Perfect safari to Muchinsons falls with Francis as my guide
5/5

From the outset of booking my safari I experienced a high level of professionalism through the communication with my guide, Francis. I have been on very many safaris, but had never seen a leopard, so my big wish was to see one. And so I did and not just one, but THREE. This was to a large extent due to the commitment by Francis to fulfil my wish. Another great experience was to see a male lion, close up and playing with his two cups. Francis was extremely committed and dedicated to making my safari the best. He was always on time, he was flexible, knowledgeable about the wildlife, a very good driver and a very pleasant company (I was on a solo trip). And he alway tried to get me the best photo possibilities. All in all I had a one of the best - if not THE best safari I ever had in the past 30 years. Thanks a lot to Francis and Nature Connect Safaris.

The Greatest Gorilla safary tour in only 5 days
4/5

Last february I partecipated at the gorilla safari tour, it was been an unic experience, because i had the occasion to know a lot of details of Uganda land. During the movment from on side to another, i met and know a lot of people, i saw the coltivated lands whith every kind of plants and fruits. I had very confortable accomodacions in the lodges and i eat different and good brakfast, lunch and dinner every day. I saw non only the gorilla, but scimpanze and other animals in the Queen Elisabeth National Park. Greeat emotion was been, during the boat trip on the river, to see big groups of elephants drinking.
Unforgettable the avalaibility of our good driver Mr. Moses, who guided and informed us with great professionality.
If someone would like to go in Uganda, I suggest to contact Mr. Francis the boss of the agency for information or preventive.

5 days trip – an absolutly phantastic tour with Francis
5/5

Francis was a great, professional guide, driver and also a good friend during our tour. We had a lot of fun,
got much information and a perfectly organized tour – always in time, with great selected lodges. We felt always safe and comfortable during our trip.
We got in contact via WhatsApp – Francis called back just in time – all arrangements we did via WhatsApp. For the payment we got a link for the Credit Card. All worked perfectly. When we arrived in Entebbe-Francis was there and welcomed us. This tour was absolutely worth the money. My husband loved the car and I the Gorillatour.

Amazing guide!!
5/5

Francis is a fantastic guide, extremely knowledgeable and accommodating! From the moment I got in contact about arranging a trip he was happy to tailor it to what I wanted to see/do and gave recommendations based on his knowledge of what the best options would be! He chose really lovely lodges for accommodation and his Safari pop up jeep was fantastic for wildlife spotting! I had the most wonderful experience throughout! The Gorilla and Chimpanzee trekking could not have been better!

Amazing trip!
5/5

We had an absolutely incredible trip to Uganda with the amazing Francis.

This was a very special family trip as my Mum grew up in Uganda but hadn't been back there for 50 years. Francis effortlessly helped us to create an itinerary which allowed us to combine visits to places from my Mum's childhood along with a more regular safari/sightseeing itinerary. I actually contacted three different tour operators in the planning stage but Francis immediately stood out as the most responsive and helpful out of all of them.

Uganda was truly amazing in every way, but our trip was really enhanced by Francis's help, flexibility and knowledge. We all had so much fun with him and it made it the trip of a lifetime. Thank you so much!

5/5

5-day safari in Murchison Fall with transport, unique and exceptional moment! Fantastic landscape and wildlife!
Francis has a very long experience as a guide and has a great knowledge of animals.
Very well organized safari with a quality service in general. The lodges are very luxurious and the organized outings allowed us to live unforgettable moments with our three daugthers.
We had a great time with Francis and we recommend him without any hesitation.
We wish him every success for the development of his activity.

Francis and Nature Connect Safaris provided a perfect trip of a lifetime for our family!
5/5

From the beginning contact setting up our trip, to drop off at the end of our safari, Francis at Nature Connect Safaris offered top-notch service. Francis responded quickly on WhatsApp and by email with clear communication and great options to personalize our safari any way we wanted. We were able to have a private safari that had everything each of us wanted to do and see. We really packed a lot in our 3-day safari and Francis worked hard the entire time; nonetheless, we never felt rushed or too busy because of Francis’s great planning and flexibility. Francis is an exceptional host making sure we had the best views, sights, and experiences; he went above and beyond for us throughout our trip. Our food and accommodations were great and he takes care of his vehicle to make sure we were comfortable for the whole ride. Uganda is a beautiful country with lovely people and Francis helped us to have a full and wonderful experience getting to know its beauty and people.

Great service
4/5

We're really happy about choosing Nature Connect for our trip. Sorting out the details and booking was a breeze, thanks to Francis who was super quick in getting back to us and making sure we were in the loop. All our hotels were amazing.

Richard, our tour guide, was an absolute rock star. He filled us in on everything we wanted to know about Uganda and its culture, had the lowdown on all the landmarks and wildlife (even the birds!). If you are vegan, don't worry, Richard made sure that each hotel knew ahead of time our requirements. We mainly opted for local dishes, it's so good that you won't want to leave the country!

The only thing that held us back from a full 5 stars was the vehicle itself. We ended up spending quite a chunk of time in there and ran into a few minor hiccups. Still, on the whole, I'd totally give a thumbs up to this company.
