Professionalism guaranteed
Our Safari has been incredible thanks to Isaya and William from Kihindo tours & safaris. I would like to start by saying that they always been very punctual, they even arrived 1 hour before to our hotel to start the Safari and pick us up. They do whatever they can to accommodate the clients and helped us out in different situations: the airline company lost our backpacks and they brought us to do a little bit of shopping to buy some clothes and they also drove us to the airport 2 days later to pick them up. They always did the extra mile for us and they have been extremely available. They are very knowledgeable about the animals and the culture in general and they were always very happy to answer to our questions in depth. We spent a lot of time together but they have never been intrusive. We appreciated their positivity, it was great to spend the Safari together. Also the price is unbeatable and the lodge we went in Selous was great. The communication was very easy and Isaya answered to us always within 2 hours. The car was comfortable, clean and reliable and Isaya is a very good driver and he know how to drive in the parks, even with mud. This Safari has been a success and we will remember it through the rest of our lives thanks to Kihindo.

Very professional and calm.
The Maasai Mara ride was one of the best for our family. Alfred from Bencia advised in best camps for our big family. Loved our driver, Joseph. He was very courageous and fun taking as down the river streams just too see the animals especially the leopard.
Was a really great 4 day experience.

Perfect for solo female travelers
My guide was Jackson O. He met me at the airport with a welcoming smile and a wonderful spirit.
As a solo female traveler, first impressions and gut instincts are paramount - I immediately felt at ease. Jackson was open to all my questions and shared the real Uganda with me. He is an expert on all things Uganda: history, economy, agriculture, social fabric, and politics. He tells it like it is, which can be a rare quality among those in the tourism industry. He was a true gentlemen and gave me good advice on many things: how to get a thorn out of my finger, which hotels to stay at, and which tours were suitable.
Jackson O. possesses the rare quality of being able to adapt to what the client wants and needs- very good people skills.
Well done, Uganda Family Tours!

Amazing Trip with Uganda Family Tours and Travel !!!
I had an amazing trip with Uganda Family Tours and Travel in December of 2023. This was my first safari as well as my first trip to Africa, and it far exceeded my expectations! I went on a 10-day safari, during which time we experienced most of Uganda.
During our trip we saw not only the big 5 but also the gorillas and the chimps. Our guide was Jackson Otwikende who we got to know well over the course of those 10 days. Not only is Jackson a sensational guide, but he's also very professional, incredibly kind and personable, and displays a great sense of humor. In addition, Jackson is highly knowledgeable and has a wealth of information when it comes to all things about the wildlife. His love for his country, its history, the people, and their culture was evident throughout our trip.
I would highly recommend Ugandan Family Tours and Travel, and especially Jackson!

It is a fantastic, super friendly and reliable tour operator that I recommend to everyone!!!
We booked in advance a 1 day unforgettable safari tour to Akagera National Park.
The booking and further communication went very smoothly via email and WhatsApp with Frank.
On the agreed day our wonderful guide Taufique picked us up at 5am at our hotel to take us to the park in a comfortable jeep. On the way he gave us, without being pushy, a lot of explanation about Rwanda, the culture, the nature, the sights and he encouraged us to ask him all our questions. He even stopped to let us enjoy a beautiful sunrise.
In the park we enjoyed a delicious breakfast buffet and a tasty lunch and Taufique made a great effort to show us as many wild animals as possible from start to finish!
The safari tour was not cheap but definitely worth the money!
Taufique and Frank also gave us a lot of information about renting a car for our road trip through Rwanda and also about the state of the roads and safety on the road. In the end we were able to rent the car through Golden Rwanda at a very reasonable price per day.
So, i would love to recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris to everyone!
Thanks for everything you did for us Frank & Taufique!

East African Safari and Touring company offer a good balance of budget and luxury
We went on a Safari with EASTCO as a delayed honeymoon and it was a 12 day trip from Uganda at Entebbe through to Arusha. Simon was very good at communicationg and organising the Safari effectively, and by the time we had paid up we fely confident in the company. The Safari was excellent as importantly bot the driver Cosmas and the Landrover were really good (the former being more important than the latter!) The accomodation was of a good standard and the full service camps were a treat, and probably the most enjoyable part. We saw more wildlife than we could have hoped for and had a once in a lifetime trip. Thanks EASTCO, I'm happy to recommend your services!

The best trip of our lives, with the best guide ever.
Simon King, the owner of Eastco, arranged exactly the safari we wanted, with the perfect mix of luxury lodges and tented camps, balancing our desire for privacy away from other tourists with our wish to see the wildlife, game drives with extra activities. He answered my millions of questions perfectly, quickly, and with patience. He managed to make our trip more affordable than any other operator we contacted, with far better lodging choices. Our favorite was Boundary Hill Lodge, a spectacular room with a spectacular view. Our guide James was psychologist, knowledgeable naturalist, eagle eyed, kind, humorous, and generous with himself. I cannot imagine a more wonderful person to spend almost two weeks with. We still marvel at our experience every day. Though it may sound like hyperbole, I can't imagine a better trip.
