Carol organised a trip of a life time that exceeded our expectations- awesome
5/5

From the first moment that we contacted Carol, she impressed us, her communication which was spot on, a lot of other companies can learn from her professional approach. She listened to what we were looking for and suggested a fabulous itinerary, which went above and beyond that suggested by the big UK companies and for a much fairer price, and for us we hoped for any $ we paid for our trip would go to Uganda.
From the moment we landed in Uganda we were looked after and made to feel special and looked after, from the welcome and flowers on our dinner table on our first night to the fabulous guide Richard, with whom we spent 9 days. Richard, our guide was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, good company and informative, he guided and looked after us keen to ensure that the trip met our expectations, it exceeded them! Carol’s attention to detail was evident, my husband loves birds and Richard guides bird safaris so was able to point out and provide information on all the birds we saw of which they are over 600 species in Uganda. I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to see not only the big 5 at close quarters, but the Uganda Cob, Water Butt, wart hog, Hippo, Rhino and so many more. The chimp trekking was magical, we were lucky as a mum and baby, came down from the tree and sat with us for a few minutes almost showing off her baby, all the more special as it was Mother’s Day. The gorilla trekking was breath taking and it felt a real privilege to spend time with them in Kibale Impenetrable Forest. The animal high lights, were spotting two lionesses on the hunt on a night safari, being woken at 5.15 by an elephant snoring outside our lodge, then a stand off between a lion and buffalo, the chimps and gorillas, in fact there were too many.
The lodges we stayed in were all very different in character which added to the trip, in each the staff bent over themselves to make you feel welcome, the food on offer was always delicious and varied, the beds comfortable always 5*.
The Ugandan people without exception were friendly and welcoming and as interested in us as we were in them, the majority of Ugandans are leading very very simple lives, that we westerners were living at least 150 years ago and we lead very different lives that neither can comprehend, yet still they smiled and waved welcoming us.
Ugandan scenery is stunning, varying from lush green to savanna and everything in between and the trip gorilla link had organised ensured we got to see all the beautiful gems along the way.
Carol organised a fabulous tour for us and if we go back to Uganda I’d have no hesitation to ask Carol to look after us, as that’s exactly what she did. 10* from us.

Fantastic personal service planning and communication resulting in an amazing Uganda holiday.
5/5

Carol at Gorilla link tours communicated with us on a daily basis via email to develop our personal holiday plan for an amazing holiday . We were met in person at the airport by Carol and introduced to our friendly ,knowledgeable guide,Bob, who accompanied us for 10 days , many many thanks Bob.All the 5 lodges we stayed at were excellent with good food and friendly staff .Bob held all our paperwork for the whole tour , all we had to do was sit back and enjoy the amazing sites .highlights were the chimp and Gorilla tracking and as Bob was local to the area we were very well looked after and I’m sure we had special treatment as a result. At the end of our tour Carol once again met us at an airport hotel to gain personal feedback on our experience print to our flight home a very nice touch which was much appreciated .
I would highly recommend Carol and her wonderful team.

5/5

Excellent company to use for organising your safari to Uganda and surrounding African countries.

First class service and organisation. Very reliable and trustworthy which is critical when you're spending a significant sum of money with a local business who you've no previous experience with.

Carol who owns the company provides a very personalised and prompt service and can tailor an itinerary to meet your requirements and budget.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two week safari, including gorilla and chimp trekking. It ran very smoothly and Carol suggested some great lodges, which she personally inspects on a regular basis to ensure high standards.

Mike our guide/driver was professional and knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. We felt comfortable and safe at all times.

Uganda is an amazing country to visit and I can highly recommend Gorilla Link Tours to provide you with the perfect safari.

Amazing experience
5/5

Carol immediately proved to be very professional in presenting us with a travel proposal and then adapting it to our needs. Since arriving in Entebbe we have always felt safe and in great hands thanks to our guide and driver Richard. Both for the vehicle used and for Richard's experience and friendliness, even the longest journeys have always been pleasant and interesting. The proposed accommodations turned out to be perfect, both in terms of location and quality of the structure. The planning of the itinerary allowed us to visit everything that interested us, with a correct management of the times.
We saw chimpanzees, lions, and especially gorillas up close, a unique experience.
Uganda is a beautiful and safe country, but with a powerful nature that could interfere with your travel plans, also for this reason I can only recommend that you turn to experienced people like Carol and her team, so that any eventual unforeseen can be resolved without compromising the holiday.
