Candrem Expedition Tour and Travel

Perfectly Organized 2-Day Gorilla Trekking Adventure I had an amazing 2-day gorilla safari to Bwindi starting and ending in Kigali. The entire trip was exceptionally well organized, with smooth transportation, excellent communication, and great attention to detail throughout. Our guide was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable, making the long journey comfortable and enjoyable. The highlight, of course, was the unforgettable gorilla trekking experience in Bwindi, which exceeded all my expectations. Everything went exactly as planned, and I felt well taken care of from the moment I was picked up in Kigali until my return. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a reliable and professional safari operator. Thank you for an incredible experience and memories that will last a lifetime!

Exceeded All Expectations: The Perfect 4th Safari in Uganda with Candrem! Absolutely phenomenal! This was my fourth safari in Africa, and it was, without a doubt, the most well-organized, enriching, and spectacular one yet. A huge part of that success is thanks to this incredible tour operator and especially their owner/manager, [Name, or "the owner" if name unknown]. From the very first inquiry, the owner's professionalism and dedication were evident. He was exceptionally responsive, patient, and incredibly detailed. He didn't just sell a package; he co-created an itinerary. We went back and forth multiple times adjusting the schedule, and he always had thoughtful recommendations based on real-time park conditions and animal movements. His knowledge is vast, and he genuinely wants to craft the perfect trip for you. A standout feature that sets them apart is the comprehensive PDF guide they provide before the trip. This isn't just a simple itinerary; it's a robust, detailed document covering everything: a day-by-day breakdown, packing lists, cultural etiquette, bird and mammal checklists for Uganda, background info on the parks, and even practical tips for photography. It was an invaluable resource that prepared us thoroughly and heightened our excitement. The safari itself exceeded all expectations. Thanks to the expertly planned route and our fantastic guide/driver, we saw an astounding array of wildlife—even more than on my previous three African trips! The guide's spotting skills were eagle-eyed, and his knowledge about every animal, bird, and ecosystem was impressive. The vehicle was a major plus—a high-spec Toyota Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof. It was comfortable, rugged, and perfectly suited for Uganda's diverse terrain. Whether on dusty tracks or muddy trails after a rain, the performance was flawless, and we always felt secure and (relatively) clean inside our mobile viewing platform. Speaking of our driver/guide, he was the heart of the experience. He was enthusiastic, endlessly knowledgeable, and went above and beyond at every turn. His commitment was most evident on our final travel day, which involved a marathon drive of nearly 18 hours to get us back on schedule. His focus, skill, and good cheer throughout that long journey were nothing short of heroic. It demonstrated a level of dedication and client care that is truly rare. In summary, if you are looking for a Uganda safari operator that combines meticulous planning, expert guidance, top-notch equipment, and a genuinely passionate team that treats your trip as their priority, look no further. This team delivers an exceptional, five-star experience from the first email to the final drop-off. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you for an unforgettable Ugandan adventure

Super Professional and Very Thoughtful! We had a great time with Andrew. He picked us up in Rwanda and drove us across the border into Uganda with no problems. He was very friendly and made sure that we were comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again.

The right choice to visit and experience Uganda Uganda was a pleasant discovery and Candrem Expedition the best guide. Andrew is kind, helpful and knowledgeable. The accommodations were clean, comfortable and suitable for the context, without being too luxurious and impersonal. The activities and safari were interesting, engaging and well organised; we saw lots of animals: everything we were looking for...and more! The transfers, sometimes a little long, but always comfortable and with the right times and breaks. Uganda and the tour were beyond our expectations!

Proactive, trustworthy A cool safari operator with an interesting tour guide, Allani, who was helpful, explained a lot and told stories about Africa, talked about nature and the places we passed and visited. The accommodation was good, but it is worth asking for details about each one separately, because in our case, one location did not match the standard described and shown in the photos in the offer. The meals were simple but tasty. The car was relatively new, clean and in good technical condition. Overall, the company is worth recommending. It is important to clarify and agree on everything in advance so that expectations are met and there are no surprises. Unfortunately, they do not guarantee that you will see all the animals, and we did not see any lions during the safari. Well, that's nature, and there are no guarantees. Definitely worth seeing are the gorillas, chimpanzees, walking safari with zebras and giraffes, and the canal in Elizabeth Park with elephants, buffalos and hippos by the water. Remember that all drinks are paid for at your own expense at meal times. And you should have plenty of small dollar bills for tips, because they are given everywhere due to the low wages of the local population, and they are expected and welcome.
