We came to Griffin Falls Camp to have a rainforest-experience close to the town of Jinja, without driving hundreds of kilometers to the better known nationalparks. When we arrived for our half day birdwatching tour, we were very warmly welcomed by the stuff, before we've been handed over to our excellent guide Robert.
Robert is a real expert for birds and other animals as well as for plants. Even before entering the forest, he showed us numerous bird species, that he himself often identified by their voice, before he (or we) even saw them. Robert was well equipped with a pointer, to indicate the bird's position an an app to show the birds again in detail and add some facts. He was always patient and seemed to enjoy every spotted animal just as much as we did.
Beside the birds, we also saw a huge variety of beautiful and big butterflies, some beetle, dragonflies and monkey and learned about different trees and other plants in this rainforest.

Thank you Robert and thank you Griffin Falls Camp, we had a wonderful experience in Mabira forest!

We went for a nature walk and our tour guide was very helpful and we saw monkeys, many birds, butterflies, ants and very beautiful plants. The price is really worth it!

Main reason to come here is the zipline course, which only takes about 10 minutes but is impressively high. Don't make our mistake and pay for a "nature walk" because it is just the walk to the zipline course and not much else. The prices seem high for the experience generally. There is not much going on here except the zipline and trails to the zipline. Overall it's a bit of a depressing environment because the loss of the forest to sugar cane cultivation is so apparent - the entire drive from Luzira is through sugar cane, not forest. And the river by the zipline is badly polluted from sugar cane processing run off. That being said, this is the main tourist access to Mabira. I don't think I'd return, especially at the prices we paid for the experience. It's too bad. Wish I could say otherwise.

It was exceptional

I just wanted to do the hike to the falls without a guide. They were asking for 50k. I'm a resident! Besides, I was already paying at the Eco forest offices for the whole day. Seems they charge multiple times for a public forest. Trails in Mabira are not marked. There are available maps. Either you go with a guide or you leave it. Overall disappointed ????

The zipling is fun, but short and rather expensive for foreigners.
The camp itself is not really well maintained or hospital and it seems like the management is really after the money. The tents they provide are very small, there is no real area to "lounge". Positive remarks for the connection to the community-based organization that benefits from the profits. Next time I would only come with my own tent or go somewhere else.

Myself and newly wed wife had a great time. The team/guides on ground were so hospitable, helpful, patient and fun. They guided us through the tree top zip linning and archery- both of which we were doing for the first time. They also helped take photos with our own phones in addition to the ones that come with the activity package taken by camera. The fees were affordable for both activities (50k and 60 pp). However, the drive through Lugazi town, then through the sugar canes is quite long and a bit not clear, we heavily relied on google maps and a few large blue rocks along the way. The locals can guide you though. I highly recommend the place.

I know very well we ended up paying too much for this place considering we were only guests there and we were left only with USD. Walking trails in the forest can be very confusing, they should signpost them for their visitors. You can opt for tracking habituated mangabeys, which we did, but we met them anyway on our walks during the day. They have a very good cook from the community named Joan. Seems that this place somehow attracts "elite" from Kampala to perform archeries and zip-lining, there were noisy and litter the camp. Really not impressive at all.

We had an extraordinary experience at Griffin Falls. Our guide was Hakim. Super knowledgeable, great photographer and all round nice guy to have on our walk and zipline experience. The guys that man the different points were equally awesome. We did the forest walk and the 7-line zipline experience. I'm terrified of heights but wanted to do something that challenged myself. They were awesome, explaining the entire process and helped me along the way. I'm so pleased we did this and would highly recommend it to anyone!

The rainforest is insanely beautiful, and well worth a work through even if you don't want to zipline. Just remember to take water (or buy at the kiosk) and remember your insect repellent!
