Fantastic and reliable

5 / 5 5 /5

This tour was a fantastic experience. You get to see the equator and the deepest lake in Uganda but most importantly, watch Gorillas. The gorilla trek was a wonderful and amazing experience but also reliable. The trek goes though some beautiful scenery to the rain first but it is also almost guaranteed you’ll see gorillas. This is because there are staff patrolling the rainforest who communicate with your tour guide to tell them where the gorillas are in the forest which is why it’s almost guranteex you’ll see gorillas. You can get quite close up to them in the rainforest and spend an hour admiring them so it is a fantastic experience. The accommodations also have beautiful scenery. So would highly recommend this tour.

The world's most popular place to see mountain gorillas in the wild and our tourism dollars go to help with the conservation.

Bwindi is home to almost half of the world’s remaining mountain gorillas, making it one of the most important places on Earth for gorilla trekking. The experience of tracking gorillas through dense rainforest and observing them up close is widely considered life-changing.

The mountain gorillas are what we came for. What to say, just magic.

Did two gorilla treks on two consecutive days. Exhausting and exhilerating. Worth every step. Grateful for the porters who provided assistance navigating the jungle underbrush.

Incredible

This was truly one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had. The trek through the forest wasn’t very long—about 15 minutes before we encountered the first group of tracking rangers, and another 10 minutes later, we spotted the oldest member of the gorilla group. From there, we ventured deeper into the forest and eventually found ourselves surrounded by the entire group. Being in their natural habitat, quietly observing them, was a powerful and unforgettable moment that left us with memories to treasure for a lifetime.

Yes, it’s a costly adventure—but absolutely worth every single penny. If you ever get the opportunity, don’t hesitate—go for it!
