An increadible tour with explanation of every detail by a great guide, which we can highly recommend
The tour was incredible. Our guide Klaus (local name Twaha) was that well prepared, that we never had any problems or missunderstandings. He picked us with a sign at the airport and drove / convoyed us the whold trip until he brought us back to the airport after 7 days. Every single guesthouse / lodge was realy nice and we has very good breakfast / lunch / dinner. The highlight was for sure that he did everything for us to see as many animals as possible. Some rides in the early morning / some during the day and also some night rides. I never thought that we can come so close the all of these animal. Everytime he explained very good abd he was very helpful. Even during the rides he did everything for us, e g picking some fruits at the street market / buying local lim cards / showing us the local nightlife in Kampala and the streetmarkets. And important was, that we never felt afraid. We got that nice photos and videos of all animals and we can definitely recommend the ride with a 5 star vote. We became good friends and i m sure we will still keep in contact with Klaus :) Thanks for that incredible experience :)

Wild Jungle Safaris - Amazing Adventure
What an amazing adventure! We knew we wanted to travel to Uganda for gorilla trekking, so we started the great search for a tour company in the spring of 2023. We knew permits were limited and we needed to book at least a year in advance. We looked at some of the typical tours (Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth Park, Kibale (chimp trekking) and Bwindi (gorilla trekking). We decided we wanted a more personalized tour for ourselves. We found Wild Jungle on Safari Bookings after contacting a few different highly rated vendors. We immediately connected with Tina and worked with her to customize the trip the way we wanted. She was very patient, listened to our requests, and made sure she gave us the best options possible.
We provided a deposit, and our tour was booked. Along the way, Tina accepted a position with another company, and our booking was reassigned to Twaha, the owner. Of course we were concerned when Tina departed, but Twaha stepped right in and reassured any concerns we had.
Twaha has several guides he uses for tours. We were originally assigned to one of them, but his group extended their stay, and Twaha became our guide himself. Twaha has been doing this for many years, and he has the knowledge and connections to ensure a memorable trip. Everywhere we went, he made sure we arrived early and had the best guides. He meshed quite well with our “type A” personality. For future travelers reading this, let me assure you that Twaha is genuine and I don’t hesitate to recommend him.

Unforgettable Adventure!
I’m a huge fun of nature and every time I travel I make sure that’s part of my itinerary. I’m so glad Wild Jungle trails had all I wanted. I did a 3-day Murchison falls safari and it exceeded my expectations. The package comes with the hike to the falls which was so magnificent. Another thing I loved was the fact that they offer many opportunities to view a variety of wildlife. I’ve gotta say this was such an awesome tour. Thank you @wildjungletrails!

Great safari - great guide!
The whole trip was amazing and our guide Oscar was top notch. He took us around the park spotting endless antelopes, giraffes and elephants. We saw a leopard and a lion and many hippos. The birds that we saw were beautiful as well. We saw three crested cranes. The highlight of the trip was the hike to Murchison Falls. We saw a rainbow burst out of the water as the sun rose. The whole trip was just amazing. We absolutely loved Oscar. He shared his knowledge of the various animals and history of the area. I highly recommend using this tour company.

Absolutely reliable, competent and always looking for the best experience for his guests
For wonderful 9 days I was on safari in Uganda with Wild Jungle Trails and coordinator Twaha. An individual program was put together for me according to my wishes. QENP and Ishasha, Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Lake Bunyonyi and Mburo National Park.
I am amazed by the wonderful landscapes and magnificent animals of Uganda. Twaha made it possible for me to see the big 5 and many other animals - we were often the only vehicle there!
The special thing about Wild Jungle Trails and tour operator Twaha is that as a guest I was shown and able to do so much more in addition to the announced "program". I look back very fondly on our trip to the tea fields and to the Ankole cattles, the visit to a Ugandan village cinema and the wonderful hike around a lonely crater lake.
I will never forget our spontaneous trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo and the happy meeting with the market women there or the last day of our trip, actually only the return trip was supposed to be on the agenda. But Twaha organized something very special for me: I hiked with ranger Rebecca (such a great woman) for 2 1/2 hours in the Mburo National Park with the giraffes and zebras. Just beautiful.
I was very impressed with the choice of accommodation. In addition to the beautiful lodges, I also spent two nights in the lovely guest house of a project for women in the Bwinde region, Ride 4 woman. Here I was able to purchase beautiful, authentic handmade fabric Ugandan gifts for my family and friends at home. I was even able to visit the Batwa Pygmy Women and it gave me great pleasure.
For me as a woman traveling alone, Twaha's reserved nature and always forward planning was a very pleasant experience. He made sure I was well equipped and always made sure I had the best spot, whether on the boat trip or visiting the wonderful gorillas. Humor was never neglected on this trip.
I want to come back with friends and one thing is for sure, Wild Jungle Trails and Twaha will host our trip.

Our tour guide was very educative and very engaging with all of us.
To use the phrase "once in a life time kind of experience" would be an understatement. This was beyond it! We traveled to the Murchison falls, our tour guide called this a Murchison falls tours. We visited the national park saw a number of wild animals and visited the waters as well, the falls itself.
Being Ugandan I thought it wound not be that exciting, but it was an amazing experience , I loved every bit of it ,I could not stop talking about it. Wild Jungle trails suggested this for us and it could not have been any better. I wish everyone gets to have this experience at list once in their lifetime there is nothing quite like it.
I am forever grateful for the experience, it felt like we were one with nature, it was a time to relax and appreciate the beauty this world has to offer.

He was very good and informative about the place.
Our tour to murchsion falls was lovely and the tour guide was very friendly and informative. We got to see all the big 4’s in the murchsion falls national park. The timing was so good in that we didn’t find any handles. Thank you wild jungle trails. Looking forward to working with you more…..

Fishing and Safari! Not only are the land animals amazing, don't forget about the water :) Twaha was our guide on land and he always delivers the best experience. His knowledge of the animals and where to find them in the park is second to none. It amazes me how many people at the lodge say they didn't see much , when my group ALWAY sees the best . (my 3rd trip with Twaha) This time Twaha organized a one day fishing excursion for me on the Nile to seek out the elusive Nile perch....and did he deliver. We started with a well equipped boat and made our way up to the Falls, stopping to catch small tilapia to use for bait...after we had our live well full we made our way closer to the Falls. After a short hike over a bluff, my guide Edwin rigged up the tilapia and we casted our bait into the turbulent water of the Nile....within a 10-15 minutes time span , we hooked up on a 20+ kg Nile Perch....the fight was amazing! truly a great experience and i recommend it to all adventurous fisherman. Word of advice, wear pants and long sleeves as the flies are aggressive and use bug spray ....you are in the their world !

Twaha ALWAYS ensures everyone has the best experience, sees amazing sights, and has a wonderful trip
I have been taking people on trips to Uganda for years and I ALWAYS use Twaha and his company. They are extremely trustworthy, knowledgeable, professional, kind, and they give us unforgettable experiences at Murchison Falls National Park. As long as this company is around, we won’t choose anyone else for safaris!
