Guide ok ++ (Dunn) wildlife good for gorilla and chimp... not for the rest, but i only come for gorilla and chimp, so it's good for me. I have seen lion and all the rest in Tanzania, Tanganika and namibia...

Pretty, green scenery, few tourists around (even in high season), all kinds of wildlife (chimpansees and gorillas!), great birding destination, lovely and friendly people.

Uganda was one of our favorite countries of 9 Eastern & Southern Afrcian countries visited. Wildlife was not as prolific as some other destinations, but still plentiful and of course offers the chance to visit the mountain gorillas! The people are very friendly, scenery is stunning, roads are decent, attractions are affordable and the country felt progressive and not corrupt! And the birds, I almost forgot the birds, best in Africa...and that's saying a lot!

We went at the end of the rainy season and while we saw big game we might have seen more if we had gone during the dry season which forces the animals to the larger watering holes making them easier to view. But we loved the country - people are warm and welcoming, very polite. Uganda truly is "the pearl of Africa ",

Fell in love with Uganda

Yes, we had a great time in Uganda. The whole experience from start to finish was really great. The guide, was great. Nothing was too much trouble and we didn’t have any problems along the way. When we wanted to change our rafting trip, get a refund and book extra accommodation, this was sorted out no worries. He gave us the refund without question and organized our other trip for us It was all very easy. I have never booked travel over the internet before and was a bit worried about what we were going to get. However, the trip exceeded our expectations. Your help in the process was very good as well, our questions were always answered promptly.

Safari disappointment

4 / 5 4 /5

Disappointed about the poor road infrastructure and length of road journeys, but the biggest disappointment was to learn that we could not go off track to get a closer sighting of the lions - that privilege was only for those who paid $150 a day to do so. We have been on numerous safaris in other countries and have never encountered this.

Uganda is a fascinating country to visit.

My wife and I greatly enjoyed our week in Uganda. It was a week of public political debate and we saw several soldiers in Kampala but never felt in any danger. After attending the launch of my sister's book about an outstanding Ugandan killed in 1984 we went on the Red Chilli 3-day tour to Murchison Falls National Park. It was a great adventure. Though it involved a 5-6 hour drive each way in our minibus the main highways were mostly in very good condition; our journey only became bumpy when we left the highway and had to take rough roads. The weather was generally fine and, as soon as we entered the park, we began to see baboons and interesting birds. At Red Chilli Hideaway camp site we stayed in mosquito proof tents. The first night we slept through the chomping sound of hippos eating grass outside, but some of our companions filled us in on this next morning!! The meals we ate in the camp dining quarters were particularly good. We greatly enjoyed our walk around the Falls
Read more which are quite dramatic. In our drives in the park we came quite close to giraffes, elephants, two lionesses, buffalos and saw also many antelopes, warthogs, and a spotted hyena. On our boat trip on the Nile we saw many interesting birds, also hippos and a sleeping crockodile! Our guides were excellent and our driver was very careful. We took many photos. From these, the African artwork souvenirs we bought, and from the warmth of African friendship we have many precious memories of the country. All our journeys started on time, but be prepared for a long wait for meals ordered in hotels and restaurants!
