Extraordinary wildlife experience in Uganda We booked everything with Your Drive Uganda through Titus and requested him to give us the best driver guide.He said "Don't worry 😊", and he gave us Sulaiman as our guide who made our 17days trip in Uganda fantastically wonderful! Sulaiman was professionally a wonderful skilled driver with great customer care, well behaved, kind, attentiveness and his patience at all times. He was much knowledgeable about wildlife,well-versed on Uganda's history, local insights and most interesting social & cultural immersion. We saw all the big 5 animals and primates(monkeys) from different national parks ie. Kidepo N.P, Murchison Falls N.P, Kibale Forest for Chimpanzees, Queen Elizabeth N.P and Bwindi Forest where we saw different families of gorillas and silverbacks! Indeed, Uganda is a gorgeous country. We happily recommend Your Drive Uganda and Sulaiman as your tour guide.

14 days memorable experience I and my friend we are wildlife and landscape lovers, we came up with an idea to visit πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¬ Uganda, among the many tour companies and car rental companies we got your drive Uganda, we hired a car with a driver, which we later found it was 100% a good idea for our 14 days adventure, we had a drafted itenary not so perfect ,later Charles made it really fantastic and memorable, Charles is uncomparable, from wildlife spotting, safest driving, time management and super smart, I would say he is a perfect driver guide you would need on your safari, we had no idea on where our accommodations will be, he had all contacts for different accommodations on his finger tips, despite of the few challenges we got on our trip, Charles could professionally solve them, we found a few challenges with communication with the guys in office, but later everything was sorted, we ,got good memories in uganda, we thought we where having a budget safari but then it was a luxurious one, I would highly recommend Charles and his company.

Reliable and Friendly Driver (Mark) in Kampala I had a positive experience with Mark as my driver in Kampala. He was consistently on time to pick me up from my hotel and put in a real effort to get me to my meetings as quickly as possible. While traffic jams in Kampala are unavoidable, I appreciated his dedication and willingness to help.Mark was also enjoyable to chat with during our rides, which made the trips more pleasant. If you're in need of a reliable and friendly driver, I would definitely recommend Mark!
