Adventure of a lifetime!
My family of 5 took a 28 day African safari through the countries of Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania. We had the time of our lives. Charles was our guide and helped us navigate the itinerary that was tailored specifically for our family’s interests. We did it all! Charles drove our safari vehicle through all corners of Uganda starting on the streets of Kampala, fishing in Lake Victoria, canoeing to discover the elusivei shoebill, white water rafting the Nile, hiking beautiful Sipi falls, visiting Betty and Tolbert’s coffee plantation, dancing with the Karamajong people, touring Kidepo, walking through the park with the gentle giraffes, seeing the most beautiful animals and birds imaginable. Charles drove us to Murchison Falls next where we went on game drives that kept getting better and better, we boated to the falls, hiking up to the top of them. On to Kibale, we went chimpanzee, gorilla and golden monkey trekking. We boated Lake Mburo and Lake Bunyonyi. There is not enough room to list all of the wonderful sites and animal encounters that Charles took us to. Top notch food, fun and unique accommodations the entire journey. We were so blessed to have had this opportunity with our trusted guide Charles leading the way. We can’t wait to go back!

Polite, professional and flexible
I took the 3 day Murchison Falls tour, and it was full of interesting and eventful moments.
Charles is a quiet, professional and attentive tour guide. Where possible, he was also flexible ( stay longer or take a small detour at certain points).
It was a trip where I got to see the Ugandan countryside through the lenses of a local. On the road travel we stopped at a few markets and interacted with the locals.
There were several highlights, but going on foot into the Rhino Sanctuary was a thrilling experience (with professional park guides and a briefing). We were able to see these magnificent animals (one of the Big 5) through scrub as our line of demarcation.
Murchison Falls was magnificent .... like standing beside a jet engine... and columes of water spray.
I highly recommend this company and Charles.

An Amazing Guide and Unforgettable Experience
Charles was an amazing guide and truly made our safari an experience we will never forget. He went above and beyond throughout the entire trip, always helping with our luggage and gear and sharing his incredible knowledge of the animals, national parks, and different communities we visited. His English is excellent, and he was always happy to answer our questions.
Some of our drives between the National parks were several hours long, which gave us the chance to really get to know Charles. We quickly saw just how hardworking, driven, and genuinely kind he is. By the end of the trip, he felt so much more than just our guide.
Charles also seems to know people everywhere, which definitely has its perks! One of our most unforgettable experiences was when he called a ranger friend who knew about a leopard resting in a tree. Charles took us there, and we were able to watch the leopard without a crowd of other safari vehicles around us. It was such an intimate and incredible experience.
Charles knows the secret spots, knows the right people, and is always willing to go the extra mile to make your trip special. I’m planning another trip within the year, just so I can have Charles show me another unforgettable experience.

Entale African Safari is a reliable organization with expertise and is extremely friendly.
In 2024, I spent 14 days in Uganda with Charls Friday (CEO of Entale African Safari). My initial nervousness vanished the moment I saw Charls at the airport upon arrival. He demonstrated his professionalism from the very beginning. From the greeting to the farewell, everything was perfectly coordinated. He shared his extensive knowledge of his country and its wildlife with me and my friend. He looked after us with great respect throughout our trip and gave us the sense of security that two women traveling alone needed. He was always available to accommodate our requests. Thanks to Charls, I fell in love with Uganda, and I plan to visit again next year, but only with Entale African Safari.
