We LOVED our first Ugandan experience. David's knowledge of wildlife, culture, history and terrain is extraordinary. He is courteous, helpful, humorous at the right time, and sensitive to what interests and affects you! He helped us to engage with and appreciate as much as possible what life is like for 'a local' - almost made us want to be one! We saw and learned so much on the 3 day Murchison safari!
David detected the presence of a lion, a leopard and the rare shoebill long before any normal human being's instinct could! He also gives back to the community through hard work and generosity of his own charity organisation. Be sure to ask him about it!

"Extraordinary. Awesome. Phenomenal"

Did not go on this tour Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2020

If you, or someone you know, ever has the desire to do an African Safari I would highly recommend David Baluku and Kifaru African Expeditions. He is a phenomenal guide, driver and host. David came as a recommendation from a good friend of mine. My brother, his kids, and I couldn't have been happier. Twelve days, every day was as exciting as the last. Lions, giraffes, zebras, elephants, mountain gorillas, chimpanzees, monkeys, hippos. If it was to be seen we saw it.

David's commitment to the quality of safari tourism and the protection and sustainability of the wildlife across Africa is evident in his work. In fact he is in the final stages of opening an in-residence school to train and educate those interested in the field of safari tourism, everything from lodge operations (chefs, front desk, etc) to expedition operations (drivers, guides, etc). Feel free to ask me any questions.

Even if this safari took place in 2012, it's still vivid in my mind. So many emotions, a lovely time that was orchestrated by David, our faithful guide for 12 intense and rich days. Thank you again--the gorilla encounter remains one of the most beautiful moments of my life. Best wishes to David and his team.
