Fantastic Wildlife Watching Experience
Everything was well organised & ran seamlessly. Buffalo Safaris surpassed my expectations. A wonderfully rich and diverse wildlife watching experience whilst taking in the Pearl of Africa’s ever changing landscapes, cultural depth and magical skies. Felt very safe and looked after & the camps were very comfortable & the food was delicious.
I can it recommend the safari up to the Gorillas enough. It’s was a dream to see them & great to know that the eco tourism is conserving the region and its inhabitants for Uganda and the generations to come.
Thanks again Buffalo Safaris. This really was the trip of a lifetime.

Brilliant service from Buffalo Safari - knowledgeable, friendly and looked after us very well!
Safari surpassed expectations, amazing landscape and wildlife. Explanations and information from Eri our driver added a lot to our experience. Felt safe and comfortable throughout, and had a great time.

Incredible especially when the gorilla family come to you by the roadside?
The whole booking process was very streamlined from regular communications with Dan, to extensive experience and knowledge from Roger our driver / tour guide. The accommodation was great for glamping! The stops numerous if requested the scenery picturesque, with plenty of wildlife and towns to view. Overall a great experience in the beautiful Uganda. The best part was not having to walk far to see the gorillas they came to us!

Epic 13 day journey around Uganda
Libby has already reviewed this trip, but I'd like to add my appreciation of the whole experience. Uganda was incredibly interesting and Emma added to our enjoyment with lots of local knowledge and insights, and I'm sure his good nature helped to keep us on track and on schedule. His skills and know-how most likely also prevented unexpected mechanical delays with the vehicle. It was a very enjoyable trip and everyone got along very well. Would recommend Buffalo Safari Camps to anyone wanting a tailored tour of this beautiful country.
Top tour - value for money, safe driving and a knowledgeable guide as well.
Just completed a two week safari with Buffalo Safari Camps and wanted to share what a fantastic experience it was. Our guide and driver, Emma, did a fabulous job in taking us on a full circuit of Uganda, while taking account of our interests and needs. We always felt safe with his driving (not something to be taken for granted in Uganda), things ran to time and he provided some great insights during our travels. Buffalo put together a full itinerary for us with all accommodation, meals and activities included. We had specialist guides in each of the parks and other attractions and found the whole experience to be an excellent one. Would definitely recommend their services.

Fantastic experience and excellent guide.
Our family of 2 adults and 3 children visited Murchison Falls with Buffalo Safari Camps in July. We had a fantastic time. Our guide Emma was extremely knowledgable and friendly and we all really enjoyed his company for the 3 days. We stayed at Murchison Treehouse where the food and accommodation were great. The morning safari drive was the highlight of the trip and we also loved the boat trip and hike up the falls. We booked the trip at short notice with the help of Dan who was quick to respond to our queries. I will definitely recommend Buffalo Safari Camps to friends or family visiting Uganda.

Budget Safari to Murchison Falls
Buffalo Safari Camps came highly recommended from friends who live in Uganda and used their services. Our experience was top notch from booking, to game drives, visiting the falls all the way thru our return to the airport in Entebbe. Our guide Emma was fun loving and helpful, he made everyone from my wife to out youngest son feel comfortable, safe and excited all at the same time. His knowledge and flexibility made the trip an outstanding - once in a lifetime experience. If you have the opportunity - I highly recommend staying in the park. We stayed at Pakuba Lodge and our travel time was greatly reduced. Tim built an excellent literary for us that hit every highlight in the area in just 3 days. If your looking for a budget friendly family adventure with the feel of a private experience, Buffalo Safari Camps Budget Safari to Murchison Falls is a great choice.

Amazing scenery and animals
Tim was so easy to work with and easy to communicate. We did a 4 day excursion including a rhino trek, chimpanzee trek, 2 game drives and 2 river cruises. Emma was our driver and guide. He was fantastic. We were able to find lots of animals (lions, giraffe, elephants, hippos, etc...). Absolutely zero stress for the whole trip. Emma took care of everything. Rhino and chimpanzee trek were spectacular to be that close to these amazing creatures. Lodging was such a relaxing part of trip. Amuka Lodge for one night and Bakers Lodge for 3. Bakers lodge was so, so nice. The staff were incredible. Right on the Nile, hippos just in front of our cabin in the water. The food was first rate. All in all a wonderful experience. Tim and his team do it Right!!!

Queen Elizabeth Mweya Lodge Trip
I just did a safari to Queen Elizabeth National Park with Buffalo Safari Camps last week. It was one of the best and most relaxing trips I’ve been on in a long time. They arranged everything for us from the rooms to the game drives and boat rides. All we had to do was show up! Our main goal was to see the lions. On our first game drive in the early morning we didn’t see any. Our guide with Buffalo Safari Camps, Emma, said we should try the afternoon since it was colder and rainy. He said because of the weather the lions would be moving. Sure enough when we went on the afternoon game drive we did we saw lions! Their guides were very knowledgeable and were extremely friendly. I have already told people about this company and have already booked other people to use them. If I am ever doing a trip in Uganda they will be the only ones I use!

The best travel experience I had!
I went on the 4 days trip, Queen Elizabeth Park and gorillas tracking, I saw beautiful landscapes and animals, a lot of unforgetable things.
Accomodations and food were very good, and our guide, Sunday, was just great, I thank him again for everything!
