Superb safari with Simba African Expeditions
What a wonderful experience from start to finish. Moses, Patricia and our driver Frank were very professional and Frank so knowledgeable. He took care of everything we needed and the Pakuba Lodge where we stayed was right on the Nile.
We took loads of photos and Frank went above and beyond driving us through the grasslands to find wildlife.
Murchison Falls is a beautiful area, the boat trip and seeing the falls are spectacular but be amazed by seeing giraffes, leopard, lions, elephants, warthog, water buffalo, Jackson heartbeast, kobs and more.
As an extra we visited the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary which is a must alongside this fabulous 3 day tour.

2-days tour at Murchinson Falls NP
We spent an amazing 2-days tour at Murchinson Falls NP. We really enjoyed the experience and Ashraf, our guide, was absolutely the best!

Precise, friendly and very flexible!
We had a 1-day sipi waterfall tour.
It was an amazing experience! We got to walk by the beautiful waterfalls, learning about the locals, trying local fruit, learning about coffee and preparing our own coffee from scratch! We then had an amazing lunch and ended the tour with the waterfall abseiling which was a once in a lifetime experience!
Sam and Ashraf are very professional guides and very knowledgeable! Also everyone was very flexible to our choices to make sure we enjoy the most!

Stay in luxury hotels with hidden costs and last minute program changes
The program changed at the last moment,just before leaving,so that from the initial 2 days in the rainforest only half remained and many cultural visits got cancelled(like the visit at the king's palace). The meals promised for one reason or another got reduced and for the remaining I had to pay for water,although it was all inclusive. At arrival the driver wasn't waiting for me and he didn't answer his phone,yet after contacting the central bureau and waiting for around an hour he came and picked me up. I got to see the promised animals and I passed 4 days really pleasantly with Tonny,my driver,which overshadowed the afore mentioned tiny details. Yet if I had to do the journey again,I would book it independently, since Rwanda is a safe country and I would have gotten more for the half price.Indeed for the 5K I paid I would expect impeccable service without tiny traps and tricks.

Our tour was well organized and our guides personable and attentive.
We visited Bwindi National Park for a gorilla trek and had a wonderful time. On returning to Entebbe, we visited the Ngamba Chimpanzee Sanctuary that was also fascinating. The tours were well organized. Our arrangements through Simba were fantastic as we had good information so that we were well prepared. The value was excellent.

Great service and wonderful experience!
This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I had a short amount of time in the extension of a work trip, and had no idea that I would get to see and experience so much greatness in two days! I was picked up by a nice and safe driver and got to see both a beautiful and spectacular waterfall, a fantastic boat trip on the Nile (got to see many hippos, beautiful birds, elephants, crocodiles etc). - magical. The lodge I stayed at (Paraa) was nice, with great view over the Nile and great food. The safari experiences were amazing - both in the afternoon and early morning. I even got to see lions chasing a herd of buffalo and catching a calf! I was transported back to Kampala/Entebbe in good time for my flight home. Had good lunch at a place with a nice garden on the way. There are many hours in the car but, so much to see on the way, and I felt very safe and looked after all the way. Thanks to Simba for all the arrangement and very good service!

Basic itinerary elements were not delivered as agreed upon but nice overall trip
We did a 5-day safari with Simba Expeditions to Kidepo National Park in uganda. Although the trip and especially the nature were overall very nice, we encountered several issues with the tour operator, that left a bitter-sweet aftertaste.
For example, our itinerary and invoice clearly included a landcrusier vehicle but on the day of the safari we got a different car type (that was less comfortable and would usually cost less than what we paid for). When we raised the issue with Simba expeditions, the only solution they offered was to stop the trip immediately (after we have already been on the road for several hours) return to Kampala and get a full refund. Obviously, this was not an option for us, as it is impossible to organize another safari on such short notice.
Apart from a few if those issues, the trip and nature we experienced was really great.
Rwanda Uganda Gorilla Trekking
I highly recommended Simba African Expeditions. They were very responsive from the beginning and accommadatiing with any changes. Our driver and guide Jackson was fantastic. He is very knowledgeable in the history of Rwanda and well versed in the ecology of the area both Rwanda and Uganda. You'll have no regrets using Simba African Expeditions for your safari, gorilla trekking experience
