They truly care about you!
This is the 3rd trip our family has taken with this company and could not be more pleased! They go out of their way to accommodate your needs, meet your requests, exceed your expectations, tailor the trip to your desires. Both times we made special requests to alter the itinerary and change the accommodations and both times they were more than happy to grant our requests. They hire such amazing staff that we bonded with our driver the first time and always request him for future trips. They truly feel like family and keep everything at such a personal level that we consider them friends. But yet they run their business at the highest professional standards! You always feel like you are in such good hands, being taken care of every step of the way. We have young children, and we were so impressed with how they constantly had our children in mind and paid attention to so many little details (toilet paper in the van for roadside emergency bathroom stops, cold water in the cooler at all times, etc.) Angel would call multiple times throughout our trip to check on how things were going; such attentiveness and genuine care that we were having a positive experience and if there was anything we needed along the way. They have such good hearts and exemplify Christian values! SUCH a phenomenal company to work with!

Personalised service with deep knowledge of Kampala, surrounding areas and game parks
Angel worked with me for several months beforehand to plan the detailed itinerary our immersion trip - one that we've done for 8 years now and keep coming back to Adventure Expeditions (though this was my first). No detail or question I asked seemed to be too small. Once I and the team arrived, we all bonded very quickly with Angel and our primary driver, Remmy. They were flexible to adjust the timing of the itinerary each day based on the needs of the team. And, once we got to the game parks (Murchison Falls, Ziwa Rhino Park) - we were even more impressed by Remmy's deep expertise regarding the animals and plants. We'll definitely be coming back.

Incredible Experience
I’ve been on two safaris with Adventure Expeditions and both have been incredible! While both safaris were to Murchison Falls NP, each was its own experiences. The vehicles are comfortable and good for seeing game, the lodging is excellent, and the drivers have been amazing. They are professional, friendly, fun, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable! Adventure Expeditions utilizes your time the best and makes sure you maximize your experience. From little things like telling you where to sit on the river boat, to making sure that you are on the first ferry, AE truly takes the best care of you and gives you a top notch experience. I can’t recommend them enough!

Informative, fun, interactive!
Overall it was just an awesome experience. New Hope set everything up for us, but the driver was fantastic and the tour was amazing. We plan on doing it again next year when we are in the country and bringing others with us.

Very knolegeable about the wildlife, trees and vegitation. A pleasant personality.
Best tour I have been on...3rd time in 14 years.
We ran out of gas...the operator added fuel and engine would not start...the engine was misfiring on the way up to the falls. We drifted into shore right on top of hippos and their young.
I noticed only one paddle which I requested... guide would not give it to me... we would have been safer in my opinion on the river than beached in close proximity to the hippos and their young. I watched and the hippos moved up the river a short way. They were grunting, stomping and warning us but their alarm level seemed to be decreasing. So remaining quiet seemed the next best option.
Our rescue boat showed up with another load of guests. Rather than throwing a toe line and pulling us out into the river, the operator pulled along side of us, tied off and partially beached a second boat load of customers. While we were being toed out into the river the other boat was stirring mud and rocks as we moved back into the river...I was totally surprised that they didn't shear a pin and disable a second boat.
I was on a boat with family and friends... a second boat load of people were put in jeopardy... I think that training would be in order for your operators....
Training and drills... how to handle the unexpected.
I am always on the side of the working man...great men, just add training and drills.
Sincerely,
Dale Leivestad

Boutique tour company provides ultimate in professional and personalized safari experience!
From our pick up in Luwero to our drop off in Kampala, guide Angel and driver Geoffrey treated us like family. They shared a wealth of knowledge about the area and wildlife, and wow did we see the animals! The accommodations and meals at the Parra Lodge were top-notch too. Cannot recommend this company enough!

Adventure Expeditions are adventure experts!
I cannot speak highly enough of Adventure Expeditions. The service from start to finish was faultless, and they really made the trip the success that it was. The guides were very professional, but the service went beyond this, as they were all so friendly, welcoming, and a joy to spend time with. They are so good at what they do, it wasn't like a 'tourist and tour guide' relationship, but more like we had some extra friends join us for our trip! I cannot thanks them or recommend them enough.
