It's worth it to be here!
Yes... being back in Europe we still want to go back to Uganda with its nice climate and exoticism...
We understand that everyday life in this country is not as nice as it looks to tourists, but it is already in almost every tourist trip.
The moments with Lulu Safari in Uganda were great..even despite the fact that I suddenly fell ill with a high temperature (advice-wear masks at airports)-Lulu Safaris reacted quickly and changed the route, arranging extra days of stay in other hotels... Already in the first days we saw almost all the big animals - rhinoceroses, giraffes, buffaloes, elephants, hippopotamuses, chimpanzees.. we were not lucky with the representatives of the cat family, but probably the break in illness stopped us.. we did not complete the whole program...
About currency-it's take some time to understand UGX amount at USD or EUR, at the end of January 1 USD was approx. 3800 UGX, it's time for mathematic :)
Thanks to the guide Samuel - a very responsive, knowledgeable and professional guide, apparently the whole team with Elvis Masiga at the head is like that!
During the trip, everything went exactly, the accommodations are great, the food is even too great, the level of organization of the trip is much better than in some European countries... We plan to return to gorilla trekking, which we didn't do on this trip :)
Oh Uganda, Land of Beauty!

LOVED my adventure & guide!
What a fabulous adventure! Gorilla trekking was bucket list for me and I’m SO glad I went with Lulu. All of my excursions were great (game drives, gorilla trekking, chimp trekking, gold monkey trekking, channel/boat rides) and when the horseback ride was canceled due to the stable guy being a jerk, they immediately found an even better excursion for me where I got to do a walking safari and got up close to giraffes with an amazing guide—who spotted a leopard! There was no question that Lulu went above and beyond to make sure I had the time of my life! The whole experience was amazing, the lodges they selected were unique and delightful in their own ways! Some had incredible views of forests or mountain and birds, some had lake views and traditional decor and all had very comfortable beds and really delicious food. My guide was open to adding things I wanted to do like shop at the handicraft stores and visit art galleries. My guide Smith was a bright and cheerful travel companion, I felt lucky to adventure with him! It was easy to communicate and he’s super fun!! I can’t say enough great things about Smith and Lulu. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

An amazing trip
Such a great time with Lulu Safaris! Audence was a great guide who worked tirelessly to make sure I had a good experience. Elvis put together a fast paced but excellent itinerary that ensured I was able to see as much as possible in what little time I had. Would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking to tour through Rwanda and Uganda.

Amazing tour through Uganda with Lulu Safaris
I spend 11 days travelling through Uganda.
The communication before I started the journey was excellent. Elvis always came back to me very quickly every time I had a question and helped with everything he could.
Once I arrived in Uganda my guide Derrick picked me up at the airport and the journey began.
I really had the most amazing time in Uganda. Derrick was such an amazing guide, who took very good care of me and always went the extra mile to make this trip unforgettable.
He has such a great knowledge of the wildlife, the people and every aspect of this beautiful country that a visitor could ask for. There was nothing else that I could have asked for.
This was a trip that I will never forget - thank you Derrick!

Unforgettable Uganda Safari with Lulu Safaris
Our 10-day adventure in Uganda with Lulu Safaris was nothing short of spectacular. Elvis, the mastermind behind the flawless organization, ensured every detail was perfect from start to finish.
A standout feature of our journey was our guide, Charlie. Not only a skilled driver, but he has an extensive knowledge of animals and nature that added depth to our experience. His passion for Uganda enriched our understanding of the wildlife and local culture, making each moment memorable.
From majestic mountain gorillas to thrilling safaris, every activity coordinated by Charlie showcased the best of the region.
Lulu Safaris' choice of accommodations struck the perfect balance between comfort, price and authenticity. Our stay in charming places complemented the natural beauty surrounding us.
In summary, Lulu Safaris exceeded expectations, providing exceptional organization, expert guidance from Charlie, and authentic experiences. For those seeking an unforgettable Ugandan adventure, Lulu Safaris comes highly recommended. Thank you, Elvis and Charlie, for making our journey unforgettable!

