Amazing trip
This is an amazing trip . My guide, Derrick, treats me like my bro. I'm not good at English, but he will let me know in various ways. I also saw gorilla and all kinds of animals in the trip. The five-day journey went very fast. I think I will miss Derrick and Uganda

He put together a tour for us quickly with almost no notice and included all of our requests.
Seeing the chimpanzees and gorillas was incredible. Next time we will probably hire a porter as we were not in the best of shape, but it was a great experience anyway.

Great experience 10/10!
Did a 2-day tour with Simon and Alan to Murchison Falls. They both were awesome and went out of their way to ensure it was an amazing experience. They took care of everything, including so many little details that I wasn't expecting but really made the trip special. Simon has a vast knowledge of Murchison, and has contacts all throughout the park, he even arranged for my bf to have a cold Nile beer while on a boat-cruise on the Nile :-) I will definitely contact Lulu Safaris next time I'm in East Africa and will request Simon and Alan!

Amazing trip from start to finish
We had an amazing time on our 4 day tour with Lulu Safaris. Elvis organized the trip and everything went as expected for lodging and for the gorilla trek and golden monkeys. The only minor issue was that sometimes we had to send multiple emails before he responded. We also want to give 5 stars to our tour guide/driver Samuel. He has a very welcoming personality and it was clear that he loves being a tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and pointed out many interesting things during our long drives. He is also a very skilled and safe driver, and made sure we were comfortable throughout our trip.

4-day Golden Monkey & Gorilla Trekking- Excellent!
I went on the 4-day Rwanda-Uganda Golden Monkey and Gorilla Trekking expedition. It was one of the best and most memorable experiences of my life. From start-to-finish, I was so impressed with Lulu Safaris- from the great communication, to the thoughtful planning of each day, to the care of the team on the ground. My guide, Derrick, did an amazing job making sure that I was comfortable and that each stop was perfectly scheduled. He was also very knowledgeable about the region and could answer all my questions.
I could not recommend Lulu Safaris enough! Elvis (who runs Lulu Safaris) was great to work with and has done a phenomenal job planning expeditions. I was traveling solo and inevitably had some worries, however, Elvis took the time to ensure that I was comfortable and safe with the itinerary. If I go back to East Africa, I would certainly use Lulu Safaris again.
Trips Details:
- Visited the Kigali Genocide Memorial
- Saw Golden Monkeys in Rwanda
- Trekked in Uganda to see mountain gorillas (in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park- the premier park to see mountain gorillas)
-Visited and stayed on Lake Bunyonyi
-All food and accommodations were great!

Fully committed with customer satisfaction
Lulu safaris provides an end-to-end experience for your trip with total dedication to customer satisfaction. Our guide Derrick, is the perfect example of a great professional, with high knowledge and full dedication to making us feel at home.
Discovering the Pearl of Africa from the jewel’s hands!
Our tour with Lulu has been great. We’ve been a total of 12 days with them, both in Uganda and Rwanda.
We started our trip from Entebbe-Jinja, and then Murchison Falls, Kibale, Queen Elisabeth, Ishasha, Bwindi and Kigali.
We had the pleasure to have Derrick as our guide. He’s a lovely person, very knowledgeable and attentive to details. He always had the right answer for any curiosity we had, he also constantly commented whatever we could see on the way and also asked about our needs to make a stop constantly. He really gave a very personal touch during our trip, and made it extremely special. He also taught us some hints of the local language!
All lodges were carefully selected together, and the experience was overall very good. There were minor issues in some of them like no hot water or good conexion, but it is what it is, they were in very remote locations. Need to highligh that Elvis, the owner, was 24/7 available on whatsapp for any concern we might have on our way.
We’ve been lucky to discover Uganda from Lulu’s & specially Derrick’s hands. We can truly say now it is the Pearl of Africa, it offers many diff activities: safari, gorilla & chimps trecks, city tours, rafting, communities visit…
We can state we came back with our hearts fulfilled and all desires accomplished.
Thank you so much Derrick & Elvis, hope to travel with you guys again!

Just amazing
We just came back from a 14 day tour in Rwanda and Uganda. Our family of 5 had an amazing experience organized by Elvis. He managed our requests very well and we got the best out of our trip. We had the best guides with first Samuel (in Rwanda) and second Samuel in Uganda. We loved all of it and had on of the best trips ever. A special shout out to Samuel who did everything to make Uganda the most special Safari with seeing Gorillas, Chimpanzees and so much other wildlife. Thanks Lulu, we will be back!

Amazing Trip to see the Gorilla !
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a 6-day, 5-night tour to Uganda, guided by Audence. The experience was nothing short of incredible, and I am thrilled to share my positive review of the service provided.
Audence was an exceptional guide, showcasing his deep knowledge and passion for Uganda's wildlife and culture. His attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a memorable experience made the entire trip seamless and enjoyable.
The highlight of the tour was undoubtedly the gorilla trekking. Witnessing these majestic creatures in their natural habitat was awe-inspiring and a truly unforgettable experience. Audence's expertise made the trek informative and engaging, adding to the overall wonder of the adventure.
I wholeheartedly recommend Audence and this tour company to anyone considering a visit to Uganda. Their dedication to providing an outstanding experience is evident, and I am confident that future travelers will be as impressed as I was. This tour is a must for anyone looking to explore the beauty and wonder of Uganda.
Thank you, Audence, for an amazing journey. I hope this review encourages more people to choose your company and discover the magic of Uganda.

Professional and easy to deal with
We had a great experience from start to finish with Lulu safari. Elvis was so helpful in the organising of the trip and answered all questions we had. We were grateful of being assigned Derrick as our guide. He really took care of us the whole trip and made the experience as seamless as possible, especially in those stressful places like crossing the borders.
It was a real drama losing our luggage at the airport and we lost time from our trip having to retrieve it, but Derrick was so patient and got us back to the airport and then safely to our next stop in Uganda before dark.
All the accommodations we stayed at were beautiful and the staff at all of them were amazing. We just hope that they will be busier at other times of the year as they deserve to be.
We left Rwanda/Uganda with great memories and it was truly an experience of a lifetime seeing the gorillas. We only wished we had more time, but all the more reason to return.
