Friendly, accommodating and professional tour with knowledgable and passionate guide
Kate responded quickly with an itinerary already tailored to our initial message. She then was very responsive and flexible to help us adapt the itinerary to our interests and budget. On the safari itself, we had a brilliant time with Rodgers, an experienced and knowledgeable guide. He spotted so many animals we never would have seen without his guidance, and his knowledge of and passion for the flora, fauna and culture of Uganda is unmatched. The vehicle was very comfortable and suited to the journey. Accommodations exceeded our expectations. Overall we would be very happy to recommend Bushman Safaris to anyone travelling to Uganda.

Unforgettable Experience with Bushman Safaris
We had a fantastic experience with Bushman Safaris. Kate was instrumental in organizing our trip across Uganda and Tanzania, and everything as extremely well coordinated. A highlight of our journey was the incredible gorilla trekking at Mgahinga National Park — truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Throughout the trip, we felt very well looked after. Even when we encountered delays and cancelled flights, Kate stepped in immediately and went above and beyond to support us. Her dedication and professionalism made a real difference, and we’re very grateful for all her help. Highly recommended!

Stephen was a great guide!
My husband and I completed a 12-day birding and primate safari with Bushman Safaris. Our driver & guide, Stephen, was fantastic! He’s an excellent birder and an experienced guide and professional. We appreciated all the little details he saw to for us (drinking water, checking us in to the hotels, helping us find an ATM and gum boots, etc.) and felt safe and cared for in his hands. We learned and saw so much because of him! Most of the lodges/camps we stayed in quite lovely with good, healthy food. When organizing the trip, I communicated with Kate who was very professional, organized and clear in her communication. It was mostly because of her that I chose Bushman. Shortly before our trip, Kate left and other staff took over our account. These folks were not as professional or friendly and communication was frustrating. I hope they can improve these skills for future clients. Besides the staff communication, where I think Bushman could improve is being clear about what’s included in an itinerary and how long it realistically takes to get from place to place. (GoogleMaps was typically accurate on driving times.) We spent way more hours in a vehicle than we wanted and went to a few destinations that had little value for us. The roads in Uganda are bad once you get off the main highways, so that’s something that guests should be prepared for. It would have been good to have a focused consultation with them prior to finalizing the itinerary to really understand what to expect.
