Who we are

Ishamba Gorilla Tours and Eco-Safaris is an Ugandan based company with partners in Germany.
We are offering private tours to wonderful destinations in Uganda, partly Rwanda. Discover unique places, stay in lodges in the middle of a National Park, or relax in local guesthouses with beautiful gardens. Experience the real life of East-Africa – all while supporting local communities and projects.

Our mission is for people to experience the beautiful countries, stunning nature and friendly people of East-African countries, such like Uganda and Rwanda.

At ISHAMBA, we believe in the power of travel to not only enrich the lives of our guests but also to support the local people. Guided by a philosophy of responsible tourism, we are dedicated to fostering mutually beneficial relationships with local communities and organizations. We view tourism as an opportunity to strengthen local businesses, preserving cultural heritage and traditions while providing exciting adventures for our guests.

For many years now, we have worked together with local communities and organizations and can therefore provide the most unique and authentic insights into the country.
Founded in 2021, our business is built upon two pillars. 1. Exciting and interesting tours and wildlife safaris and 2. Our own ISHAMBA eco lodge, which will be soon be constructed.
