A good car and great driver is necessary when travelling
We hired for 6 days a car and driver via Grassrootztravel. We had to visit for our work several organisations in different places in Uganda.
The car was comfortable and we had a great driver. He brought us in time to different addresses, even the ones difficult to find. He was always patient and ready to help us and he was also an enthusiastic guide who told us on the road about his land, the people, animals and nature. We did not book a safari trip, but even so, we saw a lot of animals and learned a lot about the country.
Reliable
We arranged privat transport via Grassrootz to visit projectorganisations in different cities in Uganda for our work. Our driver was always in time and was willing to stop wherever we wanted it. He drove save which is very important as the roads are sometimes very tough.
I also booked a gorrila and chimpansee track with Grassrootz. I was happy with the Gorilla track. I asked for the same driver and he put me in a group of people who visited the gorilla family who was most habituated. So I was really happy. For the chimps I was slighly less lucky. I only caught them sitting in the very top end of the tree so it was very hard to have a look at them. So for me this chimps trach was not good value for money, but I understand that this is part of nature!
A most magical experience.
Right from the start when our guide Richard picked us we had the most amazing hoilday and experience. We were told each stop would be the experience of a life time and this was not wrong. Richard helped us navigate and even adapt our itinery to get the best out of our Uganda trip. A better guide we could not hope for, we felt safe and in good hands at all times. The accomidation and travel was spot on. I can't wait to come back again now that I know what this Magical country has to offer. Than you Grassrootz, Anne, Richard and all the team behind the scenes for making this trip special and never to be forgotten. My life time dream of visiting the Gorillas finally came true, but the trip offered so much more.
Grassrootz Adventures was excellent, the trip provided me with an amazing experience!
First of all the itinerary was tailor made as I had very limited time. Sander van Zanten, the founder of the company was very helpful in putting together the programme to really meet my needs and priorities, he was very responsive and straightforward which i found very helpful. This honesty and felxibility was the main reason I chose to travel with Grassrootz.
Once on the ground I had an excellent guide, Moses Kabubi, who was extremely helpful throughout and ensured I used our time to the maximum. He was very helpful in arranging local birdwatching tours, which for example were arranged locally and in esnuring everything ran according to clockwork. He is also very knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw and about the country and its communities, everything we did was done with respecting wildlife and local communities. I feel the overall value for money was very good too, we stayed in good, but not luxury lodges that were environment conscious. I had amazing experiences that were rich and varied, spending time in close contact with gorillas and chimpanzees was unforgettable, but the fantastic wildlife in the different national parks in addition to the ever changing landscape and smiling people made for a wonderful journey.
Exceeding Expectations
Everything was perfect organized and our guide Barnice made just an amazing job and exceeded all our expectations!! thank you so much!!
