A day for GORILLA TREKKING- In Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.
5/5

We visited the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest during the tour package with Ngoni Safaris, staying at Mahogany Springs, five minutes from the park entrance. Sedrick at Ngoni Safaris organised our trip, which was to make special and celebrate my birthday and truly, what an amazing experience it was! The trip they made ran like clockwork and Sedrick was always quick to answer any queries, regarding the trip. Also, the staff at lodge, were the best. They looked after us so well and were always friendly and helpful. On the last night of tour, they sang a very special and African, happy birthday to me. The Gorilla Trekking was well organised with the help of wonderful park rangers. Of course, that was last but not least, the gorillas were breath taking. Our family group had no less than 5 babies. It doesn't get any better than that for me.
My advice to every other traveller planning to UGANDA, If you want to see Mountain gorillas, just make a contact to Sedrick at Ngoni Safais, go to The Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, you will not be disappointed!

A well planned and Wonderful tour to Kitgum Uganda
5/5

We did a 5 day tour out to Uganda’s Kidepo Valley National park with Ngoni Safaris, specially to see the gorillas. On very first day we were kicked off early morning from Kampala and after that we got lunch at Ziwa rhino’s sanctuary. From there we went to explore the African Savanna. The crossing of Great River Nile was amazing as we got the chance to encounter with the Rhinos and Hippos. During the whole trip we just adventure and adventure. The interaction with the local people of Karimojong was so interesting. Also we see some traditional tools, crafts and jewellery and the vigorous leaping dance was so joyful. At the end of tour, they arranged a special trip to the airport. Nelson was great in terms of answering all my questions in a timely manner and making sure everything was as I wanted. He is really such an honest, trustworthy guy.

Adventure in QENP
5/5

This is really a Huge park for a vast diversity of wildlife. We reached early about 6:30 am to see animals diversity and that are nocturnal. We managed to see the lions relaxing under trees and at a sudden he walked very close to our vehicle. We saw herds of Kob mating as well as water buck and cape buffalo. Saw a huge herd of hippos in water calling to each other as well as a lone hippo in a small pond who had been banished from the group. Also saw a few warthogs and Franklins. We only covered a very tiny portion of the park and saw lots of wildlife.
This was done just with the help of Ngoni Safaris as their great management.

Happy with our gorilla trek
5/5

We had an amazing gorilla trek to Bwindi, thanks to the services of Ngoni Safaris Uganda. Sedrick was always amazingly quick to answer emails and this reassured us that we would get a good service come the time. The gorilla permits were sorted quickly and again good communication when we sent the money transfers.

Our driver/guide Nelson was excellent. Despite the bumpy roads, he was a very safe driver and at no point did we feel unsafe. The car was really comfy and the journey passed quickly. Nelson was happy to stop for us to take photos and would point out passing game as we travelled.

The gorilla trek itself was an amazing experience. We only had to trek for about 2 hours to find them, so we had the afternoon free to chill out. The hour with the gorillas passed in a flash, but to make it memorable we have captured lots of photos and videos.

Seeing the gorillas is fantastic!
5/5

The staff at the Ngoni Safaris Uganda can made an amazing job of getting you up into the mountain to see gorillas. We had a 3-4 hour hike to get to them quit difficult it was but once you get to the gorillas you get 1 hour with them to watch them and have some photograph with them. There are available porters for hire to walk with you and help you navigate some of the harder parts of the hiking paths and also carry your luggage like lunch and water. They all are well worth it. They ask for $15 as a charge but really deserve $20. We had totally given to that, our total experience was over 3-days.

Thank you Ngoni Safaris for making these Vacations awesome
5/5

We had a wonderful time in Uganda with Sedrick. He was a great guide and very dependable. Very polite, extremely knowledgeable and always went out of his way to ensure that we had a great time. Sedrick met us at the airport and stayed with us for the next one week. As a result, we all of us spent a great deal of time with him and enjoyed his company immensely. He is passionate about the animals and Uganda and shares this with you throughout the trip.

5***** Safari with Ngoni Safaris!!
5/5

We've just arrived from the most amazing holidays ever: our first safari!!!
We prepared our game drives and accommodation with Ngoni Safaris that went far and beyond to meet our expectations. In well conditioned car and with our great guide - thank you Nelson! - we were able to see the big five and so many more! Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was overwhelming, Buhoma Kanungu and Kisoro left us in awe and the Kabale Uganda ... well... there are no words to express how excited we were! Food was good very good arranged fron company side and the lodges we they arranged were fine. Having a glass of champagne on the middle of the park, while the hyenas were walking around and a mongoose just passed under our room was an unforgettable experience!!
In the end, we left Uganda with just one thought in our minds to return ASAP! Till that Great Thanks to Ngoni Safaris..

Queen Elizabeth National Park showing a great wildlife
5/5

We visited Queen Elizabeth National Park during our two-week trip through Uganda and Rwanda. It is a beautiful park having just good the wildlife density as in places like Kenya, Tanzania, or Botswana. For this we want to strongly recommend visiting and supporting Ugandan wildlife conservation efforts. Wildlife populations here are recovering and the communities around the park are slowly discovering the benefits of responsible tourism. This Park is also famous for its tree-climbing lions, but while having trip, we don’t get the chance.
The Park is broadly split into two areas, the northern section (Kasenyi) and the southern section (Ishasha). We did manage to find some lions in Kasenyi (again on the ground, not in the trees) and were very lucky to find a leopard in Ishasha. It is apparently more common to find lions in the trees in Ishasha but they do also climb up into the cactus candelabras in Kasenyi.
This Park is surrounded by many human settlements. At the end of the day this will always goes on a challenge for the wildlife population. But with the support of tourists and the continuous commitment from the Ugandan Wildlife Authority and the Ugandan government more broadly this place will have a bright future ahead.

Awesome experience of gorilla safari
5/5

I had a wonderful experience with Ngoni Safaris right from the time of booking till the end of tour. Our travel consultant was very fast with the good knowledge and designed a very good 7 days trip to Uganda. The guide Sedrick was very friendly and helpful. Our stay at the lodge was a good experience for relaxing. The staff arranged a surprised birthday cake to my hubby and the gorillas made our trip a memorable! Thanks to Ngoni Safaris for such exciting experiences.
