Re: Kibale Forest and Semuliki (Uganda)

Okay, think I either hit the jackpot on which particular flights I chose or maybe misread - another booking time gave me a price of $3700 - more like what I had thought & I would need to find a huge matress for a stash like that hmm

Always such a pity that ridiculous airfares can blotch dreams sad

LOL I know it's cheap there, but this just surprised me again by how cheap one can go if you're not punting through insanely priced lodges, but park fees are also very good. If you keep a look out Jay, you might even find cheaper flights on the regular specials out there. Stacks of airlines up here now

sad to say that for that amount of money you'd be lucky if you get half the time in Rwanda.

Nope, don't seem to have made a mistake - just by varying what time you fly on the same days, I am getting prices from $808 - $3700 on the same airline! yikes

Re: Kibale Forest and Semuliki (Uganda)

fekn hell - that 1st class from Cape Town? lmao $800 is about right but you could look at SAA/Kenya Airways to Nairobi then from there to Entebbe with 540 (budget airline of Kenya).

Rwandair is around $600 to Kigali from Jhb and then you could get another flight from here to Entebbe, so around $720-750 total I think

just went on farecompare.com - US$668 JHB - Entebbe big_smile

the return is a long stop-over (flight time 19h) - I presume Nairobi, but for that price not a problem lol!
