Independent feedback from travellers who explored Uganda with us
A flawless family safari — patient guides, thoughtful pacing, and help with permits made this the trip of a lifetime. The team genuinely cares about guests.
We booked a family gorilla and savannah combo — kids loved every day. Adventure in the Wild Safaris balanced adventure with comfort and kept us informed at every step.
Outstanding gorilla trekking experience. Guides were knowledgeable, vehicles comfortable, and every lodge exceeded expectations. Would book again without hesitation.
Well-organised overland safari with comfortable 4x4s and excellent spotters. We saw lions, elephants, and chimps — and gorilla day ran like clockwork.
Responsive on email and WhatsApp, fair pricing, and a fantastic Murchison boat cruise. The whole team made our Uganda trip feel personal rather than packaged.
We combined chimps, gorillas, and Queen Elizabeth — everything connected seamlessly. Adventure in the Wild Safaris delivered exactly what they promised.
As solo travellers we felt safe and well looked after throughout. Permits, park fees, and lodge check-ins were all sorted before we arrived — stress-free from day one.
Great value for a private safari. Our guide knew the parks intimately and adjusted the route when wildlife sightings were best. Highly recommend for photographers.
