Outstanding tour operator
I highly recommend Katella Uganda Safaris for anyone looking for an amazing safari experience. It was absolutely the trip of a lifetime. The trip was planned directly with the owner of the company so it was easy to get answers to all of our questions. Everything was so well organized. Our guide was fantastic. Every day he went outcof his way to make sure we had a great experience. Best of all, he got us to the northern Serengeti at exactly the right time to see the great migration of wildebeest crossing the Mara River. It was the most spectacular thing I've ever seen. Also, one person in our group had limited mobility and he was so kind and helpful. From beginning to end, this was an outstanding trip. I will definitely go with Katella Uganda Safaris again.

Knowledgeable, responsive, caring about her clients
We were met by Sam, our wonderful tour guide, just after arrival. He was with us the whole week and was very helpful, caring, and knowledgeable. I developed the physical issues shortly after arrival and he assisted me all the way with caring and concern. The safari was fantastic, seeing so many animals, many up very close. Sam knew the names of all of them and gave us very interesting information about them and about the areas we were in. The facilities were very nice, extremely clean, and food was wonderful. Florence obviously knows what she is doing and has the contacts and information to set up a safari to our liking. I would absolutely recommend Katella Safaris. It is 5 stars +.

Highly Recommend
5++++ I found out about this business from another person who spoke highly of them. Boy, was she right. This outfit was outstanding from the first text to the end of the tour. Florence was a delight to work with answering many questions and assisting with situations that were over, above and beyond the call of duty. She was simply amazing. The tour itself, 8 days, with highlights of Safaris, Silverback Gorillas, Chimpanzees and Golden Monkeys was everything I expected and more. Our guide for the 8 days was professional, knowledgeable and great company. He was only 'the best' and we were fortunate to have had him.
Thank you to all staff at Katella Uganda Safaris. My trip was unbelievable and all because of you. I highly recommend this business to anyone interested in an exciting adventure.

Excellent reception and tour guidance
The conversation we had with Katella was top-notch. We dealt with Florence the owner in our safari planning for uganda and Kenya. She was do helpful throughout the entire process. The tour itself was just what we asked for and we felt as if we saw all the highlights and more of Uganda! It’s a beautiful country and should be on every one's to-do list. Our extension to kenya was awesome too. We certainly received excellent value for money.

Amazing views of lake bunyonyi
We had a lovely time of relaxing at the lake bunyonyi. The canoe boat took us to different islands on the lake. Loved the ziplining as well. Thanks Katella team

Refreshing
We had an amazing holiday and a fantastic experience. Not only we saw lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes and gorillas but we were also able to interact with the local communities and see outstanding views of lake bunyonyi. Our guide Ivan was very caring and was always ready and eager to answer all of our questions. Florence on the other hand was so amazing with the prompt safari planning. Surely an experience with katella uganda safaris is worth every penny!

She makes you at ease, and shows passion in her work, interest in her guests and knows her job.
Katella Safaris team made a good impression on me. From building an engaging itinerary to preparing me for the trip it was professional and with a personal touch. The trips were a revelation into the unique, lash, and rich wildlife, great sights and interactions with the people in Uganda and Rwanda. The experience was surely satisfying and fun. Thank you Katella Safaris.
