Bwindi Gorillas is a must do! Absolutely Amazing Experience
My family had an amazing trip to Uganda thanks to Devine African Safaris. Nicholas the owner went above and beyond to ensure we had fun by organizing an itinerary that was tailored to our needs and wants.
Herbert, our guide, picked up the four of us from Kigali, Rwanda and drove us to Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest for gorilla trekking. My teenage boys had a lot of questions that Herbert answered patiently. He was very informative on the culture of his people, We were booked at Mutanda Lake Resort, a beautiful place near Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest. The lodge is gorgeous and has incredible views of the forest, hills and the lake around it.
In the morning, we went gorilla trekking in the forest. It was an amazing experience. We were amazed to see the gorillas up close. We had so much fun that they could not stop talking about the gorillas. Herbert facilitated the trek assisted by the forest rangers and he was an excellent guide. We had magical views that were unforgettable along the trek.
The next day, we visited Queen Elizabeth National Park where we saw lots of animals including a rare sighting of a leopard crossing the road, elephants with their young, buffaloes, lions on trees, giraffes, and many more animals. The boat ride in Kazinga channe was another awesome experience, riding close to hippos and watching abundant wildlife on the banks of the channel. We did not want to leave and our only regret was that we should have booked a longer safari.
Thank you super guide Herbert and Devine African Safaris who gave us an experience we will never forget.

Devine African Safaris was the best decision I made
Choosing Devine African Safaris was the best decision I made. Boaz, my guide, picked me up from the Kigali international airport and transferred me to my Lemigo hotel. The actual safari started the following day with our drive towards Bwindi forest- home to some of the last remaining mountain gorillas. Boaz was knowledgeable about the culture, flora and fauna in East Africa. He was so easy to talk to that we became friends. He also could not stop talking about his country, Uganda. He told me about the people there, and the best sites to visit while I was there.
We also visited Queen Elizabeth and Kibale National Parks which are lovely attractions with a wide variety of land & water animals as well as birds.
During our trip we stayed at lovely hotels booked by Devine African Safaris. The hotels were comfortable and provided breakfast. We were always on time, because of Boaz’s excellent professionalism. I couldn’t be happier with the company’s choice of hiring Boaz.
I highly recommend Devine African Safaris for any trip that you want to make.

Wonderful Honeymoon Trip
My husband and I went to Africa for our honeymoon. We visited Rwanda and Uganda with Devine African Safaris. I was so excited to go on that trip since I have never been to Africa. All my friends told me about how great Africa is and I couldn’t wait to see for myself. Devine African Safaris did not disappoint. I saw the greatness of Africa through the amazing trip that Devine African Safaris organized for us. Nicholas the director worked with to come up with a perfect itinerary.
Boaz was a perfect guide. The man is knowledgeable about everything in East Africa. He told us about the history, culture, and politics of the region. We learnt a lot from him. He was also so friendly and fun to be around that it made our honeymoon enjoyable. He was also professional and he couldn’t have given us better service. After 10 days with Boaz, he had become a close friend. We were sad to say good bye to him but we hope that we will see him on our next trip to Africa.
Devine African Safaris exceeded all my expectations. We couldn’t have chosen a better company. Our honeymoon was a memorable experience because of Devine African Safaris.

Lifechanging Experience
My wife and I went on a 4 day Golden Monkeys and Gorillas trekking tour in Rwanda for our second anniversary with Devine African Safaris. Nicholas the director guided us in creating an amazing itinerary to Akagera and Volcanoes National Parks.
Our guide, Boaz was knowledgeable, professional and courteous. Seeing the mountain gorillas for the first time was an awe-inspiring experience. We got more than we expected from our trip and we cannot thank Nicholas and Boaz enough for it. I would recommend Devine African Safaris to anyone looking for a reliable and professional agency in Rwanda.
Looking forward to next year for another life changing experience.

Trip of a lifetime
My two friends and I spent five days with Devine African Safaris exploring Uganda to savour the wildlife and particularly the mountain gorillas. I am beyond words from the wonderful service and care extended by our hosts Devine African Safaris and in particular Nicholas who handled our booking and Chris who was the exceptional guide for the trip. He made the trip interesting sharing his vast experience in the different locations that we visited (Bwindi, Kibale and Queen Elizabeth parks) and charming personality. We did see the gorillas, lions, elephant herds….. I recommend this company totally

Fantastic Trip With Devine African Safaris
My wife and I contacted Devine African Safaris who helped us plan a last minute trip to Kibale, Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi parks in Uganda . From our first communication with Nicholas I knew I was dealing with professionals from the prompt responses and detailed information on the various options. Chris was our driver for the 5 days trip and he was amazing. He did great in Queen Elizabeth and Kibale and also arranged a shorter gorilla trek as we are not very athletic.
We thank Nicholas and Chris for our great experience in Uganda.

Fantastic Safari!! Highly Recommended
We are sharing our deep appreciation to Devine African Safaris for a great safari experience planned and executed with the highest professionalism. Communication via emails and whatsapp in the planning phase upto the time we arrived in Uganda was fast and efficient. Nicholas guided us in creating a great private itinerary for us that included game drives, boat ride, chimps and gorillas tracking. Basically all the great highlights of Uganda safari packed in short 5 days. Boaz was a fantastic guide, caring and keen to satisfy our needs and requests on the safari. We had a great Jeep for the 4 of us and even had space for another 2 and Boaz took us from Entebbe through the parks up to Bwindi for gorillas and back to Entebbe. We loved the lodges selected for us, they were all top notch resting spots; great ambience, wonderful food and comfortable sleeping quarters. I highly recommend Devine African Safaris for Ugandan Safaris

Wow!!! We just had the best trip of our lives
It was not easy planning our Gorilla Trekking and Safari trip without knowing anyone in Uganda as there are many operators to choose from. We did a bit of research and zeroed on Devine African Safaris because of the rave reviews they had on various platforms, alsotimely communication with Nicholas. He also gave us a great deal for the mid-range accommodation package. He did a perfect job of organizing our safari with Herbert as tour guide and driver. We had a wonderful experience where we saw plenty of animals in the parks. Gorillas trekking in Bwindi forest was awesome. You cannot go wrong with Devine African Safaris. These guys are professionals!

Wonderful Insight to The Pearl of Africa
After many emails and whattapp calls with Nicholas we finally came up with an amazing 6 days itinerary to Uganda to do safari and gorillas tracking. This trip with Boaz was an eye opener on how conservation works wonders in preserving rare gorillas, chimps and other wildlife in Uganda. Game and boat rides inside the protected areas yielded close encounters with the African big 5, many birds and the unique opportunity to track gorillas in Bwindi forest. We stayed in comfortable lodges that were just as described in the itinerary. A big thank you to the Devine African Safaris for this wonderful safari to experience the Pearl of Africa.
