Uganda Motorcycle Adventure

The entire experience from initial contact and discussion as to choice of route and options to delivery and execution was enjoyable' interactive' helpful and fun. The trip involved bring my sons with me on tour (for the first time) and the the combination of Pius 'Winston and Ali both made the trip even better than imagined and memorable . Pius combined navigation and mechanic skills to perfection. the inevitable problems born of off road were addressed skilfully and efficiently to include a magnificent resetting of a timing chain on the side of a sand track in 20 mins. nothing was a problem. as for Uganda a spectacular varied country with wonderful friendly people. their one area of concern is when they get behind a steering wheel or on one of the many small motorbikes. It was easier and safer driving the bikes in the game parks even with the elephants/hippos /water buffalo /rhino /lion /leopard etc . it is not that they sough to hit you its just that there grasp of the rules of the road is lite touch and they cannot abide an empty space between vehicles. We travelled in a line and a bike does not take up space this drove most Ugandans mad with desire to fill the space despite the fact(especially near Kampala) that there was just a line of traffic ahead and they were going no where fast. That said for 90% of the time there was little or no traffic. A trip I would recommend for all levels as the journey can be modified to accommodate all levels. Our bikes were A1.

Uganda is an amazing country to visit, and the tour was great!. About 40% of our 10 day tour was not on asphalt which was a little unexpected, but in the end it only added to a great experience. I would make sure you plan your tour well with Ali, and make sure you base it on your real previous riding experience as there are plenty of options. If you have little experience of mud tracks and long distances, then the tour should be planned accordingly. There is a major roadworks construction project going on in the west of the country (2020), which can make the riding challenging if you have no off- road experience, however the asphalt roads that we did use were in a remarkably good condition. I would definitely recommend the tour, we thought Uganda was a truly amazing place, and our riding guide Pius was not only an excellent guide but a genius mechanic! I would recommend not trying to do too much in terms of visiting all the 'must see' sights and parks, its quite difficult to plan how long it takes to get anywhere (after all it is Africa) and anyway the riding alone is remarkable.

The parks, the nature, the animals, the people of Uganda, it was all spectacular. This trip was the most memorable experience and probably the coolest thing ive done. Ali and Joseph are generally very good and accomodating guys. Even though there were many issues, Ali and Joseph did their best to take care of everything including buying my medicine and crutches after my accident

I am a beginner and recently took my driving license for motorbike. This was an excellent oppurtunity for me improving my drivingskills in different environment. Often the roads were quite challinging but that was the reason coming to Uganda. I am so pleased with everything from guides to food and different gameparks. Better vacation than this is hard to beat!
