It's always a delight to see which little moments capture our guests' eyes (and camera lenses!). This is from a two-week safari through Uganda in August with a couple we are now happy to call dear friends. Until next time!

Warren Ankwasa, Kikooko's founder, is in Belgium today sharing with other travel professionals about Kikooko's impact as a company, traveling in Ugandan and throughout East Africa, and enjoying some of Uganda's finest products (start the day with fresh-roasted arabica, then wind down at the end with Ugandan gin - what could be better?).

Views from a recent self-drive tour in Uganda!

From mama gorillas sharing a snack with newborns to warm moments with local communities, our guests had a very full trip (and you can see the rest of it on our YouTube channel if you'd like!). You've likely heard a lot of different opinions on what self-drive in Uganda is like, so we hope this video helps you see past the rumors and a bit more to the reality.

For us as Kikooko, we do want you to see Uganda the way you like to travel. If that's 100% with a guide to make sure you don't miss anything, we happily arrange that. If you want complete control of your day and your pace, you're welcome to use our top-of-the-line safari vehicles for your trip, and we'll help schedule local guides along the way so you can enjoy flexibility without worrying about missing any of the most important moments.

Get out of the safari vehicle and into the saddle! It's been a pleasure to see more and more of our guests choosing to add cycling to their safari adventures this year. With views like this, it's not hard to see why!

For many of our guests, a safari is synonymous with binoculars, zoom camera lenses, and spotting on the horizon.

What they don't often expect is that the best view can come from the side view mirror! On a trip earlier in July, this leopard came to hang out just beside our vehicle, as its moment in the shade became an unforgettable moment for our group.

Uganda as seen through our guest's eyes! Marianne recently spent several weeks traveling with us, then sent over these beautiful photos and collages soon after. While we certainly love written reviews, too, there's something unique about seeing the photos a guest chooses to share. It's a way of really seeing the moments that caught them by surprise, that moved them, and that they'll take away from their time with us.

June in Uganda. A few photos from our most recent trip by our talented guide, Ivan.

June is the start of the dry season, and while there truly isn't a large difference here in Uganda between the dry season and the green season, this continues to be one of the most popular months to visit... And you can see why. With animals gathering below awesome clear, blue skies, it's easy to just get lost in the moment and let time pass without a worry.

Here's one of the reasons we love the green season in Uganda: the green! In May, we are transitioning toward the drier seasons, but the grass is still long and the landscape lush. Our guide Ivan grabbed these pictures of big cats enjoying the long grass from our trip a week ago through Queen Elizabeth National Park. Plus, you can't swing by Queen Elizabeth without seeing the tree-climbing lions in Ishasha.

For those curious, Uganda and East Africa, the weather is much more consistent than in other safari destinations. The dry season isn't completely dry and gets some drizzles, while the green season is more about afternoon rains than all-day downpours.

Did you know our founder Warren has spent more than 20 years in tourism? He may not be on the road every day, but as he shares in these videos from his recent trip to Murchison Falls, his passion for guiding and wildlife is as strong as ever. Swipe through for his stories about elephants surviving poachers' snares, hippo dinner plans, and the most powerful waterfall on the planet.
