Exceptional beauty and poverty.

I visited the western half of Uganda that is full of green and wonderful. Murchison and Queen Elizabeth National Parks provide the opportunity to meet lots of wild species, and In Bwindi Impenetrable Forest you can visit gorillas. The beauty of Bunyonyi lake is go beyond everything. The country is basically safe, the lodges are below European standards, but the surroundings and athmosphere make them unforgettable experiences. The Ugandan kitchen is really good with mainly pork, chicken, beef and fish dishes, and a lot of fruits (mainly water melon and ananas). While taking the long routes between national parks you can watch the villages, markets and people along the road.

Our highlight was definitely the gorilla trecking. It was amazing to so those huge primates from very close and oberve them eating, playing and commuinicating. It was amazing how clean all the accomodations were on the whole trip. People are friendly, talkative and welcoming. We felt safe on the whole trip. We will come back soon again.

My friends and I spent 12 days in Uganda in July. This was our first time to travel to the country. It is worth visiting. The people are polite and friendly. The sceneries are beautiful. There are also full of wild lives. The most unforgettable experience for me was the chimpanzees trekking and the gorilla trekking. Although it consumed rather lot of my energy, the sweat and the effort was paid off when I saw these beautiful creatures. I am also happy to see how Uganda people protect the wide lives and how they help the local community via tourist industry.

The lodges I stayed are also wonderful. Most of them are with very helpful and friendly staff. I enjoyed very much the stay in Uganda. I must not forget to mention Tubale Safaris, the travel agency. Their service is very professional and the staff are very responsible. My friends and I were taken good care of during our stay in Uganda. Our needs were addressed in a very responsible and timely manner. Ayub Munowa was our
Read more driver guide. He is amazing. He is very caring, responsible and professional. He was very sensitive to our needs and prepared us well for all the activities. He is very well-organized and plans everything well. We are so blessed to have him with us and thank him for showing us around as well as telling us a lot about the wide lives in Uganda.

I went bananas about Uganda

5 / 5 5 /5
5 / 5 5 / 5 4 / 5 0 / 5
I just spent ten days in Uganda, courtesy of Grassrootz with Patrick as driver/guide. Over 2000km travelled, enough to give an excellent overview of the country. Was met with friendliness everywhere and widespread English-speaking, a benefit to an anglophone monoglot. Lush countryside but the climate was comfortable for a European, one being over 1000m altitude most of the time. Much of the wildlife was quite different from adjacent countries such as Kenya and Tanzania. One could get close up and personal with wildlife, ranging from white rhinos to chimpanzees to banded mongooses. The Murchison Falls in full flow were awe-inspiring. The Kazinga Channel was notable for its plethora of animals and birds. Two of my stays were in tented camps, with private facilities, which provided extra intimacy with the natural environment. But at all stays there was an abundance of wildlife, ranging from butterflies to elephants. My guide/driver Patrick was excellent, invariably courteous and well able
Read more to answer any questions. I was a single traveller but never felt unsafe. I also came to learn the importance of bananas to the local economy!

We had the most incredible time. Our guide and driver was outstanding and so friendly. Uganda is a beautiful country with so much to explore. Murchison Falls and the Nile are breathtaking! Our safari day was beyond anything we expected. The landscape is gorgeous and we saw hundreds of animals. A true bucket list trip!
