We had a wonderful time touring the Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary with our excellent guides Joseph and Jimmy. They were truly outstanding in their knowledge and expertise! Both men were very knowledgeable and fun to be around. Joseph knew many bird calls and it was nice to hear him call out and have birds respond. We saw an expansive variety of plants and animals (birds, mammals, fish, reptiles, and invertebrates) on our 3-hour walk, making this trip a very memorable one. We were also able to hear about Joseph’s youth club, the Kibale Conservation Club. It was really cool to learn about efforts going on to educate children and young adults about the importance of environmental science and wildlife conservation. Thank you Joseph and Jimmy for allowing us to have such an amazing day!

Lake Nkuruba Nature Reserve is well known as the best place to photograph colobus monkeys in Uganda. The dense tropical forest is home to four species of monkeys including vervet monkeys, red tailed monkeys, black & white colobus and the endangered Uganda red colobus. Guests are almost guaranteed to see monkeys during their visit!

A little paradise in the crater lakes with an extraordinary friendly manager and stuff. The rooms a basic but clean, hot water is great, the surrounding nature is a garden eden. Monkey are all around and up for funny actions.The rates are very reasonable! Highly recommended!

Went there 5 times during 2019. You need a guide, and they are such an asset. You can just walk to the 2 hot springs and cook food and return or be a bit more adventurous. The hot springs are great to see hot water bubbling up and steam rising from the pools. Often too hot when temperature over 30'C. If you're more interested in trees, insects, butterlies, birds or monkeys then it is heading off for several hours into the jungle with a guide. It's great, that is why I went back so often. If you're interested in particular animals etc try and ring a few days before arrival to get a guide who is better in what you want to see. I commonly saw numerous trees, 12 types of butterly, 3 types on monkey, 30+ types of tree and 40+ types of birds. Weather often very hot. Several trips I thought I needed beach wear for the heat, but a burka and wellies for the insects! A compromise was trainers with long trousers tucked into my socks (though wellies would have been better), sun hat, sun screen, water, binocular/camera were well used. A great atmosphere walking through a big forest, you could easily imagine yourself being an intrepid explorer. The last 3 months part of the jungle was flooded, which was bad to the trees and animals.
