Incredibly attentive
5/5

I did the Murchison / Kidepo Tour and the Chimp Habituation Tour, and ultimately, I had a great experience. Albert was my tour guide, and he was incredibly attentive when it came to answering my questions and ensuring the trip was to my expectations. He really did go above and beyond to make it a fantastic adventure, and also to tailor it to my interests (I'm always keen to try local foods, and Albert made a point of taking me to decent local spots).

Even when nature or circumstance worked against us, Albert looked for solutions:

Example 1: when the weather threw a wrench into the Kidepo program, making it difficult to do several of the activities, Albert worked with me to find equivalent activities using the time available. Though there was a very small increase in cost related to one of the activities, Albert generously split the cost with me.

Example 2: we just missed the cut-off for the 1st night game drive at Murchison Falls due to an unexpected road closure, so Albert quickly got on the phone and set it up for the following night without issue.

We used two different vehicles for the two different tours and both vehicles were clean and well-maintained. The accommodation lined up was perfect (room, food, staff all first class). All the details were planned in advanced, and Albert was flexible when needed. Albert's advice regarding local customs (including tipping) was very useful. Albert was also very informative when it came to learning about Uganda and its traditions, laws, wildlife and culture, which made for great entertainment.

There weren't really any negatives. In Kidepo, we didn't spot any big cats, but the landscape and other wildlife still made it a very enjoyable experience. I think the only activity I would have passed on, in hindsight, is the boat at Murchison Falls (I think another game drive would have better suited me), BUT if you're keen to see hippos and Nile crocs then it shouldn't be missed (and there were plenty of people on the boat that were having a blast).

Conclusion, I highly recommend Alboyd Tours and Travel and won't hesitate to use them again on my next Ugandan adventure.

Amazing
5/5

The booking went smoothly and our questions, desires and queries were answered in a timely manner via email. When the time of the trip approached, the faster communication was via whatsapp. The driver / guide was amazing, the trip went really well and we explored the country. Above all, a great experience.
