A very serious and professional company
5/5

I spent 1 week around Uganda parks, and NGONI organized all things perfectly! Scheduling was arranged in the better way, and accomodations were always amazing and very confortable. Our guide and driver David managed in excelent way all situations, and he was very helpful in many occasions!
During the planning of the tour, Sedrick, the Ngoni Safaris owner, was always quick to answer any questions and provide any clarifications requested.
If I will be back to Uganda, I surely will contact again NGONI!
And I surely recommend NGONI to everyone wants to explore Uganda!
I think that NGONI Safaris and its personnel are They are a guarantee of seriousness, professionalism and attention to the customer!
Thank you NGONI!

Incredibly organised, professional and beyond our expectations.
5/5

We recently completed an incredible 8-day tour with Ngoni Safari Company for our honeymoon, and it was an experience we’ll cherish forever. Every detail of the trip was thoughtfully arranged, making for a seamless and enjoyable adventure.

A standout feature of our journey was the gorilla trekking experience. Observing these majestic creatures up close, including a very new baby gorilla, was a once-in-a-lifetime event that left us in awe. Additionally, spotting a baby leopard was an exhilarating surprise that added to the excitement of our safari. This was all thanks to our guide David. It was actually the first time he has ever seen one in his 9 year experience and he went above and beyond to reach our want of seeing baby animals.

Our guide, David, was exceptional. His professionalism, deep knowledge, and passion for wildlife greatly enriched our experience. David’s expertise and attentive nature made our journey even more memorable, and his dedication to ensuring we had the best possible experience did not go unnoticed.

Ngoni Safari Company delivered outstanding service throughout our trip. The accommodations were comfortable and well-chosen, and the entire tour was expertly organised

We highly recommend Ngoni Safari Company for anyone seeking a genuine African safari experience in Uganda.

Expert-level insights, delivered in an upbeat, fun way.
5/5

Expertly planned. Charming guide. Clear communication. Saw 4 of the Big 5 in 4 hours. Ngoni Safari is the company to use. Eddy was our guide, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Eddy was upbeat, insightful, informative, and seemed to know every other park ranger and tour guide we came across. Eddy is the best. Our group of 5 loved the accommodations Ngoni Safari put together for us in Murchinson Falls Park, staying at Tilenga Safari Lodge, for our 3-day Safari (2 days in the park, and 1 travel day round trip to Entebbe). I recommend you make the best tour decision for you, and go with Eddy at Ngoni. It was overall great value for the money.

Unique experience with NGONI that you will always remember
5/5

Steven was our tour guide, he is an amazing person with full of life, knowledge and always positive despite the difficult journey. Steven filled us with a lot of interesting information about Uganda, wild life, many other things. We have done safari before but this one with Steven was the best and unique.
Ngoni is number 1 safari tour company in Uganda and there is absolutely many reasons for that.
Sedrick the owner was very quick with his responses, Ngoni is a true professional company and top quality employees. We meet other Ngoni tour guides along the way and they were all very friendly like all people in Uganda.
We definitely recommend you to come to Uganda and have this unique experience.
And last, dont forget to tip your tour guide, this means a lot to them.

A trip of a lifetime
5/5

After initial good contact with Sedrick back in 2020, but cancellation due to Covid, we have decided to do our honeymoon with Ngoni Safaris this June. We opted for a 12 days Gorilla, Chimps, Big 5 and nature sighting Safari and what can we say, this trip was incredible. We trusted Sedrick and his team in arranging this trip for us and selecting and booking the accommodations and permits for us. Contact prior to the trip was mainly through WhatsApp, with updates and further info provided upon request.

After all, everything went very smooth and this trip exceeded our expectations (first time travelling in East Africa). With the Gorilla trekking being the main reason to come to Uganda, we can now conclude that every day was a highlight. Our guide, driver and new friend Eddy was one of the main reasons for this. Eddy has a lot of knowledge about the country, the culture, national parks and the animals, and was very happy to share his knowledge with us. He knows every speed bump in this country, is an excellent spotter of animals and overall, a very friendly, social and caring person.

During this trip we visited Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls NP, Kibale NP for Chimp Trekking, Queen Elisabeth NP, Bwindi NP for Gorilla Trekking, Lake Bunyonyi and Lake Mburo NP for a walking safari.

The selected accommodations were great with very attentive staff. At two occasions, a candlelight dinner had been arranged for us which was lovely. Buffalo Safari Lodge in Queen Elizabeth NP was the most spectacular accommodation with elephants coming very close to the cottages and the pool area in their search for water and food.

A few short-notice changes were made to our itinerary, but all were made in our best interest.

We can 100 % recommend Ngoni Safaris and travelling with Eddy. Hope to see you again very soon!

Fabulous experience. Knowledgeable guides.
5/5

Was picked up at 6:30 am for the 10-hr drive to Rushaga gorilla camp. My driver/ guide, Reagan provided expert insights into the geography, the various attractions Uganda has to offer, the towns and cities we passed, and stopped to allow me to take photos along the way, including at the equator. The restaurants where we stopped offered delicious food which was all included in the tourism package. I loved staying at the lodge. The accommodations were comfortable, the food was delicious, and the staff were warm and attentive. I thoroughly enjoyed my gorilla trekking experience and would book with Ngoni again for future tours of beautiful Uganda.

Great experience with Ngoni Safaris! Highly recommend!
5/5

Our 8-day journey through Uganda with Ngoni Safaris, led by our guide and driver, Allanie, was a trip we'll never forget. Allanie was helpful and considerate, ensuring our adventure was seamless and enjoyable.

By happy accident, we booked the premium package, with stays at luxury lodges. The accommodations surpassed our expectations, providing not only comfort but also unforgettable wildlife encounters right at our doorstep.

Even though we had some incredible wildlife encounters on safari the highlight of our trip was the primates. Observing chimpanzees and gorillas in their natural habitat was a breathtaking and surreal experience.

Sedrick, who assisted us in organizing our trip, was able to fulfill several special requests, making our planning process smooth. The itinerary was meticulously planned, allowing us to relax and simply take in Uganda's breathtaking landscapes beauty.

For those seeking to experience Uganda, we highly recommend Ngoni Safaris. Their professionalism and dedication to providing memorable experiences made our safari truly special.

Made us feel safe & took good care of us
5/5

We did a 13 day safari, got to see many animals and stayed at comfortable lodges. We added additional days in Kampala & Jinja because it was home for us as children. Our guide/driver David took very good care of us and we always felt very safe. Planning the trip with Sedrick was real easy, he always responded to my questions quickly. There was four of us and we all had a great time and created wonderful memories.
