Had an unforgettable experience visiting many national parks, game drives, rhino/chimpanzee/gorilla trekking and so much more! All the lodges that I stayed at was memorable. Reagan did a great job helping with my itinerary and was very attentive when I had questions. My guide and driver JOYOUS put the icing on the cake. Very patient, knowledgeable, punctual, funny and just all around great human! He made it very special for my birthday. Looking forward to come back with friends in the near future.

Had a wonderful experience with Dav’s safaris! Their communication before the gorilla trek was very helpful, and the team was extremely responsive to all our questions. From the moment Benjamin picked us up from the airport, we had an incredible trip! He made us feel welcome and taken care of. Our accommodation was absolutely stunning and very clean with running hot water and delicious food. We had so much fun and can’t wait to come back and visit Dav’s team again!!

I went on the 4 day golden monkey and gorilla tracking tour through Rwanda and Uganda. Overall, I would say that the itinerary, the stay, and Benjamin (my amazing driver / guide) were incredible! The actual activities of golden monkey tracking and gorilla tracking were great, put on by Volcanoes and Bwindi national parks. But more focus on Dav Safaris. Before the tour, Dav Safaris was very helpful in communication through both email and WhatsApp. When there was an issue with the payment, Dav Safaris had no issue waiting for me to finish the first day to try and send the money again. And about Benjamin, he was fantastic from the start! Always on time, very knowledgeable about both Rwanda and his country, Uganda, and made me feel very safe for my first time visiting anywhere in Africa. 10/10 would recommend Dav Safaris again just for Benjamin's expertise as a driver and tour guide.

We did a full week trekking excursion with Dav Safaris and it was great! Richard our tour guide/driver was excellent as he was always checking in on whether we needed to stop while we were on the road, he answered any questions we had, and he always had great stories to tell. This is particularly important if you are doing the full week tour where you are driving a lot throughout the country. Dav Safaris chose great accommodations with plenty of space, comfort, and friendly staff. The various treks we did were amazing. We saw Murchinson falls, we went to the Ziwa rhino sanctuary, we did a game drive, we saw the chimpanzees, and we saw the gorillas. Communication with Dav Safaris was great and they were always very attentive.

Amazing expérience! Thank you to Bryan, who was very helpful, and flexible with all of our last minute requests. We visited both Rwanda and Ouganda, beautiful countries with beautiful people, fauna and Flora. Congratulations on the conservation work!

I booked only days in advance, yet it was more professionally organised than the other safaris i had done elsewhere. Dav Safaris was also the first to respond among all operators. Smooth operation, safe driving, and great accommodation choices. This was the most comfortable safari I have done among Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. My driver Siro also kept an eye out for all the local food that I wanted to try along the way. I had a great time.

We organized our trip from back home. The Manager, Reagan, helped us with our itinerary which included seeing both gorillas and chimpanzees in Uganda. A few days before arrival, we witnessed that there had been misunderstandings about the dates, and Dav Safari's seemed to be accomodating in making changes to the itinerary. Thereafter, the manager Reagan, became quite rude and unaccomodating. After seeing the gorillas, which was an amazing experience, we had a very early morning start and long drive north to Kibale forrest for the chimpanzee trek the following day. However, the driver/guide told us 6 hours into the drive that we were in a hurry to make the chimpanzee trek the same afternoon due to the park being closed the next day for research purposes. We were surprised and became suspicious and called the Manager who had a long briefing about the park being closed and that there was no way the trek could be done the next day. We stressed to reach the forest in time, did not have time for stops on our way (9 hour journey), had to change clothes in the car and arrived one our late to the chimpanzee trek. Once we reached Kibale forest, we only had time for a very short hike as closing hours were approaching. Neither our bodies or minds and impressions had been recovered or processed from the gorillas the day before, so the chimpanzee trek felt somewhat surreal. As we expected that Dav Safaris lied, we asked the Kibale forest park about closing, which were quickly notified was inaccurate. The Manager Reagan was notified but did not feel sorry about our experience but only bothered that we would not submit a negative review as it would harm his reputation. Considering that we paid a lot of money for our trip, that our itinerary was changed without our knowledge and cut short, I would not recommend Dav Safaris if you want a full, honest , and problem-free experience.

