Fell in love with Uganda
Overall rating
4/5

Yes, we had a great time in Uganda. The whole experience from start to finish was really great. The guide, was great. Nothing was too much trouble and we didn’t have any problems along the way. When we wanted to change our rafting trip, get a refund and book extra accommodation, this was sorted out no worries. He gave us the refund without question and organized our other trip for us It was all very easy. I have never booked travel over the internet before and was a bit worried about what we were going to get. However, the trip exceeded our expectations. Your help in the process was very good as well, our questions were always answered promptly.

Uganda is really called the pearl of Africa. when it comes to weather or climate, it is really better. i had my honey moon in Uganda i went with Dauda as my guide from Augur tours and travel and i had my best honey moon trip and the best experience with Gorillas . need beautiful scenery and wildlife, just go to Kidepo Valley National Park, L. Bunyonyi and Murchison Falls National Park. if you need best tour company, just use Augur tours. visit them on www.augurtours.com or their email info@augurtours.com.

Overall rating
5/5

Our trip was much more than gorilla trekking (which was awesome.) Traveling the roads of Uganda and Rwanda with our guide (Tolbert G), seeing miles of villages, animals and daily life was truly a "spiritual" experience in that life is lived in culture, and US culture is driven much differently. Without American "comforts" and physical abundance, life seems refreshing and honest. I loved it there.

Safari disappointment
Overall rating
4/5

Disappointed about the poor road infrastructure and length of road journeys, but the biggest disappointment was to learn that we could not go off track to get a closer sighting of the lions - that privilege was only for those who paid $150 a day to do so. We have been on numerous safaris in other countries and have never encountered this.

What an Amazing Beautiful and Friendly Country!
Overall rating
5/5

Uganda is an amazingly beautiful country! With nice accommodations, beautiful scenery and great variation. From the savannah landscapes of Elizabeth National Park, to the great lakes with and the jungle of the impenetrable forest of Bwindi.

The wildlife is great, with the Mountain Gorillas but with also many other different kind of species like Chimpanzees, Hippo's, Uganda cobs, Lions and even Leopards. Some more abundant then others of course.
Uganda does also have a very rich birdlife.

I expected lots of rain but even when we were there, in the rainy season, the number of days we had rain were very limited. We had great weather with a lot of nice and sunny days.

The people in Uganda have good English skills and are really very friendly.

Only the roads could use a big upgrade. Prepare to have some bumpy rides!
