Great experiences und impressions of Uganda with the highlight visiting the gorillas.
First of all we would like to thank our guide Moses for the friendly assistance during our week in Uganda.
It was a pleasure meeting you. Nevertheless don't forget to be always in time :-).
The accomodations are all absolutely perfect for that that trip. The wunderful nature especially in QE Bush Lodge and
Arcadia Lodge Bunyonyi will be always in our mind. Also the support of all staff in the hotels were very impressive.
The safari tour itself (Ishasha and QE Nationalpark) was nice but not comparable with Tansania where we spent a holiday four years due to the amount of different animals.
Nevertheless we will keep the green Uganda always in our mind due to many great experiences, also outside the "normal" tour.
The most amazing experience was Bwindi Nationalpark with the gorilla family and also chimapnzee trekking in Kibale Forest National Park.
Thanks for giving us the chance to collect so many great impressions.

Adventure made easy with Speke Uganda Holidays
This was our second time using Speke Uganda Holidays and once again they did not disappoint. We typically don't use tour operators when we travel, except when doing wildlife/safari tours. But we were greeted at the airport by our guide and he made sure we had everything we needed from that point until our tour was complete. The safari tour was fantastic and we learned a lot about the culture and history of Uganda from Husein. He anticipated our needs and stopped along the way to pick up local delicacies for us to try - fruits, grasshoppers, etc. And the accommodations selected by Speke were top-notch. We fell in love with the country on this trip. We'd recommend the company to anyone traveling to Uganda.

Unforgettable Holidays in Uganda - the Pearl of Africa
We booked the tour "Best of Uganda" and we got the BEST!
Our fantastic guide Eyevan was very knowledgeable, safe driver, friendly and spoke very good German.
All the lodges were great, most of them with stunning views. Unforgettable Chimpanzee and Gorilla tracking experience.
We had wonderful holidays and everything was above our expectations. Thanks to Speke for the Top Organization!

An unforgettable experience
This was our seventh visit to the African continent and it was the best by far. Our driver/guide Nelson was fantastic. His bird spotting ability was second to none. All the lodges that we stayed at were of the highest standard and all the meals were excellent.
we would certainly recommend our itinerary with you to any interested party

The organisation was perfect, the tour guide was very competent and friendly.
Many thanks for organizing this 9 days trip through a landscape, that is so varied. We saw a lot of the landscape, the people and of course many wildlife animals. The highlight were the Gorillas. Even if we had to go 3 hours to get there. Uganda is such an interesting landscape with the different parts of nature. In the north is it like Africa, in the south like Switzerland. Wonderful. The climate is nice for Europeans. It is really the Pearl of Africa. The streets could be better. But after one day we got used to it. Our Lodges were good or very good an the food also. It was a perfect but too short holiday. Next time I will stay longer.

Amazing, unique experience with expert guide and company. Thank you!
Speke Uganda Holidays and in particular our guide David made this truly amazing experience extra special. The trip was very well organised from beginning to end, the accommodation was lovely (and usually in a fabulous, scenic location), and everything was focused on making sure that our experience was the best it could possibly be. I cannot speak highly enough of Speke Uganda Holidays. A very professional company whose focus is on making sure that their clients enjoy their time in this lovely country. Our guide David clearly loves his country and is an amazing ambassador for Uganda and for Speke Uganda Holidays.

Four weeks private trip through Uganda
Our journey through Uganda took us almost all over the country, from Entebbe to the north to the Kidepo Valley National Park, to the south to Bwindi National Park and from there via Ssese Islands back to Entebbe. Everywhere we met nice people the accommodations and the food was very good and the whole trip was a great experience. Not only the organizer but also our very good driver-guide David had a big part in that. He has always responded to all our wishes and ideas, especially on safaris.
The absolute emotional highlight was the encounter with the mountain gorillas in the Bwindi National Park. Even the tour to the gorillas, over streams and dense vegetation is an experience. To experience a gorilla family with playing baby then up close in about 2-4 m distance is deeply impressive and unforgettable.

Amazing trip to Uganda with Speke
We had an amazing tour in Uganda in early Feb 2019 organized by Speke.
It started with planning the trip and customizing it to our requests. Stella was super supportive of our special requests - and customized the tour for us. Our guide, Asman, was terrific. His knowledge, friendliness, and true care for our needs - made this a wonderful trip.
The lodges we stayed at were all great.
We started with the amazing gorillas at Bwindi forest. A truly touching experience.
We then went north to see wildlife in Ishasha , chimpanzees, elephants, hippos and more in Kazinga channel and much more.
And all along the way we met the nice and friendly people of Uganda!
Many thanks to Speke for a truly great experience!
