Sensational vacation
We traveled for 19 days in a small group (three guests with Isolde Nowak and her husband Jones, and a driver) and look back on indescribable days. Thanks to Isolde and Jones, we had perfect organization and the opportunity to not only see the wildlife but also get to know a little about the lifestyle and the Ugandans themselves. Our driver, Clinton, perfectly navigated the worst roads around Biwindi, Buhoma, and Rushaga and drove us safely the entire way.
The things we were able to experience during this time are indescribable, and the next trip will definitely be organized through Isolde Nowak's Nature Responsible. It's hard to fly home, thank you so much đ

Dream trip with Nature Responsible Safari Isolde Nowak and Jones Tugume
I give this trip 300 out of 100 possible points.
It was my first time experiencing a safari, and I'm more than overwhelmed by everything we were able to experience in 19 days.
But the excitement began much earlier. My wife contacted Isolde Nowak long before the trip. What's particularly cool is that Isolde speaks German quite wellâjoking aside, Isolde is from Germany, and her German is perfect.
What else do you get when the tour company is also the executing company? It was very pleasant not to have a language barrier. After we had the perfect itinerary, it was just a matter of waiting until it started. And then it started, and how! With her well-known German thoroughness, Isolde put on a fireworks display of experiences that left us in awe. The perfect combination in the execution of the trip is created by Isolde and her husband Jones, who is Ugandan and, above all, worked as a ranger with gorillas for a long time, which turned out to be particularly helpful for us.
From rhino tracking, to water game drives and the so-called Drive Games â across the national parks in an off-road vehicle â to tracking on foot and, the two highlights, the tracking of the mountain gorillas. Thanks to Jones's contacts, both treks were not only successful but also characterized by very short distances, which suited my fitness level well. Oh yes, there was also the chimpanzee trek. That requires some fitness, but I was able to manage it.
Many lodges were amazing. From the view from the swimming pool over the national park, the rhino encounter on the way to breakfast (all without fences or barriers), evening visits by hippos on the lodge grounds, to lodges so close to the national parks that various animals pay their respects. All in all, Isolde and Jones know their stuff, and their contacts are invaluable when there's something to check out.
And then there's the warm welcome. No matter what the issue is, preparation, execution, any uncertainties, whatever, Isolde is immediately on hand, and you feel cared for like a little baby and, above all, protected (Jones, as a ranger, never let us out of his sight).
Yes, exactly, we had the privilege of traveling with Isolde and Jones. The concentrated expertise, and even German-speaking in the same car. That's it!!!
And when it comes to cars, there's Clinton to mention. The Formula 1 champion on the roads of Uganda, who thrilled us with his masterful driving skills, although there were times when I simply closed my eyes to protect my blood pressure. Impressive â a man and his car fighting for the happiness of his guests. Thank you, dear Clinton, for your professionalism.
But besides the driving skills, we also got to meet a person who fits perfectly into Isolde and Jones's company. All three have an abundance of heart and are driven by the desire to show their customers as much as possible.
What can we say in conclusion: TOP planning and preparation.
TOP problem-solving and customer service.
TOP processing and service.
TOP sense of security and trust.
TOP price and transparency.
TOP human touch and heart.
TOP recommendation factor.
WE THANK YOU, THE LODGES, AND ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WORKED TO MAKE OUR DREAM HOLIDAY A DREAM.
WE WILL BE BACK, AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ISOLDE AND JONES AND THEIR TEAM.

What a beautiful trip organized by Isolde Novak for Nature Responsabile Safari Uganda
The diversity of landscapes, the multitude of animals and plants was a beautiful cocktail.
After traveling through Tanzania and Botswana this trip will remain my favorite with the gorillas as the highlight.
Uganda offers a beautiful diversity of landscapes and a multitude of animals which make it rich.
Thanks to Clinton driver guide for his service, his patience and his dedication as well as for the âmassages in the carâ đ.
Ugandans have a sense of hospitality through their politeness and kindness.
A good mark also for the different lodges which were each different and always comfortable. The food was very good and plentiful.
I recommend Nature Responsabile Safari Uganda, you will not be disappointed.
Thank you for these beautiful memories

Perfect tour providers for individual experiences
Great offer for Uganda safari. Perfect in the individual coordination of any needs: Special interests, food or any restrictions, preparation, or even the follow-up vacation to Kenya. Communication easy and fast, also by phone. Very good price-performance ratio. A top guide led us through the tour, very friendly, communicative and informative. Any issues that arose on site were also resolved quickly, easily and without complications. Overall, we gained far more impressions and experiences of the country, people and wildlife than we might have expected. Really great.
Everything worked out perfectly. The selected lodges were also excellent. The service companies for the boat trips and the gorilla tour are also worth a special mention, as they are very competent and focused on the interests of the customers.
Highly recommended.

