Eddy is a Patient, Easy Going, Super Knowledgeable, and a Great Driver
I went to Uganda as a solo female traveller from Ireland in April 2024.
Eddy picked me up directly from the airport and was with me throughout the whole experience.
I did the gorrilas, chimps and a community tour. All of which I highly recommend. Don’t miss the community tour I learned so much about local traditions and businesses and even got to meet a traditional healer which was a real once in a lifetime experience.
The trip is excellent value when you consider the cost of the permits which go into conservation and to be honest still great value. When you go to the parks and meet the rangers and guides, they are all so well educated and trained and the animals are so well looked after it’s the only way we can contribute to the great work they are doing.
The food, and accommodation were way beyond my expectations. I highly recommend going local. I never got sick, the quality of the food and fresh fruit and juice etc is so high I actually think I’ve added years to my life as a result of this trip.
Uganda is a hidden treasure, everyone is so nice, the land is so green and fertile. I’ve travelled to African countries before and been on safari, but Uganda was truly unique, the African jungle and its abundance of primates is truly magical.
I never felt unsafe at any stage, nobody bothered me and I didn’t lose any possessions or have any issues. Uganda is definitely a place that a female solo traveller can go and feel comfortable.

An Amazing Adventure in Uganda.
Eddie, at Birchill Expeditions, provided me, as a solo traveler, with an amazing experience for 4 days in Uganda. He set me up for gorilla and chimp trekking (get yourself in shape before gorilla trekking) and arranged/provided land and water safaris. His choices for rest/relaxation at the end of each day were well chosen. Uganda is a special place and Eddie organized it all to perfection, many thanks!

Highly recommended
Good prices and good services!! The exchange of information is very fluid; Eddie responded quickly and answered all my questions, which is why I chose to do the Gorilla trekking with Birchill Expeditions. The guide and driver assigned to me was very attentive and punctual, always willing to help me. The safari went according to plan, but the experience of meeting the gorillas is extraordinary, very exciting. I am recommending my friends to do this safari

Well organized, excellent experience
They took care of everything very professionally and when I had some personal preferences they were very considerate. Everything on the itinerary was fully executed. They also went out of their way to help me get to my next destination which wasn't even part of the tour.
And on the Bwindi gorilla trekking, we saw so many gorillas upclose, it was just once in a lifetime experience.

Wonderful 4 days safari Gorillas and Queen Elizabeth park
Had an amazing time in Uganda on my safari which was perfectly organised By Birchill expeditions, communication from very first time was so swift and they my booking so smooth and easy.
I did gorillas but this was an amazing experience in Uganda that I had on my bucket list, being close to them that's a breath taking moment in life, I also had an amazing time at Lake Bunyonyi relaxing and doing a canoe around the lake.
The boat cruise and the game drive in Queen Elizabeth national park were really amazing and wonderful, had a chance to alot of animals crocodiles, lions, leopard, lots of elephants.
Accommodation was so excellent and the services offered were really wonderful
Communication between me and Laura was so great.
I highly recommend them for your safari.
