5.00We had an amazing touring experience with Afreek Tours. We had originally booked our tour with a different company that scammed us and our friends referred us to Anne - Afreek tours - she went above and beyond to make sure the rest of our safari experience was well planned and unforgettable. She planned the itenery and lodges within a short notice of one night and made sure we were comfortable and safe after a nasty experience. I would recommend Afreek Tours in a heartbeat. Our family believes that she was the angel to our rescue when another Ugandan touring company took all our money, scammed us, did not make any hotel bookings and gave us a hard time. Our family is very thankful for her professionalism, kindness and care that she took whilst on our safari from Rwanda to Uganda. She has the best driver guides who were so knowledgeable, friendly, kind and trusted. Thank you Anne for turning our safari experience that was a night mare into a fun, memorable one. Your itinerary was very well planned ensuring we get to experience all of Uganda’s awesomeness including indulging in traditional organic foods, coffee experience, vanilla experience, chimpanzee tracking, boat ride at Mulchison falls, hike up the falls, sundowner at a beautiful lodge and many many more lovely memories. We are thankful to have met you and would recommend Afreek Tours to all our family and friends. Roshni

4.00Wow, just wow! Our Uganda safari with Afreek Tours was hands down one of the most amazing trips I've ever taken with friends. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family - the guides were so warm and knowledgeable, and the local communities welcomed us with open arms. The highlights? Where do I even start? Seeing lions lounging in trees (who knew they did that?!), tracking gorillas through the misty forests (we got so close I could see the silverback's eyelashes!), and that magical night drive where we watched lions on the prowl - absolutely unreal experiences I'll never forget. What really made it special though was how well taken care of we were. The lodges were stunning, the food delicious, and our guide knew exactly where to take us for the best sightings and experiences. That afternoon cruising the Kazinga Channel with cold drinks, surrounded by hippos and elephants? Pure bliss. If you're thinking about booking with Afreek Tours - just do it! We're already planning our next adventure with them. These guys don't just give you a safari, they give you memories that last a lifetime. Pro tip: Bring good binoculars, break in your hiking boots before the gorilla trek, and get ready to fall in love with Uganda!
