What we arrange before you land
A safari here is a sequence of bookings that have to line up: a permit on a fixed date, a lodge near the trailhead, a guide who knows the road, a vehicle that can take it. We do that work in Kampala.
You get one itinerary, one price and one person to reach while you travel.
Gorilla permits
Permits are tied to one date and one gorilla family. We secure yours against availability and send the UWA paperwork when it is issued.
Guides
Our guides are UWA-certified and work these parks year-round. They know the trail conditions and the drive times.
Route
We build the route around drive times and trek dates. Fewer stops, more time in each park.
Price
Your quote separates what is included from what is not: lodges, park fees, permits, transport and guide.

Ateker Safaris is based in Kampala. We plan and run the trips ourselves rather than reselling another operator's itinerary.
Your guide is with you from the airport to the last park. The same team answers the phone while you are here.
