Fantastic experience with Francis! We shall repeat.
Francis, our guide provided by Nature Connect, proved to be highly professional, punctual, fully reliable, and friendly. He was always flexible and thoughtful enough to accommodate our needs. He is very knowledegeable of wildlife and unbeatable to spot species that are not easily seen, like lions. He is also good at explaining to his clients the specificities of Uganda as a country, if they are interested. He knows how to be present to the extent required, and discreet when needed so that your trip can be intimate if you wish. Altogether, our safari in Murchison Falls national park was a great experience. We are seriouly considering visiting other Ugandan parks with this company.

Nature Connect Safaris really made our trip so special! They helped us customize and adjust the itinerary to what we wanted to see and do. Francis, our tour guide, was the best! He is so kind and helpful, and helped us see all the best things. We will definitely be going with this Safari company next time we come!

Amazing experience! Francis is an exceptional tour guide!! 10/10 recommend
This was my 3rd safari experience, and by far the best. Francis was above & beyond the best guide I've ever had. The communication was great. He is a great & safe driver and always on time. He knows how to track down the animals and does his best to give you the best experience possible. He became like a friend and I hope to go with this company again.

With Francis, most exciting wildlife experiences and relaxing tour of the awesome beauty of Uganda.
The company booked our trip swiftly and provided all the detailed information that we needed. Our very professional and exceptional guide gave us thorough information for the days activities and was always punctual. He spoke clearly and knowledgeably.
The tour was followed according to our plan, however, Francis was willing to add a few more ‘gems’ to our daily plan which made our experience in Uganda a most wonderful one.
All in all a most delightful experience that we were wished would never end.

Staying in the Nature house
Everything was fine. I felt like I’m near a real nature world. Felt so comfortable and peaceful to stay in hotel with Ugandan food. I woke up early morning and went out to the safari. Unbelievable live animals and beautiful green zone. We don’t need to say anything. Just listen and see the nature what they are.
Thank you for all arrangement and guide us for safe trip. I wish I can visit again to see elephants next time. Yap.

A summer in the beautiful country of Uganda
To start off- Safety was a big concern when we first arrived but we were taken care of and guided very well by Mr. Francis, a tour guide from the company. It was overall a culturally enriching trip, we got to see a lot in very less time, which was good. The overall plan for the trip was good and we thus made it possible for us to fit a lot of activities that interested us. Highly recommend this service.

Francis Rukundo found the animals!
The experience that took my breath away was watching a lioness feed. But my camera and I got to see so many additional things and animals that were magnificent. Our guide Francis Rukundo was patient with my goals. My experience with Africa was a photography dream come true. More importantly, my respect for the magnificent landscape and the animals that call it home encouraged me to have a more proactive attitude about helping to preserve Africa's treasures.

Francis is a wild animal magnet!
We had an extraordinary safari in Murchison Falls National Park with Francis Rukundo, founder of Nature Connect Safaris Uganda. He not only had an uncanny sense of where to find wild animals but he was very knowledgeable about the behavior and habitat of various species. He also respected the animals and tried to make our impact on them and their environment minimal. Having said this, I got the best photos of lions I have every taken anywhere in Africa, particularly a female eating an antelope at sunset. I marveled at the fact that he was able to spot a leopard in the bush that was incredibly well camouflaged.
In addition to his ability to ferret out elusive creatures, Francis is very affable. We felt so comfortable with him, it was almost like he was an old friend. We asked a thousand questions and he patiently answered our queries. He is proficient at speaking English and can tell you about cultural and wildlife issues. He provided us with excellent service and we were always excited to see him. I look forward to traveling with Francis again someday. I highly recommend him and his company.

An unbelievable cultural experience, breathtaking vistas, and magnificent wildlife!
We loved our experience with Nature Connect Safaris Uganda! Our guide was Francis. He made us feel welcome and safe, and could not have been nicer.
The food and accommodation were beyond our expectations but what really made the trip was our guide.
Francis went above and beyond at all times to make our trip spectacular. He was knowledgeable about wildlife and gave us a local’s perspective of the country.
The pure beauty of Uganda was breathtaking, from the power of Murchison Falls, to the ruins of Pakuba. What really made it an unbelievable experience was the friendship, warmth and generosity of the Ugandan people. We highly recommend this company. Ask for Francis, he’s more than just a guide, he’s a wonderful ambassador for Uganda.
