Francis is Great!
5/5

My wife and I had the opportunity to see the Murchison Falls area with Guide Frances, founder of Nature Connect Safaris. He was friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole experience exciting. He worked hard to find the animals we wanted to see.
But a good safari experience is more than just seeing animals. Your Guide is a Host to a whole new world. Francis was a gracious Host and welcomed us into his "home and backyard" with a sense of warmth and genuineness.
We hope to return soon Francis!
Keep the jeep warmed up for us!

The perfect trip
5/5

From first communications with Nature Connect Francis was excellent. Sorting the tour for us and organizing our pick up. He gave us all the detailed information we needed for our trip to see the Gorillas.
Francis was very friendly knowledgeable and always on time. He made the journey from Entebbe to Bwindi very interesting with his local knowledge. The lodges used on the tour were fantastic and the information Francis gave us about the Gorillas before our trek fascinating and informative. The recommendation for a porter to help us on our trip was priceless. We would not think twice about recommending Nature Connect and have recommended them to all of our friends. We feel very lucky we found Francis. We feel we have made a friend and memories for life.

Excellent Tour in Uganda
5/5

Uganda is a beautiful country, we’ve visited the country for 6-days. With the Gorilla-tracking as Highlight of our trip.

Francis and his company managed to provide us with an unforgivable trip. Feeling save all the time. Beautiful mid-range lodges and amazing trips to Queen Elizabeth park , the cruise, chimpansee-tracking and wildlife spotting, and ofcourse the Gorilla’s.

It was worth the money!

Knowledgeable and Accommodating
5/5

We had very specific needs on short notice and Nature Connect Safaris did not disappoint! Francis responded very quickly to our emails and put together a fantastic trip on short notice. The safari vehicle was clean and we had no issues during the trip. There were plenty of snacks and lots of water available at all times. Francis was very knowledgeable about the birds and mammals that we encountered and he was very accommodating when we wanted to stop and look at different animals for some time. Overall, this experience was fantastic and we would definitely book with this company again in the future.

Fantastic experience with Francis! We shall repeat.
5/5

Francis, our guide provided by Nature Connect, proved to be highly professional, punctual, fully reliable, and friendly. He was always flexible and thoughtful enough to accommodate our needs. He is very knowledegeable of wildlife and unbeatable to spot species that are not easily seen, like lions. He is also good at explaining to his clients the specificities of Uganda as a country, if they are interested. He knows how to be present to the extent required, and discreet when needed so that your trip can be intimate if you wish. Altogether, our safari in Murchison Falls national park was a great experience. We are seriouly considering visiting other Ugandan parks with this company.

These guys make you feel like you are travelling with friends!!
5/5

I had an amazing, engaging, and tailor-made tour with Francis and his team. They made us feel very welcome in Uganda and were the perfect link to get in touch with locals. I consider Francis a very knowledgable guy. He is an excellent communicator, who knows everything about wildlife and their behavior as well as the country's history.

He guided my travel companion and me through the Murchisons falls park, even as a seasoned traveler in Africa I find Murchisons falls area stunning and unique, a hidden gem.

When traveling to Uganda, I would recommend Francis and his team because they provide a fantastic tour and experience. Also, we kept in touch, and Francis advised us on where to go in Uganda and Rwanda even after we finished our trip with "Nature Connect Safaris."

Great and so helpful, they are like friends. And do their job excellent, humble and modern
5/5

My contact person with this great organisation was Francis. He is smart and knows a lot about the nature/wildlife, different activities and about Uganda in general.

I consider him as a friend and guide, he helped us in Murchison Falls with activities. He is a man of his word, communicates very well and this there on time when you made an appointment.

After Murchison Falls, we still kept contact with him because he gave us advice about beautiful places and lodges/campsites.

Thank you Francis, your service gave our trip unforgettable experiences!

Francis is the man about the safari - don't miss him, his Landcruiser and pineapple connections!
5/5

Francis is the all-in-one guide. He takes charge of all the details making sure you get everywhere on time yet, stopping and spending all the quality adventures as you witness not just the Big Five but also giraffes, Nile crocodiles, mega hippos, and... I can say no more to spoil the surprises. Sign-up with Francis and you will have an excellent safari adventure. All the best!
