Acleva Tours was founded on a simple, powerful belief: that a safari should be more than a sightseeing trip, it should be a transformative journey that connects you deeply to the land, its wildlife, and its people.

Our roots are planted firmly in the rich soil of Uganda, at the very heart of East Africa. What began as a shared passion for our region’s unparalleled beauty and majestic wildlife has grown into a dedicated mission: to craft exceptional, responsible, and deeply personal safari experiences. We are not outsiders looking in; we are your local hosts, your expert guides, and your passionate advocates for this extraordinary corner of the world. We partner with various travel listing platforms including the largest safari listing platform SafariBookings.

Our Mission & Ethos

To deliver unparalleled safari experiences that ignite wonder, foster respect for nature, and create lifelong memories all while positively impacting the communities and ecosystems we explore.

We operate on three core principles:

1. Authenticity: We offer genuine encounters, not staged performances. Our itineraries are designed to reveal the true spirit of East Africa.

2. Excellence: From our handpicked guides and premium partners to our seamless logistics, we are committed to exceptional quality in every detail.

3. Responsibility: We are stewards of this precious environment. Our operations actively support conservation initiatives and community empowerment, ensuring tourism is a force for good.
