5/5

Our journey to Uganda was an excellent mix of wildlive, landscapes, beautiful hikes, meeting the local people. Grassrootz took care of everything. Because we stayed at basic residences we had some beuatiful meetings with the ugandans.
Thanks to our giude/ driver, we just had to enjoy the majic of Uganda.

A perfect and tailormade trip around Uganda!
5/5

We asked Sander from Grassrootz to plan a trip that would show us the best of Uganda, and give us the opportunity to get an idea of how the Ugandans live. He succeeded perfectly!

What a fantastic way to visit this beautiful country and its people. We stayed in different kinds of hotels and guesthouses, many of which are part of community projects that support schools or help villages in other ways. That way we got a little closer to the people and also had a great stay at every stop we made.

We had a very professional driver / guide (Paul), who knew everything there was to know about the country and about the national parks, and who made us feel relaxed and at home all the time. We saw beautiful villages, landscapes and people, and in the parks we saw elephants, zebras, antilopes, lions, a leopard, giraffs, crocs, hippos, vultures having a meal ... You name it, we saw it. Thanks to Paul's keen and expereanced eye. The trip was well balanced, flexible and relaxed.

We recommend Grassrootz very warmly!

Grassrootz listened carefully to all our wishes and organized a wonderful trip to Western Uganda
5/5

Your trip to Uganda already starts with a good laughter when meeting director Sander van Zanten! He listens carefully and asks the right questions with a good sense of humor. As we wanted to start our trip in Rwanda, Sander offered several ideas what to do and where. We could add additional activities to the suggested programme easily. All you need to know about visa requirements, health certificates, you can ask him and you get the answer in due time.
We had a perfect match with our guide and chauffeur David Otto. Being a family travelling with three young adults (age between 18 and 21), David understands perfectly what the trip makes interesting and a pleasant journey for them. We enjoyed the splendid wildlife in Western Uganda thanks to Davids knowledge and enthousiasm for mother natures beautifull creations. Be prepared to raise early (5.30 am), you are rewarded with a unique experience. A big plus: we had good conversations about serious things in life as well. David is a perfect driver, small problems with our car were solved practically. Combining nature, adventure and a good grasp of culture is what you get! With Grassrootz you stay at community accommodations which we appreciated so much. We wanted to experience how ordinary Ugandans live in their villages and grow their crops in the fields. This expectation was 100 percent fulfilled.
Enjoying Kampala, music and city life was a good completion of our three week trip. Enjoy your day, every day! Grassrootz Uganda helps you make it possible.

Excellent trip: well organized and the best guide
5/5

We had a great time on our holiday organized by Grassrootz Adventures in Uganda and Rwanda. All communication prior to departure was done through Sander who was very flexible in adjusting our travel plan to our liking. Also, we want to recommend our driver, David, was very caring and knowledgeable - we often knew more than the guides during our local visits. We highly recommend this Grassrootz Adventures if you want to have a fun and well organized trip for a good price.

We had an amazing time on the safari.
5/5

I booked car hire with a driver. I emailed with Sander about the possibilities for the trip and he advised me very well. Our driver on the trip was Paul. I told Paul I wanted cheap accommodation and he looked for that for us. He knows his way arround Uganda. And he could tell us a lot about the areas and animals.
