Exceptional customized safari experience
My wife and I booked a private 10 day trip around Uganda with Myler. We actually booked though Chase Ultimate Rewards portal. We had Moses as our guide for the trip and we has exceptional. We saw all the animals we wanted to see (big 5) and the gorillas and chimpanzees. Moses coordinated with local guides at the parks to ensure we had a great experience finding the big 5. He was great to talk with and was professional and polite. We really appreciated him taking us of the beaten path to see some parts of the trip that normally tourists don’t, but we had a strong interest in seeing. He advised us of good restaurants and ATMs, etc. We pivoted slightly due to weather from our initial itinerary however we still covered all the major highlights and activities promised. It was incredibly helpful to have a guide/driver as many of the activities and guides we would have had great difficulty arranging ourselves. Having a guide with local knowledge and familiarity with roads was incredibly valuable. Communication before the trip was good and I would strongly advise having cellular access while in Uganda as it was very helpful to communicate with Moses during our time there. The accommodations were good and varied from an amenity perspective throughout the trip. Some had fire pits and pools/lake access. While others where smaller and had small dining areas only. All the hotels had bars and restaurants on site were we had our dinners and breakfasts. All restaurants at the various properties were able to accommodate my wife’s gluten free and vegetarian diet preferences.
Response from the operator: Hello Mr. Michael, thanks for this wonderful feedback regarding your Safari in Uganda. This Best helps us to improve our trips. We are kindly happy that your trip met the standard as detailed. Thanks again. Best of Regards.

Amazing Experience.
I spent a month travelling around Uganda with a self-drive, expedition-prepared Landcruiser and visited almost every national park in the country. Uganda was a revelation! I had not expected such a richness of wildlife or such great concentration. Uganda has everything that her more famous neighbour Kenya has...plus such once-in-a-lifetime sightings as gorillas and chimpanzees. Queen Elizabeth National Park and Murchison Falls are justifiably the country’s biggest drawcards but if you have time head for Kidepo Valley National Park (in the far north, bordering Sudan). I hesitate to make such a rash statement (with so much of Africa offering so much incredible safari potential...and with so much of it that I am still to see) but if I was pushed into a vote I would say that Kidepo is probably the most stunning national park in all Africa!

10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala cost?
+
Prices start at $3600 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kampala usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kampala is not rushed.
Is 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kampala, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 240-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kampala can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kampala and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 10-Day African Safari in Uganda from Kampala start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kampala within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kampala?
+
On Outty we rank every Kampala experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampala’s Best Experience walking tour, Kampala Walking City Tours (Women-Guided), Kampala Heart of Walking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kampala?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kampala?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
