Life-changing safari experience in Uganda
We came to Uganda unsure if we'd be able to do a safari and left with an incredible, unforgettable experience. Mouche (Musa), Managing Director of African Eco Tours, was our kind, knowledgeable, well-organized guide of Uganda. Within hours of notice, Musa put together a packed 3-day itinerary that included trekking with chimps and white rhinos and multiple game drives to see the variety of animals in Murchison Falls National Park. We also stayed in the magical Nile Breeze Bamboo Lodge, which is close to the park. The price was super reasonable and one of the best by far for our package.
Musa not only was a great and efficient guide, getting us everywhere we needed to be so we could see everything on our list, but he also was a super passionate and knowledgeable teacher about all things Uganda (from nature to culture etc), a new friend (so fun to hang out and chat with), and the best driver in the game (he can navigate Kampala city streets faster than the Google Maps ETA, every time). Also Musa has many connections across the locations we visited, including people he has known for many years, such as the ranger, O.J., who rode with use through the National Park and shared his knowledge. Watching their friendship and banter was an additional highlight of our game drives.
I highly recommend you book African Eco Tours for your safari and exploration activities in East Africa, especially Uganda. You will have a blast and see some gorgeous sites. I know we'll be back to visit some of our new wishlist destinations with Musa.
smart, knowledgeable, value for money.
Our guide, Musa did execute his work as he had documented it. He kept time, and we also didnt disappoint him. Day 1 we went to the Rhino sanctuary, saw the Rhinos and later set out to the Murchison National Park. Saw the water falls and headed to the Bamboo village resort, we did swim in the evening as it was too hot and after a long day. 2nd day we did a game drive & boat cruise and we saw the leopard, giraffe, elephants, crested crane, crocodile, baboons, hippopotamus.
Musa kept teaching us throughout the journey, communication was top notch, service was good and we did get value for money.
Finally on the last day, he took us through Bulisa and we witnessed the oil sites, came through Hoima and we also witnessed the home city stadium.
It was indeed a nice experience, it was a family tour and the kids really enjoyed the trip.
