Advent Travel Center- Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya & Tanzania Safaris

Your Gateway to East Africa’s Majestic Wilderness

At Advent Travel Center, we don’t just organize safaris – we craft transformative journeys that connect you with the soul of East Africa. For over a decade, our passionate team has been guiding adventurers through the breathtaking landscapes and extraordinary wildlife encounters that define Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania.

Our Story

Advent Travel Center was born from a profound love for East Africa’s natural heritage and a desire to share its wonders with the world. What began as a small team of dedicated local guides has blossomed into a premier safari operator with an unwavering commitment to excellence, sustainability, and authentic experiences.

Our founders, having grown up surrounded by the region’s diverse ecosystems, established Advent Travel Center with a simple yet powerful vision: to showcase East Africa’s spectacular wilderness while ensuring its preservation for generations to come. Today, that vision continues to guide every safari we organize, every route we plan, and every partnership we forge.

What Sets Us Apart

Regional Expertise

Unlike operations that focus on a single country, Advent Travel Center’s comprehensive knowledge spans the entirety of East Africa’s safari circuit. From Uganda’s mist-covered gorilla habitats and Rwanda’s volcanic landscapes to Kenya’s expansive savannahs and Tanzania’s iconic Serengeti plains, our expertise crosses borders to offer you seamless multi-country experiences.

Official Recognition

We are proud to maintain strong professional relationships with the region’s most respected wildlife authorities:

  • Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA)
  • Rwanda Development Board (RDB)
  • Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS)
  • Tanzania Wildlife Management Authority (TAWA)

These prestigious affiliations not only reflect our commitment to operating at the highest professional standards but also ensure our clients receive priority consideration for permits, accommodations, and special access opportunities.

Customized Experiences

We understand that every traveler’s dream safari is unique. Whether you’re seeking the adrenaline rush of tracking mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, witnessing the Great Migration across the Mara River, climbing the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro, or simply enjoying a peaceful sundowner overlooking Lake Victoria, we tailor each itinerary to reflect your specific interests, pace, and style.

Conservation Commitment

At Advent Travel Center, we believe that responsible tourism is the key to preserving East Africa’s natural heritage. Our operations adhere to strict ecological guidelines, and we actively contribute a portion of our proceeds to local conservation initiatives. By choosing us, you’re not just experiencing wildlife – you’re helping protect it.
