Excellent service and organisation all round.
I decided to do this trip on the spur of the moment, and gave AAS only two days notice. Within the day, all was fixed over the phone.
The tour itself worked like clockwork, the guide was brilliant. On the way to Volcanoes NP, the guide pointed out all the places of interest, stopping off for me to take photos. The drive from Kigali takes about 2-3 hours along spectacular countryside.
I stayed in two lodges over the 3 nights - Bamboo and Mountain Gorilla View. Bamboo's accommodation and service were much better than MGV, but the food at MGV had a slight edge.
The guide looked after all the park paperwork, and chose the appropriate easy routes for me (I am 68). The whole experience of seeing and almost interacting with the gorillas was an unforgettable once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Lots of opportunities to take photos. The park guides and porters were friendly and full of useful information.
I wholeheartedly recommend Africa Adventure for a truly wonderful trip. Well done to them.

Uganda truly is the 'Pearl of Africa'
Africa Adventure Safaris provided a wonderful tour of Uganda. Our guides Robert and Cris took excellent care of us and were very knowledgable; we learned a lot from both of them. The gorilla trekking experience was amazing and well worth the difficult hike. We were very satisfied with the accommodations and the food was fantastic! While we had already been on safari in Kenya in 2013, this experience allowed us to see many new things that we did not see in Kenya. The boat cruise on the Kazinga Channel allowed us to get closer to hippos and crocodiles which was very exciting. Uganda is a beautiful country and we are so happy we chose Africa Adventure Safaris. I would recommend this company and tour to anyone who wants a comprehensive, first rate tour of Uganda!

Really Uganda, people and nature is nice.
Once again thank AAS for a very interesting and informative tour. I really liked it.
Everything was exactly according to the timetable, hotels and service was at the highest level.
It was clearly, on time and no one was late.
Really Uganda is nice, people and nature.
There were no problems.
Guide Patrick proved a great side, he made all to trip was interesting. He knows a lot about the animal in Uganda. Best regards to him.
If we talk about the shortcomings, the car that i have is not suited for a safari. inconvenient to photograph and nothing to hold on when the car is moving.
The diesel engine is not stopped immediately, so everything worked, and the small vibration (this was only visible on the computer) made a lot of blurred images, which were taken from the car.
I write about the micro-sharpness picture. I had noted with regret today on the computer.
Trekking to the gorillas, chimpanzees and rhinoceroses left the most pleasant memories. Face to face with wildlife is remembered for a long time.
Basically, me liked all very much. Once again, thank AAS very much.
Very professional, kind and helpful
Our good experience with African Adventure Safaris has started at the very first mail to the company with our intention to do the Uganda safari. Nicholas was extremely efficient in these e-mail communications. He replied promptly and effectively and helped us to plan according to our wishes, and was very flexible in any changes we wished to make. Upon arrival we met Rogers, our driver and guide for the week. Rogers also was very kind, professional and tried to follow our needs and requests as possible. Except from one location, we asked for a budget tour, and we had quite good accommodations with excellent food in all of them. The car was very comfortable and Rogers tried hard that we will get the most from our safari tours. The safaris were excellent – once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing
This company was professional from the first moment I made contact via email. My concerns and questions were addressed promptly and professionally, and every detail was covered prior to my departure. Upon arrival our driver was professional and informative. Never did we have any concern or question that was not addressed efficiently and to our satisfaction. Our accommodation exceeded our expectations, and the trek itself was phenomenal. We visited mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park, about a 2.5 hour drive from Kigali. This is not to be missed!

4-day tour to Bwindi and Queen Elizabeth National Parks exceeded expectations!
I'm happy I booked with Africa Aventure Safaris. I was looking for a moderately-priced tour and after talking to US spokesman Bill Williams, I was reassured about the professionalism and expertise of this company. Nelson responded immediately to my emails and answered all my questions. Our transport was a spacious and comfortable van; lodgings and food were very good. And Bernard was superb! He was a not only a skillful driver and wildlife guide, but also a passionate observer of local culture who helped us understand how the people live and deal with the challenges they face. I expected to see amazing animals and birds, but learning about Ugandans with Bernard's help was a very special experience. Thanks!
Well organised. Your Guide Zcris was excellent All went to plan and it was very enjoyable.
Everything was good well organised. No problem at alls

Exceeded My Very High Expectations!
My four-day tour in Uganda with Africa Adventure Safaris was outstanding! The planning with coordinator Nelson, the pick-up at the hotel, the Gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, the lodges, restaurants and the games drives in Queen Elizabeth National Park were all world class. Guide Joseph Sabiiti was extremely knowledgeable and professional. I give Joseph and the team at Africa Adventure Safaris my highest possible recommendation.

Africa Adventure Safaris
Africa Adventure Safaris offered an exceptional service for our 2-day gorilla tracking tour in Rwanda. They responded promptly to any questions we had leading up to the tour, and our guide was on time, professional and highly knowledgable about the region and gorillas. The tour was fantastic and well worth the price. I highly recommend Africa Adventure Safaris.

We were absolutely satisfied with the whole trip-perfect guide,car,organisation,lodges,itinerary!
We enjoyed the whole trip to Uganda. The itinerary was well organised, our guide Rogers is a real profesional - he speaks English well, he knows where and when to go, he gave us so many information - he knows all the animals, all the interesting places, style of living in Uganda etc.. He was able to answer every question we had, he kept the car always clean, he took care of us, of our safety, he supplied us with watter and the last but not the least - he is perfect driver! All the Logdes, we stayed in, were clean and well serviced, excellent food, beautiful placement (in nature), good staff. What´s more: we were lucky to get very good and friendly guides (rangers) in the parks for all tracking we passed. In short - we met no problem, no complication, no trouble during our trip. Thank you and good luck for the future!
