When making arrangements they were accommodating, the tour lived up to my expectations
My private birding trip with Jerodi Africa Safari was 21 days. They met me at the airport and brought me to my accommodation and a few minutes later I was birding. Great first impression.
My guide Issac and my driver Ivan were both excellent. Issac was very professional and helpful all the time. When a bird was spotted his verbal directional skills were first rate. After identifying the bird he took out his field guide and showed me the bird in the book. This was very helpful to me. I felt we were a birding team. Sometimes I would take a photo of a faraway bird and then Issac would identify it. If for some reason I did not agree with his identification, I would tell him so and he would very patiently and diplomatically indicate why his identification was correct.
I always bring along my laptop, if we had a long drive ahead of us, I would edit my photos as we drove and if I needed help with the identification of a bird, Isaac was there to help me.
I came to Uganda with an injured knee, which meant I could not walk quickly, Issac simply adjusted his pace. If I needed assistance on rough terrain, he offered a hand.
On most birding trips, local guides were used. Again, all were really excellent. One particular guide stood out for me. I cannot remember her name but I understand she is one of the top female birders in Uganda. My goodness when we went out with her, she spotted so many birds. It seemed that every few minutes she would call out another bird
Bird guides are very important to the success of the trip. Often the driver is overlooked. I feel that I put my life in the hands of the driver. I have been on many birding trips and have had a wide variety of drivers. Ivan drove very safely and I was never anxious about my safety. I would rate Ivan in the top of the list of drivers I have had.
When I asked him to use my camera for a photo, he did such a good job. I asked him to take a video of the Shoebill because I was nervous to stand up in the boat. He took such an excellent video, I have shown it to many people and always given Ivan credit for taking it.
On another note, it was the first vehicle I could actually charge my devices, that was a plus for me.
All and all I would highly recommend Jerodi Africa Safari.

A 360-degree tour of Uganda!
During our three-week tour, we saw countless animals (not just gorillas, but also elephants, giraffes, lions, and leopards!), hiked with breathtaking views, visited villages, fully immersing ourselves in their daily lives, and relaxed in hospitable and well-kept lodges. Our two guides, Robert and Ivan, provided us with a wealth of information and took great care of us, ensuring a safe and enjoyable trip. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic African experience!
NB: The "African massage" is a must-try!!

Don't Just See Uganda, Experience Uganda
I did a specialized 'tour' whete I was able to do two weeks of living with a Ugandan family and volunteering with several women's agricultural groups near Lugazi. THE EXPERIENCE WAS AMAZING! Living with a family gave me genuine experiences into what village life in Uganda is like. And the volunteering was a way to work alongside village women and experience Ugandan farming and how they feed their families.
If you want to not just see Uganda, but experience it, then ask about their volunteering experience.

Robert is friendly and observant which made my experience more than enjoyable!!
From the first moment me and my friend were introduced to Robert he welcomed us for the experience in such an authentic and engaging way. He strives to educate while also being actively receptive to what his travelers are seeking out. He is always reliable when it comes to answering texts and phone calls to avoid any kind of confusions! We loved our experience and I can say that it was worth the time and money!

Robert is an energetic, welcoming, and knowledgeable host which made the experience all the better
This trip has exceeded my expectations and made me fall in love with Uganda and the residents of Uganda. Robert the host is extremely friendly and his desire to communicate and understand our needs throughout my friends and I visit has been extremely helpful. In addition to his communication skills he is a very ambitious human always aiming to expand his knowledge on various subjects. He has taught my friend and I so much and showed us more than just the beauty of Uganda but also the culture and people of Uganda. I highly recommend this adventure to anyone interested in coming to Uganda!

Robert and Ivan went over and beyond to accomodate my every need
I had an incredible experience with Jerodi Africa Safari during our rainy season tour of Queen Elizabeth and Lake Mburo National Parks in Uganda. Despite the rainfall, the trip was well-organized, and communication with the team was excellent from the start. They were responsive, flexible, and made sure our itinerary suited our needs and interests. Robert and Ivan were knowledgeable, friendly, and always ensured my safety while making the most of every opportunity for wildlife viewing.
The service and reliability were impressive, with every transfer and activity happening smoothly. Accommodations were comfortable and offered great meals, making the trip feel both adventurous and relaxing. We found the experience to be great value for moneywith high-quality service throughout. Seeing wildlife in their lush, rain-soaked environment was truly special, and I left with unforgettable memories and deep appreciation for Uganda’s natural beauty.
