2 night Gorilla Trek
We had a wonderful experience with Beyond Travel from start to finish. Our guide, Brighton, made the entire trip comfortable, safe, and enjoyable. He truly went above and beyond for us. Before our gorilla trek, I didn’t realize I needed long socks to cover the bottoms of my pants, and Brighton kindly lent me a pair. He also came prepared with masks for us when we learned masks were required around the gorillas. Those thoughtful details made a huge difference and showed how much he cared about making sure we were prepared and comfortable.
The lodges we stayed in were terrific. We weren’t quite sure what to expect from the “mid-range” accommodations, but they exceeded our expectations in every way. One of our favorite places was Acacia Cottage overlooking Lake Bunyonyi. The view of the 29 islands from up there was absolutely phenomenal and unforgettable.
The gorilla trekking experience itself was fantastic and truly once-in-a-lifetime. We also appreciated having the opportunity to meet the owner, who was genuinely eager to learn how he could improve the business and continue exceeding expectations. It was clear that the entire team truly cared and did everything they could to make our experience wonderful.
One thing future travelers should be aware of — and this is absolutely not the fault of Beyond Travel — is that the border crossing between Uganda and Rwanda can be somewhat slow, unclear, and chaotic. Unfortunately, we lost quite a bit of valuable time during the process on what was already a shorter two-night trekking experience. Hopefully others will have a smoother experience than we did. Looking back, I also wish I had purchased a multiple-entry Uganda visa, but that was my oversight, not theirs.
Overall, we were pleased with our trip and would highly recommend Beyond Travel to anyone considering an African adventure.

A life time memory
The Gorilla Trekking tours is one of the most adorable, life time rewarding and beautiful experiences and is also very reliable. Sure it’s a long drive but the tour is very well organised, it’s a beautiful walk through the hills to the rain forest and there is 99% chance you will see gorillas. There are trekkers in the forest who communicate with your guide where the gorillas are which is what makes it nearly guaranteed to see them and the guides are friendly and well experienced with the animals know how to keep you safe and what to do it things to wrong. You get to go surprisingly close up to the gorillas and it is one of the most beautiful experiences. I would highly recommend this tour and the lakes are also beautiful too. Once of my best experiences was this Gorilla trek
