Core Services
1. Safari Tours
Embark on expertly guided wildlife safaris across Uganda’s top national parks—serengeti-like plains of Queen Elizabeth National Park, the majestic Murchison Falls, the unrivaled primate sanctuaries of Kibale and Bwindi, and off‑the‑beat‑path reserves. Safari packages include game drives, boat cruises, chimp-tracking, and tree‑climbing lion sightings.
2. City Tours
Explore Kampala and its surroundings with knowledgeable guides. Visit landmarks like the Uganda Museum, vibrant craft markets, the revered Kasubi Tombs (UNESCO site), cultural enclaves, and lively nightlife hubs. Full- and half-day itineraries ensure you soak up both heritage and urban energy.
3. Accommodation Booking
Golden Tusk handles planning from end to end—lodges, boutique guesthouses, lakeside resorts at Entebbe, jungle camps near gorilla habitats, and luxury tented safaris in national parks. They negotiate best rates and match lodging to your trip style—budget, mid-range, or upscale.
4. Gorilla Itineraries
Design your dream gorilla‑tracking journey in Bwindi or Mgahinga, including trekking permits, expert guides, accommodation, and optional community visits. Multi-day packages also combine gorilla treks with birding, waterfall trails, and community-led cultural encounters.
