"Professional operator, friendly, helpful, experienced, good communication"
Our experience with Alpha Adventure Safaris is very good. The owner is very friendly and helpful. After the first contact, we already had a possible travel plan within a few days, only a few details had to be adjusted to have a perfect plan.
Our driver Joseph was a very good guide and very nice person. Knowledgeable and friendly. We had nice conversations and were able to share many experiences. Even if we wanted something extra or different, he gave us his thoughts about the possibilities.
The booked accommodations met our expectations. Clean, good food, friendly staff.
In short, we had a great trip. We were able to fully enjoy the trip and did not have to worry about anything ourselves. We would therefore heartily recommend Alpha Adventure Safaris.

Family trip to Uganda
We travelled Uganda for 3 weeks by the end of 2017 with two our kids (8 and 10 years old). It was a very pleasant experience meeting Albert who helped us in quite many practical aspects. He was a great help from the very beginning while we still were planning our trip. He commented on our itinerary if it was feasible, recommended places to stay and visit. He provided a very transparent and detailed calculation of costs, which made us to book with Albert. He stick to his calculations, there we no any “surprises” before, during or after our trip. He was always on time and stick to our agreements. I would say he went beyond those: I will never forget a small accident where I lost a small nut from my GoPro camera, only briefly mentioned it in front of him without any expectations and forgot about it. Later that day (and that was very late, evening), Albert appeared with the replacing part and big smile! This illustrates his attitude and willingness to help. Many of our days we spent with the driver John, I have a hard time to describe how professionally this guy acted. He has excellent instincts, he knows exactly when to act / talk, he has a great sense of humor and last but not least knows the Ugandan roads damn well. We really liked his nature! He was driving us many hours every day all over the country - from Mgahinga in the south to Kidepo in the north - acting as driver and guide at the same time, with a very calm and patient attitude. We felt very safe driving with John, which is not a totally given thing on Ugandan roads. All in all I think we came very close to friendship boundaries with both Albert and John, celebrating New Years Eve with John in Kidepo Lounge and hopefully meeting Albert soon on his trip to Europe. Thank you guys for an unforgettable trip!!! Lenka, Jan, Ami, Jonas :)

Amazing discovering of The Pearl of Africa with Alpha Adventure Safaris, a passionate and funny team
From the moment we selected Alpha Adventure Safari we were pleased. We were immediately greeted and welcomed by the team on both email and WhatsApp. Our worries were set aside. We put 110% trust in Albert and his team and were not disappointed. We honestly did not know what to expect however, from the start our loving driver and guide Joseph put us under his wing and made sure that we were comfortable and cared for. I cannot imagine a better experience. The sights were amazing and the accommodations perfect. We were awed and inspired by the beautiful country and people. This was going to be our one and only trip to Uganda. We are now talking to family and friends about a repeat. The smiles and memories that we carry with us are without a doubt due to this experience. We would choose Alpha Adventure Safaris over and over and over.

Uganda Safari- Amazing adventure
I took a 13 day safari with Alpha Adventure Safaris. The driver/ guide, Joseph, provided an excellent safari for a person traveling on a budget. I visited Murchison Falls National Park on the first leg of the trip. It is an outstanding park with open rolling hills which allow good picture taking of the many animals. This park was second only to Kuger National Park for the quantity and diverse animal life. This is a must do when you visit Uganda!!!! Queen Elizabeth National was just okay. It did not come close to Murchison for visible wild life. Kabale NP for chimpanzee trek was very good with easy trails. Beware of standing below chimps, as they enjoy urinating on visitors. The drive to Bwindi is beautiful, but bumping roads. Joseph scheduled my gorilla trek at the side of Nkuringo where we were only two tourists. The trek was rough, but we were allowed to spend several hours with a family of 7 gorillas. The alpha silverback ran down the mountain and gave me a pat on the back, very gently. It happened so fast I did not even have time to get scared or wet my pants. The park guides and spotters were extremely helpful, especially climbing up the mountain on return trip. After the very tiring gorilla trek, Joseph schedule 2 days at beautiful Lake Bunyonyi. The lake and the surrounding hills are spectacular. All accommodations were more than adequate, clean rooms with hot showers.
The trip was trouble free. Alpha Adventure Van was in excellent condition to handle the dirt roads. I highly recommend Alpha Adventures for its outstanding service at a reasonable price.
