Wow! We had the best trip of our lifetime in Uganda. We didn't have so much time to visit the country, but Dark Hills Uganda made sure our days were filled with the most amazing activities as we wished for, like chimp & gorilla tracking. Our guide Robert is the funniest guy ever and always made a smile on our face. I would 100% recommend to travel with Dark Hills Uganda!

I had to come to a holiday with my wife from South Sudan and we were picked up at Entebbe International Airport. We went to the Eastern National game park where we saw Mt Elgon and very many animals including zebras,hippos ,antelopes and so many other animals. We also saw the wonderful scenery that Uganda boosts and we were so happy to be in Uganda...Thank you Dark Hills Uganda for the wonderful experience and we are looking forward to having another trip..

Thank you Dark Hills Uganda for the wonderful and exciting time that you had with me during our tour where i enjoyed the source of the Nile, hiking on Ssipi falls and the Mountain Elgon National Park. I loved the enjoyed bird watching where i enjoyed seeing so many kinds of birds and so many animals. Mt Elgon which i had never had about but got a chance to see with my naked eyes is something that i enjoyed so much..
