21 Days UGANDA SPECIAL - Gorillas, Safaris and Birding
First of all, many thanks to Isolde and Jones for the excellently organized and executed trip, which fully met all my expectations.
Since I have already made some trips through East and Central Africa a long time ago, I knew immediately after reading the travel description: "That’s it".
The detailed travel description that was sent to me immediately created confidence. And the very detailed, illustrated "travel book" that Isolde had created increased the anticipation once again.
And this was not disappointed. It is clear that the personal desired animal will not necessarily show itself in the dream position. That's just nature! But we were also very lucky and experienced all the game drives and (almost) all the tracking in good weather conditions.
The highlight, of course, were the gorillas. But the chimpanzees that we saw in 2 parks or the leopard that devoured a python and the white rhinos that we were able to observe on a small hike have to be mentioned too. And not many people should be able to see a shoebill in 2 different places. In Queen Elizabeth Park we were able to drive very close to the leopard with a ranger, which regular visitors are not allowed to do.
It was also very interesting that the program included not only the animals, but also getting to know people and their living conditions.
In the first 2 weeks, the days were very well filled, so that no one could complain about "idleness", while the last days were quieter and planned with a bit more free time, which all participants were happy about.
Last but not least: Many thanks to our drivers Vicent and George, who drove always very skillfully and safely on the sometimes very difficult roads and especially in the muddy road parts of some National Parks!

Amazing trip with Nature Responsible Safari Uganda
I booked a group trip to Uganda with Isolde Nowak as a tour guide. Our group just fitted together really well. I also booked a private follow on tour for two. The accommodations were all well selected. There was nothing to complain except it was always too short. I could have stayed anywhere longer! The driver guides were also great and fit perfectly into our group. Everything was harmonious. At lunchtime, they prepared wonderful picnics in beautiful surroundings.
Of course, they also showed us lots of wildlife. Animals, bird, stunning nature. We saw the Big Five! And shoebills! And chimpanzees! And gorillas! What an incredible trip. Thank you Isolde for showing me this awesome country with it’s lovely people. After the group trip, I did a private follow-on tour to the less touristy northeast, together with a friend of mine and a driver guide.
Also on our private tour everything went perfectly. We got incredible impressions. The time with the Karamojong and the somewhat less touristy Kidepo Park was absolutely worth the long journey. How amazing the landscape was. I‘ve seen the most beautiful lion so far.
I also like to mention our yummy chicken skewers and Rolex on the road.
I could write a novel about my trip. To put it short... Thank you very much Isolde for organizing this awesome trip. Thank you very much Jones for explaining us everything about „your“ Gorillas. What a knowledge you have! Thank you very much to our driver guides George and Vicent for driving us safely through your beautiful country and showing us all the highlights and also off the beaten tracks. Your knowledge was fantastic. I'd love to come again as soon as possible.

outstanding connections with local people
Traveling with Nature Responsible Safari Uganda brings an unforgettable sustainable experience with nature and animals, but also and above all with the people of Uganda. The NRS manager and photographer Isolde Novak knows the best places and time to take unique observations and photos. Since there are only 3-4 people in the cars, we had enough space for our equipment and there was the right place for everyone to take the best pictures. Your carefully selected drivers and guides will help you get to know the country from its most beautiful side and gain an unusual insight into the everyday life of the population. I traveled alone and went home happy with new friends. It was my 2nd trip with Nature Responsible Safari Uganda. Everything was personally and lovingly selected and organized. You can't bring a country closer or better to the holidaymaker.
