A fantastic guide who is likeable, great company and superb at the necessary logistics.
My wife and I enjoyed a great 2-week trip with Davis in January 2026. The trip was about 50% serious birding and 50% other wildlife, such as Gorillas, Chimpanzees and various general safaris, day and night.
Davis spent time on Teams meetings with us months before the trip to make sure everything was what we wanted. He took all of our requests into account and was flexible on the ground in Uganda also.
Davis knows everybody in Uganda and is liked by everyone! This has enormous advantages, such as him being able to fix it so we got to see one of the better Gorilla groups with 13 individuals 2 silverbacks and some babies. It was very nice to be welcomed wherever we went, as everyone is happy to see Davis again.
From a birding point of view, Davis arranges local specialists at each site: Raymond at Budongo, Perez at Kibale, Amos at Ruhija and Goodwin at Mgahinga. Their extreme expertise on their home patch made a considerable difference.
Davis is excellent company, has a good sense of humour and is a great Mr Fix-it with the inevitable trouble-shooting required on a trip like this.
On top of all this, everything was done at a very competitive price in pleasant accommodation with good food throughout. 10/10 and highly recommended.
Outstanding birding in Uganda with Davis Kibuga and Wide Birding Eco Tours — highly recommended!
We have recently returned from an incredible 16-day birding trip with Wide Birding Eco Tours Uganda. We can highly recommend our guide, Davis Kibuga. From our very first enquiry and throughout the trip, his professional demeanour put us instantly at ease, and this continued for the entire journey.
His knowledge of Uganda’s birds is truly exceptional. His ability to identify calls and locate species before we even knew they were there was remarkable. What stood out most was Davis’s helpfulness and dedication — requests for earlier-than-usual morning starts, changes in accommodation, and other adjustments were never too much trouble. He was always enthusiastic, professional, and passionate about sharing Uganda’s natural wonders with us.
We also travelled in a comfortable LandCruiser, well suited for birding, and appreciated having a cooler on board, which was a welcome touch on long days in the field.
If you are planning a birding trip to Uganda, we strongly recommend using the services of Wide Birding Eco Tours and Davis Kibuga. What an amazing experience!

Very high quality
I went on an individually designed trip of 6 days, and managed to visit 3 national parks, as well as the urban eco-park in Kigali and some other stops on the way, including Gashora swamp. It was my first time in Rwanda, and so, of the over 240 bird species I saw, almost all were new to me. My guide Alex was extremely knowledgeable both for identifying the birds and for explaining their behaviour. Extremely highly recommended!
Best Uganda Safari Ever – Davis & Wide Birding Eco Tours Delivered a Dream Trip! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just back from an unforgettable 9-day/8-night adventure with Wide Birding Eco Tours, and it was hands-down the highlight of my travels in Uganda! Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As a mix of local and international travelers, we wanted a balanced wildlife/birding safari with gorilla and chimp trekking—and this itinerary nailed it perfectly, at a fair and transparent price.
Our guide, Davis, was the star of the show. His expertise shone through every day: incredible bird knowledge (we spotted so many colorful species and rarities across diverse habitats), uncanny timing for animal appearances, and genuine passion that made every drive exciting. He was punctual, honest, super flexible (adapting seamlessly to our requested changes), and always put our interests first. Davis's deep craft knowledge ensured maximum sightings without rushing. 🦍🦅🦁🦓🐗🐊🐃🐘🦏🐒🦒
The itinerary was packed but well-paced: powerful Murchison Falls (top-of-falls views + Nile boat cruise), thrilling chimp tracking in Kibale, game drives and Kazinga Channel boat in Queen Elizabeth (hippos galore!), the magical gorilla trek in Bwindi (up-close hour with a family—life-changing!), relaxing Lake Bunyonyi. Birding was phenomenal throughout, with aquatic birds, raptors, and forest specials.
Logistics were spot-on: comfortable customized Land Cruiser with pop-up roof and fridge, basic but clean/scenic lodges, tasty included meals, and all permits/activities covered. Wide Birding felt ethical and reliable—great value compared to bigger operators.
If you're eyeing Uganda for wildlife, birds, or primates, book with Wide Birding Eco Tours and request Davis. He made our trip the best—flexible, knowledgeable, and fun. Highly recommend! Thank you, Davis and team!

A professional and dedicated birding guide
This is our first tour to Africa and very lucky to find Davis to be our guide. Once we get contact by email, he always respond quickly in time to answer all our enquares. During the journey he always ask us about the food and our birding arrangement, discuss how to meet our expectation in the following days.
Thanks Davis, we have a happy journey in Uganda and hope to visit there again.
