Linda and David Morgan, UK
“We would be delighted
to provide you with information about our holiday. We have
nothing but praise for Great Lakes Safaris, both for their
helpfulness throughout and their flexibility in planning our
itinerary.
We had a rather unusual plan for our holiday, in that, as
well as touring the game parks, we wished to see and meet
Ugandans on the ground as much as possible, and also we wished
to end our holiday by being taken to Gulu, where our daughter
is working as an NGO. Great Lakes responded to this by including
a 2-day visit to a farm in the far south-west, near the Tanzanian
and Rwandan borders, and by agreeing to drop us off in Gulu,
rather than returning us to Kampala.
We visited Lake Mburo,
Queen Elizabth, Kibale and Murchison Falls National Parks,
in addition to Nshenyi village referred to above. All this
was achieved in an 11-day itinerary, at a very reasonable
cost. Our driver (Edward) was fantastic. He was not only one
of the best drivers I've ever come across either inside or
outside of Uganda, but he was also very friendly, and most
knowledgeable about all the wildlife, including the rich variety
of birds we saw. He also had phenomenal eyesight; even when
the road he was negotiating was particularly pitted and rough,
he still managed to catch sight of birds and game a long way
of, which we would have missed.
Altogether a most positive,
enjoyable and educational trip. I'd recommend anyone to go;
Uganda is a truly beautiful country. We look forward to returning.”

Jo-Anne Johson (filming crew Africa Within), South Africa
"Thank you so much
for a great trip. I had so many misconceptions about Uganda
but like Renier said 'to truly know Africa one must move away
from the city and find out who the real people of a country
are'. And with the help of Africa Within, I am glad I got
the opportunity to do so. It was an experience I will never
forget. I learned that the quality of ones life out ways the
quantity of ones wealth, and the beauty that surrounds them
makes the people of Uganda so much more beautiful. Thank you
Uganda and God bless!"

Arent and Helma Noordink, The Netherlands
"We are back from
our trip to Uganda and we just wanted to let you know that
our 3-days safari to Queen Elizabeth National Park was a fantastic
experience. We would like to thank Great Lakes Safaris for
the way everything was arranged; our driver/guide Suleyman
was a very nice person, calm and a good driver (which is rare
in Uganda!). He had extensive knowledge and we were happy
to have him as our guide during the three days.
We will certainly recommend your company to other people interested
in travelling to Uganda. Again, thank you very much!"

"The Dunns have all
arrived safely back in the UK, having much enjoyed our holiday
with your company. Thank you so much for all that you did
for us. We thought Gerald was fantastic! Please extend our
thanks to him as well!"

Helmi and Klaus Heinschke, Germany
“Now we are already
more than three weeks back at home. Our films have been developed,
so we’ve got a lot of nice pictures to help us to keep
this interesting and impressive journey in our memory.
We both were very content
with the way our safari has been carried out. Our driver Beki
was always in time, his driving was good and adapted to the
conditions. We never came into a dangerous situation. Despite
the bad condition of some the roads and repeatedly long hours
of traveling, we never felt exhausted.
Concerning the accomodation,
we had opted for the simpler one. Altogether we have no complaints.
Everywhere it was clean, and the sanitary facilities were
correct, too. On other journeys we had sometimes experienced
simpler rooms, therefore we were pleasantly surprised of the
facilities and the condition of the accomodations. From our
point of view, the „Rwenzori View Guest House“
in Fort Portal was the best accommodation. Also, the„Buhoma
Community Bandas“ was tiled-floor in the lavatory and
showers (with warm water) were far better than we could expect.
The recovery period at
Lake Bunyonyi was somewhat short. We arrived there in the
afternoon. We had enough time to do the canoeing on the lake.
But since we had to leave already in the next morning, we
would suggest to stay there an additional day/night.
We hope that we'll be
able to visit Uganda again, perhaps in 4 or 5 years. In any
case we will contact you and your company in due time when
this dream might become real. Thank you very much for the
beautiful safari tour through Uganda."
