I had the most excellent experience , much beyond all my expectations .
This 9 days tours was planned personally by Mr. Robert the manager much beyond our expectations . The driver was the best , very kind , experienced and helpful . The lodges were incredibly excellent . The views landscapes , the fauna and the flora you can only compare to paradise or Garden of Eden , no other words to describe such beauty . I was picked up from the airport on arrival and brought back to the airport on departure , what else can you ask for ? I have done many tours before but believe me , this was the best well organized .

Extremely hospitable and make you have the fun out of every bit of your adventure.
Before our departure to Uganda, African adventure travelers helped us put together our family safari of 4. Alex our guide was in time waiting to pick us up at Entebbe airport in Uganda. We drove through heavy traffic to our lodge in Kampala the first night. All the lodges, the food were all on point, very amazing and Alex made sure we saw everything. The three Lions on the tree freaked us out thinking they would jump and find their way in our jeep. The Golliras with a 1 week baby were so intriguing. The whole adventure was so stupendous and I can't thank them enough. I highly recommend them if you want to have a remarkable experience ever!

4 days 3 Nights Murchison, Gorilla tracking adventure
African Adventure travellers took us on unforgettable getaway that truly has it all, 4 days Murchison falls Safari provided us plenty of ways to make the most of our days, from adrenaline pumping mountain attractions to family pleasing events and entertainment. Sarah the reservation Manager helped me look for Gorilla Permits yet most of the tour companies replied advising me to wait for some extra days. Murchison falls park gave us all that we wanted.Seeing the lions, hiking to the top of the falls. Not forgetting the nestled in beautiful and secluded lodges that was on to the point as agreed. I surely recommend this tour company

Amazing safari!
We are a Brazilian couple, seniors, and our dream was to go trekking in the mountain of the gorillas. We hired AAT in late 2019 for a tour of Uganda. But the pandemic came! I had already paid half of the trip and we were only able to do it in October 2021. Robert was extremely correct with us, kept his commitment even with so many difficulties that the covid brought. We stayed in exceptional hotels, we had a driver/guide (Patrick) exclusively with us, stopping to take pictures whenever we requested. The trip was unforgettable! We went to see gorillas and found that Uganda has so much more to see!! One of the best trips of our lives!! Congratulations to African Adventure Travelers.

Great man, nice soul
The tour was perfect. They picked us up in the hotel in Kampala and we started the tour stopping in the Equator. Nice pics and good lunch. After that, we went to Bwindi in a long road laughing and telling stories about the past. We figured out that you could avoid eating chickens, but you can eat the cousins LOL Augustine helped us all the time. We could see the gorillas and keep going to Ruanda. Full experience.

Amazing
We did a 7 days trip in Uganda with African Adventure Travellers and it was an amazing experience. In this time, we visited Kampala, did safari in Murchison Falls, chimpanzee trekking in Kibale, gorilla trekking in Bwindi and canoeing on the Lake Bunyonyi. We had great communication with Robert Mugabe for organizing the trip. Afterwards, the driver Patrick was fundamental for the success of the safari. I also have to quote the guide Huzaima for the excelent city tour in Kampala. Both were really friendly and helpful. I truly recommend their services!

Another perfect Uganda Safari
This is our 4th safari with African Adventure travelers and they did not disappoint! The service was impeccable. We were a group of 8 people this year. They are flexible and able to accommodate our budget without sacrificing quality, even when we have last minute changes. The value was once again beyond what I expected. Dr. Robert is incredibly responsive, and his whole team is great to work with, which is why I will continue to use them for all my Uganda excursions in future. See you next year!

An Extremely Well-Planned and Executed Tour of Uganda
Great locations of accommodations. We were kept well-informed before and during all activities. Excellent driver/guide with good preparation of all park permits and primate habituations. Very good secondary guides where required.
We took the luxury option and it was worth every penny! Very good value.
Everyone was reliable, while still being flexible: able to take into consideration our energy and interest levels. Augustine was very understanding of our moods and limitations; all of us being in our 60's.
After meeting the animals in the wild over a period of two weeks, I will never look at a zoo the same way again.
We were able to come very close to the Big Five (Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Rhino and Water Buffalo), as well as Hippos, Giraffes, Crocodiles, Zebra, Warthogs, Kob, Water Buck, Impalas, Thomson Gazelles, Baboons, Several other varieties of Monkey, and innumerable species of birds; not to mention GORILLAS and CHIMPANZEES.
After a cultural tour of Kampala with Augustine, we were delivered to the Entebbe Airport with enough memories to last a lifetime. We very strongly recommend Robert and his team at African Adventure Travellers for your next visit to Africa!
NOTES:
1) Robert has many more economical options available, with the same level of service from the team but more modest accommodations.
2) The Chimpanzee and Gorilla Tracking/Habituation are physically very demanding; particularly the Gorillas, due to the altitude - take a porter for each person (they are worth it!).
3) You need light hiking boots and gaiters for the Gorillas.

From beginning to end, everything was perfect!
After over a year of consultation and multiple adjustments, Robert and his team put together the PERFECT Safari Tour; Customized for us and to an impeccable standard.
From the time that our plane touched down in Entebbe until our return flight departed 2-1/2 weeks later, our every need was met: Full yet flexible schedule; Stunning accommodations in out-of-this-world locations; Gourmet 3- and 4-course meals at the lodges, and nutritious box lunches or breakfasts when the schedule demanded; Good quick laundry service; Prompt porter service; etc. Leaving us free to focus on what was important... admiring the spectacular scenery, and interacting with and observing the wildlife!
And, we had some of the most extraordinary wildlife experiences imaginable!! In Uganda, we were able to get much closer to the animals than we found in Tanzania. Our tour included the Chimpanzee Sanctuary on Ngamba Island, the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls (from above and below), Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kibale for Chimpanzee Habituation, the Ishasha sector for the Tree Climbing Lions, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for the Gorilla Habituation, and Lake Mburo National Park for the Zebras and Giraffes.
All being seniors, we chose to opt for the internal flights to replace a couple of the longer drives... Even though our Safari vehicle was comfortable and commodious, generally cleaned overnight, and Augustine is an uncommonly good driver. I should also note that he was extremely understanding and considerate of our various limitations and moods. For the air transfers, we took an easy 1-hr flight and Augustine picked us up at the other end, with our luggage. It was all very smoothly orchestrated. Then we added an unexpectedly interesting 2-day cultural tour of Kampala onto the end of our 2-week Safari.
We feel so very lucky to have chosen Robert to be our tour operator, and positively blessed that he assigned Augustine to be our driver/guide. It was well worth every penny, and we are now able to count both Robert and Augustine among our close friends. I would trust either with my life and won't hesitate to strongly recommend them.
NB
African Adventure Travellers also offers shorter tours and more economical ones; all with the same level of service and attention to detail, but with more modest accommodations or fewer destinations.
