“We booked a Uganda safari package. The planning was well organised and the team was responsive. Gorilla trekking was unforgettable.”
“They organised everything on our honeymoon: accommodation, food, transport and activities. The cost was reasonable.”
Our Uganda packages on this page range from about $450 to $6,500 per person sharing, depending on length, lodges and season. The lowest-priced option is the 2 Days Mabamba Birding Safari from $450. Every itinerary can be adjusted to your dates and budget, and we only ask for a deposit once you are happy with the plan.
Typically all transport in a 4x4 safari vehicle, accommodation, meals as specified, park entry fees, permits such as gorilla or chimpanzee permits, an English-speaking driver-guide and airport transfers. International flights and travel insurance are usually not included; each tour page lists exactly what is in and out.
The tours on this page run from 2 to 12 days. Short trips focus on one park or one activity; 7 to 10 days lets you combine Bwindi Impenetrable (mountain gorillas), Queen Elizabeth, Murchison Falls, Kibale (chimpanzees), Lake Mburo and Mgahinga without rushing.
June to September and December to February are the drier months with easier roads and trekking; the green seasons (March to May, October to November) are quieter and often cheaper, with the same wildlife.
