The review below is the personal opinion of biira and not that of SafariBookings.
The worst nature tour
1/5

It was the worst nature tour I have ever experienced in the world.
Departure was an hour late due to the tardiness of the guide.
The guide was grumpy the whole time and didn't explain anything about the animals or the park. He refused to even have a conversation with us. The car was broken down from the start, running at 20 km/h with black smoke and stopping frequently for repairs.
We were forced to cut off our game drive in the middle of the tour to get that car repaired.
My friend was trampled by the car driven by the guide, yet there were no words of apology or concern about his injuries, just a series of lame excuses.
When I reported this to the company, I received no apology or compensation.

Amazing experience & Great staff
5/5

We had a great experience with Vincent and Ecovic Tours. The communication from Vincent from Ecovic Tours was great and we felt very looked after the whole time. Our Tour Driver Adam was very knowledgeable of the local surroundings and had a great passion for his work. Adam went above and beyond for us and was very accommodating and worked very hard to get all our needs met including when we fell ill and had to go to the doctors, Vincent took care of everything and rearranged things for us so we wouldn't miss out on anything. And Vincent also helped us out after hours after our tour had finished, our flight got rescheduled unexpectedly and we were left at the airport but Vincent came to the rescue and arranged airport transportation and accommodation for us even though he didn't have to. We found all the accommodation staff to be very friendly and welcoming too. The food was always delicious and there was always plenty of food all day. We would highly recommend this tour and this tour group to everyone and we are very Thankful that we chose Ecovic Tours and thankful for all of Vincent & Adam's hard work too.

True professionals, Keep it up!
5/5

On April 2024 we were on a stunning 10-days safari tour with our beloved company Ecovic Tours! We were relieved to find such trustable and honest people in this company. 🙏🏼

When you book your safari from far away it's always a gamble to decide who you should trust. Via Whatsapp Ecovic Tours gained our trust by giving us all the informations with pictures and videos we needed to see. We did the 30% payment in advance and hoped this company really exists. They do, haha. They organized everything from our pick up at the airport to our very last day of our trip! We were blessed with the confidence they gave us and the professionalism these guys operated with.

Ecovic Tours helped us in any situation and was even flexible in extending our itinerary as we asked them to do so. They informed us about the fair prices and made the bookings rapidly after we wished for it.

With our guide Joseph we were more than happy! He is an invaluable person with great experience and a very comfortable way of treatment. The way he adapted to our wishes and concerns is remarkable, we have no words to thank him. His driving style is calm and secure, we enjoyed every hour in his car, the time flew by so rapidly! Joseph had very interesting things to tell us about his wonderful country and I'm honored, that he and the people we met on our way, were open to share their culture with us like they did. We felt very welcome!

I haven't described all the impressive things we have seen on our journey because that would let this review explode, haha. Apart from all the wonderful animals sightings that nature blessed us with, we could see breathtaking landscapes, get inspiring insight into Uganda's culture and experience all the warm heartedness of the ugandan people. Joseph took us everywhere we wanted to go. I recommend every national park, but especially the ones with Gorillas and Chimps, as they are also a good variation to the safaris in car.

Thank you Ecovic Tours for this inspiring experience! It changed our way of looking at things and we made a lot of friends on this journey! We liked it so much that we are thinking about coming back within one or two years, lets hope to meet again soon!☺️🫶🏼

Best regards, Solomon & Jordan!

A great Tour Operator & Experience of a lifetime
5/5

Vincent was very attentive and helpful in planning our trip. He helped us clarify many things and without him we probably would not have done gorilla trekking. He helped us answer all questions we had and made sure we were properly prepared.

We are so happy we did it. It was an experience of a lifetime!

We would definitely recommend Vincent & Ecovic Tours if you want to do gorilla trekking or other fun activities around Uganda.

Wonderful experience!
5/5

We had a great experience from requesting an offer till dropping us off at the airport. Vincent well planned our trip and fulfilled our needs as much as possible. Frank was our driver and provided us a great time too. Unfortunately our night game drives had to be cancelled due to safety reasons and we used this spare time to relax at the amazing lodges we were booked!

Accommodating, available, flexible, and friendly!
5/5

Vincent and my Guide, Issa, made my 6-days trip completely wonderful!
I was going for a 6 days trip in Queen Elizabeth National Park, Chimp tracking, Gorilla trekking, and a relax day in Lake Bunyonyi. From the beginning, Vincent made sure to respond to all my questions by being very available. He also adjusted the trip to my needs and interests, and even suggested various options of budget lodge. I felt really included in the process and was informed of every steps. They were always on-time and were very attentive to my interests during the trip!
The budget accommodations were all wonderful, very comfortable, clean, and with great food!
I would completely recommend this company for Ugandan tours!

Thanks again, Ecovic Tours!!!
