Alles top geregeld door Dark Hills. Snelle communicatie, prachtige trip met alle highlights. Geweldige gids/chauffeur. Kortom aanrader!

I had an amazing time in Oeganda. Our tour started Entebbe and we visited Mabamba wetland, Ziwa Rhino ranch, Murchison Falls NP, Queen Elizabeth NP, did a gorilla tracking at Bwindi, and then to Bunyunyi lake, Mburu NP and back to Entebbe. Compliments to Dark Hills for organizing this trip. Our driver Robbert did an excellent job driving and guiding us. When we were too late for a boattrip he called the boating company and arranged for us to do the trip although we were way too late.

We hebben een geweldige reis gehad dankzij Dark Hills. Uganda. Van begin tot eind zorgen ze ervoor dat je, je welkom voelt. De busjes zijn enorm comfortabel, veilig en komen door elk terrein. Onze chauffeur/gids Brian was heel aardig, wist ontzettend veel interessante dingen te vertellen en heeft ervoor gezorgd dat we ons altijd veilig en prettig voelden. We hebben zo veel mooie dingen gezien van berggorilla’s, leeuwen en de prachtigste vogels tot indrukwekkende steden, mooie cultuur en lieve mensen. Een onvergetelijke ervaring die ik iedereen 100% kan aanbevelen!

Wat een geweldige reis heeft Dark Hills Uganda voor ons georganiseerd! De mooiste plekjes van dit prachtige land samengevat in een 12-daagse reis. Diverse excursies, game drives en trackings maakten alles tot een onvergetelijke ervaring! Dank jullie wel Dark Hills Uganda!

Thank you Dark Hills for organising a perfect 12 day trip in your beautiful country. We hope to see you more and more as we will organise more phototrips from the Netherlands!

Indeed a once in a lifetime experience. It was totally worth it, a real safari experience with breath taking views. It was only us, no other people, so we felt it really personal instead of impersonal mass turism. The communication was smooth. We had a wonderful driver named Brian, he solved all upcoming issues and our special requests (eating local food, organizing an extra hike to the jungle) and told us amazing stories about local life and traditions, so if you have the possibility, ask for him personally.

I had an unforgettable 3-day safari to Murchison Falls National Park and the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, organized by Dark Hills Uganda. Our guide, Brian, was exceptional—his knowledge, professionalism and wildlife-spotting talent made the experience truly special. During the game drive we saw lions, giraffes, elephants, buffalo and antelopes like the Uganda kob. The boat safari on the Nile was breathtaking, with nearby hippos, crocodiles and beautiful bird species, culminating in the spectacular Murchison Falls. At the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary it was an impressive experience to walk alongside rhinos in their natural environment. I highly recommend Dark Hills Uganda and Brian for an unforgettable safari experience!

“We truly had a wonderful, memorable experience. Robert was an outstanding safari guide and if all your guides are of his quality, you will be 5 star all the way. He was attentive and helped with all our questions. He got us out on the game drives early and we always saw beautiful animals. Very fulfilling experience”

Wonderful day spent with Richard, our private guide from Viator. Amazing to watch the water drain in different directions depending on if we were north of, south of or directly on the equator. We even received a certificate that listed all the countries and oceans that are in the equator. Live and learn.

“I had a fantastic experience on the Murchison Falls and Rhino safari with Dark Hills Uganda. Brian, ouguide, was awesome—super friendly and full of knowledge about the animals and park. We saw rhinos up close at Ziwa Sanctuary and spotted lions, buffaloes, and elephants in Murchison Falls National Park. The view of Murchison Falls was stunning, and Brian made sure we got the best photos. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend this tour with Dark Hills Uganda!”

Before I went to Uganda, I always drove a car by myself in different country’s. I really thought that I could drive in Uganda too, but my friend who’s living in Uganda did advise against. She recommended Dark Hills, so I listened to her. Couldn’t be happier after all!

