  1. Great video. When bringing US dollars please make sure you bring perfect new bills as Ugandans have great difficulties exchanging bills that have even the slightest knick, cut or stain.

  2. How did you get the permit for the Bindi Ntlpark / Gorilla Trekking?
    What company did you hire the car with?

    + Edit: do you have a complete itinerary? i.e. day 1 arrival to day x departure?

    What telephotolense did you bring for safari?
    Did you had a fridge / cooler in the rented SUV (for food + snacks)?
    Did you take malaria prophylaxis?

  3. Great video! Thanks for all of you tips. You mentioned credit cards don't always work. Was this true with gas stations as well? We are going in a few weeks and plan to have cash, but are hoping to pay as much with a card.

  4. going to UGANDA in july for 3 weeks with a guide cant wait .doing the whole country . love your videos and really informative cant wait . from what im seeing it is an amazing country .doing midrange accomadation . Thanks for a the great videos

  5. Hey, I have traveled around the world over 66 years, crossed the himalayas on a 50 year old miotorbike etc. Normally I drive myself, like that. However i Married an Ugandan last year and spent two weeks there. In Uganda you get a driver, or if you really want to drive, you get a guide full time. They cost nearly nothing compared to your peace of mind. You don't drive in the anarchy of Kampala alone. They get you to all the animal hotspots on sfari because they are on the phone to their mates. You allways get to a convenient restaurant for lunch. When you are stopped on the road by the police, who all resemble Idi Amins Bastard sons you go through like a silk glove. My wife and I were hit ny Covid during the stay, our driver navigated us 35km to the nearest pharmacist. Try doing that when you are coughing up your guts.

  6. I can’t thank you enough for documenting your adventure …. I’m 71 and in pretty good physical condition but was concerned about my stamina … this video shows me that while it will be a bit of a challenge I have time before my trip to fix that .

  7. Great video! Did you do any trekking? Would you say the trails are easy to find? Is it allowed to trek without a guide/ranger? One safety concern is running into wild animals along the way. Thanks 😊

  8. G’day! Very informative- thanks 🙏 We are planning a self drive trip in Uganda next month, do you recall the per day price of the safari car rental? Did they also sort your National Park tickets/gorilla trekking? Thanks 🙏

  9. Hi! I'm going to be travelling alone to Uganda this week and would be happy to exchange over messages for more tips and details! Thank you for this video super informative!

  10. I made a charity Spirulina farm in Uganda that could feed, entertain , and educate tourists. How would you recommend I integrate the farm as a destination with tour guides, travel agents, etc.?

  11. Wow awesome. I'm travelling from Australia to Uganda, Tanzania, zambia, Namibia and south Africa in 3 weeks time. Bit nervous as I'm bringing my 3 year old daughter.. but equally excited. Great video thanks
