Experience the Real Africa – Personalized & Unforgettable

Have you ever dreamed of coming face to face with the majestic “Big 5” (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo and rhino), hearing the gentle roar of lions in the Serengeti, encountering the gentle giants in the mist of Uganda, or relaxing on the powder-white beaches of Zanzibar?

At Big 5 Africa Tours, we turn travel dreams into lifelong memories.

We are your experts for tailor-made trips to East Africa. Whether it’s Uganda’s untouched rainforest, the vast plains of the Serengeti, or the dreamlike beaches of Zanzibar—we don’t plan off-the-shelf trips, but rather an experience that fits you perfectly.

What makes us special:

Genuine on-the-ground expertise: In Uganda, we operate directly on-site with our own licensed tour company (Big Five Car Rental Ltd.) and fleet of vehicles—ensuring maximum safety, flexibility, and authentic encounters.

​Personalized & Flexible:

From gorilla and chimpanzee tracking to Nile perch fishing at Murchison Falls, mountaineering on Kilimanjaro, or a relaxing beach vacation—you set the pace and choose the destinations.

Authentic Encounters:

Thanks to our close local connections, you’ll experience Africa not just as a tourist, but immerse yourself deeply in the culture and daily life of the people (e.g., on our popular homestay tours).

Personalized Service:

 We—Uli and the team—are here for you from your initial inquiry through to your return home.
