Very professional agency, excursion and lodge always top notch. The guide Stuart is a rare gem.

I just came back from an incredible trip to Uganda and… WOW. This country is pure magic! The landscapes look like they came straight out of a documentary, huge lakes, forests where you half expect Tarzan to show up… and most of all, animals everywhere! 🦒🦍🦁 I had one of the most beautiful moments of my life locking eyes with a mountain gorilla – I swear we almost became best friends. Between safaris, I saw elephants, lions, giraffes, hippos… it’s basically a live-action animal kingdom. And the absolute highlight: a huge thank you to our guide Stuart 🙌. Not only does he know Uganda like the back of his hand – every path, every animal, every hidden spot – but he also has a heart of gold. Always smiling, funny, attentive, and eager to share his love for his country, he turned this trip into a truly unique and meaningful experience. Honestly, if you’re looking for a trip that combines adventure, nature, and unforgettable emotions, Uganda should be at the very top of your list. It’s a country that grabs your hand and leaves you with stars in your eyes ✨.

This tour operator makes your trips a dream

I just returned from this magnificent country and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. Uganda is truly a rare gem of Africa, with breathtaking landscapes, dense tropical forests, immense lakes, and, above all, incredible wildlife in the various parks we visited. I was lucky enough to see gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and chimpanze in kibale ,a magical and moving moment. As well as elephants, lions, giraffes, hippos, and even leopards during the safaris. The people are incredibly kind and always ready to share their culture and history. A huge thank you to our guide Stuart, who made this trip even more special with his passion, knowledge, and sense of adventure. 🙏 If you're looking for a unique, authentic, and emotionally charged destination, I highly recommend Uganda. It’s a journey that reconnects you with nature and leaves you with memories for life. 🦍🌿🦒

Fun guide

If you are looking for a fun guide who has an interest in helping you capture that perfect shot then look no further. Stewart is a wonderful guide who has a keen interest in photography and now runs his own safari business. Last August I spent a fun day with Stewart as my guide on Ugandas Lake Bunyoni.
