Great Chimps

My returning fromChimpanzee trekking was of great enjoy , guide Joseph was really knowledgeable on everything that we came across , reaching to Kibale National Park it is a story never to leave my mind because seeing chimps in their natural habitat is a lifetime experience, all the services well received were five star, it was indeed a great journey and trip that was guided by Joseph the guide

Very disappointing

Very disappointed in this one. After booking, the arranger writes to me to suggest going to budongo forest instead, as you get much closer to the chimps there and get to stay for more hours than the one. When we arrived at the forest, it was just one guy trying to track the chimps and we were not that successfull, only seeing them from far away. As compensation for not seeing the crater lakes, I went on a shoebill sighting. It was okay, but I honestly feel cheated by the change of plans, as I agreed to it, but it was not as advertised. The tour says 2 breakfast and 2 lunch, but was only serves 1 of each. On the first day, we did not have lunch until 4pm, my first meal of the day. The car was shambolic and the seats would jump uncontrollably at every bumb in the road (which you meet all the time in Uganda). The guide barely spoke to me and seemed extremely dissatisfied to have to get up in the morning. I can see others have had good impressions with this operator, so I am probably just unlucky, but I still have to present it as I experienced it.

Response from the operator: Dear RajaShanZaker_K, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Firstly, regarding the suggested change to Budongo Forest, our priority is always to offer the best possible wildlife encounters. Budongo is well known for providing a more immersive chimpanzee tracking experience compared to some other locations. We only make such recommendations to enhance our guests’ experience, and we always ensure that changes are discussed and agreed upon in advance. We apologize if the tracking experience did not meet your expectations. Chimpanzee tracking is a wildlife activity, and sightings can never be guaranteed. Our expert trackers always do their best to locate the primates, but their movements in the wild can sometimes make close encounters unpredictable. We made sure you started your activity as early as 6am so you can find chimps sleeping and maximize your encounter. As a goodwill gesture, we arranged an extra free shoebill sighting experience costing a fortune because you were solo, and we are sorry to hear that you did not find it satisfactory. Regarding the meals, we ensure that our itineraries clearly state the number of meals included, and we strive to keep to that schedule. Upon checking you had 1 night with us and that means only 1 Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner. If there was any deviation, we sincerely regret any inconvenience caused. We will review this internally to ensure future guests have a seamless experience. In terms of the vehicle condition, our fleet is regularly maintained to handle African terrain. However, given the nature of the roads in Uganda, some discomfort on bumpy routes is unfortunately unavoidable. Your feedback is noted, and we will continue to ensure that our vehicles remain in top condition for our guests’ comfort. Lastly, we take great pride in our guides, who are trained to provide professional and engaging service. We apologize if you felt your guide was not as interactive as expected. We will be addressing this with our team to ensure all guests feel well cared for and informed throughout their journey. While we regret that your experience was not as expected, we are pleased that other travelers have had positive experiences with us. Your feedback helps us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much better safari experience in the future. Best regards, Richard Davids

Chimpanzee Experience

Trekking Chimpanzee is one of the best activities one can do while visiting the Pearl of Africa, I booked my trip in January 2023 and we was supposed to travel in May, 2023. It was a great experience, guide Richard picked me up from Entebbe International Airport on my arrival, he drove me to 7 Seasons Hotel for refreshing and for my stay for the night to prepare for the next day's journey to Kibale national park. I woke up at 5am early in the morning , I prepared myself by 6am I was through with my breakfast and guide Richard was ready to set off for our trip to Kibale for Chimpanzee trekking, my our way we made different stop overs to see and watch different amazing Ugandan people and the landscape of the Pearl of Africa, Indeed what I saw clarified that Uganda is the real Pearl of Africa. By 1pm we were in the beautiful land of Fortportal where we had lunch at Travel Inn Restaurant , after lunch we had to continue with our amazing journey to kibale national park on our journey passing through the beautiful Kibale Forest. By 5pm we had reached Kibale Forest Camp where were to rest from over the night, we were given a warm reception by the people around, we refreshed , then had supper and then guide Richard briefed about the next day's activities. In the morning we woke up at 6am prepared ourselves had breakfast and the guide Richard picked us upto the tracking center. The Rangers briefed us about what we were to follow, in the thick forest of Kibale we met chimpanzees in their habitant and the experience was really amazing. With the tour operator together with guide the trip was amazing.
