Dreams came true - If we put together an ultimate wish list before we went, we couldn’t have begun to imagine how much this would beat anything we could have wished for. It all starts with the communication between ourselves and the Lulu Safaris team. Elvis answered every question and query thoughtfully and promptly, regardless of the day or time. He adjusted the plans and tailored them to meet our interests, which meant we included everything we hoped to (and more!) Upon arrival in Rwanda, we were met by our guide for the duration of the trip, Charles. Wow, how lucky were we! Warm, funny, helpful, knowledgable, there’s so much we could say about Charles, the King of safaris. Charles was there every step of the way, helping us and listening to our interests and making it happen. Even though we definitely made him work very hard (day safari, night safari, and then repeat and repeat again) and there was little time for rest, he was always smiling and happy. Thank you Charles for enabling us to cram in everything we wanted. If you prefer a slower pace to us, this would most certainly be catered for too. From an incredible gorilla trek where we came face to face, to a sleeping leopard right before us. With animals on the road as we drove, and beautiful sites during boat cruises. Walking safaris, golden monkey treking, chimpanzees and even reaching the equator point - we couldn’t have ever hoped for more. Stunning views, wonderful lodges with the most incredible and friendly staff who became like friends, tasty food and a whole lot of photography. We were fortunate to visit both Rwanda and Uganda on this trip. Both are beautiful places and we felt very welcome and safe. Most of our trip was in Uganda and we were so lucky to be able to explore the various landscapes and jewels that Uganda has to offer. Charles showed us these with pride which added even more to the experience. Thank you and thank you again to Charles and the Lulu Safaris team for making this trip of a lifetime give us the goal of returning when we can.

Lulu Safaris provided amazing service with a wonderful tour guide, Samuel. Highly recommended! - Lulu Safaris is an amazing tour company. We are a group of 4 (2 couples) who did a 11 day tour with Lulu Safaris across Uganda. My friend and I planned an exhaustive itinerary and shared it with Elvis. He gave suggestions and various options w.r.t the order of game drives, night safari options, hotel/lodge recommendations, etc. The conversations with him over Whatsapp were very easy and it felt he understood our requirements really well. All communications were in English. Our itinerary: Day 1: Start from Kampala at 7AM - Ziva Rhino sanctuary - Lunch - Murchison Top of the Falls - Stay at Heritage Safari Lodge Day 2: Morning game drive - nile Boat ride - Stay at Heritage Safari Lodge Day 3: Morning game drive - travel to kibale - Stay at Kibale Nature Camp Day 4: Chimpanzee habituation experience (4 hours) - Relax - Stay at Kibale Nature Camp Day 5: Queen Elizabeth National Park (QENP) Morning Game drive - Evening Game drive - Stay at Lake Munyanyage Resort Day 6: (QENP) Morning Lion Tracking Experience (Highly Recommend) - Kazinga Channel - Night Game Drive - Stay at Lake Munyanyage Resort Day 7: Lion tracking in Ishasha sector - Night drive - Stay at Enjojo Safari Lodge Day 8: Ishasha Sector - Stay at Rushaga Gorilla Camp Day 9: Gorilla Tracking Experience at Rushaga - Stay at Rushaga Gorilla Camp Day 10: Rushaga Gorilla Camp - Mburo - Stay at Kigarama Wilderness Lodge Day 11: Mburo Walking Safari - Equator - Entebbe Airport Drop Quality of service: Our tour guide, Samuel is a wonderful human being. From the time he picked us up at the airport to the time he dropped us off at the airport, Samuel took great care of our group. He patiently answered all our questions (we asked a lot) and made sure we got food on time, restroom breaks, took care of our belongings at every stop and made sure our overall experience was first class. He provided a lot of information w.r.t game drives in Uganda and the various scenarios one could experience w.r.t animal encounters. Within a day or two, he understood our group dynamics and worked very well with all of us. He has more than a decade worth of experience and one could tell. One of our members is a vegetarian and they ensured there were vegetarian options for every meal. They also planned a birthday surprise for my friend by coordinating with the hotel on that day. Value for money: We compared quite a few tour operators before selecting Lulu. They were a nice balance between comfort, flexibility and cost effectiveness. Though we saw a huge variety of animals and birds, I've added only a select few photos in this review. The parks in Uganda have a lot to offer. Overall, Elvis and Samuel were proactive with timely updates on our requests during the trip. If you are booking with Lulu Safaris, ask for Samuel.
