Excellent trip, careful in the details and an excellent driver (James). I will definitely repeat this exciting journey to see the gorillas again.

Amazing Adventure!
5/5

We went on a 10-day trip to Uganda at the end of July, and it’s hard to put into words what we experienced. It was a truly special journey that touched our hearts, and we will remember it forever.

Uganda is still a hidden gem, not yet crowded with tourists, and that made us appreciate its beauty even more. The country felt very safe, and the local people welcomed us with kindness and genuine curiosity.

Nature was absolutely stunning — from lush forests and endless landscapes to beautiful hills, mountains, golden sunsets, and amazing wildlife. Trekking to see gorillas and chimpanzees was something magical — almost unreal. Looking into their eyes, so similar to ours, deep in the jungle, was an unforgettable moment. It’s something you can’t fully describe — you just have to experience it.

We were lucky to be guided by Kasule and Salvan, two wonderful guides. They were always patient, friendly, and ready to help with anything we needed. Their love for their country and their deep knowledge of the land and animals made the trip even more special.

A big thank you also to Destination Jungle for organizing everything so well and making this trip feel real, exciting, and full of meaning. It wasn’t just a vacation — it was a true adventure and a journey we’ll never forget.

Perfect experience and perfect professional at work
5/5

We did a Bwindi treck with Destination Jungle to see Gorillas in June. It was one of destinations from our honeymoon.

It was one of the best experiences in our life.

Thanks to Jack, our local guide, because thanks to you our experience of Uganda was perfect

Of course we will advise your company, and your country to all our friends.

Reliable and Good
5/5

I used Destination Jungle while travelling to Uganda. I had constant communication with Constatino from booking to journey. I was a single woman travelling by myself and felt comfortable and safe with his guide/driver. I would have liked better accomodations but I dont think at the time they were available. I would absolutely use them. I thought the dollars spent was well worth what they delivered and then some. They can certainly use me as a reference in the US.

Fantastic 3 weeks in Uganda
5/5

We decided to travel with Destination Jungle for different reasons. The main ones were the trip schedule they proposed, the excellent quality price & of course the great communication with their contact person Christina.
We were very happy to travel with them. We had a great time in Uganda & would recommend them to anybody going to Uganda.
The locations were fantastic, our guide was excellent & we saw everything we dreamt of & more.
The hightlights of the trip for us were Murchisons NP, Gorillas (obviously) & Kibale forest.
Thanks a lot DJ for guiding us in Uganda

Amazing safari with Destination Jungle! Highly recommended!
5/5

My father and I just returned from an epic trip with Destination Jungle. We booked the DJ Uganda Safari 9 Days 8 Nights and chose the optional extension to Lake Mburo for the last day for a total of 10 days and 9 nights. Our trip took us to Murchison Falls, Budongo Forest to see chimpanzees, two parts of Queen Elizabeth National Park, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park to see gorillas and to Lake Mburo. Our guide was Charles and he was exceptional. It was just the two of us and Charles and it was the experience of a lifetime. We saw so many animals and birds in all the parks, including 8 lions, a leopard, a hyena, a jackal, giraffes, zebras, crocodiles, hippos, warthogs, and many others. We loved watching the chimps and the gorillas and it was interesting to compare the two primate species. We were unusually lucky; it was just the two of us and a guide for the gorilla experience. Charles was always looking for ways to improve our experience and we enjoyed getting to know him. He was a very capable driver which is important on some of the roads we traveled on during the safari. Uganda is improving the roads now, but some of them were pretty gnarly so we needed a good driver to navigate them! We also met Christina from DJ, and she was very friendly and helpful. The lodges were beautiful- far nicer than I had expected, and accommodations were lovely. The food, especially the soups served at the beginning of dinner, were some of the best I've had. I highly recommend a visit to Uganda and a safari with Destination Jungle. We will be back and we'll use them again!

Thanks, excellent organisation
5/5

Everything worked out very well. I had a good driver, and coming back I still made it to my connecting flight. I was visiting the mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest, and I was very lucky. I could see them very, very well!

well organized and safe trip through Uganda
5/5

We booked our family vacation through destination jungle. We were in contact via Mail and phone and Christina was helpfull and a knowledgable local advisor to discuss the comfort and advantages and disadvantages of the various lodges. It was a fantastic trip, we have seen most of the highlights (only the leopard didn't want to show up), were driven safely from Charles our driver who answered all our questions and was always prepared to talk about the country, the life and the animals in Uganda. We will definitly come back.

Unexpected Uganda. Nature, Safari and much more
5/5

I didn't expect to find Uganda so fascinating.
It was a while that me and my husband were planning this trip and I have to say that Destination Jungle was just the perfect solution. Every day our driver and guide took care of our tour and explain to us what we would have seen and done. He was also very flexible with our expectation that were pretty high. I had a wonderful experience and I would recommend to all to join this tour to celebrate nature and appreciate our earth.
