5.0/5Johnson was our guide and driver for our 12 days in Uganda. I had asked for specific activities for all our days. This was my 3rd time in Uganda. He helped plan every day, so it was full and exciting. Our days were planned to the maximum. I wanted to hike, explore the mountain trails, eat local fruits, visit my friends in Kasese and make a trip to the local hospital to visit a small child we support. Our 3 days of safari trips were wonderful. He even accommodated me when I asked if we could share our jeep with children we support. One morning on the way to Queen Elizabeth NP there was a man with his stranded motor bike standing on the side of the road. Johnson stopped and asked if he was OK. He told us it was not safe standing alone on the road near the QENP area. He offered to give the man enough gasoline to get him into town to the station. Many persons might not have stopped. I was very impressed with his willingness to help this person. He even offered to pay a bill for me because I did not have the correct amount. I cannot tell you how much I was impressed with this young man. I plan to see him for my next trip back to Uganda.
