Incredible
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of going on a safari in Uganda led by our incredible guide, Nathan, and his wife, Guilian. From the moment we set out, it was clear that they were passionate about wildlife and dedicated to providing an unforgettable experience in this stunning country.
Nathan had an impressive depth of knowledge about Uganda's unique ecosystems, sharing fascinating insights about the diverse animals, plants, and landscapes we encountered. His keen eye for spotting wildlife allowed us to see a variety of animals up close, including majestic elephants, playful chimpanzees, and even the elusive mountain gorillas.
Guilian complemented Nathan perfectly, bringing her warmth and enthusiasm to the experience. Together, they created a welcoming atmosphere, encouraging questions and fostering engaging discussions among the group. It was evident that they genuinely cared about our experience, ensuring we were comfortable and well-informed throughout the journey.
The itinerary was well-planned, balancing thrilling game drives with opportunities to learn about local cultures and conservation efforts. The entire experience felt immersive and enriching, showcasing the best of Uganda’s natural beauty.
I highly recommend Nathan and Guilian to anyone looking for a memorable safari adventure in Uganda. Their passion, expertise, and warmth made our trip truly special. Thank you both for an amazing experience!

The Perfect Trip, well organised and tailored to our interests and requirements
Elyson Adventures organised a fantastic 9 day trip around Uganda - we couldn’t have asked for a better holiday. Our highlights were gorilla and chimp trekking, seeing tree climbing lions, holes around crater lakes, the Banana man’s gin making experience, bungee jumping, and a sun set kayak on the Nile.
The holiday was booked very last minute and Nathan and Gillian were very responsive and flexible with making the itinerary. They made it bespoke to our budgetary needs and interests.
On the trip, we always felt very safe and looked after. Our guide Nathan was the ultimate professional whilst also being fantastic fun. He was able to adapt the itinerary which enabled us to see the tree climbing lions in Queen Elizabeth National Park.
Overall, it was the perfect holiday and we’ve already recommended Elyson Adventures to our family and friends.

Calm and warm and extremely supportive!
We did a trip from Kampala up to Murchison Falls National Park. Was extremely well looked after throughout, with great cultural stops on the way. We saw so much wildlife - elephants, buffalo, lions, warthogs, giraffes and even leopards (family up in a tree). Nathan was a delight to be with throughout. Very good value for money, and I felt so well looked after.

Amazing 3 days trop to Murchison Falls
In November 2023, I went to the Murchison falls National Park with two friends for 3 days, a trip organised by Elyson Adventures. It was simply an amazing experience from all aspects. The park itself and the falls are of an outstanding beauty and worth visiting at least once in a life time!
Nathan was the organiser and our guide and I can say that he was the best guide we could potentially had. He had well planned everything in advance. During the 3 days, he was there available the whole time and was willing to divert from the schedule to accommodate all our requests.
He was very knowledgeable about the park, the animals and was sharing continuously nice stories and information.
He was very pleasant, always smiley and with a positive attitude.
At the end of the trip he gave each one of us a lovely present as a souvenir for the lovely, unforgettable trip.
I would highly recommend Nathan to everyone who would like to visit this blessed part of the world.

Great service and experience
Our experience with Nathan and Gilian was excellent. A year of fluid communication, they helped us organize the best itinerary, the best places, and make adjustments when we needed it. Nathan has great knowledge of the animals, the country, and the places we visit. We left Entebbe, and slept in the capital and main city: Kampala. Afterwards we went on a circular tour through the entire western part of the country, the most important stops: Rhinoceros Sanctuary white (they have been in this project for 20 years, they have 41 rhinos, when they reach 50 they can go to the national parks), Murchison Falls fed by the Nile River with its incredible strength, the chimpanzees in the Kibale forest and ending with what brought us here: The mountain gorilla Silverback. There are only 1,000 left in the world. Distributed between Uganda, Rwanda and Congo. A beautiful, moving, exciting encounter, we did not imagine that it would be so special to see these giants in their natural habitat.

Amazing service and guide!
I loved going on my Uganda safari with Elyson adventures. It felt very personalized, and the attention was great. Nathan our guide was super knowledgeable of nature, history, culture of Uganda. We had great conversations with him.
Every lodge was above our expectations, the food was great, and the attention was perfect. I like that this agency is created and owned by Ugandans so I know it's people that want to show their beautiful country to the world.
