Absolutely happy with Naseeb Safaris. We booked our tour about 7 month in advance. From first contact with Naseeb he was so well organized, prepared and answered all our questions. We did a two week tour through Uganda with all the main high lights, such as gorilla tracking, chimpanzee tracking, and all the National Parks. Our guide Kenny did an amazing job by taking good care of us. He was very professional, spoke very good English and very thoughtful. We didn't have to think or plan anything, everything was perfectly planned and organized. He made sure we hade an unforgettable experience. Uganda is such a beautiful country.

Amazing safari This was our second time with Naseeb Safaris because the first time was so good. The second time didn’t disappoint. Once again, Naseeb were amazing. They suggested a slightly different itinerary and lodges which worked well. The organisation was first class, as were the lodges, particularly Mihingo, Buffalo and Turaco. They informed, then reminded the lodges that I am vegan and there were no issues – food was superb. We had the same guide as last year, Nasiib – amazing. How he managed to spot everything he did is quite incredible and he always managed to position the vehicle at just the right place for great animal viewings. We are planning our third trip already - with Naseeb Safaris, of course!

An amazing experience My trip through Naseeb Safaris was incredible. I only had 8 days and they made sure I covered everything; from the game drives in Murchison falls and Queen Elizabeth to the chimpanzee and gorilla treks. My tour guide Nasiib was very knowledgeable and did everything he could to ensure I had a great trip and spot as much wildlife as possible. The accommodation and food was also spot on, no complaints. Would recommend.

Wonderful safari! Our 6-day safari with Naseeb Safaris was fantastic. Stops included Kibale for chimpanzee tracking, Bwindi for gorilla tracking and we also visited Queen Elizabeth National Park. The views were stunning, the wildlife was incredible, and the whole experience was just unforgettable. Special shout out to Nasiib, our safari guide, who was absolutely wonderful. He was a super knowledgeable, which came in handy, as we had a million questions throughout the trip. Nasiib went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience. We’ve made a lifelong friend. I’ll definitely recommend Naseeb Safaris to anyone looking for an amazing adventure.

Professionally friendly We had a fantastic experience with Naseeb and his crew! Right from the early stages of planning, they were responsive, attentive, and always ready to meet our needs. Everything was perfectly organized: they took care of every detail, making our trip smooth and unforgettable. Among the various agencies we compared, they were very honest and transparent, providing a fair and reasonable price. Last but not least, a special mention to our guide Nasiib, who made our journey even more enjoyable with his professionalism and friendliness. Highly recommended!

Superb safari - so pleased we selected NASEEB Safaris Following a Google search, we came across Naseeb Safaris. From our very first contact, they were always super responsive, helpful and knowledgeable. Although they had many "off the shelf" safari suggestions on their Website, none was quite what we wanted so they happily created a bespoke 15 day itinerary for us which included Jinja, Murchison Falls, Kibale, QEP, Ishasha, Bwindi and Lake Mburo. They also happily answered the multitude of questions we had and went into further detail on Zoom calls. Thanks to their guidance and recommendations, our safari was amazing. We had the choice of a safari van or safari landcruiser and opted for the latter, which was a bit more expensive. We were glad we did so as it was highly maneuverable and offered great and comfortable game viewing. Our guide and driver (who also curated our itinerary), Nasiib, was simply the best. He met us at the airport, was an amazing driver, sorted out any issues I had with food (bit of a challenge as I am vegan), knew everything there is to know about the wildlife and made the trip a memorable experience. Each place we visited offered its own highlights, from lions up a tree to a lion chasing prey to a massive herd of elephants and giraffes crossing the track to being surrounded by chimpanzees to a very close encounter with a silver back! Of the lodges, Turaco Treetops and Buffalo Lodge were particular highlights. Naseeb Safaris are highly professional and well organised and we will be working with them on another trip to Uganda. Thank you very much.

Highly recommend going with Naseeb Safaris! I went on a 3 day safari with family and friends to see the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and Murchison falls and really enjoyed this trip thanks to Naseeb Safaris! They're a great company to work with, and my tour guide, Nasiib, was exceptional and very professional. I appreciate that he was very friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The head of the company, Naseeb, was very responsive whenever I had questions, and was very flexible in moving the itinerary around and leaving later in the day to accommodate a friend arriving later than expected. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking to go on a safari, and if I can make it back to Uganda again, I'd go with them again myself.
