Rwanda and Uganda in best hands!
Wild Jungle Trials offered to us a customised tour and safari in Rwanda and Uganda. Pick-up in Kigali and drop off in Entebbe was no problem at all, the one-way option saved us much time on the road. Communication with Teresa at the office and Twaha himself was a pleasure, the proposed route was adjusted to our wishes concerning activities, hotels and price range.
Route details 10 days: Kigali, Lake Kivu with kayaking, Volcanoes NP with Golden monkey treking, Kisoro, Bwindi NP with Gorilla treking, Lake Bunyonyi, game drives to tree-climbing lions at Ishasha section (Queen Elizabeth NP), Queen Elizabeth NP with game drives and boat safari, chimpanse treking in Kyambura gorge, game drives and boat trip at Lake Mburo NP, Uganda equator, Kampala. Awesome activities throughout the safari!
Very good accommodations, nice food, comfortable, spacious tour van, reasonable prizes and the best tour guide in whole Uganda! Thank you again, Twaha!

We booked Wild Jungle Trail Safaris, especially Mr. Lukwago Twaha, for our safari in Rwanda and Uganda for the second time now, because Twaha is just our man! And again, we did not regret it.
Planning of the trip is easily done via email. Since we already knew the spots, we asked for a specific list of highlights we wanted to cover. The itinerary is well prepared and the lodges/hotels were just as we wanted them. You can choose your level of accommodation. Everything from low budget to high class is possible. Meals were always decent and excellent.
On very short notice, we asked to go Gorilla Trekking the other day, although we have not planned it - and they made it possible for us without charging any extra fee for the change of plans (except the trekking fee of course).
Overall we had just 11 perfect days
Thank you very much and see you next time, Twaha!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE! Wow, above and beyond impressed with Wild Jungle Trails Safaris!
This was my second Ugandan safari. It had been several years since I had been so was unsure about how the process was going to work. However, Twaha and his team at Wild Jungle Trails made the process seamless. Not to mention the actual safari was a dream and such a unique experience. We did not have to worry about anything from start to finish. Everything was communicated in a timely manner and clearly. I would recommend above and beyond this company. You will not be disappointed and in fact, I think you will be shocked at how wonderful your experience will be!

What a wonderful experience provided by Wild Jungle Trails! Highly recommended.
I came to know Wild Jungle Trails through trusted personal references and was overwhelmed by their services and staff during my 10-day vacation in Uganda. Our guide (and owner), Lukwago Twaha, is a very special person. ❤️
Here is what was provided:
>Customized itinerary
>Attentive and accommodating treatment
>Super positive attitude throughout
>Trustworthy and safety-conscious events and activities
>Knowledge and solid relationships with locales everywhere we went
>Ease in booking, scheduling, and execution
>Excellent food venues
Here are some of the activities on our itinerary:
>3-night stay at The Haven (my favorite place — quaint and absolutely beautiful— ‘that day’-fresh fish served every day)
>Boat ride to the source of the Nile (which I learned was a complicated assertion to many)
>Trek through Rhino Sanctuary (got a t-shirt of Obama the Rhino — who escaped the sanctuary boundaries the day before our visit-lol)
>Hike thru Jungle to see chimps (we stood in awe watching a family of chimps interact—to include a little baby chimp who seemed to be personally entertaining us)
>Visit to local village to visit 7-yr old Mission-sponsored girl (Grace, the beautiful)
>Personal visit to home of city-dwelling dairy farmer (answering question, how do Ugandan’s live behind that gate?)
>White-water rafting on the Nile (Fun!! And safe due to excellent river guides)
>Two addt’l ferry/boat rides on the Nile (different times of day provide different types of bird and mammal sightings— who knew?!)
>And finally— 2 Safari outings (elephants, giraffes, antelope(s), birds galore, huge dung beetle(yes, odd to mention but so cool), signs of leopards and large cats ...)
Uganda is awesome!! Thank you Wild Jungle Safaris and Twaha.

Twa was personable, fun, knowledgeable, and he knew where to find all the animals, inc lions!
I have been on three safaris with Wild Jungle Trails and I would never use any other tour. This June we were able to go on a morning and evening game drive and in doing so we saw the sun rise and set! It was breathtaking! We saw a large herd of elephants and giraffes up close and personal. We also were able to see a lion in a tree (which I understand is highly unusual), a lion sitting in the grass, and four lions plus three lion cubs lying in the shade under a small clump of bushes. It was amazing! Twa is the best guide you could ever hope for. He knows how to find the animals everyone wants to see and he is able to get very close to them. He always makes sure we have plenty of time to take pictures and asks us to tell him when we want to go or stay longer on the site. He is also very fun and engaging! He will tell you interesting facts about the land, the Nile river, and all the animals you will find there. He picked us up promptly when he was supposed to and provided a clean and comfortable vehicle and ride. I could not expect more from his tours. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Wild Jungle Trails operations and Twa as your guide!

4 day Bwindi and Queen Elizabeth
I would recommend Wild Jungle Trails! I contacted more than 15 companies and WJT offered the most competitive price and a good itinerary.
The lodges are nice but nothing luxurious.
The highlight is the guide, Twaha! First and foremost, safaris involves a lot of driving but I have always felt that I was in safe hands!
The best part was when he was in the parks looking for animals! He would always be calling other guides in the park to see where the animals are - he really puts in his efforts! And you can tell he is well connected with other guides from different companies since he would stop for a short chat with other passing by safari vehicles.
The outcome was super positive as well! I managed to see lions and a leoperd in just one day!!

Excellent!!! Animated and very friendly!
Was a great trip with top notch guides/drivers. Saw some things I had not seen before when on Safaris. I would highly encourage anyone considering a trip to Uganda/Murchison Falls to book it through these fine folks. You will NOT be disappointed!!!

Fun and incredible!
Twaha is incredibly professional and is a great communicator. He truly does whatever he can to make the tour as safe and enjoyable as possible. We went to Murchison Falls National park and it was nothing short of amazing. While no 2 game drives are alike, each one we went on (an afternoon/evening drive and a sunrise drive) was just as awesome as the last. They love to answer questions and will tell you anything you'd like to know about the area, the wildlife, or their work in general. Highly highly highly recommend utilizing Wild Jungle Trails for an experience you will never forget!

Best of Africa with the support of an serious and very friendly and helpful safari agency
It was our first time in Africa and at the beginning of our planning, we were not sure if Wild Jungle Trails will full fill all our wishes, but we can say everything got fine. The communication was very easy and Teresa from the agency answered all our emails as soon as possible. The organisation of the Safari tour was well prepared und the accommodation wonderful and better than we had expected. During our Safaria we were guided from Fred. He is one of the most professional and friendliest guide ever .
Many thanks to Fred!
I can recommend to anyone this Agency. If we would come back to Uganda sometimes (and I hope so), I am sure that we will organize the next trip also with Wild Jungle Trails.
Thanks to all members of the team especially Teresa und Fred for two fabulous and amazing weeks in Uganda! :):):)

Excellent Safari Adventure
We had a group of 10. We took an evening sunset game drive and an early morning sunrise game drive. Both were exceptional. We saw a lot of wildlife - elephants, giraffes, lion, lioness, hippos etc. Our guides did a good job of explaining different parts of the the trip. Our group has used this company and Twaha and we keep going back to them. This was my first time with this crew - I can see why we continue to use them. Their service is awesome! I would highly recommend them!
