Hey guy,
Let me hope the prices are negotiable as you're using tour /safari company which have the capacity to negotiate with hotel management and transport.

So am advising you to proceed with that Costing and its very good Itinerary.

Hi

I set this Itinairy up myself as I was unable to find a tour company that aloud customisable itinairy's or car hire that was self drive as I don't want a driver.

Hey guy,

So am advising you to proceed with that Costing and check the postings from Uganda and you get what you want,because all people who reply on this forum most of them are tour operators in Uganda and they can advise you more than they can do.

Not a hiking guy I know the market on the 8th is a wednesday market which I've heard is the best.
Other than that I'm just going to laze around with my family with an amazing view.

Just to clarify the costing is for a family of 4!

Very interested in your going to Kamuzinda orphanage. I have spent many months there for many years volunteering as a teacher in the Molly and Paul primary school. If you want any tips and people to help you PM me.

I went to Kamuzinda back in July for 2 weeks and I am taking my family so I can not wait :D
It really is the most amazing place isn't it!!!!

Please give my love to mama moses at Kangaroo house and everone at the primary school. Tell her jjaajja Kathy, she will know me well. Have a good time.

For Christ sake, stop impersonating - Magoba IS the manager of "Uganda Kob Safaris". Whatever you do, do NOT use them.

The question is why not use them. As far as I can see he offered me good advise and because of that he gave me the name of his buissness, which has no negative reviews as far as I could see so is it really fair for you stop vital amounts of buissness by reccomending I do not use them. It's pointless and doesn't help.

In my opinion as long as the tour companies state they are tour companies they are in no way tricking me it's just advertisement therfor If I needed a guided tour which I don't I would atleast look at any reccomenations.

Your beautiful and grammatically correct English gives it away, Leumas: YOU ARE ONE OF THEM! (evil laugh)

11

I hope and pressume you are being sarcastic. Mainly due to the fact the whole Idea of this post is so I could have opinion on my trip to Uganda so therefor I AM NOT A TOUT.

I'm afraid I am from Cornwall.

Furthermore read the rest of my post none say "go to my website" (or any of that rubbish) and all the questions I have asked are so I can organise my trip to Uganda in August

In Fact maybe Smallmasterr you are one of them?

Ooooo what a conundrum (evil slightly agitated laugh)

I look forward to your apolagetic reply :)
