Excellent 3 days in Queen Elizabeth National Park
I contacted Saso Safaris Uganda only a few days before I wished to make a 3 day trip to Queen Elizabeth National Park. Wilson replied to my enquiry very quickly and was able to provide a quote which was within my budget and which included a number of activities and services; including accommodation, meals, game drive, boat trip and chimp tracking. Their price was very competitive compared to some others.
Because l was a single traveler, l felt a little bit scared to travel with a strange guide for 3 days. I found the guide/client relationship a little awkward and formal at times. Luckily my guide understood this quickly and so we had a very relaxed relationship. At the same time, both of us were extremely professional, thoughtful and worked hard to make my experience perfect.
The boat ride on the Kazinga channel was a great way to see a range of animals really close up and the guide was extremely knowledgeable about them. The chimp tracking was incredible; walking in the forest with a guide and spending an hour with the chimps once you have located them. All in all it was an unforgettable trip which was made fun, easy, safe and affordable by Great thanks to My Guide and Saso Uganda Safaris!

Best Trip Ever
Saso Uganda Safaris was our tour operator for my husband and my first Safari in Rwanda. We had the best experience and the best trip of our lives. We knew Rwanda was the place to be, but this was above all expectations.
The place is magical, but what makes a good trip is who you deal with, and this company was so professional from the beginning to the end. Always there to answer all our questions, very friendly, suggesting what they think is best for us, and making us feel comfortable through the whole process. Our guide was fantastic, the food was good everywhere we went and the lodges were even better than we expected.
Welldone Saso!!

Unforgettable Honey Moon
My husband and I, spent two wonderful weeks in Uganda and Rwanda, all arranged by Saso Uganda Safaris. This trip has certainly become a trip of my lifetime. Gorilla tracking in Uganda was extremely wonderful. The guide Kasim, was very motivating and keeping it positive in challenging moments like Gorilla tracking.
As for safari all I can say, had an amazing time. We took 5 day safari to Nyungwe, Volcanoes National Park, and Lake Kivu in Rwanda after touring Uganda. All parks are beautiful, but Bwindi was the place worth staying for days and if I come back I will choose to go double gorilla tracking for sure. Driver was funny, witty and informative with wildlife facts and safari stories.
Food on safari was also good and tasty, lunch boxes we received were very generous in size and portions in comparison what we saw with other people on picnic spots. For us this package was exactly what we wanted.

10 Adventure Safari in Uganda with Saso Uganda Safaris
Where do I start? Got Saso Uganda Safaris through I friend and everything went easy than I thought from booking to payment. More than enough information was given to us by Wilson a travel consultant.
We were warmly welcomed at the airport and transferred to a hotel in Kampala for our first night. Free transfer did humble us even more. Our guide has been great so far having been with him for 10 days, we confidently say he is the best.
Thanks Vincent. We have been to Murchison falls 2 nights, Kibale Forest camp for chimp tracking 2 nights, Queen Elizabeth NP 2 nights, Ishasha sector for a game drive to see the tree climbing lions 1 night “this was really amazing” and we are in our last night of 2 nights in Bwindi for gorilla tracking. We have had the best more than bargained. You did a great job Saso.

Awesome visit to Uganda National Parks
I visited Uganda with my friends during first week of March 18. The tour was very well organized by Saso Uganda Safaris. The tour manager Wilson is a very friendly and professional person. He made good plan for us on how to spend the 18days of our holiday in Uganda.
We visited all the national parks in Uganda but visiting Bwindi for gorilla tracking amazed us. Because of him our stay in Uganda was very comfortable. The tour guide was thorough professional and took lot of initiative to detect wild life during game drive. Saso Uganda Safaris made our trip an awesome experience.
Wilson the tour manager is a nice man. He is very responsible and taking the whole thing seriously. From the beginning, he gave us a very detailed plan and quickly answered with all the information we needed. We could feel he is much more serious than other safari operators we tried to talk with. The price was also better.

Saso Uganda Safari met all my requests, were professional and I had a nexcellent guide in the parks.
They were very accommodating, quick to respond to emails and provided excellent service. My guide, Dona Kasadha, was very knowledgeable, professional and helped me meet my goals for seeing specific species, including the shoebill. I would highly recommend Dona as a guide and Saso as a safari company.

The safari experience was Marvelous!
Our 20 days Uganda and Rwanda Safari was super luxury. We had a guide James that was also our driver. James was amazing, very kind and professional. We saw many animals from all kinds thanks to him and he could answer any question. He was also a very good driver, we felt safe. All the accommodations we were in were very good. Actually we were even surprise from the very good level and great service. All the accommodations were self-contained with hot water.
We continued for a 4 days stay in Rwanda, we trekked golden monkey in Volcanoes National Park, Hiked the Bisoke, visited Lake Kivu and crowned the safari with a Kigali city tour.
We can sum up and say that we strongly recommend Saso Uganda safari operator. Everything was perfect

Life Time Experiential
Visiting Uganda is a must in a lifetime and I would highly recommend everyone to see the beauty this country has. The Lake Mutanda lodge overlooking the Lake is such a magical experience. Thank you Saso Uganda Safaris for organising a flawless trip into the depths of Africa.

Our Visit in Uganda and Rwanda
Our safari with Saso Uganda Safaris was absolutely wonderful, we enjoyed every minute of it!
Kasim, our guide, was excellent. He is a fantastic wildlife spotter who will see the ear of a lion sticking out of the grass at 1 km distance - amazing! He was also extremely good in positioning our vehicle always in the best position for observing and photographing, meaning he was excellent in anticipating the animal's behavior.
Saso team always replied immediately to all our inquiries and changes of plan and this made it extremely easy for us. Thank you all for an overwhelming and unforgettable trip!!!

Visit Uganda
Thank you for the tour. Everything worked good. The driver (Kassim) was very nice and helpful. (Hopefully he had a good time as well.) During the tour some of the acitivies did not work out. For example the boat tour on Lake Mburo was skipped. But that did not matter at all. I did see so many things. Was lucky with lots of the animals. The hotels were good too. A lot better than expected. Thank you again.
