A top-notch tour operator ensuring unforgettable experiences with expert guidance and planning
5/5

We recently had an incredible 7-day, 6-night tour in Uganda, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience! From gorilla trekking to chimpanzee tracking, exploring Queen Elizabeth National Park, Lake Bunyonyi, and Mburo National Park, every moment was filled with adventure and awe.

One of the highlights of our trip was spotting the famous tree-climbing lions in the Ishasha sector—a unique and thrilling sight. The boat ride was equally mesmerizing, offering us close-up views of many bird species, a massive herd of elephants, countless hippos, and the breathtaking beauty of the surroundings.

A huge part of what made our trip so special was our outstanding guide and driver, Levan. He was always punctual, deeply knowledgeable about Uganda’s wildlife, birds, and culture, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring we had the best experience. Levan’s professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made our journey seamless and unforgettable.

Levan even went above and beyond by helping us shop for souvenirs and other local items, making sure we brought home wonderful mementos of our trip. The accommodations were excellent, even though we chose a mid-luxury package, and every aspect of the tour exceeded our expectations.

We highly recommend this tour agency, and especially Levan, to anyone planning a visit to Uganda. His dedication and support made our entire trip a success, and we can’t thank him enough for making it so memorable!

Wow, what an experience
5/5

The gorilla experience was amazing. Nelson went above and beyond to exchange money for us and help us out with anything we needed. He made the drive from Kigali to Bwindi very enjoyable. He is so knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend him and Africa tours adventure

Fantastic tour with Levan!
5/5

Was extremely impressed with this company. Very organized and quick to respond. The accommodation was fantastic, especially as we did the lower cost option. The one hotel even supports local community development programs. Most importantly, Levan was an incredible guide. He was patient, very knowledgeable, and ensured that we had a safe and wonderful trip. I would absolutely travel with this group again!

5/5

I highly recommend Africa Tours Adventures. All communication with Nicholas was smooth and easy. Our private guide Mili was the absolute best and accommodated all our needs. The accommodations were amazing, they exceeded our expectation by far.

At the beginning I was hesitant to transfer the money in advance, but I trusted the rest of the good reviews and everything worked out perfectly. We have absolutely no complaints about this tour. We also found the prices a lot more competitive than with the rest of operators.

Absolutely Incredible - can't recommend enough!
5/5

The amount of tour options can honestly be a bit overwhelming, but look no further - I would HIGHLY recommend Africa Tours Adventure for your Uganda trekking experience. Before we even booked with them, they were so easy to work with and Nicholas quickly answered all of our questions and provided a detailed itinerary that could be customized based on our preferences.

Once we were actually on the tour, Levan our driver/guide was phenomenal. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the land and its people and was always willing to answer questions or ask you questions about what you were interested in. You obviously spend a lot of time in the car during this trip, and it never felt like there was a dull moment. Plus, he is an absolutely fantastic driver. The roads in Uganda are a bit all over the place, but he handled them all masterfully. He went out of his way a few times to make sure we saw things that we wanted to see (including an unforgettable lion encounter!!) and kept us to a pretty tight schedule without it ever feeling rushed or forced.

My wife and I did a 5 day gorilla trekking experience, and our only regret is that we didn't have longer! Our journey also included stopes at Kibale to see chimps, a drive through Queen Elizabeth National Park (the boat cruise is an absolute MUST), and kayaking on Lake Bunyonyi. All of our accommodations were next level (Turaco Treetops and Kiho Lodge standing out in particular) and it was so nice to not even have to think about these details.

Thank you to Nicholas, Levan, and everyone else who helped make this possible. We can't recommend them enough, and if you're considering them for your gorilla adventure, you will not be disappointed in choosing them.

well organised - value for mony
5/5

I travelled with a friend to Uganda and Africa Tours Adventure was the right choice! Very well organized and we saw all highlights on the tour ( specially to mention the big cat tracking with a rancher, nature walk with a rancher at lake Mburo etc)
During the planning Nicholas was always there to answer every question and cater our extras in ugrade lodges etc. Robert our guide and driver during the tour was excellent, always in time, knowledgable and a very safe driver which is very important as the main part of the tour is on dirt roads with mud and potholes.We had a fantastic time and would always recommend to book with Nicholas and his team! Thank you for all the unforgettable memories!

Excellent experience with Africa Tours Adventure
5/5

We are an American couple who went on a nine-day Ugandan safari in July 2023 organized by Africa Tours Adventure.

Africa Tours Adventure is Nicholas, and Nicholas was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He responded to every inquiry immediately, was knowledgeable and accommodating, and planned a great trip for us. Our complicated itinerary, through four national parks and including three primate trekking days, was completed seamlessly thanks to Nicholas's planning and our driver/guide Moses's handling of the details as we went.

Our trip was considered, and priced, as mid-level, but at least a couple of the lodges we stayed in could fit into the "luxury" category.

Moses worked hard to make sure we saw as many animals, and different kinds of animals, as we could in the time we had and generally seemed to do what he could to make sure we had a good safari. We appreciated Moses's dedication and hard work throughout the tour.

We had a great time. The tour more than met our expectations, and we recommend Africa Tours Adventure without hesitation.

Trip of a lifetime with Africa Tours Adventure!
5/5

We just returned from a 13-day trip in Uganda with Africa Tours Adventure. They are an exceptional company to work with. Nicholas, who tailored our trip based on our preferences and budget, put together a fabulous experience visiting Uganda  - from Ziwa to Murchison National Park, Kibale, Bwindi, Lake Bunyoni and Lake Mburo. The diversity of the activities ranging from game drives, boat rides, nature walks, chimps and gorillas trekking contributed to making this trip such a memorable one experience. The lodges (luxury) were excellent, with a special mention to Turaco Treetops in Kibale. The success of this trip was largely due to our guide, Levan. Levan is not only an excellent and safe driver, but he has also had an eye for spotting animals and is very knowledgeable about them. So, if you’re planning to visit Uganda, I highly recommend Africa Tours Adventure with Levan on your side!

Kind, caring and FUN!
5/5

I travelled with a group of 18 people in 3 vans, with guides Bernard, Chris and Patrick. It could not have been easy to navigate so many different people and places, but hey were beyond professional - they had big hearts, a great sense of humor and were all at once caring, courteous and knowledgeable. I always felt safe and would highly recommend Africa Tours Adventure!

Fourth time with Africa Tours Adventure - hopefully, there will be a fifth time in the future
5/5

I've been to Eastern Africa three times in the past years - always with Nicholas and his team. That's why I naturally reached out to him again in order to organize a four country trip (Burundi/Congo/Rwanda/Uganda). Nicholas again did a marvellous job and created a spot-on itinerary. He was always very responsive and patiently endured my whims.
The team and my guide Patrick expertedly navigated the customs/covid-19 bureaucracy and allowed for another memorable trip. Patrick was not only great in organizing the border crossings, he also was a very knowledgeable guide with eagle eyes in Akagera. I'm already hoping that there will be peace in Eastern Congo - not only for the local community, but also egoistically so that I can reach out again to Nicholas for a journey to the Virunga NP. There is a reason he only has 5 star reviews here.
