A truly amazing experience. Wouldn't change a thing!
In preparation for the trip, Bush Wander (and Amos specifically) were very reactive and willing to explain every little detail, with clarity and transparency being a top priority. They were also very susceptive to changes in the itinerary and accommodations, fine-tuning them according to budget and plan preferences. We felt appreciated and wholly accounted for, and in hindsight the accommodation selection was diversely ideal.
Our operator, Amos, was perfect! professional, knowledgeable, funny, sensitive and very pleasant. Any question we'd come up with was answered in depth. Amos would stop the car whenever he'd spotted something that could be interesting for us to see (which occurred impressively frequently). He made jokes when and kept conversations going on the long car rides, and also knew to dial it down when we were tired and needed some rest. He made us feel comfortable in the vehicle and with using its facilities.
It was spacious and very well equipped, with A/C, refrigerator, power outlets, field guides for African mammals and birds (which came handy a handful of times) and also coffee/tea facilities for a nice hot beverage break in nature.
Overall the trip was awesome. With everything running smoothly, a well-drafted, rich itinerary, and Uganda being its beautiful self - there's nothing we'd change
Thank you Amos for the great experience. We'd love to come back again
Reliable, kind, thoughtful and exceptional value.
I had one of the most extraordinary wildlife experiences of my life with Amos and Bush Wander. Meeting shoebills up close and personal is something I will never forget. It felt surreal and incredibly special and I still find myself talking about it all the time.
We also visited the CTC Conservation Center, which added such depth and meaning to the experience. It wasn’t just about seeing wildlife, but truly understanding conservation and the environment in a much more personal and thoughtful way.
What made the experience truly exceptional was Amos himself. He is kind, patient, deeply knowledgeable and incredibly intuitive. He has this rare ability to read both people and animals. At times it genuinely felt like he was an animal whisperer. On top of that, he’s a talented cinematographer, capturing moments beautifully without ever making anything feel staged or intrusive.
From start to finish, communication was clear, responsive and reassuring. Everything ran seamlessly and exactly as planned, which made the entire experience feel effortless. Amos is reliable, professional and clearly takes great pride in delivering something special for each guest.
The experience was also excellent value for money. The level of care, expertise and access you receive far exceeds what you might expect. It felt completely tailored and thoughtful and I was able to fully relax and immerse myself in every moment.
If you are considering a safari or wildlife experience in Uganda, I cannot recommend Amos highly enough. This was not just a tour, it was something truly unforgettable.
Best trip experience of my life!
Traveling with Bush Wander was truly the most incredible experience I could have ever been a part of. From the moment I stepped foot in Uganda, I knew that the country would become like a second home to me. The Bush Wander team made sure of that.
I stayed for ten days and was able to see the most amazing wildlife: mountain gorillas, chimpanzees, elephants, giraffes, zebras, shoebill storks, and so much more. But what was even better about the trip was that I got to experience these sightings ethically. Bush Wander makes sure that your experience is as ethical as possible, focusing on both the wellbeing of the wildlife you're observing and on the benefit your experience can have on the local community.
If you're thinking of going to Uganda, Bush Wander is truly the best option. They will make sure you have the trip of a lifetime, one that will stay in your heart long after you leave the Pearl of Africa.
Excellent experience from experienced safari traveller
Our birding safari was designed perfectly for our needs and experience. Our guide, Davis, was wonderful and is a pro birder; took care of all details and guided us expertly through the whole trip. Everything was done very well, all arrangements were made for us, we were well taken care of. Absolutely wonderful!
Excellent safari company and guide
Our safari was organized and planned by Amos for photography lof birds in Bwindi Impediabel Forest and Lake Buyanyi . We had a good time, and thought Davis was a fantastic guidef at finding, identifying the birds in great detail. The places we stayed at were beautiful. We were very pleased.
I highly recommend palnning your safari with Amos and Bush Wander Co.
