Don't Worry, Be Happy.
5/5

Destination Jungle could easily adopt the title of the song, "Don't Worry, Be Happy" as their slogan. I originally contacted Destination Jungle because they offered the best rates for the trip I wanted. All through the planning process, my agent, Christina, happily answered all my questions (and there were quite a few) and made suggestions for the optimal experience in my travel to Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania. When I arrived at my first destination, Christina was there to introduce herself and brief me on the itinerary. She and my guides were accommodating, knowledgeable, friendly, and made me feel welcome and at ease in my travel as a single woman in unfamiliar territory. I couldn't ask for more. Traveling with Destination Jungle was a wonderful experience, and I was absolutely "happy", with "no worry". Thanks, Destination Travel!

Fantastic experience sitting with the gorillas!
5/5

Two friends and I traveled to Volcanoes National Park with Destination Jungle. Our guide Kirenga was so knowledgeable about Rwandan history that he gave us insightful context throughout our visit. The agency organized our visas for golden monkey and gorilla visitations. We stayed at the beautiful and comfortable Mountain Gorilla view Lodge. What a nice place to come home to after spending the morning in the wet and muddy jungle!

New year in Uganda
5/5

From the beginning of the preparing of this trip I had not problems with this agency and its tour consultant Christina. Christina is very communicated, clever, flexible and very easy women. We were 7 Russian tourists. We traveled from 29th of December to 9th of January 2014. Christina met us at airport. We had safari in Elizabeth National Park, Murchison NP. We saw different African animals so like hippopotamus, different monkeys, birds, elephants, giraffes, antelopes, wart hogs, lions, crocodiles and so on. We celebrated New Years day in the lake Nkuruba. But only one thing was not ok: our driver did not celebrate it with us. We were very sad. We didn't invite him. But we didn't know he waited for our invite. So, note: please, if you want to invite your driver to celebrate something, say it to him). In Elgon NP we made tracking to Wagagai pick (4321 m). Then we had rafting on the White Nile. Everywhere we were with our professional driver. They kindly showed us their country: their life and people. They kindly explained us every thing we did not understand. Our trip was very bright and memorable. Thank you so much Christina and Destination Jungle for making this trip wonderful for us

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.
