We had a great time on our Safari our tour guide was very proffessional and friendly.
We had an amazing time,the drive to the National Park was very nice. Food was great and all the People we met along the way were very friendly. Accommodations were very nice as well. My 8 year old son also enjoyed the walk in the banana plantation and around our lodge . Amazing memories seeing the animals in there own habitat it is truly beautiful.

Excellent Safari experience of our lifetime
I was in a 10 Days tour in Tanzania with my friend Kate Huber. Mr Donatus organized excellently every tip for us . We had a 5 Days tour to Mount Kilimanjaro through Marangu Route. This was our dream and we really enjoyed to the maximum. The Guide,the Cook and Laggage Helpers were very very friendly. Mount Kilimanjaro is beautiful through this Company. Our safari to Mikumi and Boat trip in Selous were amazingly a dream comes true. Lastly we had a short beach Experience in Zansibar. "What a Paradise on earth!". We thank very much this Company and all the workers and we really recommend people to travel with them because you will never regret.

Amazing tour, perfect organization and breathtaking country
A friend recommended me Augur as she had a wonderful experience with them in Uganda. My mum came to visit me with a friend and I decided to contact Augur for their tour of Uganda. Everything exceeded our expectations. Everything was perfectly organized by Dauda till the smallest detail. Edward accompanied them throughout the entire trip and he has been the most amazing guide. I also joined them in Murchison Falls and I saw how perfectly organized the tour was. That said, Uganda is an amazing country and the places they visited are so beautiful. We would totally recommend Augur to anyone who wants to visit this beautiful country!

Poor service and knowledge of the package they are selling.
At the beginning, everything went smooth: Allan replied to all my emails very quickly but the problem is that nearly all the information he gave me were wrong. I spent 8hours in the van from Nairobi to Masai Mara (Allan told me it takes 4hours) and nearly 10 hours from Mara to lake Nakuru. ( was told 6 hours by Allan).
I asked Allan if they have a 4wheel drive car instead of the van he told me yes with a 350$ extra per person. We chose the van as it’s cheaper: the problem is that the roads all around Mara were off roads: ( and Allan didn’t tell us of course) we got stuck maybe 4 times in the Mara reserve and twice when we head to lake Nakuru. We lost lots of time: I spent more time in the van than in the parks I came to visit.
Another thing I didn’t like: as soon as we sent the deposit to book the package, Allan send me an email with what is included and what is not. He wrote that tips are not included and between parenthesis : 10$ per person per day is the minimum. When we arrived to Nairobi and he met us in the hotel, he spent nearly half an hour to convince us to pay the 120$ tips to the driver at the end of the trip. A tip is not a fee or a tax: we are free to pay what we want depending on the service given.
Last thing: in the program there was the lake Nakuru known for the many flamingos that live and feed from it. But flamingos can be seen only in summer, as during the rainy season the level of the lake goes up and flamingos have to go else where to have some food. This of course was not mentioned by Allan: we spent 10hours in the road from Mara to lake Nakuru only to see the animals that we already have seen in Mara.
At the end I felt that the only objective for Allan is to sell his package and make money during the low season.

Excellent budget safari, excellent operator!
We had an absolutely great time with Chris on our safari. He was very kind and professional, and Lutea was very transparent and an incredible value! I highly recommend them! The tour was a ton of fun and we hope to come back to Kenya to do it again.

Best experience according especially on choise of locations
I booked the 11 day gorilla tour with Baba Safaris Uganda and it was amazing. My guide was Sedrick and he was fantastic. he was friendly, funny and was full of information. I was able to see the big five while on safari and I was able get some amazing photos. All the accomadations were great and the food on the tour was delicious. I loved every minute of this trip and was sad to leave. I would highly recommend this company and my friend Grace!!!

They were professional in delivery of their services.
They offered timely communication which greatly contributed to a smooth and enjoyable holiday. We were guided by a lady who not only was professional but also gave great company. We visited Lake Mburo National park and Mt. Rwenzori national park both in the south of Uganda. Mukisa safaris met more of our expectations than anticipated. I look forward to travelling with them in the future!

Expatrips is the best!!
I had the best time in Uganda with a trip of Expatrips. Martin (guide) made sure I had a wonderful time and that all was arranged for!!
This included a tailor made itinerary, stops whenever I desired, extended game drives etc., etc.
Special thanks go out to my guide Martin, he made the trip! He was always making sure I was having a good time, always looking after me concerning my needs, very talkative and just a fun person to roadtrip with. Furthermore, he had detailed knowledge about Uganda's (and even all of East Africa's) flora and fauna and was able to spot a variety of birds, wildlife (including the Big Five), and trees and plants. I can truly say that I came as a client and left as a friend. I'll be missing my brother from another mother!
Overall I can highly recommend Expatrips in case your looking for an adventure in Uganda. Their variety in trips and options for these trips includes something for every type of traveler and their care taking and high service level will surely not let you down!!

Easily the best tour guide in Africa !
My wife and I have toured six times in different parts of Africa but no experience comes close to our 17 days with Frank Tours . Frank is incredibly well-informed and well-connected. We loved his warm relationships with people in every corner of the country and he displayed the same warmth to us from the moment we met . What a wonderful sense of humour. He anticipates every thing , so that all is smooth. He is a legend in Uganda and it was an honour to have had him as our guide for 17 days and a friend forever.
