We had a wonderful time exploring the beautiful Uganda with our guide Chris. He picked us up from the airport on time and gave us a nice introduction to Uganda. We were with Chris for 6 days and we can't tell where the time went! We did a community walk one of the mornings which was wonderful to explore a local community in Kibale. We then went Chimpanzee trekking and this was a remarkable experience - the rangers were very experienced and looked after us well. We went to Queen Elizabeth national park and this was stunning - Chris pointed out all the animals to us and took us to where the action was at so we got an opportunity to see a huge variety of animals. Our boat safari in Kazhinga Channel was excellent too, we got very close to lots of elephants. We went Gorilla Trekking and this was a fantastic experience - the rangers and guides here were very experienced and knowledgeable, and we got to see gorillas closely after a great trek through the forest. The lodges we stayed at were superb, had wonderful service and lovely welcoming staff. They also had stunning views. Chris looked after us very well, he was an excellent driver and gave us a lot of information about the country and culture and the wildlife. He carefully planned the trip so we got to see the most amount of things while we were here, and took into considerations our needs too. The tour was organised in the best way to support the local communities, and I felt this gave us an authentic welcoming lovely experience. He even managed to get us some jackfruit to try on our last day! He was extremely resourceful and well connected and knew the roads, the community and people extremely well and it was wonderful to have him as our guide. I would highly recommend Native Africa Tours. Thank you for an incredible adventure ????????
