Great experience, pickup and travel to the park with train went very smooth. The safari experience was great and our guide Nuhu delivered a first class experience. I can definitely recommend this tour.

We are a couple (M, 49; F, 38) who chose to go with Wagatil for its positive reviews and the itinerary. The trip was a dream from start to finish! Roland picked us up at our hotel in Kigali and for eight days he made sure we experienced the best of Uganda. Our itinerary included Golden Monkey trekking, Gorilla trekking, Game Drives in Queen Elizabeth, River cruise and Chimp trekking. The lodges we stayed in were beautiful and romantic. The beds were comfortable, the water was generally hot, and the food was delicious. It was a real privilege to connect with Roland over his passion for Uganda's fauna and flora, learning about the different animals and plant life (lots about banana trees!)
The Ebola outbreak was announced halfway through our trip and Roland and Wagatil took care to keep us up to date about how it might impact our trip (it didn't!). It was clear there is anxiety for Uganda's tourism industry and its workers (tour guides and hotel managers and staff) over what is expected to be many cancellations because of fear of the virus. Each person has to choose for themselves but we always felt very safe since the Uganda tourism circuit is far away from the epicenter of the virus (about 200 miles!).
It's hard to pick just a few stand out moments. Heading back to the lodge after the game drive, Roland stopped the car on the side of the road to point out a rare Leopard sighting -- it was such a chance encounter! At one of our lodges, an elephant sauntered up to the lobby. It was so cool to be so close to wildlife. And when we insisted on stopping by the side of the road for an authentic pork joint / Waragi gin experience, Roland happily obliged.
The Gorilla trekking was awe-inspiring and exhilarating. With the chimps, it was downpouring so much, but it created a unique experience, and we got some great shots and had some interesting interactions.
The whole trip was a dream. It's always a little nerve wracking to choose a tour operator sight unseen, but Wagatil was absolutely wonderful. Highly recommend!
Rudzani did a great job driving and got us everywhere safely and on time.
Our two tour guides were enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The museum boat ride was fun. The cave tour turned out to be an adventure. We learned why we were given hard hats.
Very flexible.
After another tour company set up the wrong pickup site, Rudzani met us and made sure we got back to our hotel after the tour.

Far from mass tourism, Uganda is a wild and intensely green destination. It’s the perfect trip if you’re looking for the thrill of primordial nature. Yazid was an extraordinary and highly knowledgeable guide. If Uganda remained in my heart, it’s largely thanks to him. Highly recommended!!!

Experts in what they do, incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and they put the customer first.
Our Safari vacation with Sekanka Safaris was highlight after highlight from start to finish. From the moment we inquired about our dream trip, everything was incredibly well organized. Anna and Tepo answered all of our questions and did a fantastic job making us feel comfortable.
When it was finally time to fly to Botswana to start our trip, we felt the whole itinerary was carefully and perfectly organized. We got see a lot of animals, including all of the Big Five. We were truly amazed by the special experience of camping in the Okavango Delta - falling asleep to lions roaring.
We would definitely recommend booking with Sekanka Safaris!

The best safari with the best guide, Yasin.
Simply the best guide, Yasin, with the best safari company in Kenya.
Everything was well organized, and Yasin always managed to get the best angle to see the animal and take the best photo.

It is great!
I love the safari so much. We had a good time with friends from three counturies. The tour guide Richard is full of experience on driving, chasing animals and patient.
