Excellent BirdingTour with Paul Kaggwa through Entebbe, Mabamba, Masindi and Murhison Falls
Paul Kaggwa provided birding and driving support for 10 days in Uganda. His communication and payment process gave confidence before we left. He looked after both of us well throughout the trip. We found 292 species in 11 days. His knowledge and the respect from all the local guides and hotels and reserves, we went to, demonstrates that he has great credibility in Uganda as a Birding Tour Guide. I would not hesitate to recommend him and perhaps go to South West Uganda next time.

Gorilla and Golden Monkey tracking in Rwanda.
I had a wonderful time traveling with Terrain Safaris in Rwanda. The guide was very helpful and helped me meet with locals that had the same interests as me. Very professionally organized and I am definitely going to be using them on later occasions.

Terrain Safaris, East Africa's wildlife experts.
I recently spent three weeks with Paul Kaggwa from Terrain Safaris and I would rate him as East Africa's No. 1. Wildlife guide. I've searched for birds and animals in over twenty African countries, as well as hiring guides in many of those countries. Most guides talk themselves up and will tell you they're experts and know it all but when you get out in the field with them and start looking for the rarer species, they have no idea.
Paul has memorized the calls over 900 East African bird species and knows where to find them all. He knows his mammals and reptiles and is a genuinely nice guy that has an obvious passion for African wildlife. If you're interested in gaining a more complete picture of Kenyan, Tanzanian, Rwandan and Ugandan wildlife, then I highly recommend Paul Kaggwa from Terrain Safaris, Uganda.

Great 7 days Safari in Uganda!!
We have made the safari for 7 days.
7 woman at the age between 15 to 42. Some told us it were to dangerous to travel only as woman, but we felt all the time very save!
The trip was well organized by Paul and it was very cheap.
Our tour has startet by Kampala, goes to Murchison Falls NP, Kibale NP with chimpanzee tracking, Queen Elizabeth NP and ends by Lake Mburo.
Our tour guide Edward was very friendly and likable. He told us a lot about the country, the traditions and the .
We have seen a lot of lions, elephants, buffaloes, hippos, zebras, chimpanzees and many others.....
The landscape was amazing and we were very surprised to saw the difference between the parks, for example the landscape or the animals.
The native people are all warmheating, friendly and we felt all the time welcomed and save.
Uganda is amazing and you can see a lot of great things and make beautiful experiences.
The tourism is low, so you can enjoy your visit without a lot of tourist, like in other countries.
Thank you very much to Terrain Safaris to show us this amazing country!

Safety and attention to detail in the organisation plus brilliant bird and animal spotting skills.
2015 was the fourth year we had booked with Terrain Safaris to take us on safari. The tours included Queen Elizabeth National Park, Murchison Falls National Park and Semuliki National Park as well as some other smaller parks and a very memorable visit to the Mabamba Swamp. At all times we have had absolute confidence in the tour leaders, Paul and Brian, to deliver a very rewarding holiday, safely organised and always going to great lengths to make sure we are comfortably accommodated even in the remotest places. Their animal and bird spotting skills are legendary, we would have missed so much without them. For instance we saw leopard in both Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls, notoriously difficult to spot and found the elusive Shoebill Stork in Mabamba. We recommended Terrain to a friend who travelled to Uganda earlier this year and we will definitely be contacting Terrain Safaris when we next visit hopefully in 2018.

Incredible trip to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park
Terrain Safaris were highly recommended to me and they lived up to expectation. I was travelling on my own and looking for a bespoke trip from Kampala to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park on New Years Day. All of the arrangements were made (at very short notice) by Terrain Safari, transport, hotels, permit and it turned out to be one of the most amazing trips I have ever taken. I was picked up from my hotel on time and we made our way across Uganda, stopping of at great places to eat and bird watch. Paul Kaggwa Kibirango, who was the guide, was great fun company on what was a very long drive and very knowledgeable on ornithology. The visit to see the gorillas was really well arranged, we arrived early with all the necessary paperwork and I got to spend the maximum amount of time with a wonderful family of gorillas. Trip of a lifetime - I really recommend travelling with this company.

7 excellent days of individual safari!
I had the pleasure of spending 7 days on an individual safari with Paul, the head of Terrain Safaris.
We covered Queen Elizabeth Park, chimp & gorilla tracking and Lake Bunyonyi.
Paul was extremely kind and patient and always did his best to give me a perfect experience in Uganda. I would recommend him to anyone.
Great and safe !
We made a Gorilla and Chimp Trekking in Uganda and Rwanda. It was incredible to see the Gorillas!Paul was a very nice driver with a big knowledge about the animals! It was a really great Tour. Unforgettable! Thank you Paul! Hope we see us again!
