The most amazing ,life-changing experience
I booked a 3 day tour to go see the gorillas. It has been a childhood dream to see them and Frank tours made it more than I expected. Frank went to so much effort to show, teach and share his experiences with me as we travelled. He is an amazing, warm, friendly and professional man! He communicated with me so well. I really enjoyed the individuality and personalized experience that he brings to his tours. He is also so experienced in the field and everyone along the journey knew him well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Frank for everything! I will be sure to spread the word about your company and highly recommend you. Wishing you every success.

Easily the best tour guide in Africa !
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.

22 days travel with Frank was a great experience
I made with Frank a tour of 22 days in Uganda. We had many times contact by email and he understand what we like and what we don't like.
We saw so many different things people nature and the animals. The north was very special the Karomojong people the nature of Kidepo park was beautiful. Frank had good contact with the people and he likes to do sometimes some different thing and not only to do the touristic things. We had sometimes lunch in local restaurants very nice. We travelled in a good landrover and Frank is a very nice person and a good and safe driver.

A wonderfull Uganda experience with Frank!!
Frank is a great guide and he has given us a fantastic trip through Uganda. He is an experienced driver and we had a safe feeling in the car !! He is a very accessible person, makes contact easily and is spontaneous.
The north of Uganda near the Karamoja was very beautiful and not touristy. Kidepo park with sunset on the lion rock was unforgettable!
yoga every day !!

An experienced local and super friendly guide: the best way to discover Uganda
We managed to design with Frank Tours a personalized tour with the highlights we wanted to visit. Frank was always correct and on time and he let us discover the nicest places in Uganda. He was flexible enough to change plans and proposed alternatives when needed. He knows the country very well but also understands our Western culture and interests. He succeeded in finding the right balance to combine local content with our main goals in visiting Uganda.

Lucky we found Frank Tours Uganda
Frank was very quick and patient in responding to all my email and questions. He helped us book an amazing tour that suited our interest.
So early 2020 we booked that tour for January 2021. Frank got the gorilla and chimpanzee permits, booked all the lodges and we paid 30% deposit.
Then Covid really hid and we were in lock down.
So naturally we were worried how much money we will loose, but Frank was able to cancel all bookings and rebooked for us the same tour without any extra costs one year later!
2022 we finally traveled with Frank 16 days through Uganda, saw 6 different Natl. Parks and thanks to Franks eyesight spotted more animals and birds, that we hoped for. Frank is a pleasure to be with, he tried to find for us every animal we wanted to see. He goes beyond his duties, so when we didn’t see much in the Ishasha area of the Queen Elizabeth Park he organised research trackers which were not on the itinerary and we found the tree climbing lions and a leopard.
From arriving at the airport till our last day of the trip Frank took good care of us.
We can't recommend Frank highly enough, he provided us with an exceptional African experience.

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

in one word : Amazing
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 !
