Well organized, helpful and trustworthy
5/5

Booked a three day two nights luxury Kigali to Bwindi National Park (Uganda) tour to watch mountain Gorillas. We were a party of two.
Edison from Trots & Safaris was very helpful from the beginning, advising on visas and everything we needed to know, making sure we had all the information we needed. Payment processing was easy.
Our guide Jimmy was very pleasant and we enjoyed the three days with him. He explained many things on the way and made sure all the pick-ups and drop-offs were on time.
I can only highly recommend both Trots & Safari as well as friendly Jimmy. We would love to come back and do this again.

Amazing tour with Jimmy! He knows how to get around and serves the best experience!

I just got back from a 5-day safari in Uganda and Rwanda, and it was incredible. Our guide, Urban, made the trip really special. He knew so much about the animals and the parks, and he always made sure we were having a great time.

Trekking to see the gorillas in Uganda's Bwindi National Park was amazing. It's hard to explain how it feels to be so close to these incredible animals. They're so powerful, yet so peaceful. It's something I'll never forget.

In Rwanda's Akagera National Park, we saw the Big 5 – lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffaloes. Each sighting was exciting and special in its own way. Urban was great at spotting the animals and telling us all about them.

The places we stayed were really comfortable, and everyone was super friendly and welcoming. The whole trip was just perfect.

I'd definitely recommend this safari to anyone who loves animals and adventure. It's a short trip, but it's packed with unforgettable experiences. Thanks to Urban and everyone else who made it so amazing!

Incredible experience to see the Gorillas with Trots & Safari Uganda!

Had a great experience with Trots & Safari Uganda! Organised my trip independently by contacting the company via WhatsApp and managed to book my trip after clarifying a few options with them. I got picked up in Kigali the day before by Jimmy and arrived in Uganda within a few hours. Early the next day we drove to the Bwindi National Park and I got to do the Gorilla trek which was amazing! Big thanks to Jimmy for his outstanding guidance, knowledge sharing and great driving skills as well! Highly recommend Trots & Safari Uganda!

I am not sure if the other reviews are real about Trots and Safari operator. I have completly different experience with this company of my 3 days trip to Bwindi:

1. They have been lying from the beggining. Edison was trying to convinced me (and in the end he did), that they are able to transfer us to lounge in Bwindi from Entebbe airport in 6-7 hours, even when google maps shows time 9-10 hours. Unfortunately I have believed them because of smooth communication and calls with Edison. We arrived at Entebbe airport at 3 pm. We get to the lounge after 12 hours of driving at 3 am next day. Even if we had a good car (look at point two in review), we can not make it in 6-7 hours. It is impossible. If I have knew that, I will never booked this trip. The night driving in the roads of Uganda are not safe at all, do not believed them, if they tell you it is safe! We drove 9 hours at night and have been scared to death.

2. Trots and Safari company has only one car- this company car was broken after first 2 hours of the trip- actually first borken thing was our left front wheel. Took 2 hour to repair it. In total, car has been broken 3 times during our 3 days trip. Every time something different- wheel, engine, cables. It did not make it to the end. We get another 2 cars from insurance company, what was called to transfer us to the hotel. That car should have never been used for that kind of trip. Totally unprepaired and unsafe for trip. We had only luck, that it did not broke in night at Bwindi forest. During our trip we really felt unsafe and that ruined our trip.

3. We did not have any lunch box or dinner on our first day, Trots and Safari are selling this trip as a full board trip.

4. First night we slept 2 hours because we arrived at 3 am, instead of 8-9 pm like was planned by Edison (unreal even for google maps planning, I am ashamed, that that I have believed to this guy). We did trek to gorillas, permits cost 1400 dollars, and we have been too tired to even enjoyed it after 2 hours of sleeping.

4. Our guide was Jimmy- he did everyting what he could. But he did not know even in what accommodation we sleep. And Edisons phone at night was turn off, when Jimmy was trying to reach him to ask, where we should sleep.

5. In the end of trip I have asked for partial refund, they have stopped communicate with me.

I would like to recommend to anybody, who wants to book trip with Trots, first think twice before booking, do not believed everything, what they are saying and be prepared, when you will arrived to the airport and you will give them rest of the money for the trip, they have stopped to being interested in service.
