Professionalism and competence
It was a very rewarding and fantastic tour with Home to Africa. Everything was extremely well organised, and both drivers/guides, Emir in Rwanda and Vianney in Uganda are very knowledgeable, communicative, professional and above all, very friendly and nice. They made the whole trip even more pleasant. It was a wonderful travel, and for sure I will get in contact with Home To Africa again the next time I will travel to Eastern Africa. Thanks!

Derrick was AMAZING, fun, knowledgeable and professional
From the beginning when booking our tour the communication was exceptional and seamless. All information you need was provided and if you had any additional questions their speed at replying was next to none. We booked the 5-Day Wildlife Sighting Trip to Uganda Including Gorilla Trekking for our Honeymoon and it was a truely magical and breathtaking experience. Every accommodation we stayed at went above and beyond (thanks to Derrick letting them know it was our honeymoon), hot water, food, staff, all were amazing. The safaris were amazing thanks to our guide Derrick going above and beyond. It was awesome and would 100% recommend using this company - value for money and was great to just be my husband and myself. It’s a once in a lifetime experience!

Professional service made the trip go smooth and give me an even better experience than I hoped for.

As good as it gets!
Communication was excellent from the first to the last email. Our guide Gunn is a super driver and a good spotter of animals. We had no problems whatsoever during our tour of 12 days. Nice lodges and wonderful places we visited. We would definitely book through this tour operator again.

Professional, competent and available
I have just come back from a wonderful trip to Uganda with my son and we still have in our heart the wonderful sensations that the Pearl of Africa was able to give us. We experienced fascinating things like the Murchison Falls or the close encounter with chimpanzees in Kibale Forest, but the most exciting experience was definitely the visit to the mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable. The hour spent in the company of these gentle cousins of ours is something we will never forget. To organize the trip we evaluated a whole series of local operators and in the end we decided to rely on Home to Africa Tours and Travel: a truly apt choice. The organization was perfect and the support provided to us by Hedmond was punctual and competent in suggesting us the most convenient itinerary and extremely helpful and patient in listening to and satisfying our every need. A Tour Operator that we absolutely recommend.

The Perfect Honeymoon- Highly Recommend Home to Africa and William :-)
My husband and I had the most incredible honeymoon in Uganda by booking a 6 Day African Safari and Gorilla Trekking with Home to Africa. Our guide, William, made it such a memorable experience for us. He arranged lots of surprises for us during the trip, with our accommodation decorated in petals, a celebratory honeymoon cake and a private candle lit dinner out in the trees; we truly could not have asked for anything more.
Every one of the lodges we visited were in the most amazing settings and all of the staff were so friendly and helpful. Uganda truly has the most beautiful scenery that either of us had ever seen. We were having such an amazing time on our tour that we asked William to extend it by one more day and I only wish we could have done more. My advice to anyone booking this would be to take more time at each of the lodges, as each of them have their own special qualities and there is so much to experience.
We were both very excited about the gorilla trekking and it still exceeded our expectations. Words cannot describe what it is like being up so close to these magnificent animals. I just wish we could do it all over again.
All of the nature and wildlife in Uganda is fantastic. As keen birders we were trying to find as many new species as we could on our trip and again William was a great help to us with this. His expertise coupled with the assistance of the knowledgeable staff at each location helped us see over 150 new species within a week. With over 1100 species in Uganda, anyone interested in birds will not be disappointed.
We both highly recommend this trip to anyone considering it and want to say one last massive thank you to William for giving us such a special and memorable honeymoon, with memories that we will treasure forever.

Very helpful, professional and friendly
We did an 8 day tour with Home to Africa. It was very easy to communicate with them and they were very forthcoming, helpful and reliable.
Our tour was a unique and once in a lifetime experience. It was very well organised, all the road trips were very smooth, the national parks and lodges were amazing and the hospitality was superb.

Perfect 11 day tour
I went on a 11 day tour around Uganda, with serveral nationalparks and of course chimpanses and gorillas.
Karim was a perfect guide and we had many interesting talks about the animals and Uganda.
Karim is also a very good driver and the lodges were also very nice.
If I come back to Uganda with my family I Will definetly go with Home to Africa and ask for Karim as my guide.

Wonderful trip thanks to them
It was a huge success to book our 8-day safari with them, they helped us from the first moment to have everything we needed for our trip, but the best part was yet to come and that was meeting our guide Derrick who is a fun, cheerful and He loves his job and shows it in every moment of the safari you spend with him. Without a doubt, the best thing we could choose was Home to Africa with Derrick!
Every second of this safari was truly wonderful!!

Great and trusted tour operator in Uganda
We did a 7D/6N Safari with Home To Africa and fell in love with Uganda!
Our guide, William, was very friendly, helpful, flexible and knowledgeable and we really enjoyed the safari with him.
The accomodations we had in Kibale (1N), Queen Elizabeth (2N), Bwindi (2N) and Lake Mburo (1N) did never feel like being budget accomodations (as stated in the itinerary) and were excellent, far more than we expected and nothing at all to complain about. Food was very good as well.
The optional tour in Kibale (Crater Lake) was very good. However, we would not go for the cultural tour in Bwindi again.
When time and money allows, we will definitely come back - hopefully again with William as guide :)
