Trip of a lifetime!
5/5

We had an amazing trip! Many thanks to Edrisa who organized our whole trip and to Martin who basically did it all once we arrived! He drove us from park to park, and in park. He arranged a night safari for us. He arranged for our passports (which I had accidentally left in a safe!) to be delivered to our next location. And he did it all with a smile on his face!
Our two kids are both naturalists and bird enthusiasts, and Martin could name every bird we saw. He was very patient about stopping many many times to take pictures and observe every bird (and other animal). And we saw 4 of the Big 5 (no leopards for us!).
Our accommodations were great, and the people working at the Sentrim Lodges were so friendly. Even though we only spent 2 nights at each location, they got to know us by name. They also went out of their way to accommodate picky eaters and often had gluten free desserts!
We could not have asked for a better trip.
It was amazing, totally out of this world, and mpre than we could ever hope for.

Unforgettable
5/5

Edrisa and Obed were super professional, on time, and a pleasure to be around. Both were very patient and were excited to show the beauty of their country to us.
The days passed by fast and with good energy.
I highly recommend African Finfoot Safari. Their service was easy from the first contact, smooth communication and always answering my questions.

Outstanding Safari – Perfectly Planned with an Exceptional Guide!
5/5

Our safari was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The entire tour was planned to perfection – from the schedule and timing to the breaks and accommodations. It was clear from the very beginning that this team are true professionals who love what they do and know exactly what matters.

A special highlight was our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, and you could feel his passion and experience with wildlife and nature in every moment. Thanks to his sharp eye and calm approach, we were able to spot an incredible number of animals – including some rare sightings we would have definitely missed without him. He also shared fascinating insights about the ecosystem, animal behavior, and local culture, making the safari not only thrilling but also highly educational.

I can highly recommend this safari to anyone. If you’re looking for a flawlessly organized tour with an outstanding guide, this is absolutely the right choice!

Great itinerary, excellent organization, and a fantastic guide, highly recommended!
5/5

We were thrilled with how quickly and professionally African Finfoot Safaris communicated with us at all times. Both the tour operator and all of the selected accommodations and activities more than met our expectations. We would like to express our special thanks to our personal guide and driver.
We are very happy to have booked directly with a local tour operator. This allowed for fair prices and we can be sure that the profits remain in the country. All schedules were perfectly adhered to and all activities were great. Thank you very much for the wonderful experiences we were able to enjoy.

Wonderful Uganda Experience
5/5

We went on an 11-day safari with Charles in September as a couple and had a great time. Charles was friendly, very talkative (you'll see ;)) and professional. Since it was just the two of us traveling with him, the trip was very personal and individual. We were able to express our wishes at any time and gained a truly personal insight into the country, its people, and its culture. We saw and experienced an incredible amount—we were really impressed by Uganda's diversity and we've learned a lot.
Everything was very well organized, and we felt safe and well looked after throughout the trip. It was basically an all-inclusive package with only one task: choosing breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
We also got to know Edrisa, a truly warm-hearted and positive person.
We have already had both package tours and wonderful, completely individual self-organized trips. However, my husband considers this trip to be the most beautiful one for him – probably a good conclusion :) We can recommend African Finfoot Safaris entirely by heard.

It was thrilling exciting and a beautiful experience
5/5


First of all, I would like to mention the professional way and friendly manner in which our mails were answered by Edrisa - thus getting us a nice itinerary together in quite a short time. Really good as I stared booking quite late.
We have visited various countries in Africa and we were enchanted by the diversity of the scenery. Rivers, lakes and mountains and almost everywhere we went it all looked green and fertile. What surprised and deeply touched us all was the enormous enthusiasm with which all people we met shared their knowledge with us. And knowledgeable they all are! This was incredible.
How lucky we were with Charles, our driver guide, and Edrisa the organizer of whatever had to be organized. Charles had a solution for everything. His knowledge on any subject it being either his country, people, tribe or kingdom, game or his favorite topic: birds, whatever we asked, Charles always knew. We felt safe and secure with him.
We also like the way the local community benefits from tourism. Of course I booked rustic standard camps and most of the accommodations met our expectations although. We all found the beds, wherever we slept, very good and comfortable and had our own restrooms. The communication service was just right, it was really good.
We had a wonderful time and hope to be back one day to discover more about your beautiful country

Legendary
5/5

Excellent from initial contact to arrival and departure - communication was prompt and clear. A terrific experience with this operator and will book with them again. Charles and Edrisa provided great insight into more than just wildlife. These guys are top level guys and went out of their way for me. They even secured and arranged a Nile River whitewater rafting trip for me since I was unable to do so, largely due to inactive operators related to Covid. Finally, the moment I knew I made the right choice is when Charles secured a difficult to find and often unavailable Congolese beer for me. Excellent value and I will be back. Kidepo Valley awaits.

Amazing team and unforgattable safari
5/5

We had an unforgettable trip with African Finfoot Safari. Everything was excellent starting from email correspondence with Edrisa who provided us with all the detailed information about the upcoming tour, answered all my questions (trust me I love asking a lot of questions and dig deep into details), recommended the best route for us suitable for 4 days we had, and just was super friendly and helpful.

On our first day in Uganda (before the tour), my husband got sick and Edrisa and Charles (our driver) were so nice and without any issue, let us move the dates of the tour 2 days ahead. Because we had the tickets out of Uganda booked, we had got only 3 days for the tour. Edrisa and Charles rebuilt the route in a perfect way. Those 3 days were just AWESOME. We visited Queen Elizabeth National Park and did chimpanzee tracking on the last day. Saw lots of animals (lions, leopard, elephants, chimpanzee, etc.)

Our driver Charles knows a lot of facts about his country. Not only about animals and parks but also about living in Uganda, local traditions, and real life there. We usually don’t ask common and easy questions, so Charles didn’t get a chance to get bored with us. By the way, his English is exceptionally good.

The car is in a good condition. We had free water all the time, all meals were included, Charles bought a chunk of bananas for us on the way to the park. We stayed in Pumba Lodge which had an amazing view of Rift Valley and very friendly staff.

It was my first safari trip and I’m more than satisfied with it. Thanks to the African Finfoot Safari team for all the work and effort to make our journey unforgettable.

Awesome Trip with lots of animals and action
5/5

We did a short Uganda-Roadtrip with African Finfoot Safaris and Edrisa & Charles did a great job in showing us the beauty of this awesome country. It was possible to customize the trip so it was perfectly suited for us. We climbed Mountains, saw lots of primates and had a lot of fun. Thank you very much Edrisa & Charles and hopefully see you again.

A Perfectly Superb Experience and Trip from Planning to Finish! Couldn't be happier!
5/5

I inquired with several tour operators and chose African Finfoot Safaris because Edrisa excelled at listening to and accommodating my requests while making helpful suggestions based on my interests. The result was a trip encompassing all of the things important to me at a great price. The tour was perfectly executed, with friendly and knowledgeable guides focused on ensuring a great experience. The Uganda portion of the trip was filled with highlights, from gorilla and chimp trekking, to fantastic game drives led by my incomparable guide Charles, to immersion in the local community. In Tanzania, we perfectly timed the tour to see the great wildebeest migration and African Finfoot Safaris even made a last minute change to my accommodations to get me closer to the action. Guide Emmanuel was particularly skilled at putting me at the right place at the right time to see the river crossings and countless other remarkable wildlife sightings. I began the adventure as a solo traveler, and ended it with three new friends (Edrisa, Charles, and Emma.) I highly recommend this tour operator to others seeking a personalized African experience at a very reasonable price.