This trip was absolutely incredible. Both Rwanda and Uganda are beautiful countries and seeing the mountain gorillas was just a once in a lifetime experience. Everything was well organised, timings were exactly as agreed, no issues with transportation. Our guide, Charles, did everything he could to make sure we were comfortable and explained what was happening at every stage. He also answered all our questions and was very friendly and warm. We also added on an additional experience of going to a woman's community cooperative to learn banana beer making which Charles arranged for us. It was such a fun experience - the ladies had us up dancing and made us so welcome. The gorilla trek was of course the highlight and the main reason we were there. Again, everything was well organised and you know what to expect. The trek is difficult and you do need a level of fitness, but so worth it to see these amazing animals. All accommodation was clean, warm and comfortable and the lodge on the lake was very nice indeed. Food was always absolutely fine with vegetarian choices available but my tip would be to pack a few snacks if you want something extra in between meals. We didn't and there wasn't really anywhere to buy anything like that. All your drinking water is supplied though. I would highly recommend this tour as it really was the trip of a lifetime.

I don't normally leave reviews, but Dav Safaris and particularly our guide Joyous deserve recognition for what was an incredible 5 day tour of Uganda for me and my friends. First, Reagan was incredibly helpful in promptly devising a customised tour itinerary that included everything we wanted to see in a very short window of time, and for a fair price. The highlights were countless; we saw more than we ever expected to. The accommodation was always comfortable, safe and clean, with delicious food including daily packed lunches for our action packed itinerary. Our tour guide, Joyous, was quite simply the best guide I've ever come across in years of travelling across the world. He was not only a reliable and safe driver despite the significant distances we were covering everyday, but he was always calm, patient and good humoured. We learned a lot from him about Uganda, and became fast friends. The resulting experience was one that we will never forget. If you're visiting Uganda, there's no need to look beyond Dav Safaris and Joyous - they're as good as they come.

I had a fantastic experience with Dav Safari. I highly recommend to go with Dav Safari. 1. The service was great from the whole team: Reagan was super responsive and helpful as I made my booking super last minute (1 week before trek start). My local guide, Shafik, is the most amazing driver ever. He is also super professional, always on time and helpful, and knowledgeable about the country, safari, and gorilla trekking. I felt very safe as a female solo traveler. 2. The itinerary is very well planned. What’s different/better from the other tours is that you get to stay at Lake Bunyonyi on day 2 and enjoy the beautiful view after gorilla trekking on an island/from a tree house.

We took a tour starting in Rwanda and finishing in Uganda for 6 days which included Gorilla trekking, Lake Buyoni, Nile River, and Golden Monkey tour. The agency was very flexible and made all the changed we requested as it was a very personalized trip. They were also very fast to reply and provide the answers to make the planning easy. Additionally, our driver Amon was really nice and explained everything very well. Also very flexible and made our trip very enjoyable, he was great and very nice. We asked him to take us to a coffee tour one day which was not part of the plan and he was flexible and found a great tour in no time. Thank you Amon for the great hospitality. Would definitely recommend Dav Safaris if you are planning a trip to Rwanda and Uganda.

Dav Safaris are a great tour company. When my girlfriend and I were looking at a trip tp Uganda or Rwanda to see the gorillas we found Dav Safari, as a very affordable option. We were in constant contact with Reagan who was very helpful in answering all our questions. For our actual tour we had Ronald, and an intern called Godwin. I can not recommend Ronald enough, his knowledge of the country is unparalleled and he is so helpful as a guid, stopping whenever we asked for fruit and water and to give us more insight about the area we are in. Godwin was also very helpful and was learning a lot from Ronald, I have no doubt he will also be a very good guide. Just a note, that the hotels we stayed at weren't for everyone. Dav Safaris do offer options of upgrades to hotels, so I recommend you research the hotel they suggest and see if it is to your liking (we opted for a very budget friendly option, so this is in no way reflective of Dav)

What an incredible time. I was greeted at Entebbe airport by a booking agent and my lovely tour guide and driver, Joyous, who was quite possibly the best road trip buddy to have. I did a 5 day trip, including Chimps in Kibale and Gorillas in Bwindi. Joyous, whom I became quick friends with, was a delight to be with, and he was there every step of the way during my journey. He, and the staff at the lodges were attentive and friendly. Be aware that most lodges do not have reliable wifi or power, an attestation to the country, not to the lodges specifically. Also let it be known that tips are expected throughout your journey to other guides (gorilla/chimp guide, guide in Bigodi), so bring a few bills with you during each excursion, and know that you are supporting the community and local families. Sit back and relax, while Dav Safaris takes you to the beautiful rolling hills in the countryside of Uganda. These five days were a highlight during my month-long journey.

