Efficient and professional
First time in Africa and the experience was splendid. Abdul being the tour guide as well as the sole driver the entire time did a great job for a newcomer like me. In those 3 days that I was here, he provided me with Rwanda and Uganda’s history backdrop and local tips throughout. He made sure that everything is taken care of, from trekking to food to accommodation, so everything sailed smoothly. Any concerns or questions, he was able to address and resolve quickly. Overall wonderful experience and looking forward to my next time in Africa!

Customized & great service!
My wife & I booked with Abunda for the first part of our honeymoon trip. Abdul was quick to respond, had good prices and even let us customize the trip from one of his suggestions.
Lodge Bweza in Uganda was one of our favorites of the whole continent! Food was good, very clean and service was excellent.
Special mention to our guide Edgar as he made all our stops on time, Land Cruiser Prado was clean, and he shared interesting stories & knowledge.
Would highly recommend Abunda for your trip to/from Rwanda AND Uganda!

Unforgettable Experience with Abunda Experiences Uganda!!!
I recently had the pleasure of exploring Uganda with Abdul, and I can honestly say it was a memorable trip! From the moment we began our journey, he made me feel welcome and safe, sharing his knowledge about the region, history, and wildlife.
One of the highlights of the tour was the gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Abdul ensured that I was well-prepared and rested. He took the time to share fascinating facts and stories, which made the experience of driving from Kigali to Kampala even richer.
The itinerary was well-planned, balancing history, adventure and relaxation, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of Uganda. He was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, ensuring that my interests and needs were always prioritized.
What truly sets Abdul apart is his love for Uganda and commitment to responsible tourism. It was inspiring to see how he interacts with the local stakeholders.
I highly recommend Abunda Experiences Uganda to anyone looking to explore the region. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or visiting for the first time, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Abdul, for an amazing experience!

Incredible Uganda safari with abunda discoveries
I had a memorable trip with Abunda Discoveries Uganda visiting Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Queen Elizabeth National Park. The team was responsive and helpful throughout the planning process, making everything smooth from start to finish. The journey itself was beautiful,lush landscapes, vibrant communities, and amazing wildlife. Bwindi’s forest experience was unique, while Queen Elizabeth offered stunning savannah views and diverse animals. Everything was well-paced, and the long drives were made enjoyable with scenic stopovers. Abdul is an excellent guide ,very professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. He made the trip comfortable and engaging, always sharing interesting insights and ensuring i had the best experience throughout. Uganda is truly a beautiful country, and Abunda Discoveries made me experience it in the best way. I’ll be happy to visit again. Highly recommended!

Amazing trip to Uganda with Abunda discoveries Uganda
We had an amazing life time experience with Abunda discoveries! We did a five day trek in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park which worked out very well. The guide was knowledgable and helpful and knew what to do at every single point. We also experienced an amazing full day safari in Queen Elizabeth National Park and was perfect as well. We saw big animals like elephants lions,cheetahs and crocodiles we had alot of fun and got a chance to taste on African delicious food. Everything was extremely well planned from the very beginning.
Best of all, our safari guide Abdul made each of our day filled with stunning views and incredible experiences. Thank you Abdul and your team for the non forgotten experience.
I highly recommend Abunda discoveries for a great reasonably priced African adventure

Abdul was amazing and very knowledgeable!
Our Uganda trekking organized through Abunda Discoveries Uganda was an extraordinary adventure from start to finish — seamlessly blending thrilling nature encounters with genuine relaxation and luxury. Their team and our guide, Abdul crafted a bespoke itinerary that perfectly matched our goals: gorilla trekking, immersive wildlife experiences, and restorative moments in beautiful Ugandan lodges.
Exceptional Planning & Personal Service:
From the initial consultation to arrival in Rwanda, their attention to detail was remarkable. Communication was responsive and clear, transfers were smooth, and every permit — including the coveted gorilla trekking permit — was handled efficiently. Their expertise meant we never had to worry about logistics, allowing us to focus on the experience itself.
Abdul picked us up from our hotel in Rwanda in the morning and our adventure began first with visiting the Kigali Genocide Memorial and then we drove over the border to Uganda. He stopped along the way for us to take in the land and people along our journey to our first lodge.
Gorilla Trekking & Gorilla Leisure Lodge (Bwindi):
One of the standout highlights was staying at Gorilla Leisure Lodge, nestled in the Rushaga sector of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park — one of the best places on Earth for mountain gorilla encounters. The lodge’s location just minutes from the trekking start point made early morning treks convenient, and the rainforest views from our room were breathtaking.
The lodge itself strikes a perfect balance between rustic charm and thoughtful luxury. Spacious cottages faced lush forest valleys, the hospitality was warm and attentive, and we especially appreciated the peaceful evenings on the terrace after a day spent tracking gorillas through towering jungle.
Tabebuia Spa & Safari Resort (Fort Portal):
After days of adventure, stopping at Tabebuia Spa & Safari Resort brought a completely different but equally memorable experience. Set on the shores of Lake Nyabikere, this refined eco-retreat offered luxurious spa treatments and stunning lakeside views that helped us unwind and reset.
The spa at Tabebuia is especially memorable — the property was beautiful against a backdrop of calm water and forest — offering a restorative contrast to the energetic pace of travel and chimpanzee trekking. The service was polished and thoughtful, making for a truly rejuvenating stay and the staff went above and beyond for us.
Overall Impression:
Abunda delivered an unforgettable Uganda itinerary, expertly balancing thrilling wildlife encounters and luxury lodge experiences. The combination of gorilla trekking from Gorilla Leisure Lodge and the serene spa retreat at Tabebuia created a trip that was both adventurous and deeply restorative.
Highly recommended for anyone dreaming of exploring Uganda’s “Gentle Giants” while also indulging in thoughtful, well-curated hospitality.