Efficient, fast responding, helpful, reliable
It was a great journey arranged by Lulu safari. Elvis is really helpful with my tour planning. He gave me lot of useful tips. And he drove one hour to Endebbe just for meeting me in person when I arrived which is not his job. Sara and Sam are very dedicated to their work, very reliable and helpful. I had great time with them especially Sara, she’s like a sister to me.

Amazing trip with an amazing guide!
We booked basically at the last minute and got several quotes, and chose Lulu Safaris because they were competitive and had great reviews. We are really happy we did as we had an incredible time on our safari. We even decided to do the gorilla experience a second time while we were there and Katto, our most fabulous guide, managed to make all the arrangements - which we were told by many people afterwards that it is VERY difficult to do and it only succeeded because everyone knows and loves Katto!
The entire trip was really wonderful, lodges that were chosen were fantastic, and each activity at or near the lodge was amazing. We didn't see very much of Rwanda, but we did do the golden monkey trekking which is honestly, just wonderful! An absolute must. The gorilla experience obviously is plain gob smackingly incredible. We spent most the 9 days in Uganda, and what a beautiful, wondrous country it is. We always felt very safe and Katto is very very knowledgeable about everything, including the politics of both countries.
I can't recommend the tour enough. It is not our first trip to Africa, but certainly one of the best. We will never be able to thank Katto enough for the wonders of those 9 days.

7-Day Gorilla, Chimpanzee Tracking and Wildlife Safari
Used safaribookings.com to get in touch with different tour operators, was promptly contacted by Lilu Safaris. They also answered very quickly to various questions we had about the trip.
We were picked up in Kigali (Rwanda) where the trip started with a Golden monkey safari, from there the trip went on to Uganda and a gorilla safari in the lovely Bwindi! After a few wonderful days in the rainforest, the trip continued to the Queen Elisabeth National Park with a game drive, boat trip and chimpanzee trekking. On the way to Kampala we stopped for an overnight stay at beautiful lake Mburu.
Rwanda and Uganda are two wonderful counties to explore, see lovely nature and meet nice people, and we really recomend to go there on your next trip to Africa! Very satisfied and happy about choosing Lulu Safaris Uganda and our guide Charles as our travel companions!

Reliable, professional and friendly
My wife and I went for the first time to Africa and definitely we would never find a better tour guide tan Lulu Safari. Every single penny was worth it!
Starting with the quick responses, very polite and professional during the quote process. We always felt that they were on top of our plans and when we asked for a change in our itinerary the answer came very quick.
Our flight got delayed by 6 hours so we communicated it and still they made it up to all our plans. Also in the middle of the trip WE decided to change plans and they were so accommodating and made all the changes within minutes (we went in low season). That make us feel so lucky to have them!!
Now for the 8 days experience, I am definitely speechless, the hotels they selected were top and luxurious… in all of them we felt like home, very clean and safe!
The safari was amazing, our tour guide Robert knew very well all the parks and had so much experience to spot the animals we went to see (and some we have no idea how he spotted them :)). The jeep we had gave us the real safari experience, it was very confortable for a 1.86 cm guy that i am and 4 wheel drive that is much needed during raining season. Also, everyone knew our guide so that made us feel very confortable and lucky to have him as a guide.
The gorilla trekking experience is TOP, we stayed 10 mins driving distance to the entrance of the park, once in the park we were with more tourist but have to say that Robert knew exactly all the procedures for registration, also he gave us some tips that were essential for an incredible day with the gorillas.
The food that was part of our package was always good. Most of the times we ate food in our hotels but couple of times we went to eat in local restaurants so we had the experience of the local cuisine.
Last but not least, shoutout to our guide and friend Robert. Since day 1, he made us feel like home, very experience and knowledgable about every single detail of our trip. Every night he explained us in detail the plan for the next day and during the activities he made sure we were his priority. We will be thankful for life with him for his kind words and all the effort he shows in daily basis.
Traveling is always better when you are with locals and this trip with Lulu made us feel part of the Lulu family!
If you are doubtful about a safari provider do not think about it and contact them!
