Fantastic tour. Kennedy and Paul are outstanding. They go above and beyond (I won’t be able to eat again for days!!). We only had a short time in Kampala and this was the perfect experience - great food, authentic boda boda experience, and lots of local insights and explanations. Kennedy made sure we got to try everything. I can’t recommend it highly enough. These guys are really fantastic!!!

Touring the city with Steve was a great experience. We went through different parts of the city and really enjoyed the explanations and stories that he gave us as we were walking (history, culture, economical, and many more!) He is really knowledgeable and even taught us some words in Luganda. During the tour, you get to stop by a lovely craft market - among others - which is perfect to get some souvenirs or beautiful local arts. Steve also recommended a nice place to eat where we were able to enjoy some local food. I highly recommend touring Kampala with Steve!

Shared a wonderful day of cooking Ugandan food with two lovely hosts. With a lot of helpful suggestions I eventually learned how to peel matooke correctly and watched how to steam it in matooke leaves! Rosette made a delicious butternut soup. The goat stew was really good as was the groundnut sauce for the matooke. A mango salad and mashed Irish potatoes completed the meal. The cooking and the eating together was filled with lots of talk, laughter and sharing of culture.

Right before the departure to Africa, I had a very informative and detailed meeting (via zoom) with Coleb about the entire safari. I have a specific allergy to some food, but Coleb arranged that very well. The package was crafted to my needs and lodges selected perfectly! In my opinion, this is a #1 tour organizer in East Africa!
