- I arrive at a very friendly lodge in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and soon after, an elephant tries to crash into my room !
Then I visit the National Park before riding to Ishaka, across beautiful Western Uganda.

That receptionist woman is so respectful
I have alot of respect to the receptionist lady and hope she's recognised at work because of her welcoming style at work
I really loved her too. Gofreyy💖
Gorretty❤
Yes please
Professional is the word & motherly.
Oh God, that receptionist was so respectful ❤❤
She's the owner
Professional is the word. First it was Esther , now this one. Shows Ug’s cultural advancement. Be good with a fence around you.
And because of you Yves,we are seeing places we have never visited. We are thankful. ❤🇰🇪
Come and visit I host you. Then we go to 254 and you host as I visit 😊
@@saphiranahabwe4527 Sounds like a good idea. Let's plan.
I have visited there. I stayed at the same lodge about 2 months ago.
that was awesome....seeing a wild elephant out your front door just walking by.
Kenyan UA-camr received backlash few years ago after expressing her shock to find National Parks in Uganda. She looked ignorant but her ignorance represented many of us. I supported her because I had never heard of such in Uganda. I was embarrassed when I did a simple Google search and came across Queen Elizabeth National Park, home of tree climbing lions, Bwindi National Park - home of Mountain gorillas, plus many others. I had to travel to Uganda and experience it. Uganda is an underrated tourist destination. There is more than the Source of the Nile. When you visit Uganda, you always want to go back. Our family is headed there for a birthday celebration in a few weeks. Thank you for showing more of Uganda and Africa. Stereotypes and ignorance must be dealt with.
Said it all...am a Ugandan but I supported Miss Trdy. Imagine there's a whole ministry of tourism... But Idk why tourism is not promoted...
I have lived in Kenya, Kenya encourages local tourism.... Ug. does not. It makes local tourism so expensive yet the locals could be the ones to advertise for free.
There are so many Ugandans who do not even know some of these places, so I was shocked at how abusive they were towards Miss Trudy, and yet some of them only see these places on social media but have never really set foot.
@@Flourish_today I just do not know why even our schools do not teach those.
That's why church hill was amazed and named Uganda the Pearl of Africa.looking forward to welcome all of you .
Who even cared about her. Behaving as if she is the one who discovered uganda😂😂😂😂
Exactly, it was a way of preventing danger, but people have to know how to express themselves properly. Long live Uganda
They don't threaten to death instead they said that your method of ride can cause instant death if you will ride irresponsibly! Watching from Rwanda 🇷🇼,Kigali
Yeah,kino should know some of us don't speak perfect English.wr speak direct translation from our mother tongue😂which might be misunderstood.i had him complain in Kenya someone called hi.inzi in Swahili which mean a housefly😂 but that was not the case.it was like "hizi ni Nini?what are these?
@@TeacherBeatrice_
Now that 😂😂😂
@@TeacherBeatrice_ he’s neither English.
I doubt it. It more of a curse being said.
@@calirific3503 why curse one you don’t know, hasn’t done nothing to u? Weird people.
Yves, your reaction to such unsettling words is a natural human response, and it’s completely understandable. However, your extensive travels have undoubtedly shown you the spectrum of human nature-the good and the not-so-good. It’s important to remember that the kindness and warmth you’ve encountered far outweigh the negative. Stay focused on your admirable goals and the rich cultural experiences that await. Each encounter, even the challenging ones, is a valuable lesson in the diverse tapestry of humanity. Your journey is about growth and learning, and this is just another part of the incredible story you’re living. Keep your spirit undeterred and continue to embrace the beauty of our world and its people.
The receptionist is a genuinely wonderful human being.
Very kind
That boy was very clear . He asked you if you wanted to know the methods of harvesting tea.
Bros french, they are naturally rude people haha
Oooh our beautiful country ❤❤❤ oooohhh Uganda
Waaaoo
I'm Kenyan and shocked by how that queen Elizabeth place is beautiful 😢❤❤❤❤
With Gorreti welcoming you, there's no way you could've left searching for different accommodation 😂
She’s very Hospitable.That’s what every Business owner in Africa Should teach their Employees
Very true@saphiranahabwe.
And We will Continue to be here for you.I’m from Nigeria 🇳🇬 🇳🇬🇳🇬 But I salute you for confronting& Correcting that guy with the Evil Tongue 👅 .You made New Friends again.
I'm from that region of Uganda and actually its not an evil tongue but rather "be careful" some words don't have to be directly interpreted but it's a figurative language.
@@bat159true, English is not our first language and sometimes it’s hard to drive your message home. Sometime back I would also be mistaken for being rude yet I was not. And from the way the boys were so humble when he was talking back to them, it shows you they didn’t mean to hurt him. I heard one man at Busega Flyover sayin Baja mukuba ebyuma, literary meaning the vehicles will knock him. But they were only worried for his life. Even my husband was worried for Yves life when I showed him. It’s just that some of us are not that courageous. We fear a lot.
