Excellent tour guide and fabulous communication and flexibility
5/5

I did a three day tour of Murchison Falls National Park as a solo traveller in December 2023. After much deliberation I opted for Vibrant Holiday Safaris, who were very flexible and accommodating to what I was keen to do in my limited time in Uganda.

I did a private tour (for just me), which was cheaper than most comparable tours of Murchison Falls or Queen Elizabeth NP. Communication beforehand was super easy, and I only had to pay a 30% deposit before being picked up from Kampala.

My tour guide, Joel, was excellent, and always fun to be around. Another staff member from the organisation, Fiona, came along too, which allowed for a very pleasant three days. The van (not a 4WD as I had expected) was comfortable, and I had lots of flexibility on where I wanted to go and how fast we drove etc. Accommodation (just outside the national park as I opted for a budget option) was excellent, and the food was top notch.

The national park itself was phenomenal. We saw the Big Five (including a leopard from super close!), and the scenery was magestic. We got to do early morning game drives, rhino tracking, an evening game drive, and a cruise down the Nile. Incredible. Keep in mind that it wasn't one of those pack-heaps-of-information-in-at-all times tours, so if you want lots of detailed information on animals and habitats (particularly about birds) that's worth noting. For me though it was great.

Overall a great tour. Highly recommend!

Satisfactory
5/5

I had an 8 day trip with Vibrant safari. It was a great experience. Everything was perfectly planned, my ittenary was planned and followed promptly, the vehicle was comfortable irrespective of the long journeys and we had multiple stops along the way. The guide was quite informative Allen well versed with knowledge about the area and activities. The hotel rooms were very comfortable and the food was very nice and organic. 101% recommended.

I had no prior knowledge of what to expect; but it turned out to be a fabulous time in wonderful company with new friendships. The operator and her staff were extremely friendly and hospitable.

Well organised
5/5

A very well planned out tour and we were able to see a vast amount of wildlife - hippos, giraffe, elephants, lions, zebra, crocodiles. For us the 2 highlights though were the gorilla trekking and chimpanzees. The lodges chosen were excellent, beautiful settings, great service and food. The only accommodation that lacked all these things was Kontiki Hotel. Our driver Joel was friendly, welcoming and as a driver negotiated what was extremely difficult road conditions in many places. We felt he lacked experience though and we had to prise information from him frequently. The last day for us was the only downside. After a fabulous morning walking safari with one of local guides, the plan was to travel to our hotel near Entebbe Airport - a driving distance of approx 5.5 - 6 hours incl a stop for lunch. Due to the route he took it ended up being an 11 hour journey and forfeiting the hotel stay for a few hours before the flight. The journey was hampered by a road accident which was unavoidable but the horrendous traffic could have been avoided if a different route on the toll road had been taken. As a result we were in need of a shower, food and sleep. The overall experience though was excellent and we would choose vibrant again.