The tour was completely amazing. Uganda has too much to offer because there are so many landscapes with a lot of animals and nature. My guide, Benjamin, was also a big highlight. He was so helpful and trustworthy. I really recommend it

This was really really special... After a 2hrs hike through the rainforest we found the Mucunguzi family. These giants were very impressive, the silverback the women and some little ones they were all there. Completely out in nature in their own environment. The guides were very good and respectful. And the car (4x4) was really comfortable as well. Can def recommend this tour with DAV Safaris.

We had a wonderful time with Dav Safari, and I would highly recommend them to anyone traveling to Uganda. From the onset our interaction with Regan was great. He was responsive, transparent about the pricing and flexible in booking us an itinerary we wanted. Our guide Shafiq was excellent. He was professional, very experienced and a great driver. He kept us safe on some very bumpy roads. We did a seven day tour covering Murchison falls national park, Queen Elizabeth national park, Zwiwa Rhino sanctuary and Bwindi Impenetrable forest. The safari experience we had was fabulous and unforgettable - we saw so many animals - monkeys, Ugandan cobs, lions, buffaloes, hippos, rhinos, gorillas, hogs, water bucks, elephants amongst others! Uganda is also a bird lovers paradise and we saw many rare bride including kingfishers and eagles. Our favourite part of the tour was the boat cruise down the Kazinga channel in Queen Elisabeth National Park. Our second favorite activity was the Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi Forest, but it was all amazing, and we would recommend Uganda as a hidden gem destination to anyone interested in visiting. The accommodation was also very good. We particularly liked Rushaga Gorilla Haven lodge, Tembo Safari Lodge and Nkundwa Nile view lodge. Food was also good (although we think it was a bit too much food for us, however it was delicious). We truly are happy we went with Dav safari and supported a local Uganda company. We were generally touched by the warmth of the Ugandan people and truly loved the country. I hope one day to return to this beautiful country and will happily give my business to Dav safari again.

My wife and I chose Dav Safaris for our week in Uganda. It was our first time visiting the country and were warmly welcomed by the team at Dav upon our arrival. During the entire week, our guide Benjamin was professional, knowledgeable and overall great company. We take away great memories from our trip and would recommend Dav to our friends and family. Thanks for everything guys!

I've been with Dav Safaris on a "12 Days best of Uganda Wildlife Encounter"- package, including Gorilla and Chimp trekkings and I had a lifetime experience. It started with the booking of the trip, with Reagan being available, helpful, swift and kind as well as flexible within the package. Once booked it only got better with the actual trip... which was just perfect: selected activities/safaris/parks/meals/accommodation. And the best, my guide and driver Boaz had eagle eyes. He could spot animals and scenes miles away, when some other cars would just have passed without noticing, and patiently and eagerly assisted me in taking the best pictures. He was also very flexible - when possible - on some of the planned activities to take for example into account the incoming weather or other changed preferences. Definitely a big shout out to these very professional and kind guys, who made from this lifetime experience in Uganda a complete success.

We did the 3 day gorilla tracking and it was amazing! Everything went as planned and Benjamin made sure we made it there safely and on time. Would 100% recommend! Couldn’t have asked for anything better.

We did the four day golden monkey and gorilla trekking experience with Davs Safari and I am so so happy that we chose them as a safari company. We had the best time. Our driver and guide was Richard and he was such an incredible person. I don’t know how he managed to do such long and times very difficult drives. My friend and I felt so safe with him driving and generally being in his care. Richard was a very kind, cool and lovely guy. He was excellent company and really took care of us. Obviously the trekking and the sights were out of this world! They were breathtaking and they are memories I will cherish for the rest of my life. The hotels that we stayed in and the food that was included were really amazing and there isn’t one thing I could complain about. If you are considering a trip and looking for a reputable company that will take care of you, even if you’re a solo traveller or two girls like us or more, do not hesitate to book with Davs. I promise you won’t regret it!
