Julia Pallant & family, USA

"We returned from Uganda last week after a wonderful holiday. We had high expectations of 'the holiday of a lifetime' but even they were exceeded! The places that we visited were all, in their different ways, fantastic and I certainly wouldn't miss any of them out.
As far as security is concerned we didn't have a moment's concern. We had a 'free' day in Kampala and felt very comfortable walking around the city - no one bothered us at all. When travelling in the rural areas we found people welcoming and curious. We had, as suggested by Great Lakes, a plentiful supply of pencils for the children which went down very well. The other prized posession was an empty water bottle!
As far as the company is concerned I cannot recommend them highly enough. They responded promptly to e-mails when we were planning and did everything as promised when we arrived. The office staff were welcoming and no 'extras' to pay for were slipped in. Our driver, Noel, was very knowledgeable, extremely friendly and competent and anxious that we should see the best of Uganda.
Please pass on our regards to everyone, especially Noel."

Pamela Mateo & family, USA

"We are back in the States and I just wanted to thank you again for all that you did in setting up our safari. We had a wonderful time! The Masindi Hotel had the BEST food and the Paraa Lodge had the BEST view!
Words can't even begin to express what a great driver and guide David was! He was professional and attentive at all times and as flexible as possible. We had a great time with him and missed him greatly when we continued our journey with Sr. Immaculate. It was fun because when we took the kids to whitewater raft in Jinja, there was David again! It was like running into an old friend.
Anyway, I will highly recommend your company in general, and David in particular to anyone who is planning a vacation in Uganda. Thank you!"

Jolanda de Bruin & husband, The Netherlands

"Onze vakantie was in één woord fantastisch van het prille begin tot aan het einde. Paul was ook geweldig vooral omdat je met z'n drietjes bent (zo voelde het voor ons) heb je natuurlijk toch een ander contact met je gids/chauffeur. Het liep gewoon allemaal vanzelf, althans zo hebben wij het ervaren.
Als ik nog eens zou gaan (over tien jaar als we weer wat gespaard hebben) dan zou ik rustig iets boeken met accommodatie vergelijkbaar met Red Chilli en dan een keer Mweya Safari Lodge tussendoor om je even te baden in luxe.
Ik kan niet niet anders zeggen dat alles prima naar wens was. Nog bedankt voor alle hulp!"

"Our holiday was in one word fantastic, from the very beginning till the end. Also Paul was great, especially because you are with only three people (that's how we felt it) you have a different type of contact with the driver/guide. It just runned naturally smoothly, that's how we experienced it.
If I would go again (in 10 years when we have saved some money again) I would definitely book accommodations similar to Red Chilli and sometimes with Mweya Safari Lodge to be surrounded by luxury for a while.
I can not say anything else than that everything was well organized. Thank you for your help!"

Antonio Hurtado & Daniel Garcia, Spain

"Todo salio muy bien y según lo previsto. Con los gorilas muy bien porque no tuvimos que andar demasiado y vimos a muchos, muy de cerca y en una zona bastante soleada. Los chimpancés no tienen nada que envidiar a los gorilas, el entorno es fantástico (parece de la película de Tarzan). Los pudimos ver andando, corriendo, gritando. La verdad es que fue bastante emocionante. Nos gusto mucho Parque Nacional Queen Elizabeth; muy grande y pudimos ver leones y muchos, muchos hipopótamos.
¡El guía Gerald estuvo fantástico en todo momento, siempre puntual, incluso pinchando por los caminos! Dale las gracias por adaptarse tan bien a nuesto nivel de ingles, fue capaz de explicarnos todo lo que le preguntábamos. ¡La verdad es que estuvo estupendo!"

English version:
"Everything went very well and how we had planned. Especially with the gorillas it was great, because we did not have to walk too long and we saw many of them, from a very close distance and in a quite sunny area. The chimpanzees don't have any reason to envy the gorillas; the surrounding was fantastic (it looked like the forest from the movie Tarzan). We could see them walking, running, climbing, shouting. It was truly a thrilling experience. We also liked Queen Elizabeth National Park; a wide area where we saw lions and many, many hippos.
The guide Gerald was fantastic at every moment of the trip, always keeping time and navigating well on the roads! We are thankful for adapting to our level of English so well and he was capable to explain us everything that we asked. He was truly wonderful!"
