly patient and never got tired of answering all our questions. At the same time, he was funny, relaxed and made all the long drives and early mornings so much more enjoyable.
We were honestly sad when the trip was over. Andrew played a huge part in making this journey so unforgettable for us, and we couldn’t have wished for a better guide.
A huge thank you to Wild Uganda and especially to Andrew for an amazing adventure! We would absolutely recommend Wild Uganda and would happily travel with them again. And if you get the chance to have Andrew as your guide – you’re in for a great trip!
Unforgettable!
Choosing Wild Uganda for our trip through Uganda and Rwanda was honestly one of the best decisions we could have made. Our expectations were high, but they were exceeded in every possible way.
From the organization and equipment to the incredible wildlife sightings, the flexibility, the experiences and the attention to detail, everything was exceptionally well arranged. Every day brought something new and unforgettable, and we were able to experience East Africa in a truly special way.
But there is one thing we would especially like to highlight: the people behind the experience.
We had the incredible pleasure of travelling with our guide Andrew, and if you are lucky enough to have him as your guide, you have absolutely hit the jackpot! Andrew is extremely knowledgeable, highly experienced and incredibly well connected with the rangers and people in the field. He knows the best spots, understands animal behaviour and somehow always seems to know where the magic is about to happen. Thanks to his incredible knowledge, experience and network, we were able to enjoy some truly extraordinary wildlife encounters that we will never forget.
But Andrew is so much more than an outstanding guide. He was professional, attentive and incredibly flexible, always listening to what we wanted and going above and beyond to make every single day special. At the same time, there was never a shortage of laughter and good moments. Spending the days with him made the entire experience feel less like a guided tour and more like travelling with a friend who happens to know everything about the African wilderness. Every single day with Andrew was worth every penny.
If you are dreaming of an authentic, well-organized and unforgettable safari experience in Uganda and Rwanda, we can wholeheartedly recommend Wild Uganda. And if you happen to get Andrew as your guide, consider yourself incredibly lucky.
Thank you, Wild Uganda and Andrew, for an adventure we will carry with us forever.
We came for the wildlife, but we left with unforgettable memories, incredible stories and a true appreciation for Uganda and Rwanda.
Absolutely recommended. 10/10!

Tailored experience with knowledgeable guides and quality accommodations close to the parks
We went on a 13-day safari and trekking trip through Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania with Wild Uganda. Planning the trip was easy as Ernest was incredibly communicative and helpful when I needed guidance. The service provided by both guides (Andrew in Uganda and Rwanda and Octavian in Tanzania) was exceptional. We learned a lot about each country and felt safe and well taken care of by our guides.
The accommodations prioritized proximity to the parks, resulting in easier mornings, and shorter lines when entering the parks. Both guides were able to navigate park registration seamlessly and we were able to focus on the animals and nature around us. Both guides were knowledgeable about both wildlife and plant life!
The trip was a great value for the money we paid and we would rebook with Wild Uganda on our next E. Africa safari and trekking trip.

Breathtaking times with Wild Uganda!
Everything went perfectly from our first contact with Wild Uganda to the last. All communication was very clear, and every question I asked was answered within 24 hours. The itinerary they proposed was perfectly tailored to us, and adjusting it was no problem at all. We were given the option to upgrade our lodges, and the additional cost was very reasonable. Wild Uganda handled everything perfectly. Brian, our guide, made the trip unforgettable; he was always punctual, took care of everything for us, and is an expert at spotting wildlife. Definitely ask for Brian—he is absolutely outstanding.
