Ivan is very friendly, reliable and correct!
5/5

We are two German bicyclists and have been traveling for ten months. Looking for a way to visit the gorillas we got Ivan’s contact. Everything went perfect. Very friendly, reliable and correct. We enjoyed some days in the Motel Santaviva, which we consider a great mix of African guest house and western style hostel. The same with Ivan. He is an authentic African, who knows very well what western tourists like and need. He needs at least two days to get gorilla permits, if available. But he offers way more than gorilla tracking, for example coffee experiences, nature walks, biking, Vulcano hikes and so on. No problem to spend a couple of days in Kisoro. Highly recommended!!!

Most reliable operator in Uganda
5/5

I have been backpacking through Uganda for two weeks and Ivan has been an amazing help in every possible way. He organized the gorilla trek for me and also proposed many other good things. His motel is a great play to stay for a few days and he will make sure you are not getting bored or hungry. highly recommend! Thanks again!

Great place to stay in Kisoro and exceptional hospitality by the owner
5/5

We stayed for two nights in Motel Santaviva in Kisoro. The rooms are very nice and there are several options to sit together in the inner courtyard of the motel or in front of the motel. We had breakfast and dinner at the motel and both were delicious for a very fair price.

Really outstanding is the hospitality and openess of Ivan, the owner of the place. During our 1 1/2 days he showed us the caldera overlooking the city, took us to the local market and accompanied us to a boat trip on Lake Mutanda. He provided us with much information about the area and its people and was just a great guide for the area.

Highly reommended for a stay in Kisoro!

Great

5/5

We stayed at Santaviva for a few nights before our Bwindi Gorilla Trek. Ivan was there to meet us as the border (Rwanada) which was comforting to know and made sure there were no issues. Whilst in Kisoro, Ivan took us on a few walks through town and to the viewpoint overlooking the lakes. After our Gorilla Trek Ivan helped us get bus tickets for an overnight bus to Kampala and was texting us all the details. If anyone is in Kisoro, I would recommend reaching out to Ivan as he will be able to help with any and all planning.