I don't think it's a good idea to confront people in the middle of nowhere, and you should give a space for interpretation of cultural and linguistic differences.
Some Yves I understand where you are coming from, but in Uganda and Africa at large, saying "you are going to die" implies you're risking your life on the roads with that bike. Simply that. ❤😅 We are poetic ❤❤😅😅
Thank you for adding this important context.
You simply can not beat the passion French people have. Amazing and contagious.
Being a Ugandan is a blessing from God ❤❤🎉🎉
Do u currently live there
I’m from Zimbabwe and I have to say this park is beautiful
Yes and and we have more that top that. Kidepo Valley National Park, Mountain Rwenzori National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, very beautiful
Uganda is a silent beauty. That area straddles the Congo border and is quite rainy, btw Uganda is the 6th country by water area on earth.
Am Kenyan but kenya n Uganda are not neighbours they are brothers n sisters,with so much trade so much intermarriage n so much related cultures,just internet banters ,but i cant say the same for other east africa countries 😂😂.. Uganda is on my bucket list
Banange I love you ugandan ❤❤❤❤❤❤nobody will beat ugandan hospitality .....❤❤❤I worked with them in South sudan very kind people ❤❤❤
That is how beautiful Uganda is ❤❤❤ woow elephant 🐘 passing at your home
Only happens in a park not ordinary homes
@@rkacwamustill beautiful ❤
In Uganda, saying you're going to die is not a threat. Its a warning that what you're doing is risky. They're cautioning you to be careful but since the cultures are different you take it as a threat.
Also they are young boys. That’s how they talk at that age!
And they were humble when he was talking back to them. Poor boys. Just lack of proper words to use
Was looking for this comment.....thought it was a direct translation issue. Back in Kenya (Luhya) if mama says "Lero Ofwa", just know you you are in trouble....not necessarily a death threat
Exactly😂
😂😂😂
Kino, I'm Ethiopian and I have been living around Kasese for the past two years. Those guys talking about" you're gone d*# today", they are just trying to refer to how dangerous that road is. There has been many fatalities over the years. They mean no harm. Infact, they are the most humble society I have ever known.
He’s acting tough instead of focus on his journey. Second time he’s confronting with locals which is not good. You will meet some locals they don’t take crap and the will punch you and take al his camera. Forget about white privilege and focus with bringing content to his subscribers.
You know, thank you please. I pitied with the boys. They were very humble but only worried for his life.
There is a lot of direct translation here. For the locals we understand easily
For real that was a miscommunication, he should've asked for clarification instead.
Ya! I like him but he gets offended easily. I remember a guy in Addis disturbing him at juice shop, and Kino got his whole day ruined 😅. Not a good behavior for a Traveller.
Kurt Kaz & Bald & Bankrupt WATCH OUT! There’s a new travel vlogger in town🤣 Your adventures were a mandatory subscription for me, this is incredible content. I was invited to go to Uganda & would never have considered it if you hadn’t shown me what wonderful people they are.
Ugandan moms are so fantastic
*Now this is the real Africa* 🇰🇪
Is there any fake Africa ??
Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan weren't ?
@arnoldmbuthia2687 speak for yourself, please 🤣🤣
@@arnoldmbuthia2687nope
Uganda, the pearl of Africa
Beautiful safari. The hotel receptionist was so kind.
What a beautiful and green field country ( Uganda 🇺🇬 ).
Thanks for sharing
People from collective societies speak in context. People from Individualistin societies are linear and speak directly. When an African tells you something, you have to understand the context. You should never interpret it directly especially if you are from the west.It’s better you ask and the person explains in depth.
You have encountered some other examples before, like when they say, „stand up“, „ you are suffering
Another point is, those boys are young. That’s how they talk!
Love your videos. Please don't act like a kiven, you are a lot smarter. Those young mechanics were just joking, they didn't mean any harm but by confronting them you put yourself in direct line of significant harm.
What an amazing experience...and the hostess at the lodge was so lovely
A minute fourty two seconds in, I had to pause and read comments on that grand welcome! The welcoming lady and her choice of words, grace and humbleness made me feel like I was the one being welcomed. She excelled! That hotel is a true getaway to soak up some sanity 🙂
Merci beaucoup Yves for visiting and showing Uganda our mother land to the world 🙏✌️🇺🇬
Kino u must know that we in Africa English is not our first language,the guy saying u will die today ment totally different from what u understood,i know for a fact its normally a joke they say due to conditions of that road ,so relax frenc boy
I think they mean we'll considering the meaning from their culture. Don't let it get into you. It's too insignificant for this great journey.
That boat ride in the wild was so so epic.
Ugandan ladies in hospitality; thumbs up.
#GoYves.
I respect the way you stand up for yourself, even in a foreign country. Most people would be too scared to say anything, but you always let people know that you know they’re ripping you off, or being disrespectful. You could teach seminars on how to travel and stay safe!
