Amazing service and experience
We had a great time while traveling with Dav Safaris through Rwanda and Uganda. Our drivers Collins and Eddie were really kind, helpful and they explained everything we needed to know. The communication was always quick and easy to understand.
We can absolutely recommend the service we received!
Eric Nsengiyuma was prompt, friendly and very professional.
Reagan was my first contact when booking the 4 days Rwanda Chimpanzees and Gorilla trekking safari. She answered all my inquiries promptly and thoroughly. I did have a lot of inquiries because I was traveling solo. So I felt at ease about the arrangements.
My tour operator, Eric Nsengiyuma, was awesome. He was reliable, prompt and friendly with a great sense of humor. He made my trip something I'll remember for a lifetime. I highly recommend him!!! I was rather sad when the tour ended.

Excellent brilliant amazing tour operators they are simply brilliant
We highly recommend this company. Our trip was truly one of the best experiences of our lives, and everything was perfectly organised from beginning to end.
Seeing the mountain gorillas, especially the magnificent silverback, was an unforgettable experience. We also had the chance to see chimpanzees in their natural habitat. At one point they were high up in the trees, but our guide, patiently waited until they came down so we could enjoy an even better view. That moment made the experience even more special.
A special thank you to our guide, Godwin, who was absolutely fantastic. He was kind, professional, knowledgeable, and always attentive to our needs. Since we had travelled such a long way, he made sure we were comfortable at all times and was always checking that everything was going well. His knowledge of the wildlife and the local area was excellent, and he was always happy to answer our questions. His patience, dedication, and genuine care made this trip unforgettable.
The hotels were excellent, with wonderful service and delicious, high-quality food. Everything the company promised was delivered, and in many ways the experience exceeded our expectations.
We would definitely travel with this company again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable gorilla and chimpanzee trekking experience in Uganda.

Amazing journey
I would like to share my experience while everything is still fresh in my mind.
Before booking, I compared offers from several safari companies, and this one immediately stood out. Communication was always fast, professional, and every one of my requests and preferences was taken into account.
From the very beginning, our only goal in visiting Rwanda and Uganda was to see mountain gorillas. Dav Safaris offered us the perfect itinerary, including visits to two national parks and two separate gorilla trekking experiences—one in each country. Yes, it was expensive, but after completing the trip I can honestly say that it was worth every single cent.
Our safari began in Kigali, where we were met by our driver and guide, Isaac. We have traveled extensively across Africa and have been on many safaris, so we have plenty to compare with. Without any exaggeration, Isaac is one of the best guides we have ever had. He is not only an outstanding professional but also a genuinely kind and caring person.
Throughout the journey, Isaac looked after every detail. He constantly made sure we were comfortable, checked that our accommodations met expectations, surprised us with delicious local fruits, and took care of countless little things that made the trip truly special. His attention to detail and genuine care made us feel welcome every single day.
Thanks to his many years of experience, Isaac knows almost everyone in the parks—from rangers to trackers. Because of his excellent relationships and deep knowledge, he managed to arrange the best possible gorilla trekking groups for us. We realized just how valuable this was when we later compared our photos and videos with those of other visitors. Our encounters with the gorillas were simply incredible, and I am convinced that Isaac played a huge role in making that happen.
Of course, the true stars of this journey were the magnificent mountain gorillas. They were the main reason we traveled to Africa this time, and they exceeded every expectation.
Experiencing gorilla trekking in both Rwanda and Uganda was absolutely the right decision because the experiences are surprisingly different.
In Rwanda, everything is exceptionally well organized and highly structured. The gorillas are more accustomed to people, often coming within a meter—or even half a meter—of visitors. Some may even briefly touch you as they calmly go about their lives. It is an extraordinary and intimate wildlife experience.
Uganda offers something completely different. The gorillas feel much wilder, and the trekking is considerably more challenging. It is physically demanding and definitely not the easiest hike, but that is exactly what makes it so rewarding. You truly feel like you are entering untouched wilderness and observing these incredible animals in their natural environment.
If you have the opportunity, I strongly recommend visiting gorillas in both Rwanda and Uganda. Each country offers a unique and unforgettable experience, and together they complement each other perfectly.
Finally, I would like to thank Dav Safaris and especially our guide Isaac for making this journey so memorable. It was one of the greatest wildlife experiences of our lives, and we will cherish these memories forever.
