Awesome time in Uganda and Rwanda My husband and I did a 6 day tour in Rwanda and Uganda trekking for gorillas and monkeys as well as did a safari in Queen Elizabeth NP and boat cruise. It was fantastic! We were well taken care of with Bernard. He is a great guide and driver. The itinerary and accommodations selected by Nicholas was superb. The lodges we stayed in were fantastic. We would highly recommend booking with Africa Tours Adventure.

Highly recommend this company, friendly private guide, good accomodation, amazing nature I highly recommend Africa Tours Adventures. All communication with Nicholas was smooth and easy. Our private guide Mili was the absolute best and accommodated all our needs. The accommodations were amazing, they exceeded our expectation by far. At the beginning I was hesitant to transfer the money in advance, but I trusted the rest of the good reviews and everything worked out perfectly. We have absolutely no complaints about this tour. We also found the prices a lot more competitive than with the rest of operators.

7 days Uganda Safari I travelled with a friend to Uganda and Africa Tours Adventure was the right choice! Very well organized and we saw all highlights on the tour ( specially to mention the big cat tracking with a rancher, nature walk with a rancher at lake Mburo etc) During the planning Nicholas was always there to answer every question and cater our extras in ugrade lodges etc. Robert our guide and driver during the tour was excellent, always in time, knowledgable and a very safe driver which is very important as the main part of the tour is on dirt roads with mud and potholes.We had a fantastic time and would always recommend to book with Nicholas and his team! Thank you for all the unforgettable memories! Susanne from Dubai

A Once In a Lifetime Trip - Thank you Levan!! The amount of tour options can honestly be a bit overwhelming, but look no further - I would HIGHLY recommend Africa Tours Adventure for your Uganda trekking experience. Before we even booked with them, they were so easy to work with and Nicholas quickly answered all of our questions and provided a detailed itinerary that could be customized based on our preferences. Once we were actually on the tour, Levan our driver/guide was phenomenal. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the land and its people and was always willing to answer questions or ask you questions about what you were interested in. You obviously spend a lot of time in the car during this trip, and it never felt like there was a dull moment. Plus, he is an absolutely fantastic driver. The roads in Uganda are a bit all over the place, but he handled them all masterfully. He went out of his way a few times to make sure we saw things that we wanted to see. He heard us mention that we didn't get to see lions on a safari we went on in South Africa and changed the plan for the morning to include an incredible hour spent among lions, which was otherwise not on our itinerary!! And he did this without sacrificing any other activities AND we never felt rushed - a truly amazing guide! My wife and I did a 5 day gorilla trekking experience, and our only regret is that we didn't have longer. Our journey also included stopes at Kibale to see chimps, a drive through Queen Elizabeth National Park (the boat cruise is an absolute MUST), and kayaking on Lake Bunyonyi. All of our accommodations were next level (Turaco Treetops and Kiho Lodge standing out in particular) and it was so nice to not even have to think about these details. Thank you to Nicholas, Levan, and everyone else who helped make this possible. We can't recommend them enough, and if you're considering them for your gorilla adventure, you will not be disappointed in choosing them.

10 day safari and gorillas We just returned from Uganda Africa that Nicholas helped us plan. It was absolutely amazing. I chose this company from the great reviews on Tripadvisor. Now I’m writing my own to let everyone know that if you’re looking for a great company to work with this is the one. Also request Richard for a guide he was amazing and by the end of the trip he felt like family. We’ve been on many trips around the world and this is the first one my husband teared up and didn’t want to leave.

Once in a life time Safari experience with Africa Tours adventure and Levan We did a 13-day trip in Uganda last July with Africa Tours Adventures. They are an exceptional company to work with. Nicholas, who tailored our trip based on our preferences and budget, put together a fabulous experience visiting Uganda - from Ziwa to Murchison National Park, Kibale, Bwindi, Lake Bunyoni and Lake Mburo. The diversity of the activities ranging from game drives, boat rides, nature walks, chimps and gorillas trekking contributed to making this trip such a memorable one experience. The lodges (luxury) were excellent, with a special mention to Turaco Treetops. The success of this trip was largely due to our guide, Levan. Levan is not only an excellent and safe driver, but he has also had an eye for spotting animals and is very knowledgeable about them.So, if you’re planning to visit Uganda, I highly recommend Africa Tours Adventures with Levan on your side!

