Confused as the guide says 18+ but elsewhere appears to be letting us book with a 12 year old child. Can we clarify if this is open to our 12 year old travelling with us?

This tour does have a minimum age restriction of 18 years. Would you like us to look for an alternative tour?

Would it be possible to have a good offer arriving to Uganda on the 16th or 17th January?

We are unable to include new departures into our schedule. If the departures that are available do not work for you, you will need to select a different tour that departs in January.

I am travelling solo and I prefer to stay in a single room. What would be the single supplement? also could you please share the name and websites of all selected accommodation for this trip.

Single rooms not available on these overland safaris, all twin share. So you will be matched up with someone of the same gender. The accommodation is Simba Safari Camp - Queen Elizabeth National Park, Bunyonyi Overland Resort- Lake Bunyonyi

what does accomodated mean?

Accommodated means that you are staying in a mix of basic lodges and permanent tents, as apposed to our full camping trips. These run along side those ones but without the need to set up your own tent. The lodges have en suite bathrooms as well.

This was a MEMORABLE trip! All 3 staff, Heston, Westinghouse and Alois, were 5 star in every way. I'm my opinion, a better more upscale hotel would be a good start to thus trip. I found the Kenya Comfort Hotel to be seriously lacking. For the amazing day at Maasi Mara, please include the price of the jeep in the tour. There is no way we could have seen what we saw if we had been in the big bus. Please also upgrade the bus to include an electronic ice chest. We all purchased beverages that needed to be chilled, and ice was almost impossible to find. Finally, the tents are old, heavy and difficult to assemble. Please consider a tent upgrade for the future.Show more

This is an excellent tour that gives you an opportunity to have some unforgettable experiences. Our trip leader, driver, and cook were all very personable and skilled at what they do. Local transport drivers, guides, and trackers for day activities were well chosen and helpful as we navigated the Maasai Mara, Kigali Rwanda, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, and Nakuru National Park. The thing is, all of the good came from the tour operator, Africa Travel Co. The problems came from On The Go, and their poor communication in pre-trip planning. Gorilla Trekking is an "optional excursion" on this trip. But one that needs to be planned months in advance. I understand it being a separate permit fee, but had I gone on this trip only to learn it was too late to track these magnificent beasts I would've been disappointed beyond words. No other traveler who had booked this operator through a separate company had such misinformation. It is immediately made clear that ATC has a well-oiled operation that requires a bit of flexibility as local events may change what's available (a flood in Hell's Gate changed those activities). On The Go seemed to be operating on old information with no haste to communicate which excursions required timely planning, and which were best approached with a hakuna matata attitude.Show more

  Traveler•Written November 2025
  We're restricted by flight fees (costs us $2000 each to fly from YEG in Canada) so if you're able to get any deals we don't have access to we'd be looking for a comparable trip (flexible in days) in March for 2 adults and one 12 year old.
- On The Go ToursOperator•Written November 2025
  After a careful search of our offerings in Uganda on Tour Radar we only have 2 options which have a minimum age of 18 years old. If you are open to seeing other areas of Africa we could do another search for you to see what offerings we have that meet your requirements.

  Traveler•Written November 2025
  We'll have to pass for this year as the plane flights from YEG to Africa are out of this world expensive and we'd blow most of our budget just getting over. We can't wait to come in a couple years.
