An Awesome, Unforgettable Journey through Uganda with an Incredible Tour Guide
5/5

A driver-guide can either make or break a safari vacation experience.
Having Frank as our safari guide made this trip into something truly memorable. From the beginning, he worked with us on all the details of the itinerary, in customizing the trip to meet our expectations as well as making last minute changes that we needed to make. We had so many questions and he was so patient, responsive and accommodating.
When we met him in person, it felt like we were meeting an old friend. He just makes you feel comfortable. Frank is warm, friendly, upbeat and so knowledgeable about the country, its people and especially the mammals & BIRDS! We were not real birders when we first came to Uganda but Frank educated us so much about the beautiful birds of Uganda that we have since become birders!!
Frank is a great wildlife spotter too. He would be driving from one location to another and then pull over to point out a colobus monkey or a long crested eagle as well as spotting lions & leopards etc. He would always position the vehicle just right so we could take our many pictures & even started to take his own pictures and we would compare our pictures. Frank is a photographer's guide. He knows what you want and has the patience to wait for the perfect picture!
We made an ambitious itinerary over 13 days that meant A LOT of driving all over Uganda but time with Frank was so well spent! We had great conversations and we all laughed a lot. Time just flew by. All the details of the trip from accommodations to picnic lunches to boat rides and gorilla trekking were all so carefully planned out, there were no surprises. He's a great guy and he made our trip as memorable and wonderful as it was.
We encourage everyone to plan a trip with Frank as you will not regret the decision. We highly recommend him and would be more than happy to share our experience and answer any questions that people may have.

Frank ROCKS!!!!
5/5

This was our second trip with Frank, last year he took us through Rwanda and Uganda. This year we were back for more to Uganda, the most beautiful country in Africa. Who we are? The couple well travelled focussing on nature and nature photography. Who is Frank? The guy who knows all the answers. A perfect off-road driver, negotiator, super organizer, filed chef, animal spotter, good listener, special needs dealer and a perfect guide! You name the animal we will find it for you and even make it stay still to pose for a picture. Frank has good , competitive prices for the services and places you would normally pay way too much, and in case your pocket is not very deep he will make also budget holidays you will never forget. We travelled twice with him and we will be back for more. He organizes tours, groups or individual visitors by himself throughout Central and East Africa. Frank is peoples friendly, gay friendly, everybody friendly. He understands your expectations and needs, and will try his best to fulfil your dreams about perfect holidays. Anybody a gorilla? A chimp? A shoebill? No problem! Frank will get one for you and make it stay in the perfect light in front of your camera. Don't believe me, see my Instagram: peterofpoland . Thank you Frank and hopefully see you soon!

From the start of our tour Frank explain everything clearly his knowledge was above and beyond our expectations. Very interesting tour.

Easily the best tour guide in Africa !
5/5

My wife and I have toured six times in different parts of Africa but no experience comes close to our 17 days with Frank Tours . Frank is incredibly well-informed and well-connected. We loved his warm relationships with people in every corner of the country and he displayed the same warmth to us from the moment we met . What a wonderful sense of humour. He anticipates every thing , so that all is smooth. He is a legend in Uganda and it was an honour to have had him as our guide for 17 days and a friend forever.

in one word : Amazing
5/5

It's was in one word: Amazing.

We were with 7 persons for the safari in Queen Elizabeth park, so he rented a jeep for us, wich was great.
Along the way there was also a chance to stop for food and drinks.
Frank stayed in contact with persons from the park, that's why we could see a group op 8 lions on our first day !
the next 2 days we saw a lot of different wildlife in the park and kazinga channel.
The communications between our group and franks was also good. we could ask a lot of information and he would give it to us.

so all in all it was a very great experience, with a great guide !
So thanks to you Frank !

Exploring Uganda
4/5

We did a safari with seven students and wanted it to be as cheap and localas possible.
And Frank tried to listen and adapted the safari to our wishes. He made us experience the 'full' African life
For example we went camping in tents nearby hippo's and we ate food made by locals.
He is a very spontanous and experienced guide, knows a lot about the country and animals.

(Also he speaks pretty well dutch.)

Just A-MA-ZING. He did everything in his power to make us have the greatest time of our lives!
5/5

Frank is someone with +10 yrs of experience in guiding safaris. This makes him the perfect person for this unique experience. He could answer every question about animals or plants during the trip. We learned a lot! Before, during and after communication was very clear. He put our comfort first, which is very reassuring.
