A Gateway to Unforgettable Adventures and Lasting Memories
I had the pleasure of embarking on a 2 night, 3 day tour of Murchison National Park Safari in Uganda with an exceptional tour guide. This experience was truly unforgettable, thanks to the guide's Living from Uganda Family Tour extensive knowledge, professionalism, and passion for the region.
Throughout the journey, the guide demonstrated a deep understanding of the park's flora and fauna, enriching our exploration with fascinating insights and anecdotes. Their ability to spot wildlife and point out significant landmarks added immeasurable value to the trip.
Moreover, the guide's friendly and accommodating nature created a positive and enjoyable atmosphere for the entire group. They went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt comfortable and engaged throughout the journey.
The itinerary was well planned, allowing us to witness the park's diverse ecosystems, from the powerful Murchison Falls to the vast savannah teeming with wildlife. The guide's commentary provided context to our surroundings, making the experience both educational and awe inspiring.
Overall, the tour guide played a pivotal role in making this excursion to Murchison National Park an enriching and memorable adventure. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a well guided and immersive experience in this remarkable natural habitat.
The Perfect Ugandan Tour
I cannot imagine anyone going to more lengths than Otwikende did to make sure that we had the absolute best time in Uganda. From the beginning he was extremely enthusiastic and proactive in planning the itinerary, answering all our questions and accommodating every one of our requests. The facilities he provided in terms of the car, the accommodations, the food, it was all top notch.
There were so many times he went beyond our expectations to make our trip just a little bit more special, whether it was speaking to the rangers to make sure that we could trek less to see a closer gorilla family, or taking us to a hidden viewpoint that gave us the best sunset of our lives. And most of all I'm indebted to him because I had a critical health emergency and if not for his help and tireless work it would have gone very badly. I promise that you will not find a better person to make sure you have the ultimate Ugandan experience.

Extremely professional and considerate
This safari in Uganda was an experience that will forever be etched in my memory. From the amazing gorillas to the vast savannas filled with wildlife, this adventure surpassed all expectations. But what truly made this journey extraordinary was our exceptional guide, Jackson.
Jackson's passion for Uganda's wildlife and landscapes was evident from the moment we met. He possessed a deep knowledge of all the sights and a keen eye for spotting animals.
One unforgettable moment was when I almost got run over by gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
In conclusion, our Uganda safari with Jackson as our guide was an exceptional adventure. His passion, knowledge, and commitment to providing an unforgettable experience made this journey truly special. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an immersive and enriching wildlife encounter in the heart of Africa.

Amazing Trip with Uganda Family Tours and Travel !!!
I had an amazing trip with Uganda Family Tours and Travel in December of 2023. This was my first safari as well as my first trip to Africa, and it far exceeded my expectations! I went on a 10-day safari, during which time we experienced most of Uganda.
During our trip we saw not only the big 5 but also the gorillas and the chimps. Our guide was Jackson Otwikende who we got to know well over the course of those 10 days. Not only is Jackson a sensational guide, but he's also very professional, incredibly kind and personable, and displays a great sense of humor. In addition, Jackson is highly knowledgeable and has a wealth of information when it comes to all things about the wildlife. His love for his country, its history, the people, and their culture was evident throughout our trip.
I would highly recommend Ugandan Family Tours and Travel, and especially Jackson!

Perfect for solo female travelers
My guide was Jackson O. He met me at the airport with a welcoming smile and a wonderful spirit.
As a solo female traveler, first impressions and gut instincts are paramount - I immediately felt at ease. Jackson was open to all my questions and shared the real Uganda with me. He is an expert on all things Uganda: history, economy, agriculture, social fabric, and politics. He tells it like it is, which can be a rare quality among those in the tourism industry. He was a true gentlemen and gave me good advice on many things: how to get a thorn out of my finger, which hotels to stay at, and which tours were suitable.
Jackson O. possesses the rare quality of being able to adapt to what the client wants and needs- very good people skills.
Well done, Uganda Family Tours!
