Our guide, Karim, was exceptional!
5/5

There aren’t enough superlatives to describe how wonderful this 6-day tour was. From our pre-trip communications to our last hugs with Karim, our experience with the Home to Africa team was exceptional. They worked with us to design a trip that met the various needs and dreams of our family of five. It surpassed our expectations! And Karim - tour guide extraordinaire! He continually went above and beyond. For instance, at one of the lodges there was no electric in our cozy, lovely tent cabin. My husband uses a CPAP machine to sleep at night. While we were sitting in the lodge sipping wine in front of a roaring fire and listening to live, native music before dinner, Karim and a staff member were running a cable and power strip through the woods down to our cabin so my hubby could plug in his machine! If you are looking to book a safari, please, look no further. You won’t be sorry. And ask for Karim!!!!

Trip of my dream
5/5

Well, Africa was always a big dream of mine. Before the trip it was very exciting and I was worried about everything. But the main question was, not even a question, but request ))) let the guide be adequate and sweet

Very knowledgeable and had us in animals everyday day
5/5

Our guide Brian was extremely knowledgeable, and we saw the big five in 24 hours. Saw 4 leopards, too many lions to count, giraffes, 100’s of elephants including a bull Elephant who was charging! The lodges were great and the food was very good. Communication was good and the purchasing process went very easy. Everything was as described. The only hiccup was the vehicle could have been better. One window didn’t work, and the pop up top needed some work. Not the fault of Brian, he was awesome. Even the minor issues with the vehicle could have not have taken away from our amazing safari. 100% recommended them.

Very reliable tour operator.
Precise, punctual, available at all stages of the journey.
Before leaving, they follow you and give you all the necessary information, also giving availability to customize the trip as you prefer.
During the trip our guide (Chris) was great.
Kind, helpful, very knowledgeable. he has passed on to us all the passion he has in his work, in his land and in his culture.
Thanks for this wonderful experience.
Highly recommended

Home to Africa was great!
5/5

My father, fiance, and I went on the Gorilla Trekking safari with Home to African and had an amazing time! Home to Africa also organized for my dad and me to raft on the White Nile River, which was a great time, too. Karim, our driver/guide throughout Uganda was so incredibly kind and knowledgeable, we wish we would have had more time with him. The gorilla trekking experience was downright incredible and went so smoothly. Just be prepared for some rigorous hiking through the Impenetrable Forrest. The value for everything was also outstanding and very reasonable. We cannot recommend Karim and Home to Africa enough!

Karim was extremely kind and helpful, stopping at nothing to ensure our satisfaction.
5/5

Home to Africa provided excellent value for the money we paid. Our guide/driver Karim was outstanding. The biggest mistake I made was not following his advice when he suggested using wooden walking sticks rather than the titanium ones I brought. The modern ones both snapped in 10 minutes. Fortunately, I did follow Karim's advice in hiring a porter who helped me get down and up the jungle mountain on the gorilla trekking tour. Seeing the gorillas was one of the biggest thrills in my life. The hotels and food were also excellent.

Exceeded expectations and bent over backwards to meet our every need and request!
5/5

We would highly recommend this company without reservations. Everything as promised and more! One reason I chose this company is it was the only one that had all their security settings set correctly and made it through my work email without getting caught in spam or junk email. There was excellent communication and no surprises. While we didn't know what to expect, we were impressed with the accomodations as we traveled with 6 of us and they had 3 rooms reserved at every location--I expected we were all going to try to cram into one room--so it was great that we had more privacy. Our guide, William, become our friend and we miss him.

Safari bookings was a great way to get competive bids and I would also highly recommend them.

Thank you for your service!

World Class tour operator with good planning and very good driver/guide.
5/5

The trip was a tailor made trip:

6-Day, 5 Nights Trip to Uganda
Wildlife Sighting Including Gorilla Trekking
KIBALE NP | QUEEN ELIZABETH NP| ISHASHA | BWINDI NP | LAKE BUNYONYI

A thoroughly fantastic trip with a super driver/guide Peter. Very pleasant and friendly, really good and considerate driver with great knowledge of the flora and fauna.
He is highly recommend and so is “Home to Africa”.

The total drive was near 1500 km of which 500 km on very dusty roads.
It is recommended to ask for an A/C safari car if affordable and possible.

Exceptionally good lodges selected underway. 4-5*:

Isunga Lodge, Twin Lakes Safari Lodge, Haven Lodge Buhoma and Arcadia Lodge Bunyonyi.

The Chimpanzee and the Gorilla tracking were World ClLeifass experiences.
