Solo trip to Uganda and Rwanda
I went on a solo female safari trip to see the golden monkeys, gorillas, and chimps in Rwanda and Uganda. Blair was a fantastic guide—professional, kind, and incredibly friendly. He was a safe and skilled driver who always knew the best and most efficient routes.
Blair also has a fascinating background in healthcare, public health, and statistics, which led to many engaging conversations. He was very thoughtful—taking me to Ugandan and Rwandan buffets so I could try more local food instead of just the lodge meals, introducing me to fresh sugarcane for the first time, and even getting me charcoal pills when I had stomach issues. He would slow down whenever I wanted to take photos or videos, often without me even needing to ask.
One of the highlights of the trip was visiting his hometown at the end, where I got to try the local beer with his friends and learn more about his life. Thank you for a beautiful safari that was not just about wildlife, but also a deeply enriching and eye-opening cultural experience.
