3 fantastic, informative days
I had little time and so a 3 day tour was all it was possible to fit in. They were packed with interest - even the days we were travelling to and from the Murchison National Park. We saw so many animals and stayed at the very comfortable Fort Murchison Lodge (good food!). The Guide was very responsive checking in to flex the programme with whatever I needed/wanted. I recommend this tour!

Amazing time!
Our drivers were awesome! They were on time, extremely nice and helpful! We had extra time on one of the trips so they drove us around the city and gave us a tour. They were very knowledgeable about the areas we went to and we always felt safe!!

A professional and bespoke company that created an authentic, once in a lifetime trip. Thank you!
I travelled with Steady Safari for three and a half weeks with my sister. Carlos gave prompt quotes and great itinerary suggestions and Steve, a partner and driver, was an excellent guide. He helped the trip to flow smoothly, gave a bespoke service and had incredible knowledge and passion for his country. His language skills meant that we were able to learn greetings in the local language where we travelled and connect with people in a small way. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who wants a professional, safety conscious company who can provide an experience that can never be forgotten.
Great driving
I have used Steady Safari's more than once as I coordinate group travel. They are the most timely safari operators I've ever worked with, know Uganda very well and are very safe. An all round great experience.

These guys were absolutely awesome!!!
Our drivers while in Uganda were terrific! We were always safe, they were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The night safari was well planned and definitely a highlight of my life. Our driver, Kenny, became a fast friend and taught us tremendously about Uganda. Steady Safari is the way to travel!

Murchison falls 3 day safari
We had a short safari organized by Steady Safaris a local company run by 2 blocks who are brothers. Carlos and Steve own the company. Our initial communication was done by Carlos who responds to emails immediately, which I found very professional since we did not waste to much time waiting. Steve did our orientations for both before and after the safari. They really and I must emphasize this, really understand the business asking the right question and keeping everything within cost. So please next time you are in or going to Uganda consult steady safris limited to organize you a your.

Bespoke birding safari to Murchison Falls National Park
Stephen, Carlos' brother, was my guide. We spent two full days in the Park, having driven up from Kampala. The organisation by Steady Safaris was excellent and Carlos came to meet me personally a few days beforehand at my accommodation in Kampala with a typed folder of the itinerary. Stephen's English was excellent and he made sure I was at ease throughout the trip. He had even caught the bird sighting bug by the end and was quite prepared to stop anywhere to have a closer look. I chose a mid range level of accommodation and the Murchison Falls River Lodge is well situated on the bank of the Nile. Stephen was able to arrange that one of the bird-knowledgeable rangers accompany us for a full day which increased our bird spotting rate a lot. He just knew where to find that elusive shoebill stork.
It was a thoroughly enjoyable safari with a capable and confidence inspiring company. I would certainly use them again.

Amazing Experience!
I went on a safari with Steady Safaris a few weeks ago and it was an absolutley unforgettable experience! The whole process was easy and we were given exceptional care throughout our entire trip. Our guide Carlos was phenomenal! He was incredibly knowledgeable and so fun to be around. We had such a fun time and learned so much. Carlos took care of everything for us, we didn't have to worry about a thing! He really tried to make sure we saw everything we wanted to see while we were there as well as giving us so much information on the animals, plants, and surroundings. I would say it's a once in a lifetime experience, but after doing it once you will want to go back again and again. The experience is truly indescribable. I would definitely book with Steady Safaris over and over again!

Fantastic!
The safari was amazing! We had a great time! Our tour guide was Carlos, and he was very personable and professional. He made sure we were drinking enough water, wore plenty of sunscreen, and had insect repellent. We saw every single animal on our list, even the super rare ones. 100% satisfied!

Professional and excellent service combined with personal touches to make the perfect trip!
We had a wonderful three days in Murchison Falls national park with Steady Safaris. From initial contact and planning with Carlos to our time with our guide Noel the whole experience was to class. Carlos was very happy to work within our budget and to help us make the most of our short time and always responded to emails promptly and in a professional but friendly manner. And from the moment we were met at the airport by Noel, through the drive up to the National Park, through driving around, through conversations over dinner (excellent food in Fort Murchison!) and through bring dropped off at the end, we were looked after really well. Noel was so knowledgeable and always happy to answer questions and point things out, and also just good and interesting company! Sadly we didn't see lions or a leopard - but this wasn't Noel's fault! And it gives us a good excuse to return! And if and when we do we'll definitely be using Steady Safaris - I would recommend them to anyone.
