Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I live in Dubai and I've been organizing safari trips for groups. I would like to say thank you to Alosious for helping us put together such a perfect itineraries each time. From the first time we contacted Scenic Trail Ventures, our emails were answered so quickly within 24 hours considering the time difference. All of our questions were answered completely and clearly. I had emailed many tour companies and it can be frustrating when you don't get complete and clear answers and they are slow to reply, delaying process of booking. I'd rather book with someone who is quick to respond and who provides all answers, which is why we choose to book with Scenic Trail Ventures. I will definitely be recommending you and hope to work with you on many more trips.

I live in Kenya me and my friends traveled to Uganda in the month of February. We were debating between a number of safari companies. We decided on Scenic Trail Ventures because of the price, but also because Alosious was so wonderful and very prompt about returning emails and revising our itinerary. We updated our itinerary and accommodations a number of times and each time Alosious responded quickly and was happy to help us arrange a trip that was tailored to exactly what we wanted. We decided to start in Rwanda for the gorillas and then traveled to Uganda for more gorilla tracking,chimpanzees,golden monkeys and game drives in Queen Elizabeth park and not forgetting the zoo.
I would recommend Scenic Trail Ventures to my friends anytime!

I decided quite last minute to take a trip to track gorillas over in January and I picked Scenic Trail Ventures among the several quotations I received as they offered the best deal and had good TA reviews. I am glad I chose them. They were very responsive and managed to accommodate my needs. I particularly liked the lodges of the tour, both very nice and in spectacular locations. I particularly loved the lodge at Bwindi, Gorilla mist, I will review separately. The guide/driver James was a very nice and kind man, very patient and accomodating. Most importantly he was an expert and safe driver. Our vehicle was customized van, roomy and comfortable with a roof you can stick your head out of to see the animals. I would definitely use Scenic Trail Ventures again if I were to travel to Uganda.

We just finished 10 days trip and I'm happy to say that Alosious and Scenic Trail Ventures are just it! We went on a tour to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Queen Elizabeth Park and Murchison Falls and loved it. Everything in the organization was perfect right from the first welcome meeting. Ali, our guide was the best guide I have ever had. Passionate, knowledgeable, resourceful and very friendly. He told us a lot about Ugandan culture, nature and people.
Our car was a customized safari van. Very comfortable and roomy with a retractable hood which was perfect for game viewing and picture taking. The hotels were all superb and the food was delicious. The actual activities are so worth it, from the gorilla tracking to the rinho tracking on foot.
The other great thing about Scenic Trail Ventures is that the prices are very competitive. Alosious quoted us nearly half of the price of other companies for exactly the same trip and we had an experience worth our money.
We can't wait for our next adventure with Scenic Trail Ventures. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to have a truly special safari experience.

If you are on a tight budget and you can only splurge on one outing while you are in Uganda, I'd definitely recommend Scenic Trail Ventures. They organized the most beautiful and memorable 3 days safari weekend!Â
Our driver Ali was fantastic! He was so extremely accommodating to our wants and needs. He did his absolute best to give us the best weekend safari! He was punctual at all times, always in a good mood and cheerful. He didn't complain about all the extra hours of driving he had to do because of the broken ferry. He helped to make the weekend so memorable!
Would absolutely recommend any couple, family or friend to Scenic Trail Ventures.

First of all i would like to appreciate the services of the tour company. We went to so many place that i had always longed to go to. The beautiful scenery of Murchison Falls that makes you appreciate the work of the Almighty God. The national park guides were very good at there services. Those beautiful wild animals and the different wild fruits that i had never tasted. The road trip to these national parks was really grate. I really enjoyed my tour in the pearl of Africa that i do highly recommend to all those that would love to go to Africa.

We went for many wonderful places to look around. Really good service, fantastic guides and the Murchison Falls National Park was amazing. We did two tours with great guiding and wildlife everywhere. Sipi Falls was so much fun with both going down the fall and hiking to different falls. Visit an old traditional farmer and learn about organic coffee was very interesting. A lifetime memory trip that I highly could recomend.
