We can't lie about it. Our safari was memorable
My wife and I visited Uganda for 13 days and planed our trip with Destination jungle safaris. We received only expectation as we expected and have no hesitation to recommend it to you if you have plans to visit Uganda. We loved it and plan to visit again in the future. Boaz and Christina thank you for a wonderful trip!

Gorilla safari to visit gorillas was memorable
At the end of last year, i visited in Uganda and then in Kenya and Rwanda. I like so much to visit East Africa for many years. My trip was organised by Christina a lady who was very positive and friendly. My self and my husband begun our trip on 5th November and booked a flight to Kigali in Rwanda where a nice man received us from the airport and took us to the lodge.
From this moment, we received a good communication about all the expectation of our safari and then we had our dinner and went to sleep. not much for a first day, we were tired from the flight.
The following day begins our safari and we visit many local shops in kigali and also the memorial of the genocide. Then we drive with the guide to Volcanoes park and we loved it here so much. We remained two nights at Villa Gorilla lodge, it is a small owner managed guest house just near to the gorillas. Then in the following days, we went into the forest to visit the gorillas two times. Very nice to keep this momory with us. The together with the guide crossed the border up to Uganda side to visit the community of the pygmies and they made good entertainment for us.
Then we travelled up to Queen Elizabeth park and discovered the tree climbing lions in the trees. It was wonderful. We stayed at a nice eco lodge, in Ishasha, at Ishasha Jungle Lodge. Also in our visit we visited Kibale forest to visit the chimpansee and also the nice birds in this forest. Then we went to Murshicon falls and it was aa good moment on the nile in a nice boat up to see the water fall.
We loved so much our holiday in these countries and later we flew to Kenya to visit many other parks of animals. We love East Africa and these nice people. This company organise our trip very well.

The Nile adventure safari with Destination Jungle Safaris
We begin our trip plans to visit Uganda in July last year and having made contact with various companies to provide us with itineraries and quotes, we found this company Destination Jungle more desirable for our travels.
The lady who was in contact with us, Christina was very informative, very friendly and also very professional with all our questions about our concerns. The trip was well organised and the guide we were assigned was perfect. Patrick was always very concerned with our comfort and he is a careful driver. So many animals he showed to us and also surprised us with interesting stories about the culture in Uganda. We loved our trip and have no complaints. We don't hesitate to recommend it

Cleverness and smartness inclouded
organized by Christina, realized by Abdul ...
was a realy nice trip and sure it is a good teamplay of Christina and Abdul.
Only the locations of the lodges could have been better situated, so that driving time
could be reduced. That is the one and only point that keeps me from rating "excellent".
Abdul organized and managed, even with this little mistake, our group in a perfect way,
so that we could see all the expected animals and would have been at every place in time
to get the best connection or boot. Cleverness and smartness is at Destination Jungle inclouded.

Great time in the Ruwenzori's with Destination Jungle
Together with two friends I did a 9 day trekking and the ascend of Mt Margaritha and Mt Speke organised by Destination Jungle. We had a great time. On the airport there was a pick up, we had a good hotel in Entebbe, a perfect drive to the Ruwenzori, the trekking was good organised (only the food could have been al little bit better) and after the trekking Destination Jungle had a big suprise for us. We stayed our last night in a very nice resort near the crater lakes. A big treat after spending nine days in the mountains. I checked other touristorganisations for trekking in the Ruwenzori's and Destination Jungle gives us the best price and the quality was high.

Don't Worry, Be Happy.
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!

Personalized service catering to my needs was great.
All the arrangements were made by Destination Jungle, which is based in Kampala. They laid on transport - a 4x4 private hire – arranged for one of the best guides to accompany me and even asked about my food preferences. Making the arrangements was a piece of cake: I just dropped in at the office to make the payment after arriving in Kampala. And I got personalized service, which always makes a huge difference.

Uganda and Rwanda Experience
I recently had the opportunity to spend 20 days in Uganda and Rwanda and my chosen operator was Destination Jungle. Months of planning my trip involved research but also frequent correspondence with Christina Olah from Destination Jungle. Christina provided me with excellent service during the months leading up to my dream holiday. Every detail was covered in a professional yet friendly manner.
Upon arrival at the airport in Entebbe, I was met and transferred to my accommodation and was excited to meet with Christina that evening. She took the trouble to travel from Kampala after work to meet with me. I was grateful for this kind gesture.
I was assigned a Driver/Guide named Kasule Hussein who I soon realized was not only knowledgeable about all aspects of the two countries, but was also very personable.
Throughout my travels, Kasule ensured that I was safe and well looked after at all times.
All details of the itinerary had been planned to perfection by Christina and everything fell into place as it should have.
I was very sad to farewell Kasule at the end of my journey in Kigale as we had got along very well.
I would book again with Destination Jungle without hesitation and am happy to recommend DE to any future travellers.
I had the holiday of a lifetime.

Amazing company to travel in Uganda and Rwanda
What an amazing company. The family of 4 was for 15 days in Uganda and Rwanda. The company made our life so comfortable and safe, cant say enough about how well we were all taken care of and the knowledge of the area we were traveled was unbelievable. The company turned out to be the best and honest. We can not explain with words, how we enjoyed this trip.
There have not probably many people known the Uganda and Rwanda very well except for those who like adventures. If you wish to have life time memory, go to see mountings gorillas and golden monkey, and use the best company in Uganda - Destination Jungle.
safari to see wild animals was up to our expectations
had a very comprehensive tour of the different reserves. Lodging was very good and our driver/guide was extremely dedicated to make our tour comfortable and as enjoyable as possible.
We recommend Destination Jungle as a very efficient travel agency for one who whishes to visit Uganda
