EXCELLENT rating
Based on 60 reviewsUganda/Rwanda Safari Had the most amazing time Our guide, Veronica, and driver Solomon were wonderful to travel with Always felt safe, and always knew what we were up to the following day. We were very pleased with most of our accommodations, there were a couple that had a fair amount of construction going on So many animals! Only disappointment was missing the Genocide Memorial in Rwanda. We arrived late, this was totally avoidable, oh well. Everything else was flawlessBrad C2024-09-07Mukisa Safaris exceeded our expectetations! Our experience with Mukisa Safaris was exceptional from start to finish. We booked our tour almost a year in advance, and as our departure date approached, we had numerous questions. Richard was fantastic at communicating with us, always responding promptly to every query, big or small. His answers were thoughtfully written, not just copy-paste responses, and they provided us with great reassurance.From the moment we arrived at Entebbe airport, we were able to relax and enjoy our adventure. Every day and every activity was meticulously organized and ran smoothly. Our tour guide, Alex, ensured we were on time and well-prepared for each day's activities. She briefed us every evening about the next day, advising us on what to wear and bring. Alex was brilliant – caring, knowledgeable, and passionate about Uganda and its wildlife. She shared many interesting stories and facts about Uganda and African culture and traditions. We enjoyed spending time with her in the evenings, but she also respected our privacy. Alex made sure we interacted with local people, participated in their activities, visited a local school, and tried local food. Dancing and having fun with indigenous people was a highlight.Our driver, Mande, was also excellent. We felt safe with him behind the wheel, and he always ensured we were comfortable and had the best views of animals and landscapes during our drives and game drives. He made sure we could take great photos without any obstacles.The accommodations improved each day. Staying in camps and hearing the sounds of birds, monkeys, hippos, and other animals was an unforgettable experience, like a symphony of nature. The quality of the rooms and tents was amazing, with comfortable beds and beautiful interiors. The food at every place was delicious – be prepared to eat a lot! Every staff member at each lodge treated us wonderfully; they were kind, smiley, and eager to hear about our adventures.We decided to visit Uganda after watching the documentary "Chimp Empire," which was filmed in Kibale National Park. It fascinated us with ichimpanzees. However, we quickly discovered that Uganda has so much more to offer! We saw all the wild animals up close, feeling like we were in a live National Geographic episode. Observing hundreds of animals eating, feeding their babies, playing, or hunting was incredible. Uganda's beautiful landscapes, safety, rich culture, and kind people made our visit extraordinary. Every forest and safari we visited was breathtaking, and Murchison Falls is a must-see!Chimpanzee and gorilla trekking were the highlights of our trip and truly unforgettable experiences. We never imagined we would be so close to gorillas, even being touched by them and watching them play nearby! The rangers' communication ensures you'll see these magnificent animals, and your safety is their top priority with armed security walking with you.Uganda is a must-see country. In our opinion, while all African countries are impressive, Uganda offers it all. You can see lions, leopards, crocodiles, hippos, beautiful birds, fascinating primates, and stunning landscapes. Choosing Mukisa Safaris was the best decision we made, as they ensured every day of our trip went perfectly! We highly recommend Uganda and Mukisa Safaris.Iwona2024-07-11Uganda 20 day trip!! Spectacular This experience has been so great from beginning to end!!! From the time I reached out to Richard till the end everything was super smooth . John our driver and Jazel our guide were so wonderful!! they made the trip seamless and their attention to detail is incredible. Our 20 day trip with Mukisa safari was by far the best vacation we have taken!! Uganda it’s a beautiful country and the people make you feel like family!!! From the car to the hotel, restaurants and activities everything was planned beautifully! We had a lot misconception and worries but none of it happened, they made sure we we're save comfortable and happy!! . Please take my advice and book with Mukisa Safari you will not be disappointed!esther45442024-06-26The Best Safari Company in Uganda! What an unbelievable experience! We cannot praise highly enough the organisers of this trip, our hosts Mukisa Safaris with Richard Kabazzi the company owner, and our amazing, all knowledgeable, kind, passionate and loveable Tour Guide - Hami - no question too hard, nothing to much trouble, and every request greeted with a smile and an action plan, plus her brilliant Driver - Sam. Some of the roads we drove over were worse than diabolical, but we never had a single worry with Sam at the wheel. We had nothing but total confidence in his driving ability. Everything went to plan from the pickup at the airport through accommodation bookings, van transfers from one lodge to the other, timing, fuel and comfort stops, fun stops to purchase roadside nibbles like bananas, pineapples, Jak fruit and BBQ corncobs, lunches on the road, entry tickets to game parks and safaris. Everything went without an hitch…and ‘Oh My God’ the safaris. They were so well organised. Naturally, hanging out with Gorillas was the pinnacle. We had a mother Gorilla with a baby on her back ‘pose’ for photos just a couple of meters away from us before sauntering off into the jungle. Gorillas, closely followed by, in no specific order, rhinos, elephants, giraffe, monkeys, chimps, lions, birdlife, herbivores by the thousands, a croc or two, and the hippos. The Safaris were so well organised