Your Trusted Uganda Safari Company Since 2014

Tulambule Uganda Safaris is a trusted Uganda safari company, planning gorilla treks, wildlife safaris and holidays since 2014. We are Skymate Tours and Travel Limited, trading as Tulambule Uganda Safaris: a 100% Ugandan-owned company based in Kampala, licensed by the Uganda Tourism Board, accredited by the Uganda Wildlife Authority and a member of the Association of Uganda Tour Operators (AUTO).

"Tulambule" means "let us visit" or "let us explore" in Luganda, and that is exactly what we do. We help travellers from around the world, and Ugandans exploring their own country, discover the very best of Uganda and East Africa.

Our Story

We started Tulambule with one clear belief: the best safaris are planned by people who live here. Our guides know Bwindi's trails because they have walked them many times. They know which gorilla families suit older trekkers, which sectors are quieter in peak season, and where to look for the shoebill in Mabamba Swamp.

That local knowledge shapes every trip we plan. It helps our guests save time, avoid common mistakes and enjoy experiences that are hard to arrange from abroad.

Over more than ten years, we have grown from a small Kampala team into a full-service East Africa travel company. Today we run safaris in Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania, overland trips from Uganda's borders, self-drive safari packages and holidays abroad for Ugandan travellers. Our values have not changed: every itinerary is personal, every guide is Ugandan, and every trip supports conservation and the communities who live alongside Uganda's wildlife.

What We Do

We are a full-service travel company with two specialist departments, so you can plan a safari, a holiday abroad or both with one trusted team.

We also run overland safaris that collect you at Uganda's border points, and self-drive safari packages where you drive to the park and we handle everything from the gate onwards.

Our Commitment to Conservation

When you travel with Tulambule, your safari helps protect wildlife and supports the people who share their land with it.
