Independent feedback from travellers who explored Uganda with us
Adventure in The Wild Safaris Ltd provided good value for money with strong communication and customer service. Our gorilla safari was smooth, well paced, and unforgettable.
Well-organised overland safari with comfortable 4x4s and excellent spotters. We saw lions, elephants, and chimps — and gorilla day ran like clockwork.
From airport pickup to final drop-off, everything worked. Adventure In The Wild Safaris is professional, warm, and clearly experienced with international guests.
Outstanding gorilla trekking experience. Guides were knowledgeable, vehicles comfortable, and every lodge exceeded expectations. Would book again without hesitation.
We combined chimps, gorillas, and Queen Elizabeth — everything connected seamlessly. Adventure in the Wild Safaris delivered exactly what they promised.
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.
Chimp tracking in Kibale and game drives in Queen Elizabeth were highlights of our honeymoon. The guides were friendly, punctual, and genuinely proud of their country.
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.
