Everything very well organized by Destination Jungle
We were 5 persons. We have organized everything from Italy by mail with the very kind and helpful Constantino (the agency's director). Everything was organized very well indeed. Our guide, Charles, was very good: good drivers, excellent knowledge of fauna, very punctual and polite, he satisfayed us in every request and speaks excellent English. We stayed in very nice hotel/lodge, very clean, friendly staff. The agency is very sensitive to the environment and is launching a campaign for the preservation of the Bugoma forest that we had the pleasure of visiting.

Two amazing weeks in the Pearl of Africa
We spent two wonderful weeks around Uganda thanks to the flawless organization of the tour by Costantino, the director, and his collaborators. We were five nature lovers, so our tour was tailored to see as many animals as possible. The tour operator proved to be very helpful just from the very first steps of the tour organization and they managed to accommodate all our requests. All the accommodation were clean and comfortable and the staff was always friendly. One of our travel mates walks with crutches, but we always found kind people willing to help him in any occasion.
The vehicle, a Toyota Land Cruiser, was clean and in perfect conditions. Fresh bottled water was available during the whole tour and plastic was collected to be recycled (not so usual in Uganda!). A special mention to our guide, Charles, who, in addition to being an excellent driver, is also a great expert of the Uganda fauna. He often spotted mammals and birds that were almost invisible to our eyes.
If you are a vegetarian, do not worry because in every place we had the possibility to eat vegetarian food. We would like also to point out the tour operator attention to the local environment and social issues. We loved to be the first tourists engaged in the Bugoma Forest Conservation Campaign and we do hope that Costantino and his supporters can preserve this precious forest. Not to mention the fact that, during the gorilla trekking in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, we stayed in a lodge run by the local community, so that the money earned from our stay could be invested for the community welfare, in particular for the construction of a water tank for the dry season. We really appreciated the idea to give back something to this beautiful country!

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!

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

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
