Five days of well-organized fun
I've traveled in Africa before, but have never actually done a multi-day safari with a touring company, so I wasn't entirely sure what to expect when Paul (Sunshine) picked my sister and I up at our hotel in Kampala. We needn't have worried -- our tour with Paul was excellent, and I would recommend Home to Africa to anyone looking for a well-organized, fairly priced, and thoughtfully delivered trip.
The planning process (conducted solely via email) kept us well-informed, and Paul continued that during our trip, making sure we knew what to expect each day (e.g., lots of travel, or an early morning to get to the park at sunrise). Our activities were a lot of fun. Paul himself is a delight -- he offered interesting information about parts of Uganda and Ugandan culture during our long drives, and was incredible at spotting animals when we were in the park. The night before our gorilla trekking, Paul gave us a very good idea of what to expect the next morning.
The accommodations that Home to Africa selected for us were wonderful -- both the proprietors and other guests were friendly and kind. All in all, the trip exceeded my expectations.
Thank you to Edward, Elias, and especially Paul for making our trip memorable for all the right reasons. :)

a great company the best safari
Our trip to Uganda with Home To Africa Tours and Travel was great: We had a very nice guide, Paul, My wife was really thrilled as it was her first time in Africa. Paul told us a lot about the country and the people of Uganda. He was a very good driver, too. We tracked chimpanzees and gorillas – All the lodges suggested were awesome and meals were as we requested. The safari was worth the pay . Thank you Elias for the great work . We will surely return . We highly recommend this company to the next travellers .

my new holiday destination
I visited Uganda with my husband and We had a wonderful time in Uganda! Thanks to Home To Africa Tours and Travel.
The trip and all the tours have been well organized. Our accommodations were much better than we had expected as well as the meals we could enjoy.
But much more important to us was a Guide Paul was knowledgeable and with vast experience. This was a deep and emotional experience. We never made it without him. We highly recommend Home To Africa Tours and Travel

Choose "Home to Africa"!
Edward, Elias, and Paul were exceptionally helpful, both before and during the tour. We did a three-day safari, and our driver, Paul, was knowledgeable about the wildlife and did a good job of preparing us with information before each stage of the tour. With over a decade of leading tours, Paul's experience showed. Edward was responsive and helpful in setting up the tour, answering emails promptly and organizing a trip to a school in Jinja to provide humanitarian service. Elias was present before and after the tour, to make sure our questions were answered to our satisfaction.
Some tour companies make you feel like they only want your money. Home to Africa Tours and Travel make you feel like they want you to come back.

Fabulous organization, communication and service!
Home to Africa Tours and Travel is a first class safari and travel tour operation company! From the moment I sent my first email inquiring about their services to the last drop off to Entebbe International Airport, everything they did exceeded my expectations. The organization and communication were always efficient and top notch; including answering my questions in a timely manner, providing sufficient details to the days' itineraries and meeting safari schedules. Our guide, Paul, was friendly, knowledgeable and fun to be around. The accommodations, food and transportation were also fantastic! The best thing about Home to Africa Tours and Travel company is that it gives back to the community of Uganda by giving a portion of its safari fees to help a school in Buwenge, Jinge. It is not just a company providing great tours of Uganda, it is a company looking out for the future of Ugandan children. (One of the favourite parts of our holiday was spending a day with the school's administrators and children, in addition to bringing donated school supplies for them.) Thank you Home to Africa Tours and Travel for making our Ugandan memories so special!
Thank you for being understanding
Unfortunately due to personal emergency, we had to cancel our tour to Uganda from the US. Edward and his team were very understanding and had meticulous follow up. The attention to detail and communication during the planning process was exceptional but to see this service after we cancelled is rare in a company.
We hope to reschedule soon.
Excellent Customer Service
Home to Africa Tours and Travel was one of the most accommodating operators I have worked with. I received prompt emails and communications and excellent customer service in regards to customizing my tour with personalized needs. Edward and his team were completely professional and respectful, and I very much appreciated all of their hospitality and support.
