4 day safari with Insight Safaris

We did a 4 day safari with Insight and it was a great experience. Everything was super well organized by Calah and even last minute changes (extend by one day) were no problem. Our guide, Godwin, was very knowledgable, friendly, and - important - a very good driver, both on and off-road. He went the extra mile to fulfill all our wishes.
Not much needs to be said about the experience of seeing the Gorillas, it's magical. We even saw babies from up close. We are very happy that we chose Insight Safaris, it couldn't have been better.

Hello Georg Melcher,
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful feedback about your 4-day safari with Insight Safari Holidays. We are delighted to hear that your experience was smooth, well-organized, and memorable from start to finish.

It’s great to know that I handled the planning effectively and that even last-minute changes were accommodated seamlessly. We’re especially happy that your guide, Godwin, made such a positive impression—his knowledge, friendliness, and excellent driving skills are qualities we’re very proud of.

Gorilla trekking is truly one of Uganda’s most magical wildlife encounters, and we’re thrilled that you had the chance to see these incredible mountain gorillas up close, including the babies. Experiences like this are exactly why travelers choose Uganda gorilla trekking tours, and we’re honored you trusted us with your adventure.

Thank you for choosing Insight Safari Holidays. We truly appreciate your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back again for more unforgettable safaris in Uganda, Rwanda, or Kenya.

Warm regards,

Amazing trip with Insight

From the planning stage, Calah was very responsive and flexible to accommodate our customized itinerary. We also had to cancel and reschedule the full itinerary only a couple of weeks out from the start. Calah handled this accurately and without question.

The trip itself was nothing short of life changing - it featured gorilla and chimp habituation, Nile fishing, and game drives in Murchison Falls including a night drive. Our driver and guide, Ayub, was very professional, incredibly nice, and made sure we had the best time during the 12 days he spent with us. I highly recommend using Insight for your trip to Uganda and certainly request Ayub if he’s available.

An incredible family adventure

Insight Safari was recommended to us by family members who had booked with them over then years ago and we were not let down. First time visiting Africa and admittedly there were critical voices asking whether it's smart to travel through Uganda with a 9 year old. Let me tell ya - it is!
Calah organised a wonderful three week Safari with a great mix of adventure and rest days. Everything worked out perfectly and even last minute adaptations to our itinerary were not an issue. I can highly recommend Uganda as a destination and with Insight Safari it's bound to be an unforgettable adventure in the most possible way.
Shout out also to our driver for 3 weeks, who took great care of us, shared lots of information about culture and people but yet gave us space to roam on our own.
Last but not least I'd like to add that we always felt safe and the food was delicious!

It was truly a pleasure organizing your family safari in Uganda, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words to your driver-guide for making the experience even more special.

We have just returned from a trip to…

We have just returned from a trip to Africa – my first! Certainly not my last! Our trip to Uganda, Rwanda was expertly planned by Calah from Insights leaving not a T crossed or i dotted. She made us extremely comfortable, responding immediately to any of our requests and making sure that the trip was tailored exactly to our needs. I would not think of going to Africa again without consulting and planning with her. Our stay at Gahinga Lodge was like a fantasy from Shanghai-La. It was the launchpad for our gorilla trek. Seeing these mystical creatures up close was a fantastic experience. The golden monkey experience was wonderful well with expert guides. Our Jeep ride, lean, always timely, with an expert, well informed driver made it a breeze. Excellent connections with the tour guides on the ground filled every minute with 60 seconds of adventure. Calah was certain to make sure everything ran properly from the beginning, middle and end. Still smiling.
