Stepping into Uganda is like opening a treasure chest of wildlife magic. From the thundering Murchison Falls and rhino tracking at Ziwa to tree‑climbing lions in Queen Elizabeth and intimate chimp meetings in Kibale, our Uganda Wildlife Safaris offer truly immersive experiences. Every itinerary at Valiant Safaris is meant to link you closely with Uganda’s rich biodiversity while guaranteeing comfort, authenticity, and sustainability.
Why Pick Our Uganda Wildlife Safaris ?
Choosing a safari operator, in our opinion, is more than scheduling a trip; it’s entrusting a guide to guide you into the heart of Africa. Our Uganda Wildlife Safaris rise above the others for following reasons:
local knowledge and strong conservation connections
With over 8 years of experience as a registered Ugandan DMC, we have developed close ties with Uganda Wildlife Authority, monitors, park personnel, and conservation groups. . This internal access guarantees effective permissions, priority tracking, and fewer crowds—especially at locations such Queen Elizabeth and Murchison.
Personalized, custom safaris.
Instead of off-the-shelf itineraries, we design excursions based on your interests—whether that be rhino trekking at Ziwa, chimpanzee hikes in Kibale, boat safaris on the Kazinga Channel, or lion experiences in Ishasha Gorge. . To match your tastes, we change accommodation style, pace, and comfort level.
Value-based competitive pricing
Giving choices ranging from modest to luxury, we guarantee no unexpected costs and uphold cost transparency—from permits and automobiles to food and guides. Premium service is available without premium costs.
Moral and environmentally friendly approach
To honor wildlife and habitats, we rigorously follow safety procedures, choose competent guides, and restrict group sizes. Whether by ranger employment, community-run lodges, or eco-projects, our reservations help local communities—a priority many major tour firms ignore.
Highlights on Our Signature Safari
Among the most captivating encounters on our Uganda Wildlife Safaris itinerary are those listed below:
- Ziwa Rhino Sanctuaries
Trek white rhinos—the only place in Uganda where you can do so on foot. It’s a low-crowd, close meeting guided by conservation agents.
- National Park Murchison Falls
Visit game reserves full of elephants, buffalo, lions, and birds. The Nile surges through the “World’s Most Powerful Falls,” where we also provide launch trips to see hippos and crocodiles right before your eyes.
- Park National Queen Elizabeth
Here a safari gives so much more than just “Big Five. ” Tree-climbing lions in Ishasha, chimp hikes in Kyambura Gorge, open savannah, and the legendary Kazinga Channel cruise—beautifully photographed for its wildlife vistas off‑road
- Kibale forest
Known as the “Primate Capital of Africa,” this forest boasts rich wildlife density—chimpanzees, colobus monkeys, forest elephants, and more than 325 bird species. Our trekking sometimes leads to absolutely amazing near encounters.
- Semuliki and Budongo Forest
Choose deeper nature immersion: Semuliki’s rare lowland rainforest and thermal springs or Budongo with its massive mahoganies and chimp activity.
Our Approach: What Sets Us Apart
Smaller groups, more enriching experiences
We control group sizes on drives and walks. Unlike bigger firms with packed vehicles, this intimacy offers more time with your guide and more quiet wildlife sightings.

From obtaining permits to selecting the perfect campsite, we take care of all the logistics. Our capacity to “exceed expectations” even on muddy roads or tight schedules is emphasized by reviews.
- Flexibility and traveler focus
Need to extend a gorilla permit, change automobiles, or cater for guest preferences? On the fly, we modify to provide your trip smooth and customized.
- Encouragement of conservation and community
Your safari money helps nearby programs directly, including eco-lodges, ranger employment, and village economies. True safari for us is about helping to improve the people and sites in Uganda.
