3 days birding
An excellent trip with Paul - very well informed and helpful guide. I particularly enjoyed visiting the swamp to see the shoebills & herons, and Murchison falls. Good accommodation throughout.

Traveling with an 11 year old in Uganda
We traveled September 2015 for two weeks with Instinct Safari, WOW, WOW, WOW! What makes this review slightly different from many is because, beside us 3 women, I brought along my 11 year old daughter. Rabani, of Instinct Safari said that that was the first child he has had on tour and Alma did great! This was actually Alma's third safari in recent years, so I knew she is a great traveler and a pleasure to hang around with. Rabani and our driver, Emma, made this holiday one of the best I have ever been on, which is really something, as we travel a lot. I cannot say enough great things about the people and beauty of the land and animals. Alma loves photography and she was kept busy with the camera recording our entire two weeks. The food in all our lodges, in small restaurants while on the road, as well as packed lunches from the lodges when we were hiking, were of great quality and Alma never had a problem. We stayed in comfortable lodges, travelers hotels as well as permanent tented camps and each one had great, individual charm. As you must be 15 in order to be able to get a permit to see the gorillas and the chimpanzees, Alma was not able to join us on those hikes. She stayed back in the Nkuringo Gorilla Camp by herself while we hiked in Bwindi. What a great place to stay! The entire staff at the lodge made sure Alma was doing fine on her own all day. They offered to take her on a local hike, but she decided to stay and sort out the recent photographs and begin creating her albums that she presented back at her school. When I had the absolute special privilege of spending the entire day with the chimpanzee group in Kibale, Alma went on a gorgeous nature hike with my friend and photographed all the other primates in the area.
On previous safaris, we had a few treks, but often we were sitting the in jeeps for long drives between locations and also on game drives. For this trip, we purposely built in a lot of physical activities. We had horse-back riding, morning balloon ride with champagne breakfast, a couple boat trips, a hike to see the golden monkeys, another 20 kilometer hike through Bwindi besides the visit to the gorillas and the chimpanzees. We moved almost every nigh,t but two, in order to be able to take in all the parks and sights we wanted to visit in these two weeks. When we walked through villages, many were interested with Alma as they normally only see older tourists. We visited a local school and planted trees with the eco club. The children were so interested in talking with Alma. Although she is rather shy, Alma had such a great time. We were all quite tired in the end, but we would do it all again tomorrow if we could. Alma had no problem keeping up and did it with such great spirit. Rabani and Emma were so informative throughout the entire journey that I really believe she learned more in those two weeks than she would ever learn about Uganda in her geology, geography, social studies, economics and biology classes back home.
Without a doubt, we will return to Uganda. I would love to bring the rest of my family to see the gorillas, chimpanzees and everything else that made us fall in love with Uganda. We might have to wait until Alma is old enough to get her permit in 3 more years...can I wait that long?? probably not!! We would love to combine a trip to Rwanda and Uganda Alma said, no problem, Mom, just call up Rabani at Instinct Safari and he will plan it all out for us again. We are all facebook friends now, so easy to stay in touch. Thanks once more Rabani and Emma for everything. Tori
