Review about Kidepo Valley National Park by Isabelle
The landscape is really nice and people there were more authentic. Unique NP to see wild ostriches.

The Pearl of Africa indeed!
Home2Africa and Ballam were such great guides. Uganda was so stunning and a mix of wildlife with Chimps and Gorillas and also safaris was just perfect. Just do your research on areas that may be unsafe ie by Congo border as a few terrorist activities have been happening and we got close to those areas at times.

Uganda deserves its title as the pearl of Africa.
We were fortunate to stay 3 weeks for a trip around Uganda with N'Goni safaris, from end November to mid December 2023. Despite the rain season still ongoing the weather was pretty good all the time. The boat ride to see the source of Nile in Jinja was really good and a good start (we did not feel doing rafting). The Kidepo NP was on our tour, and the 8 hours of "African massage" going there form Sipi falls (the road is still being built) were soon forgotten. Another highlight was the Rhino sactuary which is also a great experience. The other big NP were also good to see and experience. Not to mention Bwindi NP and the amazing gorilla trek!! This is THE place to see gorilla!
We were able to see the big five (even if lions were not that close and absent from due to floading in the Ishasha region) and many other species (birds and mammals).
The landscape was varied (with the largest tea plantations we had ever seen), and we had the opportunity to meet different cultures in Uganda.
We definitely recommend Uganda as a country for safari and discovery of Africa.

It’s stunning and very welcoming
All 3 parks were special. In Masai Mara we saw many different animals and there was the possibility to visit a Masai village. In Lake Nakuru we saw the rhino and many different birds. In Amboseli you could see the Kilimanjaro. In our lodge near to Amboseli a group of Masai was performing dances and the characteristic jumps. That was fun. The weather was warm, around 20 to 25 degrees and rain was occurring very seldomly. Our driver drove very good and safely and he knew how to handle every situation perfectly. We felt very safe.
