Amazing, unique experience with expert guide and company. Thank you!
5/5

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.

5/5

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.

An unforgettable experience
5/5

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

Unforgettable Holidays in Uganda - the Pearl of Africa
5/5

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!

Adventure made easy with Speke Uganda Holidays
5/5

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.

This tour was a breathtaking experience.
5/5

This tour more than lived up to my expectations. Our guide, Peter, was knowledgeable on all topics. He communicated the itinerary to us both the day before and the morning of with times for breakfast and departure, the activities, how we should dress, etc. He was able to deal with a variet of personalities, some difficult ones, with respect and an understanding of that person's culture and idiosyncrasies. The tour itself was nicely paced with some very active days and some where we were able to relax and just enjoy the beautiful scenery. Peter made sure we remained healthy and safe providing water and fresh fruit and inquiring as to how we were feeling. All of the othe guides and rangers we encountered were also kind, knowledgeable, and respectful. The accommodations we stayed in were breathtaking. The gorilla and chimpanzee trekking days were fun and exciting. There was a respect for those primates from those who live and work there. I liked that we were given the opportunity to experience the culture by visiting the villages. The variety of activities was excellent. I would certainly travel with Speke Uganda again.

An emotional journey to our birth place and Tony our driver/guide ensured that it went smoothly
5/5

Great trip with Tony looking after us expertly and with great care. He was like a part of our family. What an unforgettable experience Uganda was. The happy smiling people and the beautiful country. Great lodges with good food. Saw everything apart from the elusive leopard. Tony did not give up trying to find for us. Saw 10 lions!!! Sadly not with us anymore.

We got more than we expected!
5/5

Me and my husband spent 10 days travelling around in Uganda with our fantastic guide David (the master of avoiding potholes and bumps). He took really good care of us and he taught us a lot about the Ugandan culture, politics and lifestyle. Everything went smooth without any problems. We saw all the animals we expected to see and maybe a few more. We can warmly recommend Speke Uganda Holidays!
