Chris is the best guide
5/5

Well where do I start this trip was absolutely amazing we seen everything we came to see this country is amazing.
Our tour guide Chris is amazing I have been on a lot of tours but Chris was by far the best we ever had from start to finish. He was so kind and had a lot of knowledge about the wildlife and about the country itself any questions we had he knew the answers he took so many photos of us to we didn't even have to ask he always made sure we where happy and comfortable the whole trip the trip would not have been the same without Chris we will miss him on our travels and hope to come back to Uganda in the future.
Trekking was amazing food was 10/10 and the service was 11/10.

Wonderful experience, amazing trip, fantastic family holiday!!
5/5

We (my husband, daughter and I) recently returned from a 9-day Wildlife Gorillas and Chimpanzee Safari trip in Uganda. From the very first interaction with Reagan, through the planning stages to finalising our itinerary, everything was seamless. One of our reasons for choosing Dav Safaris was it's exceptional value for money. We arranged a private tour for our family and Reagan was very attentive in listening to our ideas and making helpful suggestions for our trip all within our budget and timeframe. It was a great balance between busy days and travel days. Our guide Arafat was fantastic and made a special effort to ensure our daughter was having a wonderful experience. He went above and beyond in every way possible and exceeded all our expectations. The food and accomodation was excellent. All the staff we met along the way were exceptional. All our experiences including the safaris, boat tours, treks with gorillas, chimps and Rhinos were amazing. One of the main reasons for coming to Uganda was the opportunity to do the gorilla trek and our guide was instrumental in helping arrange the perfect gorilla family for us to see. We were so impressed with Dav Safaris and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you Reagan and Arafat for the most wonderful trip!!

Excellent planning, just perfect!
5/5

We picked up at the Airport, Richard was already waiting for us and we start our tour immediatly. All accomodations was very clean an the staff very friendly. Richard did a perfect Job, he explaind all the wildlife we are seeing in the different Parks, we are very lucky, because we are glad to see the big five, also Chimpanzee on tour and also Gorillas on tour, really amazing, because we didn't expect to see the Gorillas that clone! And of course a lot of Gazelles an Birds, all over the perfect experience!

Action packed 5 days!
5/5

Our tour guide Adison was excellent, amazing driving skills! We encountered an immigration snag, but we were impressed the tour operator was able to push everything back one day thankfully. A lot of driving, but it was a very interesting drive through the villages. The Nkuringo gorilla lodge was the nicest place we have ever stayed. The gorillas was definitely the highlight of the entire Africa trip!

5/5

Dav Safaris were very proactive when organising our tour and meeting our requests. Our guide and driver, Adison, was very helpful, friendly and organized. We had a great time and really enjoyed the Gorillas at Bwindi and Rhinos at Ziwa.

Gorillas and Chimps 5 Day Tour
5/5

I booked with Dav after trying to find the cheapest tour to see the Gorillas and Chimps in Uganda. I wasn't expecting much. But I was really surprised to find out it was a private tour and the level of quality. The accommodation was great. Great 3 course meals everywhere we went. The experiences themselves were amazing!!! And Richard the guide/driver was awesome!

Organised
4/5

I had Godfrey as our guide.
He was organised and knowledgable.
Accomodations given were good. Van had aircon, was pretty new.

Just note to bring a small fan as the weather in Uganda is hot and there are no fans in the accomodations provided.

General tip, always check how long your safari time would be, if it's shorten, do not hesitate to question and they will make it right.

I did a 3 day's gorilla trekking at bwindi forest. Last min added a safari trip to lake mburo.

Excellent experience
5/5

We - a family of 4 - had a wonderful 5 day trip to the Chimpanzees and the Gorillas in Bwindi. Everything was perfectly organized and we had a lifetime experience seeing these primates in their wild habitat. The hotels and food was excellent. Our guide and driver Richatd was extremely friendly and helpful during the whole trip

Amazing trip to see the gorillas
5/5

We booked a 4-day, 3-night gorilla trekking adventure with Davis Safaris, and it exceeded our expectations! The highlight was, of course, encountering the gorillas in Bwindi, but every part of the journey was memorable. We loved seeing the adorable golden monkeys and were captivated by the stunning beauty of Lake Bunyonyi.

Our guide, Adams Gorilla, was exceptional. He was always punctual, kept us informed about the daily schedule, and had an impressive knowledge of everything we asked. Plus, he is incredibly friendly and hilarious. The van we traveled in was clean and comfortable, and the itinerary was well-balanced, with varied activities and accommodations that never felt overwhelming.

Overall, this was an unforgettable experience for my first time in Africa, and I highly recommend Davis Safaris and Adams Gorilla. Thank you so much!
