Fantastic trip with an amazing guide!
5/5

Bush Craft Safaris organised an excellent trip for us, seamless from the airport greeting to the final day. Our guide, Mark, was outstanding. He is passionate, deeply knowledgeable about Uganda, and engaging to talk to.

Mark truly wanted us to have the best time possible. He went out of his way to find the best wildlife sightings on game drives, and even on long travel days, he added in great short stops to break up the drive. His attention to detail was immaculate (even ensuring washrooms were up to standard!). Highly recommend Bush Craft Safaris and Mark for an unforgettable safari!

Really excellent, going out of their way to ensure the best experience for their customers.
5/5

Gorilla tracking in Uganda has always been top of our bucket list, but we also wanted to see the best that Uganda could offer. Our guide, Mark and trainee Joel went out of their way to make sure our experience lived up to our expectations. They became more than just tour guides and ended up as friends by the end of the trip. The gorilla tracking was of course the highlight, but chimpanzee tracking and the boat trip along the Kazinga Channel, where we saw over a hundred elephants along the riverside, were also incredible. All of the lodges were wonderful, with excellent service, food and amazing scenery. Mark was a much more than a fabulous tour guide, always phoning ahead to make sure everything was sorted for our arrival. Bush Craft Safaris did a great job all round and I would thoroughly recommend them if you want a value for money and personable trip to Uganda whilst taking in all the sights this amazing country has to offer.

From affable professional to new friend on the trip of a lifetime

If you are reading this, trying to decide if you should book a safari with Bush Craft Safaris, allow me to allay any apprehension. BCS provided an absolutely amazing safari experience for my wife and I. We booked a 12 day safari with them. Our guide was Allan, and he was absolutely incredible. Allan was incredibly knowledgeable about the fauna and flora in his native national parks, often pointing out details and bits of information about the animals we saw that heightened the experience for us. Furthermore, he was an excellent driver and had deep knowledge of the parks we visited, which I believe helped us to see some things we might not have otherwise. Allan took excellent care of us, making sure we got everywhere we needed to on time, while also allowing us to spend as much time seeing the sights as we wanted. He was incredibly amenable to any slight alterations to the schedule we discussed with him. Also, he made sure we always had water and snacks (every day is a banana day). The accommodation that BCS booked for us was absolutely lovely, with nearly every location providing an experience that really immersed you in the feeling of being on an adventure and being so close to the surrounding natural beauty of Uganda. The food at every location was good, with some places having truly excellent dinners and lunches available. There was a nice mix of local cuisines and western food available nearly everywhere we went. Locals and staff we met were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The children were very cute and hilarious, often eyes going wife and shouting “mzungu!” excitedly and then waving emphatically. As far as wildlife, we saw nearly everything we could have hoped to. We were able to see the Big 5 and so many elephants, hippos, giraffe, crocodiles, monkeys, antelope, zebra and birds. Not to mention the countless other encounters of other wildlife ranging from mongoose to civet. Then of course the trekking days to see the chimpanzees, gorillas and golden monkeys were the highlights of the trip for us. Being able to see these majestic beings was truly something I will carry with me for the rest of my life. The only negative I can think of is that the trip was truly over too soon.

As an extra note I would like to add that we visited during the recent Ebola outbreak. I feel it’s worth saying that Uganda is truly doing an excellent job to contain the outbreak and ensure the safety of its citizens and tourists alike. Nearly everywhere we went there were temperature check stations, and hand sanitizer/hand wash stations were readily available. Obviously everyone must make their own risk assessments, but it was our own personal experience that the risk was low and well controlled.

Truly I cannot say enough about how amazing with trip was. 10/10 rating and Bush Craft Safaris provided an experience second to none.

Amazing from start to finish
