A tour guide also known as tourist guide is a person hired to offer information and guidance about a a local tourist attraction or destination on a sightseeing tour by foot or in a vehicle. The top most priority for a tour guide is to ensure clients have a safe, comfortable and informative tour. Self drive road trips might be cheap, private and flexible but also can turn into a nightmare especially if its your first time hence there is a strong reason why you should always travel with some one who knows the place very well for that memorable safari in Uganda.

If you plan on enjoying your Uganda safari, then its recommended you hire a tour guide based on the reasons below.

Security – One of the top reasons why you should consider hiring a Uganda tour guide is the fact that you will be more secure with a person who is familiar with the territory. Fraudsters and robbers are always looming around in the city , suburbs and remote villages looking for tourists to target and if you are alone or new, it will be easier for them to manipulate any situation into a catastrophe. With a tour guide by your side, they are easily fended off knowing the person will be able to react faster than you would.

Planning – Forget about stressing your self planning the Uganda safari holiday and just leave it to your hired tour guide, just let give him a few suggestions of places you would love to visit or an attraction you would love to see and he will craft an itinerary that suits your personal interests as well as budget. Just sit back relax and let you personal tour guide do all the planning and map routing for you.

Top navigation – There is no need to worry about getting lost when you decide to hire a tour guide fior you next safari in Uganda. As much as GPS may be on point, its not as accurate and up-to-date as a local tour guide who knows the current situation of any route to some of the top destinations. A GPS wont alert you of a road repair or an accident ahead which a tour guide will be able to know before hand making decision on the next best route to use.

Up-to-date information – You might have done some research about the destination or attraction on Google or Uganda travel books but the world is always changing and so does information. You might have read an article that has aged hence getting irrelevant outdated insights while you could get nice up to date in-depth information from some one who is always exploring the parks and knows the wildlife habits and best routes around the park.
