A trip of a lifetime
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!

Unique experience with NGONI that you will always remember
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.

Expert-level insights, delivered in an upbeat, fun way.
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.
Incredibly organised, professional and beyond our expectations.
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.

A very serious and professional company
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!

A Perfect Holiday In The Pearl Of Africa
My first trip to the continent spanned about 9 days and I would say it was one of the best trips I have ever been on.
Ngoni Safaris provided a wonderful guide, James, who is very knowledgeable and skilled with past experience working in the national parks as well. He knew how to locate animals and spent time to educate me on the behaviors and adaptations of the various wildlife spotted during the trip. He was also always very helpful and took very good care of me. It was a joy to have been able to travel with him while I was in Uganda. James' capabilities and service alone warrants this experience the "Excellent" rating it has received from me.
The accommodation was all quite comfortable and enjoyable with nice food. The vehicle was spacious and comfortable. Overall, I felt quite safe with the travel arrangements.
Uganda is a beautiful country. I cannot wait to visit it again someday.

Excellent! Unforgettable trip
After many researches on internet, we decided to book our trip with Ngoni Safari. In particular, thanks to their reviews and their post on social medias. Sedrick, the TO owner, is very responsive on Whatsapp since the very beginning providing you a draft itinerary and allowing you to personalize it, if necessary. The price is in line with main competitors but I positively highlight that include entrance fees to all the parks included in the itinerary. It's worth mentioning that all the proposed lodges were located near the main parks/trekking entrance (no more than 5 minutes from the Chimps and Gorillas trekking), with a good value for money.
After booking confirmation, you will receive support directly from Sedrick with all the tips you need to be prepared for your trip.
A special thanks goes to the Allan, our driver, who made our 8-day trip in Uganda unforgettable. His passion for wildlife and nature, other than his excellent driving skills, made our journey even more memorable. Thanks to Allan we had also the chance to taste local street food (Ugandian rolex) and local fruits. During our trip, he was very flexible in rearranging the daily schedule to suit our wishes and allowing us to see as much as possible.
We highly recommend Ngoni Safari for anyone seeking a genuine Uganda trip.

Great trip with Ngoni!
Ngoni safaris (guide David) took us on a great trip through Uganda. Our Kenyan tour operator did not purchase our gorilla permits as promised. Although we had to pay twice, David and Ngoni assured that we had a great trip and were able to have an amazing gorilla experience. David was knowledgeable, patient and kind throughout our Uganda trip. Highly recommended!

Very good value for money, we had a luxury experience for the price of a budget tour.
We did an 8-day Uganda safari with them and were very satisfied.
Guide Reagan was great, we saw so many animals at secret spots around the parks. Lodges were superb and the Land Cruiser was comfy.
Their local knowledge was very helpful in making the most out of our time.
I'd recommend this agency to anyone who want someone they can trust.
