Vegan Uganda Gorillas
Visiting Africa has always been a big question mark for me. We heard about this vegan tour that was being organized and decided to be part of this group of 18 travelers. From the moment we arrived at the airport, to the moment we left, I felt safe, comfortable, and looked after by our guide Bernard. We had 3 cars with 6 people in each car. The three guides (also Patrick & Chris) worked together and stayed together to provide an exciting and memorable experience. The itinerary was excellent, and we stayed in some very lovely lodgings, starting from our arrival in Kigali, Rwanda. The company arranged all of our food options making it super easy, stress-free travel. Rooms and bedding were comfortable and all staff on various parts of the tours were eager to look after us. I was pleased to see that a number of women were working as porters, trekking guides, and rangers. They all did a great job and were very passionate about preserving the wildlife! Bring lots of small bills so it is easy to give tips!!

Excellent guides make for a top notch experience
From gorilla and chimp trekking in Uganda, to boat cruises and game drives, to urban experiences in Kigali, Rwands, Africa Tours Adventure made our trip a top notch experience. Our driver guides, Patrick, Chris & Bernard, were warm, funny, personable and extremely knowledgeable about the people, culture and wildlife we experienced.
We came as a group of 18 vegans and the company made sure that our dietary needs were met at every stop. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a safe but adventurous trip to these beautiful countries

Great experience and great value!
My Wife and I did a 6-day Uganda Safari with Africa Tours Adventure for our honeymoon (Kibale-QENP-Bwindi-Bunyoni). We chose Africa Tours adventure because it was cheaper than other well-reviewed tour operators, and were very happy with our choice.
Itinerary: The itinerary was great! I imagine it would be similar with many operators, but if you’re considering a Ugandan itinerary with Gorilla tracking, I’d highly recommend it — it’s such an amazing experience. If you can pay extra to extend the chimp experience, I would consider doing that as well (because its a shorter experience, we only got to see the chimps far away, in the treetops). Our tour guide, Levan was very open to adding activities in the area if we told him what we wanted.
Guide: Levan was excellent. He was super personable, and we ate most of our meals together, so we learned way more about Uganda than we otherwise would have (I know with some companies, the guides don’t generally have meals with their guests). While we were passing through his home town, he took us to his mom’s house and we got to try some authentic food and drink and see his family’s home, which was quite neat!
Lodging: The lodging was all nice mid-tier lodging; although the tour was budget compared to many other options, none of the lodging felt budget at all.
Vehicle: This is the one thing that felt more budget about this tour. It was a 90s style 5-seater land cruiser rather than the big classic Safari Jeep, so for the driving Safaris, it wasn’t as good as the full Jeep experience (which we had done on another leg of our trip) and was definitely more cramped. They offered the option to use a normal truck for driving between places and rent safari vehicles in the parks, but we wanted to have the option to put the top up for the en-route game drive, so we didn’t take them up on that option.
Company: The company is very well organized. We had car trouble due to bad roads, and Levan and the company worked incredibly quickly to make sure it wouldn’t have an impact on our trip.
Long story short, I’d say that the tour with Africa Tours Adventure felt like a well-run, mid-tier tour, at a budget price, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!
Uganda shines and outperforms all expectations
After several weeks of researching safari options we pined it down to Africa Safari with a Uganda location.
We were extremely satisfied with our experience and happy with our choice
We selected a 4 day option starting with an incredible Gorilla trek in Bwindi Nat’l park. Remember to specify what type of hike you would like to experience. You can select an easier shorter vs longer trek.
Our driver Kaye was extremely resourceful, knowledgeable and a great driver.
Be prepared for rough dirt roads s you will be headed to remote lodge gor gorilla viewing as well for the Queen Elizabeth Park.
Thanks to Kaye’s patience we saw a tree lion camouflaged in a big fig tree, a rarely seen leopard, many antilopes, water buffalos, antilopes and monkeys.
Lodges provided clean and comfortable accommodations with unique and delicious diners.
If you’re torn between Rwanda vs Uganda safari experience you won’t be disappointed with a Uganda experience.

Unreal Uganda!
Thank you so much to Africa Tours Adventure for exceeding our expectations of Uganda. From the organisation, to the end of the trip - we could not fault a thing. We were lucky enough to be assigned the most amazing Tour Guide; Patrick; and he made our trip just that extra bit more memorable. Such a gentleman and so knowleagle. My sister and I asked about 100 questions a day and because of him, we left "the Pearl of Africa" knowing and having learnt so much. All the Lodges we stayed in were as mind-blowing as the last; Bakiga, Embogo and Enganzi. Just WOW to all of them. Each with their special selling point and unique locations and views. Food and service was great throughout and we loved the car too (as we spent a lot of time in the car), it was clean and comfy and when the roof opened up, we were on cloud 9 for the Safari drives! Not to forget the main reason we went to Uganda; the Gorillas! We were priviledged enough to spend 1hour with the Mukiza Family (18 members) and again, this whole trek and experience was phenomenal.
Highly recommend Uganda to everyone - it is safe and beautiful and the people are so welcoming. And no better way to explore this Country than with Africa Tours Adventure. Thank you!

Highly recommended for trips in Uganda
We took a 12 day tour with Africa Tours Adventure across Uganda. The initial communication was very smooth and Nicholas was able to accommodate all my wishes into our customized itinerary. He also supported us with our visa. Our guide Levan was very knowledge, reliable, a very safe driver. He made the tour a huge success. The accommodation provided exceeded my expectations in terms of quality of the food and rooms. Thank you to the entire team and I highly recommend Africa Tours Adventure to anyone wanting to visit Uganda.

The best tour company for Africa
Africa Tour Adventure were simply outstanding in arranging our 8 day tour in Rwanda including Gorilla Safari. They provide amazing service especially when we had to re-schedule the whole tour last minute due to cancelled flights. Nicholas was able to re-organise the itinerary in a day and we were ready to discover Rwanda when we landed in Kigali.
We had a life changing Gorilla trekking experience!!
We experienced Rwanda thanks to our amazing guide (Julius Tinkamayire) who was very knowledgeable. Julius was constantly striving to make our trip better and would advise us where we could change our plans to improve the experience. He's the type of guide you could rely on in any situation.
Look forward to visiting Rwanda again in the future and exploring more of Rwanda with our guide Julius.

Professional and high attention to detail.
A memorable trip from start to finish. If you are coming to Uganda and want to do a trip like this, book with these guys. Their knowledge and understanding of how to make a trip perfect from start to finish is second to none. Levan our driver, was fantastic. We really enjoyed his company, and during the game drive, he noticed a lions tail sticking out of a bush from 50 M’s away. We ended up seeing a family of five because of his sharp eyes. The accommodation and food were fantastic. Such an amazing experience.
