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! 🦍

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! 🇺🇬❤️🐘🦍🐆

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.

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.

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!!

Professional and welcoming
This summer we spent 15 days in Uganda. It was a wonderful experience, which brought us into contact not only with nature but also with the culture and traditions of the people. We felt welcomed and always looked after in the best possible way by our tour operator and our fantastic guide, Brian, who never let us miss a thing. We saw many more animals than we expected, and the experience with the chimpanzees and gorillas was thrilling given the close proximity we were able to observe them. The lodges were always adequate and welcoming, some of which were truly beautiful. Kidepo National Park was wonderful, a little out of the way, but it gave us incredible experiences. I absolutely recommend a trip to Uganda, and I highly recommend Wild Uganda!

Excellent choice
Our experience in Uganda with Wild Uganda couldn’t have been better! We’ve already recommended to all our friends.
The organization, reliability and quality-price rate is very good, but the thing that really made the difference was our guide and rider George, now also our friend!!! This amazing travel wouldn’t have been the same without him! He has taken care of us 24/7, making sure we were comfortable and happy at all times. He’s a well-educated, polite and intelligent man with a true love for animals. We’ve enjoyed all the conversations with him. We learned about the country, its people, its culture and the wildlife, and we also had lots of fun!!
THANK YOU GEORGE FOR TURNING AN AMAZING TRIP INTO ONE OF THE BEST MEMORIES OF OR LIFE.
(And thank you for the birthday cake <3)

Excelent
Our experience with Wild Uganda was fantastic. We visited the entire country, participating in various wildlife activities. Thanks to our guide, George, the best travel companion, driver, and guide we could have asked for. He helped us with everything we asked, taught us so much about the country's culture, animals, and everything else about Uganda. He is an extremely polite and intelligent person, always smiling and willing to help us with anything. He even got a birthday cake for my girlfriend on the last day of the trip! Thank you so much, George. We appreciate everything you did for us; you'll always be in our hearts. Your family in Mallorca already misses you.

An Amazing African Adventure
An Amazing African Adventure
Our 10-day holiday in Uganda and Rwanda was an overall extraordinary experience. The trip offered an ideal combination of exciting safari drives, beautiful scenery, fascinating boat trips, and unforgettable encounters with chimpanzees and mountain gorillas.
Wild Uganda arranged everything exceptionally well. Ernest put together a thoughtful and well-balanced itinerary, ensuring that we experienced the highlights of both countries without ever feeling rushed. Murchison Falls, the Nile cruise, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and the Kazinga Channel each provided wonderful and varied wildlife experiences. Seeing the Big Five was a particular highlight, but the elephants, hippos, buffaloes, crocodiles, and countless birds made every excursion memorable.
The chimpanzee and gorilla treks were undoubtedly among the most meaningful experiences of our lives. Exploring Volcanoes National Park and meeting the gorillas in their natural habitat was a privilege we will never forget.
Our guide, Shafik Topkins, played a major role in making the journey so enjoyable. He was extremely knowledgeable, dependable, considerate, and patient. His calm nature and careful attention to detail allowed us to relax and fully appreciate every moment.
We are very grateful to Ernest, Shafik, and the entire Wild Uganda team for an outstanding holiday. We would gladly recommend their services to anyone looking for a well-organised safari and primate adventure in Uganda and Rwanda.
