Fantastic birding experience
5/5

I just finished a 7 days trips in Uganda with Wide Birding Ecotours. It was a fantastic experience. My two guides Deo and Robert showed me hundreds of species in a short time including Shoebill, most of the Albertine endemics and many other rare birds. Both of them are real experts who know where the birds are, know all the calls and always made sure I had time to see the birds well and take a picture. The accommodations were of good quality and the 4*4 comfortable.
So if you want a successful birding trip in Uganda do not hesitate and contact them !

Eastern Uganda Birding Tour
5/5

This tour exceeded our expectations as far as the quality of the birdwatching and expertise of our guide/driver Davis. We checked many endemics off our list with the patient and expert tracking of Davis. we feel we had excellent value for money. we chose basic accommodation which puts you squarely in the parks and reserves. We aren’t overly fussy people so we’re fine with cold showers and no air conditioning but thrilled with en suite bathrooms with a “stool” toilet. My only recommendation would be to pack a rechargeable fan for extra comfort. we had been to Uganda 2 years ago for the “traditional” safari so our focus this time was more on birds, a passion of my husband’s. Davis is a very funny and easy-going guy. We shared our meals with him but also had plenty of down time over the hot noon to 4pm time. We are already considering another trip with him to Kenya to try and see the cheetah and more endemics.

Excellent birder and amazing guide
5/5

My 14 yr old son and I had an unforgettable trip with Davis and Wide Birding Eco Tours. We went for about 15 days. I could write a ton of great things but I will focus on more brief bullet points that I think apply to birders like me trying to decide on the right guide.

* Davis did a great job looking out for us, making us comfortable, making sure we got what we wanted out of the experience. English is taught in Ugandan schools so he obviously spoke great English, and we really didn't have any issues communicating throughout the trip with other Uganda d and Rwandans anywhere we went. I wasn't expecting that.

* He is very knowledgeable of locations throughout Rwanda and Uganda. Plus, you could tell he had strong local relationships every where we went which I could tell helped improve the experience. He also brought in very knowledgeable local guides at key times which made the experience even better.

* Davis himself is an excellent, expert birder, both by sight and sound. He has been birding since his youth. Plus he's not only good at it but clearly loved it, and surrounded us with other guides who loved birding as well.

* He chose very comfortable lodges with good food.

* Birding was our priority but we wanted to keep on the lookout for other animals and he did a great job incorporating that. We saw the Big 5 and plenty more. He knew his mammals really well too.

It was an amazing trip and we are very grateful for Davis and Wide Birding Eco Tours!

A fruitful birding trip in Uganda with a highly experienced birding guide
5/5

I had the pleasure of going birding with Davis on 22 April and on 26 April 2024. We went to a number of sites in and around Entebbe,, including in Mabamba swamp and at the Entebbe botanical gardens. We had a lot of opportunities to see birds enroute to Mabamba swamp and around Entebbe. It was evident that Davis is very passionate about birds. He is very knowledgeable and was quick to correctly identify the calls and sighting of birds. He is quite experienced and has one of the sharpest eyes I have come across for spotting birds in any environment. He has extensive knowledge of bird calls and can indeed whistle out many calls himself! We managed to get a number of new species for me in the different spots we went to. He was punctual, friendly, flexible, patient and went to great lengths to ensure that we saw the specials in the areas we visited. Davis is also a dependable driver. I will definitely reach out to Davis in the future for a more extensive birding experience across this beautiful country.

another excellent second tour
5/5

In September 2024 we traveled to Uganda for the third time. After having an excellent guide in 2023 with Davis Kibuga, he was our first choice again this year. We were again given a friendly welcome at the airport in Entebbe. Since we arrived late, we were taken to a lodge near the airport. His vehicle was again in excellent condition, it now had a cooler for drinks and a stable charging system. Davis had suggested a great idea of doing chimpanzee habituation. us excellent sighting luck. This time we got very close to the chimpanzees in Kibale NP. We were also very lucky with the "golden monkeys". We also discovered tree-climbing lions on a tree in the Ishasha sector. The chameleons near Bwindi NP were a completely new animal. All of our sighting dreams have come true. Davis is very flexible, he tries to fulfill all wishes. The accommodations were again of a very high comfortable and their food was delicious. We had a very eventful 12 days with him in Uganda. We felt very safe at all times. He is also and professional driver. We can highly recommend Davis Kibuga for your trip to Uganda or Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania. His English and knowledge of nature and wildlife is excellent.