Wonderful Experience with a Great Company & Guide I booked a 5-day safari to SW Uganda (Bwindi for gorillas & Queen Elizabeth NP for safari/chimps) with Africa Tours Adventure that took place in mid-December 2023. It can be a little overwhelming to decide on a tour operator when you're halfway around the world, but after reading many reviews and looking very closely at the different safari quotes I received, I decided that Africa Tours Adventure was the most organized, best reviewed, and fairly-priced option available. I'm happy to say that I was not wrong! I had an EXCELLENT experience from start to finish, with clear and direct communication from Nicholas helping me select the best itinerary and hotel options. He was always responsive and quick to reply, and although it did initially seem risky to send a sizable monetary deposit to a strange company in a foreign land, I never doubted Nicholas, and based on his good communication, I always felt assured that I was in good hands. In every way, this is a trustworthy and dependable operation. I was also a female traveling alone so I was somewhat concerned about safety and security, but my guide Barnabas was there every step of the way, providing peace of mind. I wasn't sure how it would be traveling alone with a guide for five days, but Barnabas made it easy with his animated conversation and good attitude... I dare say we became friends over the course of our days traveling together. I could not recommend Barnabas more highly as an absolute professional and top-notch guide. He has years of experience, a teaching degree, and all the certifications for Ugandan tourism and wildlife education. This man knows his Ugandan wildlife! In particular, Barnabas is a world-class birder and knows almost every one of Uganda's 600+ bird species. I learned more about African birds than I ever thought possible, and his passion carries through his work at every location. He also hooked me up with the best Kazinga Channel boat guide (also a pro birder), who is.a former park ranger and wildlife expert. Barnabas deeply respects nature, and this shows. I will also say that Barnabas was always three steps ahead of me in everything we did... he was making advance arrangements, thinking through questions/issues ahead of time, and never left anything to chance. He's also a great driver on very wild & bumpy/twisty roads, and I never once felt uncomfortable or out of control with his driving style. In sum, I felt absolutely well taken care of on this trip, and I am very grateful to both Barnabas and Nicholas and the Africa Tours Adventure operation for being flexible when needed, responsive and professional, and for being knowledgable & personable in every service provided. THANK YOU for a terrific experience!

Amazing trip with the best guide ever! We were on gorilla tracking in Bwindi and it was totally worth it. You should definitely take the tour in the villiage the day before tracking, the orphanage school experience was unforgetable. We also recommend taking gloves and face masks with you to the tracking. Our guide Jovia was great, also she is the best driver in Africa. She explained us everything, tell us all about Rwanda and she was very friendly and helpful. You should really ask for her for the tours from Kigali! Thank you so much.

Excellent experience with Africa Tours Adventure We are an American couple who went on a nine-day Ugandan safari in July 2023 organized by Africa Tours Adventure. Africa Tours Adventure is Nicholas, and Nicholas was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He responded to every inquiry immediately, was knowledgeable and accommodating, and planned a great trip for us. Our complicated itinerary, through four national parks and including three primate trekking days, was completed seamlessly thanks to Nicholas's planning and our driver/guide Moses's handling of the details as we went. Our trip was considered, and priced, as mid-level, but at least a couple of the lodges we stayed in could fit into the "luxury" category. Moses worked hard to make sure we saw as many animals, and different kinds of animals, as we could in the time we had and generally seemed to do what he could to make sure we had a good safari. We appreciated Moses's dedication and hard work throughout the tour. We had a great time. The tour more than met our expectations, and we recommend Africa Tours Adventure without hesitation.
