Action packed 5 days!
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!
Excellent experience during our Gorillas and Rhinos tour
Dav Safaris were very proactive when organising our tour and meeting our requests. Our guide and driver, Adison, was very helpful, friendly and organized. We had a great time and really enjoyed the Gorillas at Bwindi and Rhinos at Ziwa.

Gorillas and Chimps 5 Day Tour
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!

Organised
I had Godfrey as our guide.
He was organised and knowledgable.
Accomodations given were good. Van had aircon, was pretty new.
Just note to bring a small fan as the weather in Uganda is hot and there are no fans in the accomodations provided.
General tip, always check how long your safari time would be, if it's shorten, do not hesitate to question and they will make it right.
I did a 3 day's gorilla trekking at bwindi forest. Last min added a safari trip to lake mburo.
Excellent experience
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

Amazing trip to see the gorillas
We booked a 4-day, 3-night gorilla trekking adventure with Davis Safaris, and it exceeded our expectations! The highlight was, of course, encountering the gorillas in Bwindi, but every part of the journey was memorable. We loved seeing the adorable golden monkeys and were captivated by the stunning beauty of Lake Bunyonyi.
Our guide, Adams Gorilla, was exceptional. He was always punctual, kept us informed about the daily schedule, and had an impressive knowledge of everything we asked. Plus, he is incredibly friendly and hilarious. The van we traveled in was clean and comfortable, and the itinerary was well-balanced, with varied activities and accommodations that never felt overwhelming.
Overall, this was an unforgettable experience for my first time in Africa, and I highly recommend Davis Safaris and Adams Gorilla. Thank you so much!

Beauty and fun - a 7-day safari in Uganda
Uganda really impressed me. Its beauty, the green forests, the small villages, the plenty of animal species are amazing. Dav Safari organized the schedule very well, with busy days and traveling days alternating. Some can find the hours with travel exhausting, however looking throught the window is like a long movie about Ugandan countryside (villages, markets, landscape, transport etc.). The lodges and the Ugandan kitchen were super. I felt very safe all the time. The last day at the wonderful Bunyonyi lake is a hit.
My guide Joyous was extraordinary. He is very empathic, attentive, patient and funny. You can have a good conversation with him about everything, but you can be silent for hours in the car if you want. He balanced very well between a friendly fellow traveller and a professional guide.

Perfect 4 day gorilla trek as a solo female traveller!
I just finished a 4 day gorilla trek with Dav’s Safaris with Adams as my guide. What an experience!!
The tour included the golden monkeys in Uganda, gorilla trekking in Uganda and also lake Bunyonyi in Uganda too. I had such an amazing time, it was all incredible and can’t choose a favourite part (although maybe the gorillas because, wow!)
My guide Adams was local from the area so was super knowledgeable! He also made me feel so, so comfortable as a solo female traveller and was absolutely hilarious and super fun as well as providing answers to every single question I had (there were a lot!)
So happy I booked this trip and got to experience it. It all feels like a dream now!

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