Fantastic
The accommodations were beautiful, safe, and we woke up to waterbucks and giraffes in the front lawn.
Simba Africa Expeditions delivered as advertised - a clean, safe, enjoyable and memorable experience
We traveled on the two-day chimpanzee tracking tour in Rwanda. Simba Africa Expeditions was very responsive, communicated clearly and effectively, and were very helpful in ensuring that our booking was complete. The accommodations near Nyungwe were absolutely wonderful on the top of a hill with great views and good food, although the timing of the tour didn't allow us much opportunity to enjoy the hotel. The chimpanzee tracking was very fun and the scenery was beautiful. The food stop for lunch on both days was not very good. This is the area where they can improve the most.

The tour operator did a good job. Everything was organized like we want.
We made a 4 days Murchison safari with our guide Tom. It was a great experience. Tom was avery good guide. He told us a lot about the animals Uganda and its people. In the nationalpark , he knew exactly where the animals are and so we had already seen the big five on the first day. We would book a tour again with Simba Africa Expeditions and then of course with Tom.
Thanks for the great trip

For tailor-made safari in Uganda (and beyond), Simba Africa Expedition is a perfect partner
It was a great pleasure to collaborate with Simba Africa Expeditions. Hajarah Namugenyi, our tour manager, was very responsive and supportive and met all our special requests. We book with her Gorilla tracking, Bwindi NP and Queen Elizabeth NP and can recommend her and Simba Africa Expeditions to a 100%. Thank you very much Hajarah

GREAT
Reliable. Friendly. Fair. Best value for money.
We rented a 4-WD for 3 weeks for our self-drive tour and also all our permits for CHEX and 2 gorilla trekkings.
Hajarah took care of everything in advance. She is not only nice, her service was really great. All her support was helpful and also her advices about our tour. She always replied prompt. 100% perfect. 100% service.
Moses picked us up at the airport and he is just phantastic. The car, by the way, was brilliant as well.
All we can say is: YES- we can recommend Simba Safari Expeditions by all means.
Thank you - Simba Safari Expeditions made our Uganda tour unforgettable and phantastic

From every point of view a lasting experience
The nature of this country is of incredible beauty. Xavier, our guide, was the best we could have to introduce us to this beauty, very professional regarding organization, very experienced with everything related to wildlife, very open to let us look a bit deeper into the culture of his country.
He's not only doing his job, he's doing it with dedication. It was great to have him as a guide!
The lodges we slept in were very nice and particular places, we really enjoyed staying there.
The food was good, but as it seems to be usual in Uganda, in the lodges the food offered is very influenced by Indian culture. The quality of everything we tried was without any doubt very good, but I can't hide that I enjoyed very much when there was the opportunity to try also local food whilst travelling...
It's difficult to describe all the single aspects of this trip. It was a really significant experience in its whole - for everything we had the opportunity to live and see there and thanks to the excellent back ground work of organization and preparation of our tour operator.
To be honest, we just want to go back and do another trip. Can't wait for it!

Great guide, helpful company, personalized itinerary... Highly recommend!
SAE was nothing but helpful while I was in the planning stages of my trip. I had a very vague idea of what I'd like to do and the team directed me into a week full of amazing adventure. They took on board what I was looking for out of my trip, my style with regard to accommodation and provided a service I would use again in a heart beat. My guide, Xavier, was fantastic. He went above and beyond to ensure my week met (and surpassed) my expectations. He was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and generally a great guy.
I will use them again as and when I can return to Africa, I genuinely cant recommend them enough. Thanks so much for everything!

Great experience of Uganda with an amazing driver
The pre-Safari communication with Simba was okay. We just expected a more active approach from Simba to send us guidelines and practical information since it was our first Safari. However we didn't receive such a practical info automatically. We had to send every time our questions to get answers. So a suggestion would be sending a standard practical info file to tourists so that they can organize their trips properly.
Our best part of our Safari service was our driver. Xavier was a great driver and guide. He was very punctual, responsible and expert in his job. We had an amazing experience of Safari with him, he took us everywhere and explained everything to us. Meanwhile we also had many interesting talks during the long Safari driving with him. We were very happy having him as our guide and I strongly recommend him.
The lodges booed by Simba were very nice too. My two favorite ones were gorilla mist and Forest camp. Gorilla mist was an incredible experience. The last lodge at lake bunanoyei, however, was not very proper. It was not very clean and comfortable.
In general we had a good experience with Simba and we are happy with our experience :)
