A very relaxed and enjoyable way to see the beauty Uganda has to offer.
We were very happy with the overall way the tour was managed. We had good service from our guide Dan who made sure we were well looked after, which is important being abroad and having no knowledge of the areas visited. We felt safe and were particularly impressed with the lodges which were comfortable and friendly. Good food was an added bonus.

Enjoyable safari vacation.
We had a good time visiting Uganda. We saw the chimpanzees in Kibale, lions and other animals in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and zebras in Lake Mburo. The highlight was our time with the gorillas in Bwindi. Dan - thank so much!
Dan the Man
Dan, the owner of Kisoro Tours is someone I met several years ago. I help run a charity based near to the town of Mbale, 7 hours by road, from Entebbe.I book Dan to drive me there and once in Mbale, to drive me around locally for a few days. He is an excellent, safe driver, and a most pleasant person to be around.
Dan has never actually planned an itinerary, nor booked hotels/lodges on my behalf, since I already know exactly where and when, I am going.
As far as his vehicle is concerned, it's a 7 seater jeep, comfortable but not especially luxurious.
I would certainly recommend Dan as a driver.
Dan's prices are high, he charged us $170 per day, I think the going rate is nearer $100 per day excluding fuel.

very good, I will use again if that is the case
Wonderful experience about the tour.
The bad or sad part was the Hotel. The quality of the service need to be improved.

It was OK
I booked my tour with Dan from Kisoro Tours Uganda. The safari itself was good, I enjoyed the trekking and the gorillas, however, I did not like how at the last moment before our arrival Dan tried to raise the prices of our safari (250 USD extra per person, because he had to organize additional car - rental of additional car with the driver for 3 days is less than 200 USD in Uganda), which did not happen, but still the move left bad aftertaste in my mouth... I also was severely disappointed with the Broadbill Forest Camp - truly a terrible accommodation! Still not completed - 6 years after initiation, old tents, water trickling from the shower, no water in the toilet the last day, personnel without any idea about how to manage the camp and not familiar with the hospitality concept whatsoever, electricity only until 10 PM and then overwhelming darkness, microscopic food portions, on the trekking day we were served rice and vegetables as it was raining so nobody in the camp felt like going down to the village to buy some much needed proteins etc. Initially we were thinking we should have stayed in the forest longer than just 2 nights, but after seeing and experiencing the camp, we were glad that we didn't cater for longer stay. 2 other persons from our group were staying in a different location, which judging from their descriptions was much more liveable. Maybe Broadbill Forest Camp is comparatively cheaper to the organizers... My advise: go for Kisoro tours, but avoid the Broadbill Forest Camp!
