Amazing safari and gorilla trekking experience
Thanks for an amazing 14-day Uganda safari and gorilla trekking trip. Everything has been meticulously organized by Mrs Annette, she was very quickly to respond and to adjust the itinerary as requested.
My driver, Arafat, was also amazing and knowledgeable, if you have a chance, ask for him to be your guide. I definitely recommend Tubale and will use their services again when I come to Uganda/East Africa.

Entire trip above expectations it was amazing in every way.
I have traveled to so
many countries and do not normally do tours (only a few in my life). This was an exception and I have to say it was amazing at every turn and experience! Prior to our trip Annette answered everything promptly and so efficient in every way! Our guide Ronnie went above and beyond daily and we so enjoyed all his knowledge and allowing our experience to be over the top! Our lodging was above expectations and staff quickly became new friends. Trekking with Rhinos - then Chimps and then gorillas! Great price - so reliable in every way!

7 day Sagari tour
Tubale has been absolutely incredible in organising our 7 day safari.
Annette was incredibly quick at replying in any interaction. When I first contacted her (on a Sunday) we received a detailed option within 2 hours. We decided to trust her judgment, and we couldn't have been happier.
The payment was secure, which was a big concern for me, and Annette didn't even chase us for the 2nd payment and was very chill.
She also provided incredible guidance on the clothing and other stuff we should bring. What a life saver that was, we always had what we needed to carry out the activities in a safe and pleasant manner.
At the end of the trip, Annette was adamant to meet, and that was so gracious of her. Showed that she really cares about all her customers, even if she lives far from where we were staying.
Regarding the details of the safari, we had Shafic as our guide. He went above and beyond, so if you book with them, make sure to see if you can have him as your guide (and tip him well!). Not only could he find the animals, but he was a safe driver and we had the greatest conversations about Uganda. From the food, to the people, customs and any socioeconomic topic you could imagine. He was also super interested in learning more about Europe and this made for the best conversations during drives and meals.
During the 7 day trip we did the following activities: Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls trek, Murchison Falls game drive, Kibale Chimp trek, local village experience (highly recommend RestInBanana man!), Queen Elizabeth game drive, Bwindi Gorilla Trekking.
Whilst all were incredible and we learnt so much, I must say that Gorilla trekking, Murchison falls and Ziwa are absolute musts. You cannot skip them.
I wish we had more time so that we could do a more extensive tour of the country which we absolutely loved. We will certainly be back to see what we missed (and probably do the Gorilla trek again!), and when we will, Tubale will be certainly who we ask to organise the trip.
To Annette and the team: keep up the amazing work and continue making magical trips for people from all around the world.

Truly fun and Unforgettable Safari Experience
My brother planned a surprise 5day Safari with Tubale Safaris and it was fantastic. We visited Murchison Falls and White Water Rafting in Jinja. Everything was so well planned and our guide Jamal was excellent. Highly recommended!

What a thoughtful and memorable tour!
I absolutely enjoyed my first trip to Uganda (and Africa!) with Tubale Safaris! After comparing different tour companies, I picked Tubale not only because it was one of the more reasonably priced ones but also because Annette was very responsive and helpful! For my 5-day safari excursion and city tour, Jamal my guide was fabulous! He was knowledgeable, friendly and took care of a lot of details for me, which eased my concerns as a first time (and solo) traveler to Africa! Jamal also gave me great suggestions and options along the way which allowed me to have an experience which is truly personalized. I cannot recommend them enough - can’t wait to go back and visit with more family members and friends!

Very trustworthy to have great days in Uganda
They were excellent with me since the very beginning. All was arranged as decided and their recommendations were really good. I had the programme of 10 days and the highlight was the trekking of mountain gorillas. It was, that’s for sure, a great programme with plenty of amazing pictures and videos.
During those days I saw so many things of wildlife that made this a wonderful experience. And I must tell it was not the first time I had safaris. I was before in Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa.
This time I discovered Uganda, and I strongly recommend this experience with Tubale Safaris to others that have interest in this, as I do.
My first contact was by e-mail, and then Whatsapp, with Anette. She made me feel totally confortably and it was great how she answered fast to all my questions.
Then I got Brian as driver and guide. He couldn’t be better to me! With him I met a country, with its people, animals, landscape and stories.
So, if you’d like to have an exciting experience in the wild, I suggest to choose them. I was very pleased, for sure! Now I have 4000 pictures and videos to edit and my friends just can’t wait to see them.

Amazing experience and service
Tubale Safaris gave us the most wonderful Uganda adventure! Our 7-day tour was full of amazing experiences including tracking rhinos, baiting Murchison falls, spotting the big 5 on game drives and tracking both chimpanzees and gorillas. Annette was extremely helpful and organised when it came to organising the tour an d her excellent communication really stood out. Our wonderful guide Herman was a joy to spend time with and was very dedicated and knowledgeable (especially about the bird life) which made the experience once in a lifetime. I cannot recommend Tubale Safaris and their excellent service enough!

Professional, knowledgeable, you know exactly what you're getting from day #1
Our 1 week private safari with Tubale Safaris was amazing! While in Uganda for work, we unexpectedly had a free week and Tubale was able to organize and put together a week long safari for us, altering it as needed to meet us where we were in country and to complete all the adventures we wanted. Our tour guide, Shafic, was extremely professional and personable. He knew everyone and everything! We felt safe throughout our time and were continuously pleased with the service and lodgings provided. Tubale went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful trip. We saw EVERYTHING we wanted to see, including the Big 5. Thank you, Tubale and Shafic!

Excellent!
We had a wonderful time in Uganda. Thank you Tubale Safaris voor the excellent program! We enjoyed every minute of it! Arthur was a great guide! We stayed in very nice lodges. We saw the big 5, the chimpansees, the gorilla's, and so much more. We were surprised by the beauty of nature, the friendliness of the people! All the activities were so well organised. We can't say anything negative! Thank you Anette for organizing this trip for us! We will definitely come back to Uganda!
