We make sure you make it, and get the most out of it.

Uganda Safaris

Uganda is the country where East and West Africa meet, with our Africa safari packages featuring lush forests inhabited by primates and arid savannahs which are home to a wide array of plains game. Lakes, mountains, tea plantations and waterfalls are some of the landmarks that made an impression on Winston Churchill when he travelled here, leading him to refer to it as “The Pearl of Africa”.

Unsurprisingly the feedback of those who have had the privilege to taste what Uganda tours have to offer seems to be consistent. There is something magical about it, a fantastic vibe created by a mix of elements that combined have the power to metaphorically blow every traveller away.

Rwanda Safaris

Bordered by well-known Tanzania and Uganda, Rwanda is a small country in East Africa with big tourism potential and much to offer budget and luxury travelers alike. With Rwanda tours opportunities to see wildlife and culture as well as hike and relax, we avail you a number of Rwanda tours options to make Rwanda your travel choice so easily.

Rwanda’s headline attraction – and currently the reason for much of its tourism – is its population of mountain gorillas. It’s one of only three countries in the world where you can still find them in the wild, and the leader when it comes to their conservation.

On a trek in the Volcanoes National Park, not far from Kigali, visitors are led by trained guides through the forest in search of gorillas, and can spend a whole hour up close and personal with them once they find them – close enough to see the glints in their eyes.
