Reliable and Good
I used Destination Jungle while travelling to Uganda. I had constant communication with Constatino from booking to journey. I was a single woman travelling by myself and felt comfortable and safe with his guide/driver. I would have liked better accomodations but I dont think at the time they were available. I would absolutely use them. I thought the dollars spent was well worth what they delivered and then some. They can certainly use me as a reference in the US.

Best journey ever!!!
This was the best journey of our lifes. Everything was perfectly planned and operated. From the first day until the last, there was nothing to complain about. Every wish we could came up with, was fulfilled and our driver/ guide was the best. He alsways knew where to find the lions and other special animals and we also always got the best views. He was very friendly and knew every road we took by heart, he also knew a lot about the animals. He took really good care of us!
The time in Uganda and Ruanda was so nice and we are still thinking a lot about the three weeks we spent there.
Thank you very much for this great experience!

Very accommodating, tour manager Christina was fabulous, and our tour driver, Kirenga was perfect.
I researched five different tour groups, and Destination Jungle was by far the most communicative, honest, and professional group I dealt with. The price was very competitive, and they were the most responsive. Our driver, Kirenga, was one of the most informed, intelligent, and accommodating drivers. When there was a "glitch" in the weather which thwarted some plans, he immediately found alternate plans that were amazing- a personal visit to a small village! We will certainly use them again, and are recommending DJ to all our friends and fellow travelers.

The best planning for Gorillas in Rwanda
We planned our tour to see the gorillas in Rwanda and this young lady Christina was ever so helpful. Well, it was a short 3 days trip to the volcanoes and it was the two of us. What really surprised us more and more was the the guide that we were assigned to have for the trip. Kirenga was the best guide we have ever met on any tour.
He was patience, very knowledgeable and ever so friendly. Some of the activities we did were not even on our bucket list. We would really recommend that you plan all your Rwanda trips with Destination Jungle. It has real value for your money. Thank you kirenga and Christina for making our tour much memorable.

Perfect experience and perfect professional at work
We did a Bwindi treck with Destination Jungle to see Gorillas in June. It was one of destinations from our honeymoon.
It was one of the best experiences in our life.
Thanks to Jack, our local guide, because thanks to you our experience of Uganda was perfect
Of course we will advise your company, and your country to all our friends.

Fantastic 3 weeks in Uganda
We decided to travel with Destination Jungle for different reasons. The main ones were the trip schedule they proposed, the excellent quality price & of course the great communication with their contact person Christina.
We were very happy to travel with them. We had a great time in Uganda & would recommend them to anybody going to Uganda.
The locations were fantastic, our guide was excellent & we saw everything we dreamt of & more.
The hightlights of the trip for us were Murchisons NP, Gorillas (obviously) & Kibale forest.
Thanks a lot DJ for guiding us in Uganda

Amazing safari with Destination Jungle! Highly recommended!
My father and I just returned from an epic trip with Destination Jungle. We booked the DJ Uganda Safari 9 Days 8 Nights and chose the optional extension to Lake Mburo for the last day for a total of 10 days and 9 nights. Our trip took us to Murchison Falls, Budongo Forest to see chimpanzees, two parts of Queen Elizabeth National Park, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park to see gorillas and to Lake Mburo. Our guide was Charles and he was exceptional. It was just the two of us and Charles and it was the experience of a lifetime. We saw so many animals and birds in all the parks, including 8 lions, a leopard, a hyena, a jackal, giraffes, zebras, crocodiles, hippos, warthogs, and many others. We loved watching the chimps and the gorillas and it was interesting to compare the two primate species. We were unusually lucky; it was just the two of us and a guide for the gorilla experience. Charles was always looking for ways to improve our experience and we enjoyed getting to know him. He was a very capable driver which is important on some of the roads we traveled on during the safari. Uganda is improving the roads now, but some of them were pretty gnarly so we needed a good driver to navigate them! We also met Christina from DJ, and she was very friendly and helpful. The lodges were beautiful- far nicer than I had expected, and accommodations were lovely. The food, especially the soups served at the beginning of dinner, were some of the best I've had. I highly recommend a visit to Uganda and a safari with Destination Jungle. We will be back and we'll use them again!

Thanks, excellent organisation
Everything worked out very well. I had a good driver, and coming back I still made it to my connecting flight. I was visiting the mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest, and I was very lucky. I could see them very, very well!

well organized and safe trip through Uganda
We booked our family vacation through destination jungle. We were in contact via Mail and phone and Christina was helpfull and a knowledgable local advisor to discuss the comfort and advantages and disadvantages of the various lodges. It was a fantastic trip, we have seen most of the highlights (only the leopard didn't want to show up), were driven safely from Charles our driver who answered all our questions and was always prepared to talk about the country, the life and the animals in Uganda. We will definitly come back.

Professionals at work
We travel the world several times a year with guides. Destination Jungle Safaris has so far been the best company in terms of preparation and implemenation.
Excellent guide James who speaks perfect german (better as much germans :-)) with extensive knowledge and superior about land, people, culture and wildlife. Vehicles in technically perfect condition. The well-being of the guest is very important to this company.
High quality standard also from backoffice (Christina).
This journey will remain unforgotten. We love Uganda.
Thanks to the whole team of Destinations Jungle Safaris
