Our story
The history behind Ellington Safaris goes far back and tells the story of two families, one Ugandan and one British, (George William and John Ellington) that first bonded during WWII...which has now inspired their grand-children to establish a company to support a fund for the education of subsequent generations. It's a small but growing operation that is really rooted in the friendship and love three different families found in the natural splendor of Uganda & beyond, and we retain that unique and personal flavour.
The Ellington Team
Our young, dynamic, creative and dedicated team is committed to design, plan and organize amazing and unique safaris in Uganda and Rwanda as well as Kenya and Tanzania. We are ready to work hand in hand with you to create the perfect journey suiting your expectations, needs and budget.

Our Safari Guides
Ever since founding the company, Ellington Safaris has placed a strong focus on the quality of service and knowledge provided by their safari guides. Our tour guides are all well trained with a wide knowledge about wildlife, nature, culture and history and persuade with many years of experience. Starting as side guides at different national parks and other tourism side, before joining Ellington Safaris, they developed a huge passion for their country and what is has to offer. Some had the chance to specialize in different fields such as birds, primates or mountaineering, so we can assign them according to our client's interests and passions.
After joining Ellington Safaris, every guide was trained for at least a year by our head guide, in order to meet the company's high level of service standard. We make sure that each and every client is in the best hands while travelling with us. Our guides will do their best to make our clients happy and fulfill all their wishes to make their safari truly exceptional.
