    I would recommend Africa Adventure Vacations without a second thought if the standard of their other adventures is anything like the standard provided by my Uganda and Rwanda gorilla experience tour. I have no negative comments about any of it. EXCELLENT.

    This is my 2th trip with Africa Adventure Vacations and Congo exceeded my expectations in every way. Richard our tour leader is DEFINITELY one of the best tour leaders i have EVER HAD!! If one has not done any African trip, you need to. Usually I'm content enough to be coming home but on this occasion i was sad!!

    Robert and his team at African Adventure Vacations were very patient and helpful in the planning and execution of our family trip in August 2022. We did the 6 days tour with the gorilla and chimpanzee treks. Our English speaking guide, Najib, was fabulous with accommodating and conscientious to the needs/interests of our two teenage daughters. One of our daughter was feeling under the weather and he was not pushy in trying to stick to the itinerary. Our 4 wheel drive vehicle appeared slightly outdated but never had a problem (AC worked well and very comfortable)and Najib was great at navigating the small dirt roads through our journey. We had a few budget and few mid range accommodations, we would definitely upgrade to the midrange hotels next time. The country and people are amazing and we forward to our next visit. Thank you to Robert and especially Najib for a great trip.

    You made this the most spectacular Africa adventure vacation John and I have ever experienced! When one compares life to a book in which travel turns the pages, this outing knocked off a few major chapters. Think of it, old people being completely awed like small children, humbling and uplifting! My mind's eye has thousands of new snapshots and feelings to go with them. Blessings to you and your precious family. Thank You .

    What happens is that i had such an unforgettable, once in a lifetime experience. I was worried about camping out for the first time but well, i was surprised by the turn of events.The outside accommodations setting, the staff and yes, the food was fantastic. Everything exceeded my expectations. A MUST travel with when in Uganda.

    By the way! I have contacted 3 different travel agencies in Uganda! According our feelings you are the best! Not the cheapest 😉 but the most involved one! That's why we have chosen you as our one and only travel agency for Uganda! Very well done Africa Adventure Vacation Team! 😉

  • 5/5 Moses M. 5 years ago on Google
    Thank you very much Africa Adventure Vacations for all that you did for us. The 4 days that we spent time in Queen Elizabeth National Park and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was for real beneficial to our research study. The guides gave what we expected, with total satisfaction I can say We enjoyed the trip & totally loved it.

    We had the pleasure of doing a 10 day safari with this company over June with Caesar as our tour guide. The trip was incredible and it was truly possible because of our guide Caesar, he took care of our every need, from lodging accommodations, to meals, to the unexpected necessary bathroom stops. During our first group meeting they explained that there’s a chance the car might breakdown but they’re prepared to fix it. Halfway through the trip our car broke down and Caesar drove us to the nearest town and dropped us off at a very nice hotel while he repaired the car. He handled everything so professionally and the company delivered on the authentic experience they promise. Anyone looking to travel to Uganda I would highly recommend Africa Adventure Vacations!!

    We booked an individually planned safari with mid-range to budget accomodation for 4 people in Uganda with AAV in 2022. The trip was wonderful and well organized, our guide Stanley is amiable, knowlegeable and a VERY good driver who took us securely through every adventurous situation. We visited Kidepo NP, Ziwa, Murchinson, Kibale. Stanley spotted and explained every animal near and far and thus created so many wonderful memories for us. We even saw the shoebill right next to the road! Troubles at home finally resulted in us abbreviating our stay and not finishing the trip, which had originally included Elizabeth NP, Ishasha, lake Bunyoni and the Gorillas at Bwindi. Everybody at AAV was extremely helpful in our special situation and also with the paperwork afterwards. We had done a lot of research in advance on itinerary, accomodation etc. and AAV stood out tremendously against all other travel agencies with their quick and patient responses to our questions and needs. We are looking forward so much to finishing our safari this year with Robert and his team!

    This tour really surpasses our expectations of Uganda. This country is definitely the pearl of Africa. Must before you die. And Gorillatrekk company is super recommended.

  • 5/5 Jessica C. 3 years ago on Google
    We were very lucky to have Robert as our guide and took care to make sure we had an enjoyable trip. He was so amazing we laughed our way around Uganda.

  • 5/5 Ashley J. 3 years ago on Google
    We did the four day Safari with Shadows: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Since initially contacting them we got the response from Ashiraf who was super helpful during all the process of deciding what to do and where to stay. He also helped with all practical questions such as weather, clothing, tips, etc.

