    The best Safari ever

    Wild Jungle Trails Safaris was a pleasure to work with from our first contact with Joyce in the office to saying goodbye to Twaha and Frank after a fabulous 9 days! We started in Murchison Falls and made our way down the west of Uganda, including incredible game drives, chimpanzee trekking and gorilla trekking and stunning river cruises! I highly recommend this Ugandan owned safari company to anyone interested in experiencing the lovely hospitality of the Uganda people and the diverse and beautiful national parks of this very special country. My group of 11 are well-travelled people and we agreed this adventure was the best of all of our travels! please book with them - Thanks wild jungle trails Team

    A lifelong dream comes true

    For wonderful 9 days I was on safari in Uganda with Wild Jungle Trails and coordinator Twaha. An individual program was put together for me according to my wishes. QENP and Ishasha, Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Lake Bunyonyi and Mburo National Park. I am amazed by the wonderful landscapes and magnificent animals of Uganda. Twaha made it possible for me to see the big 5 and many other animals - we were often the only vehicle there! The special thing about Wild Jungle Trails and tour operator Twaha is that as a guest I was shown and able to do so much more in addition to the announced "program". I look back very fondly on our trip to the tea fields and to the Ankole cattles, the visit to a Ugandan village cinema and the wonderful hike around a lonely crater lake. I will never forget our spontaneous trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo and the happy meeting with the market women there or the last day of our trip, actually only the return trip was supposed to be on the agenda. But Twaha organized something very special for me: I hiked with ranger Rebecca (such a great woman) for 2 1/2 hours in the Mburo National Park with the giraffes and zebras. Just beautiful. I was very impressed with the choice of accommodation. In addition to the beautiful lodges, I also spent two nights in the lovely guest house of a project for women in the Bwinde region, Ride 4 woman. Here I was able to purchase beautiful, authentic handmade fabric Ugandan gifts for my family and friends at home. I was even able to visit the Batwa Pygmy Women and it gave me great pleasure. For me as a woman traveling alone, Twaha's reserved nature and always forward planning was a very pleasant experience. He made sure I was well equipped and always made sure I had the best spot, whether on the boat trip or visiting the wonderful gorillas. Humor was never neglected on this trip. I want to come back with friends and one thing is for sure, Wild Jungle Trails and Twaha will host our trip.

    9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange): questions travelers ask

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

    How much does 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $4,624 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 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) take?

    +

    Plan for about 216 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 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Kampala, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange)?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 216-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange)?

    +

    Around 1 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 216-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) 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 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange)?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Dinner; Breakfast; Chimp and Gorilla Tracking Permits; and Parking fees. Not included: International flights (From/to home); Additional accommodation before and at the end of the tour; and Personal items (Souvenirs, travel insurance, visa fees, etc.). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Kampala. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) 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 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange)?

    +

    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.

    What happens to 9-Day Uganda Primates - Lions & so Much More (Midrange) if the weather is bad?