Incredible Wonderful Unforgettable Perfect and so on âŠ.
The most important thing first: The tour was absolutely incredible. I would definitely recommend Nature Responsible Safari Uganda. You take part in a perfectly planned trip that still offers enough space for individual adjustments. I have never experienced anything like it before. Bravo!
Uganda! Not only is the landscape beautiful, impressive and varied, the people are also friendly and helpful. The rich wildlife is spectacular. Isolde and Jones from Nature Responsible Safari Uganda, who also accompanied us on the trip, presented us with a full bag of impressions beautifully packaged.
The drivers Fred and Clinton (should I actually say drivers? Actually they were more like guides with a broad knowledge of their country) drove us safely in the very comfortable vehicles and were also very patient on the game drives when it was time to get the ultimate photo.
The accommodations were also very well chosen, either they were above average or they were good and very well located, which is important given the sometimes poor road conditions, for example if you want to go gorilla trekking but don't want to set up in the middle of the night.
What did I forget? Well, the food. You never had to worry about that, it was all superbly organized by the team and was really very, very good and varied!!
My expectations of the trip were more than 100% fulfilled and I say WEBALE.

Like their name: We got to know the beautiful nature of Uganda in a responsible way
Our safari adventure with Nature Responsible Safari Uganda was nothing short of extraordinary. From the beginning their team demonstrated genuine warmth and an impressive level of professionalism. Every detail was carefully plannedâfrom the accommodations to the seamless travel arrangementsâensuring a memorable experience.
The knowledgeable guides added tremendous value to our trip, sharing insightful stories about Ugandaâs rich wildlife and cultural heritage.
What truly set this travel agency apart was their commitment to personalized service. They took the time to understand our interests and tailored the itinerary to ensure we experienced the very best of Ugandaâs natural wonders.

Dreamlike journey
In October we spontaneously decided to travel to Uganda in December. Ms. Nowak put the trip together for us within a few hours. Even when our outbound flight was cancelled and we arrived a day early, Ms. Nowak immediately took care of accommodation for us. She wasn't there, but was always available. We left our charger for the camera in a lodge, and it was delivered to us two days later. Clinton, our driver for the two weeks, is a very warm and funny guide who we had a lot of fun with. We can absolutely recommend Nature Responsibility Safari Uganda Ltd. We felt in good hands and it was certainly not our last trip to Uganda.

Excellent service. 12 days with everything well coordinated from airport to airport.
Nature Responsible has built for my son and me and unforgetable experiencie. We were surprised with the different experiences from day one. Chance our guide made us feel comfortable and happy every moment. We did not have any lack of coordination or problem with acomodation, meals or the different activities. We did so many things that we need a book to write about these days. Thank you Isolde and thank you Chance!

Great tailor-made trip to Uganda and parts of Ruanda
Very well organised, tailor-made individual trip (2 pers.) to the highlights of Uganda ending in Kigali/Ruanda. Very helpful and detailed advice what to pack (e.g. scotch to fix mosquito nets, gaiters etc.) and local expectations (tips). Our guide John was extremely knowledgeable on wild animals and societal and political issues which was a great asset. The programme was intense, but also flexible if we wanted to change or adapt parts of it. The so-called low season was ideal in terms of fewer visitors (for gorilla tracking we were only two) and it rained only 2-3 times, not a real problem. Including Ruanda and the Dian Fossey gorilla fund information centre is recommendable, since it is provides a different perspective on the region and Kigali is quite different from Kampala.

Efficient, friendly, generous and helpful.
The trip was magnificent. John was a fantastic host, guide and ambassador. The accommodations exceeded our expectations and the wildlife was sublime. Uganda is as beautiful as I remembered it from 30 years ago, I truly understand why you have made it your home.
Kind regards
