Amazing Safari that Exceeded my Expectations
5/5

Going on a Safari was the only thing on my bucket list. Found Ecovic Tours & Travel Uganda online and contacted them because of their excellent ratings and prompt answers.

Vincent did a great job in making suggestions and formulating our itinerary. He helped with the actual details of our trip in Uganda. Prompt answers to our many questions. Initiated communication a number of times.

Actually safari was unbelievable. From guides, to camps , to locations, to accommodations and food were all 5 star. Each of the 3 camps we stayed at were very different in terms of environments and terrain. Gave us a broad experience of Uganda and her animals , vegetation, water and terrain.

And Murchison Falls, at the beginning, took our breath away. But a great 9 days and would not hesitate to use Ecovic Tours & Travel Uganda again. Highly recommended

Absolutely reliable, competent and always looking for the best experience for his guests
5/5

The whole trip was amazing and our guide Justine 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 Justine. He shared his knowledge of the various animals and history of the area. I highly recommend using this tour company.

Amazing 8 days in Uganda!!!

We decided for Ecovic Tour , because of easy and quick communication with Vincent. He provided us with all information and answered fast all our questions.
Our guide Hussein made and excellent job und was very friendly. He asked about our expectations and wisches and planed every day accordingly. Every day was different und full of great experiences and adventures, yet not too tiring. Whether it was in the jungle, savannah , village ot city ,we felt safe at all times. The meals took place in restaurants or lodges und there were always more possibilities to choose from. Local and international. The food was very tasty and we had no health problems.
All in all, we had a great time in Uganda.

We would like to thank Ecovic Tours and recommend it to everyone ,who is planning a trip to this beautifull country!

Best 7 Day experience in Uganda
5/5

We booked a 7 day, Gorilla Trekking, Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth National Park, plus more. with Ecovic and it completely exceeded our expectations. From the minute we started planning this trip, Vincent was incredible with prompt communication and ensuring we were going to accomplish everything we wanted during our 7 days. The prices were very fair and what we received exceeded our expectations. Our driver Hussein was incredible, he was so knowledgable and was not going to give up until we found a lion during our game drives.

The accommodations we stayed in were exceptional, especially for budget accommodation. Staying on Lake Bunyonyi was exceptional and our favourite night. Swimming at sundown and staying in the cabin on the island was stunning and I will for sure be returning. The Bush Lodge in Queen Elizabeth was also stunning and eating outside with the hippos at night was a once in a lifetime experience. All the food was delicious and the staff at all accommodations were so kind and helpful. All of the game drives and boat cruises were amazing, with Hussein guiding us through the National Parks and explaining each animal, bird, plant etc. We saw all the major animals and we have not a single complaint.

Overall Ecovic Tours and the staff was amazing. I would recommend their services to anyone visiting Uganda with no doubt. It was the best week we have ever had and it went so smoothly. If you are looking for the ultimate experience in Uganda you can't go wrong with Ecovic!
We will be returning!

Memorable and Unique Experience
5/5

We had a unique trip through stunning Uganda with Ecovic Tours! They really made our experience perfect. They customized everything to exactly what we wanted and made sure we didn't have to worry about anything.

We highly recommend them to anyone who wants to not only have a great experience but also to learn so many things since their insights and knowledge about Uganda were invaluable and allowed us to have authentic experience, which did not only focus on impressive wildlife watching but also on people and local culture.

We had a great time together, we truly liked travelling with them! Everything went smoothly throughout the trip and we always felt extremely safe and well taken care of.

Vincent, the trip coordinator is very professional, reliable and sociable as well. Furthermore he is always ready to do everything needed to make you feel comfortable and to fully enjoy the adventure.

Besides that we loved the aspect of sustainable travelling and the companies efforts such as providing us with disposable plastic free water bottles and planting trees to compensate effects of climate change.

We will definitely travel with Ecovic Tours again when we return to Uganda!

Professional, Friendly, and Highly Experienced
5/5

We booked a 10 day private safari with Ecovic Tours and would highly recommend them! Both the tour consultant, Vincent, and our tour guide, Samuel, were professional and made sure our trip was comfortable and memorable. We visited Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth, Bwindi Impenetrable, Lake Mburo National Park which was quite a bit of driving but enjoyable getting to see the diverse landscape of Uganda. We really enjoyed eating our meals with our tour guide where we could plan out the day ahead and get to know them personally. Our guide recommended we get to Murchison Falls - Tangi gate right when it opens which meant a very early wake up for us. We listened to their advice, which resulted in us seeing big five on our first day on safari which was incredibly lucky!

Excellent and Knowledgeable Team
5/5

Ecovic Tours was a great choice for me and my family. We found the right people, package and tours all in one. Vincent was great from the get go. Never felt pressured into anything, process of selection of trip, dates and tour was easy and well organized. Very flexible with your requests. Our tour guide Issaa was great, patient and knowledgeable. Overall our experience with this team for our Uganda 9 days tour was excellent. Prompt and clear communication, prompt payment and other follow-ups. They clarify all your concerns. Great friendly people. Nice accommodations and food during our travel. Never rushed us with anything and gave us ample time to immerse ourselves on this beautiful nature trip and people. I would strongly recommend this tours for my friends and family. Obviously one would have to do their part as well (book the tour promptly, make payments, get the country visa on time, vaccinate, carry medicine, travel on time, wake up early to watch the wildlife when they are active etc). Rest is well taken care and handled by the staff.

Awesome experience! Even for a solo traveller!
5/5

I booked a last minute trip on Thursday and flew out on Friday morning. Ecovic Tours was able to quickly respond to my requirements via email and whatsapp and customized my trip because I was traveling alone. The trip was great in every aspect and Vincent and the crew kept on following up in the whatsapp group to make sure I am okay. The gorilla and golden monkey trekking experience was phenomenal and definitely worth a lifetime experience. The trip was well-planned and to my opinion, a wonderful arrangement if you have seven days to spare. Keep it up Ecovic Tours! I hope to come again with my bigger family.

Fantastic 10 days Mountain Gorillas, Chimps & Uganda Wildlife Safari
5/5

From the start we had a great experience with Ecovic Tours. Before the trip Vincent was always available for any questions or concerns and our itinerary was adjusted easily to our wishes. The trip itself was a wonderful experience, especially thanks to our great guide Richard who was always helpful and very knowledgeable! We got to see a lot of different parts of Uganda with some history, culture, nature and of course all the wildlife Uganda has to offer - it was a very good and varied itinerary for us. Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience!
