Heavenly
I would like to thank you and Jones for this unforgettable trip. I wish you continued luck and success with the trips you offer. Your selection of destinations and lodges has given me a comprehensive impression of Uganda. The people are unusually friendly and hardworking despite all their poverty. Your great photos of the animals, especially the birds in different landscapes, made me feel like Uganda was a paradise. Thank you, Theresia

The colorful, diverse flora and fauna, the charming landscapes and the friendly people are impressive. I particularly enjoyed the different boat trips. The currency is called the shilling, and you remove the last three zeros and divide by 4 to get the approximate dollar price.

The tour was organized perfectly and our expectations were fullfilled and even surpassed.
We (four women about 70) were very excited about our tour to Uganda. But our fears proved unfounded, because our guides gave us always security and help.
We saw so many different animals so near, that I hardly could believe it. We saw elefants, lions, buffaloes, rhinos, leopards,a hyena, shoebills, impalas, hyppos, zebras, giraffes, gorillas and chimpanzees on special tracks. We felt always sure. On our tracks we were accompanied by guides, trackers, porters and security. The most spectactular tracks were the gorilla- the chimpanzzee- and the lion-, the leopard and the rhino track. Of course we saw the diversity of the birds and flowers, too and our guides explained them to us.
Our driver Fred drove the jeep very professionell and he was always friendly.
We took boat trips on the nile , on the Victoria lake , on the Kazinga channel and watched the animals at the riverbanks. We passed the equator
During the 14 days we became a deep impression of the country, the people, the traffic, the work and the living of people in Uganda. We wondered how they moved heavy things on their bordabordas, how hard they must work in the mountains to order their fields. Nevertheless they seemed friendly and satisfied.
We were sad, when we visited a primary school and an ambulance, about the circumstances the children had to learn and the medical professionals had to work. And we asked how we could help.
Our journey through Uganda was fantastic. Our guides Isolde and Jones had organized the tour and everything was super. The lodges were clean and practical, the food was very good and the different staffs were very friendly and helpful.
Uganda is a wonderful country, the nature, the animals, the flowers and the people inspired us.
I want to say thank you to Isolde, Jones and Fred for this wonderful and super organized trip. I recommend them for your journey through Uganda.

Wonderful experience in Uganda
Everything was do professionally organized,excellent from the beginning to the-end.
The lodges were very well chosen- many had Ugandan owners, so money really stayed in the country. Our driver was extremely knowledgeable and he drove very safely . The timing of our activities was very well chosen. Overall it was one of the best trips together with our grown up kids we have ever had. We can highly recommend the tour operator- you will always be in good hands. Our daughter had a gluten intolerance and the chefs at almost all the lodges prepared food especially for her dietary needs!!
Whenever we needed to know anything outside our itinerary- Isolde Nowak was always available via WhatsApp
Many thanks for this incredible journey !!

100 % Perfekt Nature Responsible Safari Uganda
Seit wenigen Tagen sind wir zurück von unserer Reise durch Uganda. Bei Isolde Ansprechpartnerin von Nature Responsible haben wir uns vom ersten schriftlichen Kontakt gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Sie hat uns eine tolle Rundreise durch Uganda zusammengestellt und hat all unsere Wünsche berücksichtigt. Unser Driver/ Guide Clinton, ein absoluter Sympathieträger hat uns in Ruanda abgeholt, mit uns den Grenzübertritt nach Uganda vollzogen und uns das wunderschöne Land gezeigt. Auf jegliche Wünsche die wir hatten ist er eingegangen und hat uns sicher von einem Ort zum anderen gefahren. In Uganda gibt es soviel mehr zu sehen als nur Primaten. Das war ursprünglich unser Beweggrund dort hinzureisen. Natürlich waren das Schimpansen und Gorillatracking eine ganz besondere Erfahrung, aber auch alle anderen Aktivitäten haben einen bleibenden Eindruck bei uns hinterlassen. Uganda “ Perle Afrikas“, die Bezeichnung hat Ihre volle Berechtigung. Der Kazingakanal mit seiner unglaublichen Tiervielfalt, der Queen Elisabeth NP, Lake Bunyoni, das traditionelle Essen, die Lodges, die abwechslungsreiche Natur und freundlichen Menschen alles war perfekt.
Vielen, lieben Dank Isolde und Clinton, dass Ihr uns eine unvergessliche Reise beschert habt.
We have been back from our trip through Uganda for a few days. We felt like we were in good hands with Isolde, the contact person at Nature Responsible, from the first written contact. They put together a great tour through Uganda for us and took all of our wishes into account. Our driver/guide Clinton, an absolute likeable person, picked us up in Rwanda, crossed the border with us into Uganda and showed us the beautiful country. He responded to all of our requests and drove us safely from one place to another. There is so much more to see in Uganda than just primates. That was originally our reason for going there. Of course, chimpanzee and gorilla tracking were a very special experience, but all the other activities also left a lasting impression on us. Uganda “Pearl of Africa”, the name is fully justified. The Kazinga Canal with its incredible diversity of animals, the Queen Elisabeth NP, Lake Bunyoni, the traditional food, the lodges, the varied nature and friendly people everything was perfect.
Thank you very much Isolde and Clinton for giving us an unforgettable trip.

Efficient, friendly, generous and helpful.
The trip was magnificent. John was a fantastic host, guide and ambassador. The accommodations exceeded our expectations and the wildlife was sublime. Uganda is as beautiful as I remembered it from 30 years ago, I truly understand why you have made it your home.
Kind regards

Great tailor-made trip to Uganda and parts of Ruanda
Very well organised, tailor-made individual trip (2 pers.) to the highlights of Uganda ending in Kigali/Ruanda. Very helpful and detailed advice what to pack (e.g. scotch to fix mosquito nets, gaiters etc.) and local expectations (tips). Our guide John was extremely knowledgeable on wild animals and societal and political issues which was a great asset. The programme was intense, but also flexible if we wanted to change or adapt parts of it. The so-called low season was ideal in terms of fewer visitors (for gorilla tracking we were only two) and it rained only 2-3 times, not a real problem. Including Ruanda and the Dian Fossey gorilla fund information centre is recommendable, since it is provides a different perspective on the region and Kigali is quite different from Kampala.

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!

You get, what they promise!
Our roundtrip in July 23 took 3 weeks. We were 3 photography-loving ladies in a big Jeep. This was very comfortable, because of our extensive camera equipment.
The trip was unbelievable and well organized by Isolde, Jonas and their team. You can feel the love and connection to this wonderful country. Smaller problems, that arise on every trip, were resolved competently, easily and quickly.
Their special knowledge made this trip more special in some places. We were traveling opposite the larger tour groups and had better opportunities for animal observation and photography.
Our driver Vicent, who looks a little bit like Cuba Gooding Jr., drove us save and well and had a lot patient when the photo looks a little longer.