I went with a group of friends. Our driver, Robert, also involved to our friendship. It felt like a lovely family. Everyday Robert was happy and in time (not Ugandan time). We traveled all around the country and saw the most beautiful animals. Dark Hills helped us out to plan this trip, to listen to our wishes.
The traffic in Uganda is crazy! But every minute in Robert’s car I felt safe. He is a really patient and well experienced driver. Couldn’t do it better myself.

The most wonderful thing we did was the Gorilla tracking. It was a long drive from Kampala, but totally worth it. Also on the way to Bwindi we saw a lot of beautiful things; different types of nature, the equator, impressive neighborhoods, animals and big hills with gorgeous views I can’t even describe in words.

That friend of mine who is living here, which I write about before, asked me for yéárs to come over to here. I wish I had done this sooner, because I really fell in love with this country too. If you ever doubt about going to Uganda: GO FOR IT! And ask Dark Hills for advise.

Me and my friends had a great trip to Murchison Falls. To see the animals in the wild was amazing. There are many possibilities to see the park and the animals (morning safari, night safari and even a boat safari). It never ceased to amaze us!

Our ultimate goal was to see the big-5, and we did! The combination of murchison falls and the rhino sanctuary was great, as the only missing animals of the big-5 were the rhinos (they are not present in the Murchison Falls national park).

Dark Hills created a custom-made tour for us and helped us achieving the best vacation ever. The driver was really nice and we enjoyed his company, we felt really safe while he was driving us all through Uganda. And he helped us spot all the animals (which is sometimes a lot harder than you think!

Thank you Dark Hills for creating the best holiday ever, you are a big part of why we fell in love with Uganda. We will be back!

Francis was a great coordinator for our questions and we received all answers in advance of the trip. Robert, our guide was fantastic! He is a very experienced guide and knows the park inside and out. We have enjoyed every moment of our travel and taken a lot of photos capturing unbelievable memories, have seen the Big Five upclose and personal, with exception of a leopard which we have seen from the distance.

“Super arranged! I had a great trip to Murchison Falls with Dark Hills. Well arranged from start to finish. I had contact with Francis beforehand and he was able to arrange exactly what I had in mind. Robert was my driver. Nice guy, and is a kind of walking encyclopedia! He knows a lot about the animals and even better: he also knows how to find them in the park! I have seen many giraffes, but also elephants, a group of lions and a leopard in the tree. All in all it was a great trip that I will definitely recommend.”

what a fantastic trip! Beautiful waterfall and saw so many animals!
Everything was arranged down to the last detail. Good driver, ranger who knew what she was passionate about and also knew how to find the animals we wanted to see. Leopard, lions and cubs, elephants, giraffes, buffalos, antelopes, hartebeests, warthogs, hippos, baboons and other monkeys and various bird species including the Egyptian vulture and the crocodile!
I can recommend this safari to everyone. We did 3 safaris by car and one boat safari. Even for people who are afraid of water I can recommend this, if you want you can get a life jacket. I personally didn’t do that as I can swim and it was also incredibly hot. The accommodation was also good, as was the restaurant.
Best holiday ever!

Overall an awesome safari for a budget-friendly traveler. Murchison Falls blew me away and I was able to see all Big 5. My guide’s name was Robert who was very knowledgeable, well-connected in the reserve (key for alerts of where animals are), & a safe driver. Vehicle was a bit dated but very comfortable and performed well in the reserve.
Accommodation was solid, no frills – but the staff were friendly (despite reviews on Google) and the food was great with healthy portions. Beautiful sunrises from the lodge were a plus.
Dark Hills admin was supportive and accessible throughout the trip which was reassuring while traveling alone.
I’d recommend to anyone that’s trying to see the Big 5 without breaking the bank.

I can’t begin to express how incredible my 3-day Murchison Falls & Rhinos Safari was, and it was all thanks to the amazing guide, Robert. Seriously, this guy knows his stuff! His passion for wildlife is contagious, and he made the entire adventure even more special. We witnessed the sheer beauty of Murchison Falls, and I was left speechless by the rare encounter with the endangered rhinos. The itinerary was perfectly planned, allowing us to soak in the breathtaking landscapes, get up close to fascinating animals, and learn about conservation efforts in the area. Our accommodations were cozy, and the whole trip was flawlessly organized. If you’re looking for a life-changing experience in the heart of nature, this safari is a must-do, and having Robert as your guide will make it an absolute blast. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!

