点评:We did a 10 day trip with encounter: Denis organized it, and Patrick was our guide. From planning to the end of the trip, experience was exceptional.
First, Denis planned our entire safari, giving us multiple price quotes and adjusting as needed. We did gorilla and chimp habituation, and left the rest of the plan as a surprise— we didn’t really know what to expect. He planned a wonderful safari that hit all the highlights. We saw the big 5, the Nile, birds, aquatic fauna, and of course, the chimps and gorillas. He and Patrick organized to pick us up from the airport and take us to the first hotel we were staying at — before the safari even begun.
Patrick was an amazing guide. We couldn’t have wished for anything more. He was flexible when we wanted to opt for more game drives over boat rides, encouraged us to leave early for better sightings, and was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, culture, and politics. Every long ride from park to park was enjoyable because we had so much to talk about! He gave us the best experience we could have hoped for.
Uganda, encounter, Denis, and Patrick exceeded every expectation that we had. The lodges that they chose were comfortable, clean, and beautiful. They also had phenomenal meals with ample vegetarian options. We didn’t know that we would see all of the big five and other wildlife that you expect to see in places like the Serengeti (leopard and lion sightings, herds of elephants, beautiful scenery with giraffes and zebras, etc); we had only planned for the primates. But they put together the best highlights for us and we couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. We can’t wait to go back!
翻译:我们进行了为期10天的邂逅之旅:Denis负责组织,Patrick担任我们的导游。从计划到行程结束,体验都非常棒。
首先,Denis为我们规划了整个狩猎之旅,给了我们多个报价,并根据需要进行调整。我们进行了大猩猩和黑猩猩的适应性训练,其余的计划则留给了我们一个惊喜——我们真的不知道会发生什么。他为我们规划了一次精彩的狩猎之旅,涵盖了所有亮点。我们看到了五大动物、尼罗河、鸟类、水生动物,当然还有黑猩猩和大猩猩。他和Patrick安排了去机场接我们,并把我们送到了我们入住的第一家酒店——甚至在狩猎之旅开始之前。
Patrick是一位非常棒的导游。我们简直不敢奢望。当我们想选择更多驱车游猎而不是乘船游览时,他非常灵活,鼓励我们提早出发以便更好地观赏,并且他对野生动物、文化和政治都非常了解。每次从一个公园到另一个公园的长途骑行都很愉快,因为我们有太多话题可以聊!他给了我们意想不到的最佳体验。
Uganda、Intercept、Denis 和 Patrick 超出了我们的所有预期。他们选择的小屋舒适、干净、漂亮。他们还提供美味的餐食,包括丰富的素食选择。我们没想到能看到塞伦盖蒂等地常见的所有野生动物(豹子和狮子的踪迹、成群的大象、长颈鹿和斑马的美丽景色等等);我们原本只计划了灵长类动物的观赏。但他们为我们安排了最精彩的亮点,我们对这次体验感激不尽。我们迫不及待地想再去一次!
