Queen Elizabeth national park
3/5

I came to visit my daughter in Uganda at the end of May and for many years loved to your around on a short tour in Uganda so my daughter planned a surprise trip for me before i moved to the east where we have a project supporting a primary school. The tour was indeed a good surprise, we visited in Queen Elizabeth park and saw many animals including a visit to the Kyambura gorge which is a beautiful place for seeing the chimps. I like the water excursion on the nile till we arrived at the point where we saw clearly the bottom of the waterfall forming part of the river Nile. I enjoyed my trip to Queen Elizabeth and i will not hesitate to suggest this operator Destination Jungle to my friends back home. Oh, Boaz was our guide to show us the animals

A very exciting experience with the mountain gorillas
4/5

I really enjoyed the tour through these two magnificent countries (Uganda & Rwanda) and in line with my personal expectation. Service was very good and the safari was very satisfying although I have not been lucky enough to see lions climb trees. It will be for another time ...

Gorilla safari to visit gorillas was memorable
4/5

At the end of last year, i visited in Uganda and then in Kenya and Rwanda. I like so much to visit East Africa for many years. My trip was organised by Christina a lady who was very positive and friendly. My self and my husband begun our trip on 5th November and booked a flight to Kigali in Rwanda where a nice man received us from the airport and took us to the lodge.
From this moment, we received a good communication about all the expectation of our safari and then we had our dinner and went to sleep. not much for a first day, we were tired from the flight.

The following day begins our safari and we visit many local shops in kigali and also the memorial of the genocide. Then we drive with the guide to Volcanoes park and we loved it here so much. We remained two nights at Villa Gorilla lodge, it is a small owner managed guest house just near to the gorillas. Then in the following days, we went into the forest to visit the gorillas two times. Very nice to keep this momory with us. The together with the guide crossed the border up to Uganda side to visit the community of the pygmies and they made good entertainment for us.

Then we travelled up to Queen Elizabeth park and discovered the tree climbing lions in the trees. It was wonderful. We stayed at a nice eco lodge, in Ishasha, at Ishasha Jungle Lodge. Also in our visit we visited Kibale forest to visit the chimpansee and also the nice birds in this forest. Then we went to Murshicon falls and it was aa good moment on the nile in a nice boat up to see the water fall.

We loved so much our holiday in these countries and later we flew to Kenya to visit many other parks of animals. We love East Africa and these nice people. This company organise our trip very well.

Cleverness and smartness inclouded
4/5

organized by Christina, realized by Abdul ...
was a realy nice trip and sure it is a good teamplay of Christina and Abdul.
Only the locations of the lodges could have been better situated, so that driving time
could be reduced. That is the one and only point that keeps me from rating "excellent".
Abdul organized and managed, even with this little mistake, our group in a perfect way,
so that we could see all the expected animals and would have been at every place in time
to get the best connection or boot. Cleverness and smartness is at Destination Jungle inclouded.

Unforgettable Experience in Uganda!!
5/5

We have just returned from an unforgettable trip to Uganda, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. Everything was perfectly organized by Jungle Destination, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of the journey without any worries.

We would especially like to highlight our Safari Guide Driver, Benjamín S., who truly made a difference throughout the trip. His professionalism, kindness, and warm personality stood out from the very beginning. He was always incredibly approachable and made us feel comfortable at all times.

What impressed us the most was his constant availability and attentiveness. He was always one step ahead of our needs, anticipating what we might require before we even had to ask. Whether it was adapting to our schedule, offering helpful suggestions, or simply making sure we were okay at every moment, Benjamín S. went above and beyond to ensure our experience was smooth and enjoyable.

He is undoubtedly a great asset to Jungle Destination, and a key reason why our trip was so special. We highly recommend this company, and if you are lucky enough to have Benjamín S. as your Safari Guide Driver, your journey will be even more exceptional.

Thank you for everything from The Sisters Africa and Isabel

The trip was very well organized. Our guide and driver, Alonso, was always attentive to our needs and made our stays easy, explaining the food, customs, etc. Our Spanish-speaking guide, Guideon, was incredibly kind and helped us with absolutely everything.

Uganda: an extraordinary journey with Destination Jungle
5/5

We have just returned from a ten-day tour in extraordinary Uganda, and we are still deeply overwhelmed by the emotions we experienced.

We chose this destination to fulfill our dream of seeing the gorillas, but Uganda turned out to be so much more.

We are truly happy that we chose Destination Jungle, which proved to be a top-level tour operator. Costantino, always attentive and present, created an itinerary full of wonderful surprises: beautifully curated lodges, breathtaking safaris and excursions, and an exceptional staff.

A very special thank you goes to our Gerald, who was simply fantastic: always attentive to our needs, patient, discreet, and incredibly kind, as well as an excellent driver and a knowledgeable, professional guide.

Finally, we cannot fail to mention your Bugoma Forest conservation project, which deeply touched us. We sincerely wish you the very best outcome — keep up the great work!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, you were truly unique.

Uganda & Rwanda: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Journey
5/5

One of the most emotional and unforgettable journeys of our lives.
The entire route, from Entebbe to Kigali, crossing breathtaking national parks, was a true roller coaster of emotions. Safari drives, trekking, nature walks, boat trips and cultural encounters — every single day brought a new surprise, something new to discover. Just when you think you’ve seen it all, something else comes along and leaves you speechless.

What truly made this journey exceptional, however, was Osman, our guide, who accompanied us from day one until today, as we prepare to leave Africa. It is only right to highlight his many qualities: incredibly knowledgeable, always available, kind, friendly and, above all, deeply passionate about his work, nature and his country. If you have the chance to choose your guide, ask for him. He went above and beyond to show us as much wildlife as possible — we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five — and to make our journey as comfortable and enriching as possible. We arrived with a guide and we leave with a friend.

Congratulations to the Destination Jungle team for such a perfectly crafted itinerary.
An experience we will carry with us forever.