    One of the best trips in my life! I really want to thank the agency and our guide driver Najib for an amazing and unforgettable trip! Your kindness and friendly attitude towards us made us feel really welcome and safe trough out the whole trip. It was my cousins Rick birthday and you even arranged a cake for her and made her birthday even more unforgettable. Once again, I really thank you and wish you all the best, I am sure you will make many more tourists so happy as we were with you!

    Truly amazing! Thank you Ashiraf for organizing this tour for us. Our guide Ceasar was great, he knows a lot about wildlife and people. I hope we will be back in your country soon, would like to climb the Rwenzori mountains. Uganda should definitely be on the top list for safaris! Few people know that there are such amazing wildlife sightings in your country. We saw so many elephants, lions, giraffes…the cruises on the Nile river were amazing. And of course, the highlight were the chimps and gorillas. We “visited” a family of 14 individuals, including the silverback and many babies. They were so cute when they were playing in the river. The trackers did an excellent job and were very friendly and ready to help when there was no trail at all or very steep parts.

    We had the most amazing trip thanks to Ashiraf and African Adventure Vacations. Sam was absolutely the BEST guide and helped make our trip a very special, unique and enjoyable time. We felt safe and comfortable the whole time and would gladly use this company again.

  • 5/5 Kiberu A. 4 years ago on Google
    Excellent experience overall We were very satisfied with our gorilla trek in Uganda and golden monkey trek in Rwanda. Ashiraf from Africa Adventure Vacations was very accommodating of our requests and helped put together an itinerary that worked for us. We had a great time with our driver guide, Sam. He drove well, was full of information and entertained us on all our drives. Everything was well-organised, from water to meals, accommodation and transport. Great experience!

  • 5/5 tit l. 4 years ago on Google
    We had exchanged dozens of e-mails with Ashiraf for more than a year to organize this trip. She was completely flexible with our choice of hotels and itinerary. When bad reviews started to tarnish a hotel, he readily changed the hotel to one with better reviews. He promised us gorillas, and we saw gorillas—lots of them.

  • 5/5 Maddie A. 3 years ago on Google
    Robert was our tour guide and Ashiraf was our first point of contact. Our seven days tour was excellent, Robert did everything to make us feel comfortable and ensure we had a great experience. We were picked up from Kampala and dropped in Entebbe. They were brilliant tour guides, we couldn't have been happier.

  • 5/5 Nancy L. 3 years ago on Google
    I'm so incredibly happy I booked this tour. Robert was an amazing guide, he knew all about the animals and where to find them, he was very kind and made us laugh a lot. I saw the most beautiful sceneries and animals, the accommodations throughout the trip were very nice and I would absolutely recommend this company and especially Robert to anyone making a trip to Uganda and I hope I will be able to book another trip with him soon.

  • 5/5 maria l. 3 years ago on Google
    The trekking was amazing! It’s a long trip to the forest from Entebbe or Kampala. If I had time I would do a longer tour. Robert made all the effort to don’t compromise the whole experience. I really recommend the experience.

  • 5/5 Tanu T. 3 years ago on Google
    I consider it Excellent trip. The trip was incredible. Ashiraf went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and my enjoyment. The country is epic and the activities were nothing short of amazing. Thank you so much!

  • 5/5 Julie H. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing Experience. I have had the pleasure of engaging Africa Adventure Vacations in various tours to Murchison Falls National park, Queen Elizabeth national park, Kibale, Rwanda, and Kenya where I was able to see the BIG FIVE. They have excelled in service delivery and efficiency. They have friendly packages and are always flexible when it comes to customizing trips. The company has highly experienced and professional guides that made my experience very memorable. I do highly recommend Africa Adventure Vacations.

    Africa Adventure Vacations is the best gorilla safari company in Uganda

  • 5/5 Robert J. 4 years ago on Google
    For our safari tour, Ashiraf gave us Ceasar as our driver/guide. He was wonderful. He knew every plant, every bird, and every animal. He was our advocate for the gorilla treks as I had a history of fractured feet. He worked hard to get us treks to the closer gorilla families so that we would not have to walk as far.

    My wife and have recently returned from 7 days throughout all of Uganda and Kigali, Rwanda. Our search for a reputable safari company started with a friend, he recommended 2 companies he had dealt with. After hopping on TripAdvisor and reading about them, I was convinced with one of the companies he recommended. Nonetheless, I also saw Africa Adventures Vacations. I contacted both companies at the same time and was immediately contacted back by African Adventures Vacations and also, received a phone call from Ashiraf. Long story short, the communication plays a big role in trips like these and I opted to go with Africa Adventures Vacations. Throughout the days, Ashiraf was very responsive and helped me with the many doubts I had.
