"There's a world of difference between a well planned safari
and a sight-seeing tour."
Have You Ever ... Uganda is famous for Mountain Gorillas.
Listened to the unforgettable sounds of an African night?
Dipped your toe in the Nile?
Smelled the rain as it approaches off the hot savannah?
Seen the Central African Rain forest, endless before you?
Tracked wild chimpanzees at dawn?
Felt the thrill of tracking - and finally finding - wild forest elephant?
Been sprayed by hippo?

 

Experience The Adventure Of A Lifetime

All of our safaris are tailor made, and almost all are private groups. We work with our clients long before they arrive in the country to ensure that we are going to give them what they want. We communicate by Email and we chat on the phone.

We ask questions, we discuss, we make suggestions. And we understand that what may be perfect for one client may not be ideal for another. All of this may take a bit of time, but it helps us to get to know you, and it means that your safari will be designed just for you.

Our safaris range anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks taking in the diversity that is Uganda, from the dry vastness of Kidepo in the north, the savannah plains of Queen Elizabeth, the riparian forest and savannah valley of Semliki, the mighty Nile at Murchison Falls, to the tropical rainforest of Bwindi.

We may cost a little more than some other safari companies, but for personal attention, years of experience, attention to detail and superior guiding…isn't it worth a little more?

Whether this is your first trip to Africa or your tenth, your honeymoon, a family reunion, a romantic trip or a good old adventure, we want to get it right for you. Contact us and let us put together the trip of a lifetime for you.

 

What We Bring To Our Safaris
Personal Service
 

We work with you to design the trip to your specifications. No scheduled departures, no lack of flexibility. This is Your holiday



Superior Vehicles
 

We have Land Cruisers and Land Rovers, specially designed for safaris and wildlife viewing. We have full time mechanics who are servicing our vehicles all the time. We don't think breaking down on an African roadside is an integral part of a safari...

The vehicles are designed for safaris with loads of leg room and two viewing hatches in the roof with padded bottoms for roof riding. Safaris shouldn't hurt and we don't think that being crammed into a minivan is the best way to see a country!



Experience
  We live here and we live here full time. Most of us grew up here. But we also have lived in Europe and North America so we know what comfort and service are all about.


Knowledge
  Our involvement with Uganda's National Parks and its wildlife goes beyond just safaris. We are involved with day to day operations in Uganda's parks and with preserving these resources for generations.


Local Know-How
  Our travels all over the country means that we meet people from all corners of Uganda. We have access to information, stories, traditions, news, heritage, and all the little things that make a visit to a new country special.

Adventure

Uganda is a feast for all of your senses. The smells, the sounds, the tastes... and we want to be able to share this with you.

Africa...The way it should be.

The Uganda Safari Company is a family business, run by people with a true love and affinity for this country, its people and its natural resources.




They Said It...

"Jonathan and Pamela put together one of the most memorable experiences of our life. We thank everyone for their compassion, expertise and professionalism in making our safari so wonderful".

-John and Sheila Davis, USA


"We already miss Uganda and wish we could head back immediately! We are thinking of our wonder-guide and really enjoyed his company. Thanks so much for an amazing introduction to the thrill of safaris. We hope to plan another soon. Our memories are forever engraved..."

-The Andrew Family


"I would like to thank you for the wonderful trip you put together for us. I have come back with renewed vigour and have sung the praises of Uganda and what it has to offer".

-R. Clifford, UK


"I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful safari. It has left me with fantastic memories - what a shame it had to come to an end. I never realised beforehand the variety of things that Uganda has to offer in both scenery and wildlife. I always thought gorillas were the main attraction, how ignorant I was to the country's full potential!"

-J. Coles, UK



"The most fantastic trip! In fact, the best trip I have ever done. Uganda is so very different to what I thought it would be. Thank you for looking after us so well".

-B. Cohen
