Independent feedback from travellers who explored Uganda with us
Gorilla permits, transfers, and lodge standards were all handled professionally. Our ranger briefing was thorough and the trek itself was the experience of a lifetime.
We travelled with Adventure in the Wild Safaris and are grateful we chose this team. From the first enquiry to the final day, communication was clear and the itinerary felt personally tailored.
From airport pickup to final drop-off, everything worked. Adventure In The Wild Safaris is professional, warm, and clearly experienced with international 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.
We chose Adventure in the Wild Safaris after reading reviews and were not disappointed. Bwindi gorilla day and Lake Mburo extension were both superbly organised.
Knowledgeable guides, clean vehicles, and thoughtful itinerary design. We felt we saw the real Uganda without rushing — exactly what we wanted from a local operator.
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.
Well-organised overland safari with comfortable 4x4s and excellent spotters. We saw lions, elephants, and chimps — and gorilla day ran like clockwork.