Loved that interaction with your countryman
Anyone else ever get lost and mesmerized watching Yves' leg hairs blow in the wind while he rides? It is entrancing... lol
In all seriousness - I found your channel a couple months ago and am just addicted to watching your journey and adventures. Such a great guy and such a cool trip to feel a part of. Appreciate all your work in filming/editing/posting this for all of us! Much love from Canada!
Yves! One of the best videos, they just keep getting better and better. I found you last year and after I caught up with your current releases I went back and watch the entire journey. Amazing! Be well my friend!
Wow, it's amazing that you managed to watch all the journey 😀
Wow, Uganda is really beautiful. I have added it to my bucket list.
Beautiful sights. I schooled in Uganda anf and that country is beautiful.
Don't worry, my friend, about the words of sick people 😊
In the previous video, I was hoping that there would be an additional clip about animals, and here you filmed it in Elizabeth National Park. It is very wonderful 🤩
I loved elephants very much
Enjoyable trip ..💕💪🏻
I would like to appreciate you for you showing us the whole Africa . I am from Ethiopia I am traveling with you so far May God be with you !
Thanks for making us part of your travels, the effort and sacrifices are appreciated, keep pushing, you don't know how many people are learning resilience from this filmed journey's!!
Thanks Yves for appreciating us.
What an unexpected. Quoi de plus fou que de rencontrer un autre Français qui a vécu la même chose que toi, la probabilité est juste dingue et pourtant. Passionnant ces paysages!
Amazing experiences Yves. We keep cheering you on. Thanks for bringing us along.
Yves great vlog , I’m already looking forward to your next one .😃👍

Salute Brother! The beauti abd diversity if Afruca yet to come. Continue pedaling.
Finally you took the advice you got while in Kenya to have a flag of the country you are in. Nice move. That ad a layer of protection and friendliness. Otherwise Goretti is an awesome receptionist. Her warmness can make one to overlook the cold shower. Finally Uganda is underrated. Those scenaries look like heaven.
Wow the lady was amazing. God bless her
Love your videos. Stay safe my friend. God bless you. 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲
Wow. Uganda is beautiful and green.
Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us. God bless you on your journey
awesome . god bless always mr....
Good for you for stopping and asking
Gotta love this gentleman Yves so very humble and I appreciate your message at the end yes keep up the good work really enjoy your videos I myself will return to Africa sometime next year maybe I'll do a jog throughout the cities like I used to do because of you I'm inspired to do that again!!!!
@Kino Vyes..The hospitality from this Ugandan Gorety is out of this world...Typical of well trained, well brought up Ugandan hotels operators
Indeed, her hospitality is truly exceptional. She is one of the best hosts I ever had
I can't wait until Yves is just outside of Cape Town and tells people he is going to Cape Town and they think it is really unremarkable 🤪
It was very nice that you acknowledged your viewers' contributions to your journey. The message felt like that I, as viewer of your trips, am there doing the journey myself, and it was very heartwarming! Thank you!
It's always feel good to meet fellow country men in foreign lands. Keep going Yve
"I dont
know Uganda, my God, what a beautiful country with really nice people. It made me want to visit this country. Thank you for this lovely video.
Beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing your wonderful adventure. It is a miserable, wet, damp day, here, on the west coast of Ireland so to watch your travels is perfect escapism! The woman who hosted you in the National Park Lodge was such a great ambassador for her country, such warmth, hospitality and elegance. I must say your French is not too shoddy . . . ;- )
Keep it up, your videos are so amazing
Best Ever videos, every moment is exiting. Very Scenic Adventure great. 👍
Thanks Yves for acknowledging that many of us here on the continent are there with you in spirit.. Bear with some of us who are being a bit (if not openly) envious or even resentful..
Wow beautiful place with amazing nature love this video I enjoy watching this amazing video
Wow so nice, keep up..
My husband & I love to watch your journey & enjoy watching every video .. bravo to your adventurous spirit Yves.. blessings & hugs ❤
Well , you went thru my village , great to see you enjoying my village's coolest atmosphere, its the most green in your videos
I really enjoy your travelling all over Africa so we can see the places also...❤❤
The place you stayed at the park was really nice, and so was the lady. Thanks for showing us the animals. 👍
Awesome video!
Keep up with the great work and good luck with your endeavors. Am a Kenyan 🇰🇪 living in Geneva Switzerland and your big fan !
ow man! that is a very beautiful country side
Go go my friend. Much love from Kenya.
Keep going Yves.
I really enjoyed the french luangage❤❤❤
Uganda is so green hills mountains everywhere
Happy to see you
Beautiful wildlife park.
Bravo à toi et au delà de nous faire voyager avec toi, on apprend énormément. Merci
Merci Yves ! Des rencontres incroyables dans cet épisode, entre autres des éléphants très familiers et un cycliste français qui a traversé l'Afrique avec le même tricycle. C'était magnifique !
thank you
Yves, you are indeed a legend.. I hope you will make a turn to Namibia as well. Uganda is beautiful!!
