About Muga Great Lakes Safaris: Your Local Guide to East Africa’s Heart

Welcome to Muga Great Lakes Safaris, your trusted partner for unlocking the raw beauty and unforgettable adventures of East Africa. Based in the lush hills of Kigongi, Kabale, at the very heart of the Great Lakes region, we are more than just a tour operator—we are your local hosts, guides, and storytellers.

Our name is our promise. We specialize in crafting journeys that seamlessly flow across the borders of Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania. We believe the best adventures happen when you feel less like a tourist and more like a welcomed guest. That’s why we focus on providing exceptional, personalized safari experiences that connect you with the true spirit of Africa.

Our Philosophy: Local Experts, Personal Touch. Seamless Across Borders.

This isn’t just a tagline; it’s the foundation of everything we do.

  • Local Experts: Being deeply rooted in Uganda means our knowledge goes beyond the guidebooks. We know the hidden gems, the best times to visit a particular trail, and the local communities that add a rich layer of authenticity to your trip.

  • Personal Touch: Your adventure begins with a conversation. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all itineraries. Tell us your ideas, interests, and dreams. We listen carefully to understand the perfect adventure for you, tailoring every detail to your pace and passions.

  • Seamless Across Borders: Whether you dream of trekking to see the majestic mountain gorillas in the misty forests of Uganda or Rwanda, or embarking on a classic savannah game drive in Kenya and Tanzania, we handle all the logistics. We make moving between countries and parks effortless, so you can focus entirely on the magic of the journey.

Our Vision & Mission

  • Our Vision is to be the most trusted guide to the heart of East Africa, where every journey we craft becomes a lifelong memory and inspires a deep love for our natural world.

  • Our Mission is to provide exceptional, personalized safari experiences across Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania, ensuring every traveler encounters the wild with wonder and respect.

From the heart-stopping thrill of encountering the world’s only remaining mountain gorillas to the serene beauty of Lake Bunyonyi and the endless savannahs teeming with the Big Five, we are here to guide you.

Let us help you write your own African story.
