Great experience with a warm, friendly guide for a very reasonable price!
We found Buffalo Safari through a recommendation given by a friend who's lived in Uganda for a number of years. Couldn't have been happier with the experience we had, and given how reasonable the price is compared to many bigger tour operators in the country from our research (and in light of some of the horror stories we'd heard about some of the budget operators), we would happily recommend them to travelers looking for a fun trip!
We got a custom trip (put together by the very pleasant British owner at the last minute) to Queen Elizabeth National Park, Bwindi to see the Gorillas, and Lake Bunyonyi to round it off. Despite being a packed schedule, our brilliant guide always ensured we did everything planned, whilst giving us some flexibility to stay in some places a bit longer when we requested.
I've been on safaris/tours in 5 countries now and this is one of the best experiences I've had thus far - highly recommended!
An amazing safari with a great company
The safari was everything we were promised and more. The driver and chef were both brilliant, friendly and made sure everything went well. Buffalo Safari Camps communicated well with us throughout the build up to the safari too, making sure we were prepared and knew what what to expect

Just sit back and enjoy!
We went for a camping safari to Kidepo NP. As soon as we got into the safari vehicle, we were on a real holiday. Everything as agreed was provided. The staff, a driver and a cook, were fantastic. Knowing how to deal with three women; humor and care. It was a camping safari but our tents were set up and ready when we got back from a safari. Drinks offered and we could enjoy our time around the campfire. Meanwhile the food got prepared and table set, we only had to move to the table to have our delicious meals. Not much to do with camping: going on safari with Buffalo Safari Camps is far more than that! We really enjoyed our time.

Amazing safari
The communication before the trip was good! Everything was arranged and all locations for the night were clear. The safari was what we expected: amazing!

Exceptional service for large group bookings and of course an incredible safari!
Tim and his team at Buffalo Safari Camps (BSC) provide our volunteering teams an exceptional experience every single time. BSC are able to manage group bookings ensuring that everyone has a personalised experience which they will never forget. The team always go the extra mile to make sure the clients needs are meet and exceeded. The activities on the safari speak for themselves, seeing animals in the wild is always an incredible experience but for us the great organisational and tailored experience is what makes Buffalo Safari Camps the best Safari company to go with.
An experience I will never forget
Buffalo Safari Camps organised a tailor made trip for me and my friends to go to Kidepo National Park. I have been on many safaris before but this one was by far the best. We had an amazing chef who cooked us up some delicious food, we drove all across the park to find the amazing animals who live within and also just to experience the vast landscape. Every part of the trip was fabulous including the long drive up to Kidepo, the guides became part of the trip and joined in on all the fun we had along the way. The booking process was equally easy and great. I could not recommend Buffalo Safari Camps more.
Awesome safari, Fantastic guide and decent price
Have been on a lot of safaris over the year and always wanted to do a Northern Uganda Kidepo/ Murchison falls/ Sipi falls trip. Buffalo Safari's took care of everything from picking us up at the airport to making sure we had coldish beers when needed! The parks were amazing, accommodation brilliant and the cook we had from Buffalo was really friendly, made amazing food and even managed with our teams hard dietary issues! Would strongly recommend these parks, especially bush camping in Kidepo and will always use Buffalo when in Uganda.

One in a lifetime experience
Everything was incredibly easy, they handled everything for us, food, transport, accommodation literally everything. Our driver was very nice, very good English and knew so much about the country and everything we went to see. Could not have been a better trip

Amazing experience. Perfectly organisated, accommodated every need. Great company to deal with.
The safari was very well planned and everything went accordingly. Buffalo safaris fulfilled my many requests at a very reasonable price. Great communication and very helpful. Great company to deal with. The safari lived up to expectations and more. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and experienced, very friendly and fun. This was my 4th safari and by far the best in every way, food, accommodation, vehicle, experience. Highly recommend Tim and buffalo safaris.

4 day Safari
Great trip with Buffalo Safari! We went out as a group of 3, and our driver provided excellent knowledge of the country and went out of his way to ensure we were well looked after. We elected to camp throughout the trip and were taken to some amazing locations off the beaten pathway that really gave the feel of an adventure holiday.
We went to see the mountain gorillas which was a once in a lift time experience, and came up close and personal with the beautiful animals.
