Ishasha Wilderness Camp | Uganda | Ultimate Travel Company

SUGGESTED ACCOMMODATION

ISHASHA WILDERNESS CAMP, QUEEN ELIZABETH NATIONAL PARK

Intimate, eco-friendly safari camp

Thanks to its location within the national park itself, guests can expect to see wildlife roaming freely about camp, including vervet monkeys, elephant and hippo – the latter of which is often seen wallowing in the river just below the viewing deck. Expert guides will also take you further afield on game drives, bush walks and boat trips to see the area’s famous tree-climbing lions as well as some of the 600-plus species of birds. When not exploring the park, you’ll have the opportunity to visit the nearby community and school for a deeper insight into local life.

Designed to be as low impact as possible, each of the camp’s 10 canvas tented rooms has a private veranda overlooking the river’s flowing waters, as well as an ensuite bathroom, hot bush shower and large, mosquito-netted bed. The thatched central lounge is an inviting space to dine and relax in during the day, but meals can also be enjoyed al fresco by the river as well as secluded bush breakfasts. The outdoor fireplace provides the perfect spot for sundowners in the evening.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”

We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91�� – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“FABULOUS FIRST VISIT TO SOUTH AFRICA”

Excellent advice received regarding our first trip to South Africa. We were given very personalised recommendations based on what we hoped to experience during our holiday, and the suggested lodges were absolutely fabulous. All transfers ran like clockwork, with polite and friendly drivers. From the beautifully printed, detailed itinerary to the elegant document case, luggage tags, and the informative app, every detail contributed to a sense of luxurious, premium service.

“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”

Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, 91�� stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.
