Excellent organisation and an amazing experience
This was our second Safari with Adventure Vacation Safaris (AVS). Our first was two years ago to Murchinson Falls and the experience was so good we did not get quotes from anyone else for tha second trip. This time we spent a week at Kibale (chimp tracking), Queen Elizabeth Park and Lake Mburo. The week was very well organised and money transfers between the UK and Uganda went. Without a hitch. The whole Safari was amazing the highlights being the Chimp trekking at Kibale and the lions at Queen Elizabeth. We were briefed at Kibale not to approach neare than 8 metres to the chimps. No one appears to have told the. Chimps because when they descended to the ground onw walked right through the middle of out group of seven people!
Our guide Innocent was very knowledgable about the animals and especially about the varied and abundant bird life. He was also very knowledgable about Uganda and the way of life of the people in the many villages and towns we passed through.
So Thank you to all the staff at AVS for a wonderful week we will ever forget.

Adventure Safaris and especially our guide Robert created a terrific experience in Uganda for us
Our guide Robert was really the highlight of our tour through Uganda. He took perfectly care of us, always friendly and with great patience. All our accomodations were inspected by him first and if something was not perfect he took care immediately. On the afternoon Safaris he always found the perfect place for our Sundowner. We recommended Robert to friends of us visiting Uganda in November.
What was not so good: our permit for the Gorillas requested a 2 hour drive from our lodge early in the morning, means we had to leave at 6h and wihtout breakfast. Nobody told us before - in this case we would have choosen another lodge or choosen another timing for our travel. But again Robert made the best out of it - he made tee for us an organized breakfast boxes.

Great tour with a great tour guide
It was our first visit to Uganda and it won't be the last! We really enjoyed our tour with Adventure Vacation Safaris. Everything was well organzied and our guide, Robert, has always been friendly, in time, interested in our wishes and our well-being. We saw and learned a lot about this beautiful country and can only recommend everyone to travel with Adventure Vacation Safaris.

Everything was exellent. Except the car. Moses was a very good guide and we saw a lot of animals. Pe
The Service was very good. My baggage was lost at brussels airport. Vacation Safaris brought my baggage to the first Lodge. So i had no problems.

Fantastic 5 day animal and lodge extravaganza
I did the 5 day big 5 tour with my husband, parents and brother - a mix of ages and tastes but we all LOVED it! Moses was a very experienced, competent and helpful guide - we felt in safe hands from start to finish. The vehicle provided was comfortable and professional. The Lodges were both very nice - Pakuba Lodge is really close to the animals, we had warthogs and waterbucks on our lawns by our room and elephants about 100m away on arrival! Marafiki was also a good Lodge with nice design features. Both had truly beautiful views. And my gosh the animals!!! This truly exceeded expectations. The rhino sanctuary is a once in a lifetime experience and the nation parks are amazing. Murchison waterfall hike was also a highlight. Tour company very friendly and easy to work with. All went very smoothly for an unforgettable experience!!!

The overall balance was really good. In particular the great professionalism of the guide, Robert
I'm delighted with the way everything has been going on: easy and quick communications, very good services, good choice of accommodations (always close to the national parks and the animals), very good and safe driver/guide... as fine as we could expect. We´ll reccommend AVS for sure

An experience that exceeded expectations.
Exceeded expectations regarding guide/driver, accommodation, and most important the safari itself. Communication was good and helpful. An excellent rating although there are still grounds for improvement regarding timing/flexibility of safari options and payment mechanisms.

It was so amazing and awesome!
The tour was perfect! And our guide Marc, too! It was so much more than we expected. Marc tried to make possible all we wanted to visit. He told us so much about the country, culture history and life. Everything was Perfect.

It was an amazing vacation!!
The holiday with Adventure Vacation Safaris was amazing. Our guide Michael was great and gave us a lot of information about the country, the nature and the animals. The lodges were perfect, especially because many of them were eco-friendly with amazing views and embedded into the nature surrounding them. This also made it a little adventurous, being able to listen to the animals at night.

Amazing trip, perfectly organized!
This was the best journey we ever made and we can really recommend this company.
Special thanks to Mark, our friendly and experienced guide and driver. He has shown us all aspects of his country...great wildlife, nice people and beautiful lodges.
We spent a very good time together and hope to come back soon.
