14 Day Pearl of Africa Uganda Classic Wildlife Safari

Thank you Bambooecotours for a delightful 14 day tour through the beautiful country of UgandaZ. We were able to see the big, five elephants, giraffes, water, buffalo gorillas, chimpanzees elephants, zebras lions. It was spectacular.. Fred was our guide and was able to provide us with unique experiences for viewing all the different animals. He’s a pro at finding the right spots for the best photography. If you are interested in going on a safari but you’re intimidated by traveling to Kenya or Tanzania check out Uganda it is a beautiful country Bambooecotours really provide you with an immersion into the country. The people its culture it’s just a wonderful experience we traveled by jeep we stayed in very high-end safari lodges all over the country side people were wonderful the accommodations were excellent it was a wonderful tour. Thank you Fred and Addison for providing us with the trip of a lifetime.

I have always wanted to trek to see the gorillas, and Bamboo Ecotours made that dream possible. I had looked at several companies, but Edison, the owner, was the only person who responded quickly and was able to answer all of my questions. He was even more amazing when my friend and I missed the connecting flight to Entebbe and arrived a day late. Edison was able to change all of the accommodations by a day. My only regret is that I didn't realize that I could have customized the tour a bit more. I would recommend spending an extra day at Lake Bunyonyi, as we didn't have time to explore the lake. Plus, it would have been nice to have a day to relax a bit. We had upgraded to the moderate accommodations which were wonderful, many with fantastic views. We were provided way too much food though, and I noticed that they catered for vegetarians. Fred, our driver, was great and was willing to accommodate whatever we needed. The appropriate Covid testing was arranged for our trip home, which was much appreciated. As for Uganda...what a fantastic country! I had no idea that it would be so beautiful and have so much to offer. I was amazed at the number of animals and birds that we saw, and I was pleased that the insects seemed to be at a minimum. I would love to go back and see some of the museums and visit some of the birding areas. If and when I do, it will be with Bamboo Ecotours!

First I have to say thank you to Edison for arranging this tour, because I am a solo traveler in East Africa and I was looking for a tour, where I can take part in a group. Edison made it possible, so we were a group of two and could share the costs.
The tour was well organized and had a good varied program.
We had a very good driver called Herbert. He is a patient and very friendly person. He drove savely and was very good in seeing animals in the parks.
Our guide was Joseph. A very nice man and good in entertaining. He gave us regularly detailed information about the tour and information about the nature and country. It was a budget tour. The accommodations were very different. Some were excellent (like the Queen Elizabeth Bush lodge), others were disappointing (like the golden monkey guesthouse).
Thanks a lot to my companion Joana - we spent a great time together!

I highly recommend this tour!