Super organised! A long trip but more than worth it. We were in a very nice safari car with our wonderful driver Robert who was always on time. He can spot animals like the best and also knows a lot about them. We started with the waterfalls of Murchison falls, fantastically beautiful! We did 3 safaris and a boat trip, which was great because we saw 15 lions, 3 leopards and lots of giraffes and elephants and more. We also had a ranger with us during the safaris, which made the safari even more fun. The accommodation is good and the food excellent. I absolutely recommend traveling with Dark Hills. A big 10!

Fantastic trip and excellent customer service by Dark Hills Uganda. My guide Nassa was helpful and knowledgeable to the highest of levels, will definitely return for more excursions with this company!

We had a fantastic experience with Nasser. He showed us this beautiful country and the Murchisonfalls Nationalpark. He gave us lots of helpful tips for our remaining time in Uganda.
We’d definitely would recommend a trip with Nasser and Dark Hills.

My friends and I visited Uganda to explore Murchison Falls. Dark Hills organized a tour tailored to our preferences and budget, which turned out amazing. Robert, our guide, was experienced and enjoyable to be around. We highly recommend the night safari in Murchison Falls, where we had close encounters with lions, as well as the boat ride to see hippos, crocodiles, and the magnificent Murchison Falls. Witnessing the big five animals on the first day was a dream come true. Overall, it was an incredible trip, and we’d absolutely choose Dark Hills Uganda again – definitely going to miss them!

I had a really great time! Robert was very flexible and made sure I made the most of my time. We saw all the big 5 plus plenty of other animals. It was truly great. For the fellow travellers, I advise to ask booking a lodge inside the park to be able to book night drives! The best time to see lions is obviously in the early morning and night, but then even after 9am you can still see a lot of other animals so a drive in the park is still very worth it.

My friends and I came to Uganda to visit Murchison Falls, Jinja & do gorilla trekking. Dark Hills custom-made a tour for us, exactly how we wished it to be and within our budget. We had an amazing time. Robert is really experienced and seems to know all the corners in Uganda. Besides that, he is the best company to have and is jolly!

I highly recommend a night safari in Murchison Falls as an additional activity, where we were able to see lions from up close during their hunt for their dinner. The boat ride in Murchison was also great and got us very close to big schools of hippoes, Nile crocodiles and the massive Murchison Falls itself.

It was our dream to see the big five and we spotted all of them on the first day, so amazing!

All by all we had the best trip ever and would definitely book with Dark Hills Uganda again. Gonna miss you guys!

Our Jinja tour with Dark Hills Uganda was an exceptional adventure that uncovered nature’s hidden gems. Discovering the source of the Nile left us in awe of its significance. The Sezibwa waterfalls’ serenity was a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle. The Mabira forest hike brought us closer to Uganda’s rich biodiversity. Kudos to Dark Hills for arranging a flawless and unforgettable experience for us and our friends.

It was a quick and fun getaway from the busyness of Kampala traffic. Checked off a bucket list item to walk across the equator 😊 My guide, Daniel, was very knowledgeable about Ugandan history and culture, so it was cool to hear some national stories on my way there and back. The drive to the equator itself (plus the time it took to view the water experiments near the equator line and browse through the souvenir shops nearby) didn’t take much time, so Daniel was gracious enough to have me also visit the King’s Palace after we returned to Kampala. Great trip!

My experience with Dark Hills Uganda’s tour to the source of the Nile was truly exceptional. From start to finish, the tour was well-organized and executed with great professionalism. Our knowledgeable guide provided insightful commentary about the history and significance of the Nile River as we explored its source. The boat ride along the river was serene and picturesque, allowing us to soak in the breathtaking views and witness the merging of the Nile’s two major tributaries. The highlight was visiting the actual point where the Nile begins its incredible journey. It was a humbling experience to stand at such a significant geographical location. I highly recommend Dark Hills Uganda for their excellent service and the opportunity to witness the marvel of the source of the Nile.