each with a guide, animal trackers, and one or two guards with weapons (only firing as a scare tactic in case of cranky elephants). The Ugandans take their world heritage parks and animals so seriously. It was uplifting to see such care. Hami also organised the opportunity for us to visit two primary schools where we donated pencils, pens, writing pads, apples, and personal hygiene items for girls, many of whom have to miss school due to their parents financial inability to purchase such items. Hami also arranged for us to visit a ‘Pygmy’ camp - native jungle people who the government have removed from the national parks and who have found it difficult to assimilate into modern Ugandan life. The people of Uganda are so vibrant, and friendly, and the colour in their clothing...eye-catching. Children waved at us in the van every inch of the tour which pretty much circumnavigated the country. We cannot recommend Mukisa Safaris highly enough. They are Simply the Best!Gary E2024-06-25Best experience ever We’re very happy about our experience with Mukisa safaris, since the airport the service of our guide and driver was incredible, all the activities was perfect planned, we’re very satisfied about all the lodges that we stayed, delicious food and incredible views, obviously the best part was see a lot of wild animals and be able to connect with people in the communities. 1000% recommended, the best experience that we have had. Very grateful with all the Mukisa’s team (Veronica, Salomon & Richard) -Samantha & Enrique of Mexico 🇲🇽samantha m2024-06-20Uganda with family! The most wonderful tour, Hami and John create a home away from home/extended family feel while introducing us to the absolutely gorgeous parks of Uganda. So lucky and thankful to have been able to spend this time with them! Would recommend Mukisa to everyone with no reservations!Annie T2024-04-29Beyond Words There are no words for how incredible this tour was. I had high expectations and a lot of excitement for this trip and I was nervous I was setting myself up for disappointment, but no such thing. Richard reached out several times ahead of the trip to help us prep and ensure we had what we needed. When we arrived, the tour accomodated our arrival time to Uganda. We had an incredible experience at every park. Veronica was an amazing guide sharing her love of Uganda and passion in what she does. Sam, our driver, he kept us safe and entertained especially on those long drives. We saw everything we were hoping to and more and were able to experience some of the culture. The accommodations were great and the food was excellent. I cannot recommend this tour and this tour company more. We were told that Mukisa means blessing, and that they were. Thank you for making a memory to never forget.Larissa N2024-01-14Fantastic Experience I had an amazing experience in Uganda. I traveled solo and Richard made sure I had a female guide. My guide and driver were the best and they always made sure I was feeling safe and my needs were met. Every experience on my 17 day intensive safari exceeded my expectations. Richard gave me a solid plan and we covered so much territory. I want to say that without my amazing tour guide Giraffe, otherwise known as Mable and my beast driver John the trip would have been different. They listened to me and my wants and went above and beyond to give me a trip of a lifetime. I can’t recommend this company enough.Marci B2024-01-04Uganda 8-day safari with rafting My wife and I decided to visit Uganda for multiple reasons. We were looking for a good local provider and somehow found Mukisa Safaris (Richard), who replied to my email about the possibility of having a safari in Uganda. Richard was super responsive and until the end, we agreed on an 8-day safari in Uganda (mainly west incl. Chimps and Gorillas and rafting). This was my 3rd safari in Africa after 2 in Tanzania and I can truly say that this one was probably the most special one. Gorillas and Chimps are fantastic and the welcome from the local people and communities was extraordinary. We had a great guide Veronica, she was an amazing company, organised everything for us and was very very knowledgeable about birds (and there were plenty of them!). The driver Salamon was amazing too, we had a lot of fun with him and he was very kind person, too. If I could give 6* I would definitely do it. It was such a relaxing vacation for us that is it almost unbelievable that we were travelling so much every single day. I think we left a piece of our heart in Uganda. PS: Do not hesitate to ask/change the offered schedule, we had to change the direction because of our flights and there were no issues with that. The quality of the offered accommodation (I think we had it at quite a low cost for Africa) was perfect, nothing to complain about at all! Thanks again Richard, Vero and Salamon! Hope to see you soonPS2: Don't be afraid to go during the rainy season in Autumn (we went in Nov), the weather is completely fine, you will get a bit of rain but it doesn't last too long and it's hot so it doesn't matter, but at least it is not dusty and there are also very few mosquitos (low risk of malaria!) and tourists! PS3: What we heard Uganda seems a way better place to go than Rwanda in terms of safety and gorillas, plus you have more to see.Martin J2023-12-22Amazing holidays!!! 16 days private tour through Uganda Thank you to Richard and his team, espacially Hami our guide and John our driver!Due to some cirumstances we had to change our plans a few times, but Richard was never tired and ajusted our schedule accordingly to our needs. Hami and John made our trip very special as they went above and beyond to make our holidays in Uganda an unforgettable time with amazing memories, starting from day 1 until to the end. Everything was well organized, food was amazing and the accomodations great. Booking with Mukisa safaris was definitely the right decision, we will book again on our next trip to Uganda.MartinHamburg2023-12-03
