Great private tour
I had a very good experience with Wild Uganda overall. Communication before the tour was fast and smooth, which made planning easy and stress-free. The tour itself was also very flexible and could be easily adapted to our personal needs and preferences, making the experience even more enjoyable.
The safari vehicle was comfortable and in great condition, and our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the trip enjoyable from start to finish. Gorilla trekking and seeing the tree-climbing lions were definitely the highlights of the safari.
This was my fifth safari trip in Africa, and I still found the experience highly enjoyable and well-organized.
The only area for improvement would be the communication during the tour itself, which could have been a bit clearer at times regarding schedules and plans. Nevertheless, the overall experience was excellent, and I would still recommend Wild Uganda to anyone planning a safari in Uganda.
Outstanding
We have recently finished seven days visiting the gorillas & golden monkeys in the Kisoro area of Uganda. The whole trip met our needs perfectly. I struggle to think of anything that Ernest at Wild Uganda or our fantastic driver Kasim could have done to have improved it. Ernest was flexible in terms of what we wanted to see and do. Kasim was punctual, attentive, good company and an excellent driver on some pretty appalling roads. I have already recommended Wild Uganda to a good friend and would do so to others without hesitation
Guide Derrick Wadria made the trip perfect
I traveled for 10 days mostly through Uganda, finishing in Rwanda by myself with Derrick my driver/guide. He went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect for me & really made the trip 5 stars, request him if you can!
The accommodation along the way was great, the meals huge & my two favorite activities were Murchison Falls (at the top) & Gorilla trekking in Bwindi, both must dos in my humble opinion. Everyone else I really enjoyed too but they were the stand outs.
There is a lot of driving & the roads can be rough so be prepared for that.
I had 100% confidence in Derrick’s driving & he fixed the truck a couple times himself so he’s the perfect driver to have in so many ways!

Exceptional guides, flawless planning, unforgettable experiences.
We had an absolutely wonderful trip to Rwanda and Uganda with Wild Uganda.
From the very beginning, everything was organized at the highest level. Despite being experienced African travelers, the team managed to create a perfectly tailored itinerary for us in just one day. Every detail was taken care of - from excellent lodges to a comfortable and well-balanced program that allowed us to enjoy the destinations without feeling rushed.
This journey would not have been the same without our guide, Linus. From start to finish, he was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely cared about making our experience special. He always tried to secure the best possible conditions for us during activities, listened carefully to our preferences, and adapted the trip accordingly.
We especially appreciated his great sense of humor and the fascinating insights he shared about local culture, traditions, and daily life. By the end of the week, Linus truly felt like a member of our family.
He also personally guided our game drives, and when we jokingly mentioned that it would be amazing to see a leopard, he somehow made the impossible happen. Thanks to him, we had our very first leopard sighting in the wild - a moment we will never forget.
We highly recommend Wild Uganda to anyone looking for a seamless, professional, and memorable East African adventure. Thank you for creating such a special experience for us!

Amazing and best experience with Shafik Topkins
We had the best experience with Wild Uganda Shafik Topkins and Mathias were our group drivers and travelled with us to different cities and took care of our belongings and rearranged some of the program to make the trip easier on us so we can relax and chill in between our program and activities. They were going above and beyond to make sure everyone is doing well, comfortable and having fun ❤️🙏 Thanks to them and we will always recommend Wild Uganda to all our friends.

The best!
We just did a tour with Shafik and Matiya and it was incredible. The most well organized trip I’ve experienced in Africa. The cars were comfortable and always clean. The guides were accommodating and extremely knowledgeable and helpful, they’re more than tour guides, they’re lifelong friends now. I would highly recommend traveling with them. Simply the best.

The Greatest Adventure
This was the adventure of a lifetime! Wild Uganda amazed us in so many ways.
I emailed many operators when we started planning our Uganda and Rwanda trip. From the first message I was struck by Wild Uganda’s professionalism, dependability, and value. I corresponded with Ernest who had a deep knowledge and helped us craft a custom itinerary that checked everything on our list. We wanted to see a lot of gorillas and chimps while also getting a taste of the savannah. This was offered at a very attractive price and we locked it in.
We were met at the airport by our guide Brian and over the course of 9 days and 1200km we got to know him and his country, Uganda. Brian was a highlight of the trip - not only did he take care of all the details for us day-to-day, he was a wonderful ambassador of Ugandan culture and we felt like we learned so much from him. He also arranged an extra banana gin tasting experience that hadn’t been on the itinerary. And also his knowledge of the different gorilla families helped us get into a trekking group that saw a gorilla family with a ton of babies - our favorite! Another highlight - Brian spotted some antelopes in the distance that were all looking in one direction - we went to investigate and saw two leopards stalking them!!
The trekking itself was beyond awesome. Cutting through the rainforest with machetes we felt like explorers of old. We were left speechless by the power of the mighty silverbacks and felt such a connection to the families with babies wrestling and beating their chests. It was the coolest experience imaginable.
Upon arriving home I started recommending Wild Uganda to family, friends, and anyone else who would listen to me!
