Amazing tour of Rwanda and Uganda!

Thanks to Lulu Safaris and my guide Stuart for arranging an amazing trip for me! I had an action packed itinerary that included gorilla and chimp trekking, boating and seeing other local sites. Stuart was a friendly and very accommodating host. I’d highly recommend Lulu for your next trip to Uganda.

Amazing 5-day Game drive, boat tour, Chimp and Gorilla Trekking

Had the best 5-day tour of Uganda with Lulu Safari's. We got to do several game drives, boat ride on Kazinga Channel, Chinp and Gorilla trekking. Our accommodation (arranged by Lulu) was amazing! Food, service and facilities were all fantastic. The best part about our tour was our guide Sarah! From the minute we were picked up we felt so welcome. Sarah went above and beyond to make sure we had an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend booking with Lulu Safaris and requesting Sarah as your guide. She is simply the best tour guide we have had!

Akagera, Bwindi, and Volcanoes Safari

So we did an hybrid safari out of Kigali Rwanda. Includes Akagera, Bwindi, and Vacanoes (golden monkeys). Our guide was Smith and as the other reviews have already stated he’s outstanding. Very observant and quick to help. Also (most importantly) easy to talk to and associate with. He has a very mild demeanor and never showed stress, anxiety, or anger which is amazing considering some of the traffic he had to go through. If you’re going to be in a car for a long time that’s really important. As far as the safari itself everything went as planned. Gorillas are amazing and a must see. Only caution is the road to Bwindi is really really rough for 2Hrs. So if you suffer from car sickness beware. Unfortunately that’s the only way into the park. Akagera was fine for what it is. Small, fairly new park. Lot of brush and limited to staying on the roads so tricky to spot stuff. Would highly suggest going to Elizebeth Park in Uganda instead. Overall couldn’t be happier though. Picked the perfect company for the options we chose.

5 day Rwanda/Uganda - Amazing from start to finish!!!

We just returned from a trip of a lifetime! I cannot even express how much we loved and enjoyed this tour. The booking process was very simple and Elvis was super quick to share info and update our itinerary. From pickup from our hotel in Kigali the process was seamless. Franklin our guide was a pure treasure who made sure we always had everything we needed and more! We visited Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda to see the Golden Monkeys followed by Bwindi in Uganda to see the Gorillas and WOW what an incredible experience to be so close to these wonderful animals. We also visited Queen Elizabeth National Park where we saw a Lion and a huge herd of Elephants! Lake Bunyonyi was our final destination before heading back to Kigali and what an amazing way to end the trip on such a beautiful Lake with breathtaking views. All of the lodges we stayed in were really nice and different in their own special way. I have travelled a lot and this trip was just spectacular. Our guide Franklin was the best guide I have ever had, he was calm, composed and made us feel safe from start to finish, we feel like we now have a friend for life. I will definitely be back to Uganda, the beauty of the landscape and wildlife was truly breathtaking and I can truly say Uganda has my heart. When i return I know exactly who I will use and that is definitely LuLu Safaris with most certainly a special request for Franklin :)

Cultural indifference breeds familiarity!

Trip was okay. Sarah was guide and Allan driver. Pros: - [ ] Punctual - [ ] Helpful at times - [ ] Good driving by Alan but just needs to take time over harder road humps and breaking to consider back seat passengers - [ ] Calm guides -[] Driver knowledgeable Cons - [ ] Used bag containing my lunch as a bin - [ ] No energy vibe from guide - [ ] Left to eat lunch alone on last day of my trip - [ ] Window nob broke so wasn't always easy to wind window down. Informed guides but didn't remedy this. - [ ] No water in car upon arrival. Had to ask; waited 3 hrs - [ ] No ac working in van - [ ] My manual window winder nob came off - [ ] Not organised - [ ] Guide on phone and taking pictures - [ ] As a guest found it somewhat isolating at the back on my own as both Sarah and Alan sat at front talking in their language - [ ] Wasn't always kept informed as to what we were doing but guide and driver talked amongst themselves putting me in a position to constantly make enquiry - [ ] Went to bank and guide literally stood up close to me watching what i was doing. Did bit give me provacy - [ ] Driving through Kampala following day no interaction. Spoke amongst themselves in their language for the next 2 hours laughing and joking between themselves. This happened throughout the 8 hr journey with the odd comment here and there. Elvis seemed occupied elsewhere and had to reach out to him a few times regarding upcoming trip. I would not recommend.

4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.

How much does 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari cost?

+

Prices start at $2450 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 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari take?

+

Plan for about 96 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 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 57 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 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari?

+

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 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 96-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari?

+

Around 20 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 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does 4-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking and Wildlife Safari 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 Heart of Walking Adventure, Half day Kampala City Motor Bike Tours, Full Day Whitewater Rafting. 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.
