Choosing Your Family Safari Style: Luxury or Midrange Adventure
When planning your family safari in Uganda, you’ll need to choose between Luxury and Midrange options based on your budget and comfort preferences. Both styles promise an unforgettable adventure, complete with private vehicles and expert drivers. Still, they differ in terms of exclusivity, amenities, and comfort at the lodges.
We prioritize selecting family-friendly accommodations that cater to all ages, offering a variety of menus and food options. In popular savannah parks like Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls, many lodges feature swimming pools, which are perfect for kids and teens to relax and recharge between game drives. In contrast, lodges near gorilla trekking parks, such as Bwindi and Mgahinga, focus on immersing you in the forest experience and typically do not offer pools.
Our Luxury safaris provide the highest standards of service, private vehicles, and exquisite lodging with gourmet dining. On the other hand, our Midrange safaris offer excellent comfort, private en-suite rooms, and attentive service, plus a more affordable price point.
We encourage families to take an active role in planning their safari. Start with one of our carefully crafted itineraries, and then refine your trip to include exciting destinations like Jinja—the African Adventure Capital—along with rich cultural experiences, such as village stays. This approach ensures a personalized, smooth, and memorable safari experience tailored perfectly to your family. Read more here.
