Committed to quality safari and trekking experiences
Ngoni is a reliable company. Communication may be at times delayed but when they say they are expecting you: they are punctual and ready, have an awesome and balance 14 day itinerary of safari, primate trekking with engaging cultural activities. Not only, will you be blown away by the proximity to nature - especially trekking as this is a place that has learned to live in community with the animals but you will be charmed by its people.

Ngoni Safari was an excellent choice. They made it perfect!
My wife and I wanted to do something special to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We were excited about the Mountain Gorilla trekking safari. After some research we decided to contact Ngoni Safaris. It was the best decision and the most memorable journey ever. Sedrick from Ngoni help us with planning the trip. He was very helpful and forthcoming. he promptly answer all our queries and provided useful advice. Our guide Steven was awesome! He told us so many things about Uganda, its geography, its people, its culture and the local food. It would take several pages to describe the fascinating encounters with wildlife and the mingling with the locals during these 8 days. The Mountain Gorilla encounter is a once in a life experience. All lodges were located in beautiful locations and were very comfortable. We strongly recommend that you consider Ngoni Safaris for your trip to Uganda. You won't regret it.

Amazing
I recently had a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience in Uganda, and I was lucky to have an incredibly kind and professional guide his name is Hamlet. From start to finish, he was attentive, respectful, knowledgeable, and patient ,especially since I was traveling solo. His calm attitude and sense of responsibility made me feel safe and comfortable the entire time.
He went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and it truly made this dream experience so special for me. I’m grateful for his time and energy, and I highly recommend him to anyone , especially solo female travelers looking for a trustworthy guide.
Thank you again Hamlet for such a beautiful memory. Uganda is truly magical, and people like you make it even better. 🌿🦓🦒

Unbelievably good at his job
Very well organised tour. Hotels, food & days activities were well spaced out. Tour guides from our 3 groups (Reagan, Steve, Elly) all knew their stuff & made trip fun too. Reagan on the other hand is a step above them all with his knowledge of the place, the communities, for food & must of all any animal alive in Uganda. If you’re thinking of going there, don’t hesitate, it’s a trip of a lifetime.

Top organized
We just arrived at the airport after our Uganda experience with Ngoni. Uganda outranged all our expections. It was a once in a livetime experience. We we're able to See Chimps in Kibale, lion in Queen Elizabeth and finally the gentle Giants in Bwindi.
All those Moments were just mindblowing.
The organization done by Ngoni was perfect, and the selection of accomodations was amazing. Our Guide Gard was the top of all. He was a perfect Driver, so precise, we always felt 100% save. He was always always in time, always prepared, had always some more information and was always in a good mood to have a nice chat.
Thank you very much for everything
Greetings Markus and Larissa

Excellent planning and execution of multi day safari tour including chimpanzee and gorilla tracking
I had a great experience with Ngoni safari for this multi day itinerary. The team planned it very well and it happened perfectly. I would strongly recommend them for organizing this tour. I just focused on the experience and they did all the hard work.

Fantastic!
We would like to thank you for all the attention received. Our guide Reagan was exceptional, as we don't speak English, he dedicated himself to learning Portuguese and patiently guided us through 11 days in Uganda. They were days of harmony, joy and many surprises and achievements. Definitely one of the best trips we've ever taken in our lives!!! Thank you very much!

Ngoni Safaris provided a well-planned, customized gorilla Safari
Gard was our amazing driver for our Safari trip from the Kigali Airport in Rwanda to our hotel and then on to crossing the border into Uganda and on to our Lodge in the Rwindi Impenetrable Forest (and back again at the end). He always had bottled water available for us in the car which mattered so much! We felt totally safe with his careful driving (as Rwandans drive on the right side and Ugandans drive on the left). He helped us negotiate security and immigration. We made lovely stops along the way to eat, photograph and purchase items.
In addition, Gard was so knowledgeable and shared his information with us during the trip from sites and wildlife along the drive, the history of the countries, to essential safety precautions. While at our lodge, he would meet with us each evening so we could prepare for the upcoming treks, helping us to rent gators, get masks, and review the supplies to pack. He would cheerfully drive us each day, multiple times (regardless of the early morning departures), and then diligently wait for us (for many hours) while we trekked. While he waited, he continued to educate himself by reading books on the bat populations and bird varieties in Bwindi, to share this knowledge with others. He had just completed his college degree in Accounting (amazing) and yet still continues learning.
One of the most admirable qualities that I appreciated in Gard was his calm and patient personality: nothing shocked him or frustrated him- he was always cheerful and helpful. We did have a Visa issue at the border and he calmly and patiently helped us maneuver through. We also had trouble with ATMs and he would cheerfully drive us to other ATMs until we had success. If we had a question or concern, he would find the answer. If I was getting car sick, he would drive slower and make stops along the way. Gard Florence is the one who made this trip a success, as he totally customized our tour to suit us individually. We highly recommend Gard, as he was definitely worth a generous tip!
Thank you so much Gard.
Ngoni mistakenly double charged us when signing up which took some time to reverse the charges. We scheduled two days of Gorilla Trekng through Ngoni and they were amazing experiences which we will always treasure 💕 We had a beautiful cabin at the border of the impenetrable forest, with delicious meals and excellent service. The temperatures were very chilly in the evening inside the cabin, so they provided hot water bottle and blankets, which kept us warm. The hotel near the airport was excellent and the free transportation to and from the hotel/airport was beneficial.
This was an amazing once in a lifetime experience!

Once in a lifetime Experience
It was an absolutely fantastic experience. The diversity of this trip is incredible and hard to beat; we saw the Big 5 and much more. But meeting the gorillas was definitely the highlight for us. The trip was perfectly planned by Ngoni, and they took care of all our needs during the trip. We didn't have to worry about a thing. A big thank you also goes to our wonderful guide Hillary, who had extensive knowledge about his country, animals and culture. We had a lot of fun together and can only recommend him. This trip was a 10/10!

Magical /spectacular—a truly transformative adventure filled with breathtaking wildlife encounters
Our safari with Ngoni Safaris was nothing short of spectacular—a truly transformative adventure filled with breathtaking wildlife encounters, impeccable daily service from Reagan our personal guide , driver , who’s role included seamless logistics that exceeded every expectation, making it the trip of a lifetime with memories we'll cherish forever.
From trekking with gorillas , cheetahs and rhinos to intimate moments with lions, elephants, hippos and more, every game drive / boat safari was magical. Our guide Reagan was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate and brought the wilderness alive with his knowledge and made us feel completely safe and immersed. We highly recommend Ngoni Safaris to anyone dreaming of an authentic, unforgettable African adventure.
