Fantastic time in Uganda with Budget Safaris Uganda
I had an amazing time in Uganda, the pearl of Africa, with Peter and Andrew. Travelling alone as a single female, the trip was perfectly tailored to fit in everything I wanted to see and do, even my Compassion sponsor child visits. I had a great time travelling across the country as we trekked the Gorillas at Bwindi Impenetrable forest, saw lots of game including lions, elephants and giraffes at Murchison Falls, saw the source of the Nile at Jinja and just everywhere that we travelled, all the activities that had been arranged and the people I met along the way.
It wasn't just a great holiday - I fell in love with Uganda as they showed me their beautiful country and the beautiful hearts of the Ugandan people.
I began the tour as a client, I finished the tour as a friend.
I definitely recommend Budget Safaris Uganda to anyone travelling to Uganda.

Great experience
In one word - Amazing! We started in Kampala and headed to Bwindi, we saw the Gorillas along with other small primates, it was spectacular to see the Gorillas so close.. After Bwindi we journeyed to Queen Elizabeth where we saw lots of Lions and hippos! Loved the accommodations, felt like we were taken care of in every way. A trip of a lifetime and all arranged by the caring staff at Budget Safaris. They asked what we wanted to do, listened to all our requests and made it happen for us. Such a smooth trip from start to finish.....

Great tour company, all the guys are very professional and looked after our every need
Myself and my wife travelled on a 5 day tour which included visits to Murchison Falls National Park and Bwindi Forest. Uganda is a beautiful country wrapped around the equator, it has an extraordinary landscape. We found the people to be extremely friendly and enjoyed many conversations with locals along the way. Our tour leader Peter had arranged visits along the way, they included stop offs at villages and schools to meet the real people of Uganda, we found this gave us some of the greatest insights into Ugandan culture.
Budget Safaris are a great company, they over delivered on everything.it was just perfect! We hope to come back and visit in 2015 except this time to do a 10 day tour.

Excellent Experience - Highly Recommend!
Myself and two friends took a 7 day safari with Budget Safaris, we went with this tour company after receiving a recommendation from a friend who travelled with them last year.
Our first stop was Murchison Falls National Park, it was a beautiful park and one of the best I have been to in East Africa. Our driver Peter provided us with excellent opportunities to take lots of great photos, he was patient and made us feel very comfortable throughout the tour, we never felt like we were being rushed anywhere, it was great.
After Murchison Falls we went to Chimpanzee trekking in Queen Elizabeth National Park, it was a great experience made even better by the easy to follow tracks.The following day we went on a boat cruise and saw lots of hippos and crocodiles both in the water and on the shore. That evening while the sun was setting we set out on an evening game drive and saw lots of wildlife, the sun setting in the background was a bonus. It was beautiful.
Bwindi was our next stop, our permits allowed us entry into the south entrance of the park. All the park guides were very helpful during the treks. After some time trekking we were with the Gorillas, it was amazing to see how the interact with one another, we were amazed at how close we were to these beautiful creatures. They don't call it one of the greatest animal encounters on the planet for nothing!
We selected budget accommodation for the duration of our tour and all accommodations were more than adequate, clean rooms with hot showers and most lodges had Wi-Fi :) The trip passed without one incident. Budget Safaris vehicle was in excellent condition to handle the tracks in the parks. I highly recommend Budget Safaris for the outstanding service they provided at a VERY reasonable price.

Friendly and experienced tour operator specialized in Uganda
My trip to Uganda was great! Budget's head guide showed us all the highlights of Uganda and explained a lot about the country. Overall we had a very well organised trip to Uganda, with the best guide you can have, we didn't have to do anything except relax and enjoy. Great wildlife and nature. A great African experience!

Amazing Safari!
We travelled from Dubai to Uganda to celebrate the New Year! We were a group of 4 International teachers,we had a fantastic time on Safari with Budget. Budgets service was quick and accurate and very accommodating; we worked with Peter who was exceptional and provided us numerous options. I had reached out to other tour operators but we found Budget Safaris to be the most flexible operator and the price was really good too! Our guide knew exactly where to go to find the animals and we were always one of the first to arrive and had a great viewing spot which gave us lots of great photo opportunities. I would definitely recommend Budget Safaris!

This trip had everything, from visiting the gentle giants in Bwindi, getting within 10 feet of a lion pride in Queen Elizabeth Park or exploring the Volcanic lakes on foot with breath taking views.
