Our Valuable Clients Say this...

Our trip with Emmanuel (Gari Trips) was amazing! We went from Kampala to Lake Mburo, Queen Elizabeth National Park and back to Entebbe. Gari Trips provided excellent driving in Ugandan traffic (we felt very safe) in a very comfortable and clean car with a very kind and calm guide. Emma really enjoys his profession, which made the experience unforgettable. He made sure we would get the full experience of Uganda. He is an amazing tour guide, animal spotter, photographer and driver. Besides that, he is also an amazing person who cares for the people around him. We would recommend Gari Trips to anyone travelling Uganda!

We had a wonderful time in Uganda, Eddy, our driver and guide, took us safely to several National Parks and the source of the beautiful river Nile.
With his enthusiasm and experience he gave us a very pleasant and educational trip.
We have seen the Mountain Gorillas, the Chimpanzees, Lions, Elephants, Buffaloes, Giraffes, Zebras, Hippos, Crocodiles many different species of Antelopes and birds, even the national bird, Warthogs and last but not least the Leopard. The Pearl of Africa will be a lasting memory in our hearts. P&A

I’ve traveled extensively across the world, but I’ve never had a guide/driver as exceptional as Emma. From the moment our journey began, he made us feel completely at ease with his warm personality, deep local knowledge about the culture, flora and fauna, and incredible professionalism.
Emma went above and beyond to ensure every part of our trip was smooth, memorable, and filled with unforgettable experiences. He truly sets the standard for what a top-tier guide should be. Highly recommended!

Rene Stampfl

We had an absolutely brilliant 11 day tour with Emma from Gari Trips. We enjoyed game drives in a Mburo and Murchison Falls National Parks, a trip to see the gorillas at Bwindi, a relaxing day at Lake Mutanda and much more. Emma was fantastic, not only driving us safely around the country (1,500km covered) but full of local knowledge - everything from the best rangers to take on our drives to the history of the country to the details of all the animals and birds (many, many birds!), to the best places to find clean facilities during the long drives (vital!). It was great to have such a knowledgeable and friendly guide for our trip - I'd very much recommend using his services.

I had a fantastic weekend with Eddy from Gari trips, my first experience of Uganda (and safari) which completely exceeded my expectations. We visited Ziwa rhino sanctuary and Murchison Falls, where we managed to fit in two game drives, a walk to the top of the falls and a boat trip. Saw so many beautiful animals and birds in such a short space of time. Eddy was great company - positive, organised, enthusiastic and happy to share his extensive knowledge of wildlife and Uganda, and an expert driver / navigator. I was travelling alone and felt safe and comfortable, even in the Kampala traffic! Communication with Emma who organised the trip was also great - he was super quick to respond and made planning this at pretty short notice very simple. Thank you Gari trips, I hope to be back!

We had a fantastic trip this summer, organized by GariTrips. It was incredibly well-organized. And Uganda is so beautiful and diverse! Highly recommended. Emma from GariTrips is a wonderful guide; very friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. We had lots of laughs together.
If you'd like to explore Uganda with a private guide, choose Emma.

Nancy Tebrugge

Reliable and expert tour operator / driver / guide. Knows about game drives and to spot the animals. We travelled in a comfortable 4wheel drive to Murchison, Pacwach, Gulu for several days. Smooth, flexible and excellent organisation. Recommended!

I have taken three safaris in Uganda with Immanuel and Gari Trips. I would not choose to use anyone else. The pricing is on point and Immanuel truly cares about your experience, going above and beyond every time. He is good people and I suggest you look no further when deciding on a tour operator in Uganda. You will not be disappointed.

Emmanuel is a wonderful driver-guide who made our two-week journey through Uganda truly unforgettable. My boyfriend and I did a round-trip during the end of rain season; Kampala, Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls, the Rwenzori Mountains, Lake Mutanda, Mburo, and back to Kampala.
With 16 years of experience in tourism, Emmanuel knows what he is doing. His knowledge of Uganda’s history and culture added immense value to our trip. He connected us with good guides in the national parks (especially in Murchison Falls) and offered excellent advice for planning our itinerary.
The vehicle was well maintained—cleaned inside and out regularly—and Emmanuel’s driving skills were good, ensuring a safe and comfortable journey throughout. Even when getting stuck in the mud, he kept a cool head (unlike me, hahaha).
If you’re looking for a guide who can deliver a fantastic Ugandan adventure at a very reasonable price, look no further.

Immanuel helped me book my gorilla permit, giving me tips on which sector was better for me as there are 4. He also had someone come to receive me on the morning of my gorilla trek as many people were on a fully organised Africa tour. If you’re an independent traveler, he’s the man of the situation, he’ll help you book your permit and give you guidance on how to get there easily on your own. I personally went to Rushaga sector and I can recommend it 100% as Immanuel said it’s very easy there as we only had to hike 1h to see the Gorillas 🦍. It went smoothly, he was recommended to me by a friend and I will recommend him to other travelers who come to Uganda 🇺🇬 too! I had an amazing day, highly recommend Immanuel.
