Speke Uganda Holiday Reviews 

It is difficult to put into words how much we loved our 8 day trip in Rwanda organized by Speke Uganda Holidays. We spent 2.5 days in Kigali, 3 days in Akagera National Park in the east for more traditional safari, and ended with 2.5 days at Volcanoes National Park for Gorilla trekking. Along the way we stayed in beautiful hotels, had delicious food, and were treated by the kindest, extremely helpful, and most welcoming staff everywhere we went. More than the animals, and the beauty of the landscape, we fell in love with the culture, country and people of Rwanda. Their warmth, openness, and strength and resilience was truly incredible. The trip was life changing and we will definitely be back again soon.

What truly made the trip this spectacular was our guide, Nelson, who was with us every step of the way from our arrival to our departure. He is truly the most generous, kind hearted person, who not only had the best insights and guidance for our trip, but went the extra mile every moment to answer our (endless) questions, show us more cultural aspects of the country we might not otherwise see, and share insights into the country, the culture and his own life experiences. He was well and beyond any guide we’ve ever had, and we left feeling we’d made a life long friend.

We couldn’t recommend this company more highly, and recommend Nelson even more. If it was possible to give 10 stars (or more) we would! All the love from us for Nelson and Speke!

speke apartment kitante in Ug are so bad, don't waste ur cash I found cockroaches, dirty sweaty pillows and duvet covered up with ripped stained linen. Ripped and very old towels. The food is rubbish. The foolish house keeper manager argued with me when I complained. When I asked for a refund because I wanted to leave. They later apologized because they didn't want to give me a refund.

For the thousands of dollars they charge, I was so disappointed.

Guys I also found it so nasty that they don't give their cleaners gloves or disinfectants to use. These girls are cleaning upto 10 apartments without gloves. So I refused them to clean my kitchen while I was there because I was grossed out.

If you want to experience Uganda in many ways and not "only" see great apes, then this is the right place for you. Besides impressive landscapes, a unique animal world and culinary delicacies, our guide made special experiences possible by always conjuring something special out of the hat, simply because we talked about it before. We would love to come back right away!
