Amakula African safaris is a deal.
Thanks so much Simon the team leader at Amakula African safaris. You guys made my work so easy to book for my 15 days trip from Rwanda and Uganda. I will dearly miss the fun, eating the Rolex(Chapati and Eggs). I recommend you guys for anyone to book with you.

They were very easy to deal with and quick to respond to any changes to itineraries
Amakula offer great adventures in beautiful countries. They were very easy to deal with and changing/updating itineraries was no problem at all. Simon was a great organiser and Julius was superb as our driver/guide. Next time we visit we will certainly travel with them again.

Very, very good, would do it again
Our tour lasted two weeks in Rwanda and Uganda. Very good tour and would definitely choose this company again. Not sure if I will go again (too many places to visit) but if I do, I will use this company. Our guide, Julies, was very knowledgeable and great to be around. We had many questions about wildlife and local culture and He answered everything or if he didn't know he would just say that. No bs.
The company was very flexible and customized our trip for us. My traveling partner tacked on a last minute change so he and his wife could see the gorillas in Rwanda, which normally takes some time to arrange, and Amakula made it happen on short notice.
If I do this again, I would take more time at each park. 3 days or so instead of just one. Would be good to get some hiking with one of the park guides who were all excellent and knowledgeable about the wildlife there. Highly recommend Amakula.

Above and Beyond Expectations
I booked a 5 day tour covering some of the main sites in Rwanda before culminating in my Gorilla trek in Uganda and I had the privalage of being guided by Julius. It was a tremendoulsy organized, smooth and memorable experience and ultimately my decision to choose Amakula was the absoulotely correct one, with excellent and transparent communication through Simon the head of operations and Julius my guide. Julius went above and beyond what was required for a guide in that all my extra requests were made sure by him to not only be fulfilled but to the best quality possible. The highlight of the trip was the last day of the tour were I got to get up close to the silverbacks and the attatched photos shows them in all their glory! Please do not hesitate to book with Amakula and request Julius as your guide!.. Thanks for all the great memories I will book with them again!

The 15 unforgettable days in Rwanda and Uganda
When you read you read about uganda, what comes in your mind is totally different from what you see from the hospital smiling faces of Ugandans at the airport until you leave the country. When we contacted Amakula, Simon was our contact person but he is some professional guy who told nothing but the best any one would ever lobe to hear about his country. Besides him being the agency owner but even his drivers delivered the best. Thank you so much team for the professionalism. To things i would not miss telling the world are Uganda is beautiful, Amakula guys are really so smart and lastly but not least. The people in Uganda are really hospital headed by Simon of course.

Extremely accommodating, experienced and knowledgeable 🙏
Simon runs a cool operation, catering to fine details of his guests’ tastes and needs. Simon, Arafat and Davis were an absolute treat to be with for our 3 day mountain gorillas tracking tour! Would not hesitate in referring them to one and all. Keep up the good work gents!
