Action packed 5 days!
5/5

Our tour guide Adison was excellent, amazing driving skills! We encountered an immigration snag, but we were impressed the tour operator was able to push everything back one day thankfully. A lot of driving, but it was a very interesting drive through the villages. The Nkuringo gorilla lodge was the nicest place we have ever stayed. The gorillas was definitely the highlight of the entire Africa trip!

Gorillas and Chimps 5 Day Tour
5/5

I booked with Dav after trying to find the cheapest tour to see the Gorillas and Chimps in Uganda. I wasn't expecting much. But I was really surprised to find out it was a private tour and the level of quality. The accommodation was great. Great 3 course meals everywhere we went. The experiences themselves were amazing!!! And Richard the guide/driver was awesome!

Excellent experience
5/5

We - a family of 4 - had a wonderful 5 day trip to the Chimpanzees and the Gorillas in Bwindi. Everything was perfectly organized and we had a lifetime experience seeing these primates in their wild habitat. The hotels and food was excellent. Our guide and driver Richatd was extremely friendly and helpful during the whole trip

Trip planned to fit our schedule, excellent service from driver and all services!
5/5

My friend and I did a 4 day tour which will be one of the most memorable experiences of my life due to the chimp and gorilla trekking!
Dav safaris were extremely accommodating, arranging a 4 day tour that fit so much in and picking us up from our chosen location in Mukono - not a normal pick up point! To fit our trip in we had to do long journeys in the car, on bumpy roads but this was made into part of the experience with our driver pointing out loads on the way, and being determined for us to see everything we wanted!
All of the places Dav safaris booked for our stay were excellent, with all of the staff and guides so welcoming and wanting to make the best experience for us. Our only recommendation would be to have longer than 4 days if you can! Our last night was in Bunyoni lake, chosen by Dav safaris, and it was the perfect end to a really fantastic trip!!

Uganda you have my heart - 5 star experience
5/5

I can not recommend Dav Safaris highly enough! Richard was our tour guide and he was the BEST, his English was fantastic. He is such a genuine and lovely person with great local knowledge. Our experience with the Gorilla’s was surreal, such a special and unique experience and our stay on the island was magical!

Best guide in Uganda

Robert was the most reliable, pleasant, knowledgeable and fun guide we could ever dream of. He made our vacation extraordinary memorable and acted as a wonderful ambassador of Uganda. We loved every minute!

Fantastic trip!
5/5

Me and a friend did a 5 day gorilla and golden monkey safari in Rwanda & Uganda. We had a great experience and felt safe the whole time! Dav safari communicated with us through WhatsApp the night before we were getting picked up at our hotel. Our driver/guide Charles was very nice and friendly, and answered any questions we had. He helped us with our border crossings to ensure they went smoothly. He got us to where we needed to be on time and safely! Our vehicle had a flat tire the morning of our gorilla trek, but Charles had found it and changed it, with still time to spare once we got to the meeting point for the briefing. Dav safaris organized everything, including the lodges. All the lodges were amazing and peaceful and we were welcomed and treated very well by all the staff. As two young women travelling, we felt safe and cared for the entire time.

Amazing 5 day gorilla and golden monkey trek
5/5

Very well planned. As two young women, we felt safe the whole trip. Our guide, Charles, was there every step of the way, making sure we were on time to every excursions and making us feel most welcome to every lodge. Every place we stayed at treated us like queens. Perfect balance of adventure and down time. Highly recommend!

An amazing unforgettable experience
5/5

We booked a Safari with Dav Safaris at the beginning of March to Murchison falls.
Everything was amazing and super well planned.
Our guide name was Joyous, he was super attentive and professional.
He picked us up as planned from the hotel very far up north, we had a long drive to the park, including a ferry crossing, restaurants for meals were great and he was very very attentive to our diet restrictions.
We has the most amazing 3 days safari, Joyous spotted a lot of animals including some very hard to spot (like lions and leopards).
We had an amazing boat tour on the Nile, and a great tour to the rhino sanctuary.
The lodge they arranged for us was nothing but absolutely amazing. Although not in the park itself, its very recommended.
If ever back in Uganda, we would definitely booked with them (And definitely ask for Joyous).
The only thing I would change is instead of going to the Rhino reserve, going to the Chimp trail in the park (That was what Dav Safaris offered us from the beginning and I was the one to change it, eventually, even though I loved seeing the rhinos, they were right). So if you book with them, listen to them. :-)
