Best adventure Safaris in Uganda
I loved everything about my experience. The itinerary was well thought out and customised to our preferences and budget, with helpful guidance from the Vacanza team. The customer care was superb. An excellent deal through and through for the service we got. The highlight of my trip was the queen Elizabeth tour and the gorilla trekking. If you choose to do gorilla trekking, be ready to trek. Let us say I was not ready. Choosing them again for future safari experiences

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $2,700 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 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour take?
+
Plan for about 120 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 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour?
+
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 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour?
+
Around 0 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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour 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.
What is included in 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour?
+
Included: Private transportation; Other; Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: International Flights; and Visa fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 221 listed pickup locations in and around Kampala. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to 5-Day Private Guided Gorillas and Wildlife Safari Tour if the weather is bad?
