Start your Uwera safari

How we plan

Every Uwera safari is private and tailor-made. Whether you dream of a quiet hour with a gorilla family, the Mara in migration season or the Okavango in flood, one specialist shapes it with you from the first message to the last day.

Browse sample safaris

Every safari we plan is different, so our sample itineraries are starting points rather than packages. Browse by country, travel style or the moment you most want to see, then send us an enquiry or simply tell us what caught your eye.

Talk to a specialist

The best safaris begin with a conversation. A specialist who knows the countries you are considering will get to know you first: who is travelling, when you can go, how you like to travel and what would make the trip special for you.

We shape it around you

Your specialist drafts a private route with lodges, permits, guides and timings chosen for you. We balance wildlife, rest, culture and time on the road, and we will tell you honestly if a plan is too rushed or a place does not suit your interests.

Refining the details

We adjust the route until it feels right: the number of nights in each place, a different lodge, an extra day in the forest or a slower pace for children or grandparents. Nothing is fixed until you are happy with it.

Confirm and secure

When you are ready, a deposit secures your permits and rooms. Gorilla and chimpanzee permits are limited, so we book them as early as we can and confirm every arrangement to you in writing.

The finishing touches

Before you leave we send clear travel documents, entry advice and a packing list for your season. Your guide meets you on arrival, and we stay a message away from the first day to the last.

The Uwera standard

Every safari should feel considered

A safari can be expensive, but price alone does not decide quality. Quality is found in the details: the guide who knows when to stay quiet, the lodge that remembers how you take your coffee, and an itinerary with enough time to enjoy a place instead of passing through it.

Before you arrive

We listen, understand the purpose of the trip and build the itinerary around your real priorities.

While we plan

Travel time, lodges, activities, seasons, permits and transfers, all weighed for the pace of the journey.

On the ground

We stay available, communicate clearly and respond quickly when plans change.

After you return

We listen to your feedback and use it to make the next safari better.

Honest advice

The goal is to design the right safari for you

We are based in Africa and we know the distances, the seasons and the practical realities. Our guests should feel looked after without feeling managed.

If a route is too rushed, we will tell you.

If an experience does not suit your interests, we will say so.

If another place or lodge makes more sense, we will explain why.
