Amazing experience - special thanks to Raymond!
What a time! We spent 2 weeks trekking, safari-ing and relaxing around Uganda and Rwanda. We couldn't have had a better time! Our guide, Raymond, was top-rate, making sure our experience was perfect. Our gorilla, chimp and monkey treks were mind-blowing. Still can't believe we were so close to the wildlife!

Hannington - The Real Pearl of Pearl Afric T&T
The whole trip was a triumph!!! In terms of accommodations, locations, things we have seen, food we have tried, people we have met and wildlife we have been, just for a while but still, part of. To see all these animals in their natural scenery was magical. Watching gorillas in Uganda and then in Rwanda, when they are eating, playing, living basically, was the greatest and the most wonderful experience in our entire life. I fell in love with Uganda and Rwanda. Such a beautiful countries they are. But probably we was not be able to experience all these things if we would not have our Hannington. The guide, The driver, The tracker, The everything we have had during these two weeks in Africa. He made our trip unforgettable. With him we felt save and secure. Thank you Hannington. This was our first trip to East Africa but I am sure, not the last one. Get ready my friend, we will be back!!!

This was an unforgettable experience. Well organised and we wouldn’t have changed a thing.
Everything met our expectations and more. Huntington was an excellent guide and looked after us. The gorilla tracking was unreal. We were blessed to see a family of 6 on our first day tracking, and then we counted 21 on the second day (including 4 silverbacks) when we fortunate enough to see two families meet. The lodge where we stayed (Ichumbi Lodge) was beautiful and the staff were incredibly attentive. We will remember this experience for the rest of our lives!

Gorilla Trek
We booked our trip through Intrepid Tours, and we had such a lovely time. We were able to experience the cultrure a bit and see another side to life. We had a lovely tour guide with us who always kept us informed of what was to come, and he was very knowledgeable, friendly and stopped to allow me to take photos along the side of the roads when needed.
We had a great experience with the Gorillas, a moment we'll never forget.
Thank you very much Hannington for a great experience and life long memories.

An amazing experience!
I booked through Intrepid, but as this was a short tour a local guide was hired. A great choice! Thanks Hannington for sharing your extensive knowledge on Uganda and all the wildlife, for keeping us informed of the itinerary for the next day, for getting us safely to each destination and for ensuring we were well prepared for our gorilla trek. The trip was well organized and seamless, allowing us to just focus on enjoying the wildlife, the culture and of course the gorillas. A trip of a lifetime I won't ever forget!

I just returned from a great safari tour through Uganda, best organized and guided by Pearl Afric.
At the beginning I had some doubts to do this safari tour through Uganda with a local agency only and without the safety of a well known European tour operater. But at the end I can say it was absolutely no risk. Everything was well planned, organized and guided by PearlAfric. Abdul was a great driver and guide, very friendly, very helpful and always tried to fulfill our wishes. He gave us an insight view of living in Uganda, the situation of the people there and of the beauty of the country. I would like to thank Abdul and Innocent, you did a great Job.

Friendly, accommodating, safe and professional!
For many years, we have known friends who have booked travel plans around Uganda and afar with PearlAfric and every year, Innocent and his team have gone beyond expectations. This year, he, Prim, Fadul and Pamela delivered the most wonderful service helping us make forever lasting memories as we trekked across Uganda and even accommodated our plans as we wanted to head down into Rwanda. We could always email Innocent if we had a question or issue and he was super at getting back to us. In the most professional and friendly manner, he took all our requests onboard, dealt with our group changes (god bless his patience!!) and created the most amazing travelling itinerary perfect for us (students). Prim and Fadul were with us every step of the way, constantly kept us laughing, kept us hydrated with plenty of water and always gave us fantastic local knowledge of Uganda. By the end of our journey with Prim and Fadul, they were not just our heroes but friends also. PearlAfric we will be back!! Thank you Innocent and all the team - you are stars!

Safari of dreams
From the moment we were collected to the moment we were dropped off Pearl Afric provided us with the trip of a lifetime. The drivers, accommodation, food and excursions exceeded all expectations. The rhino sanctuary, game drive, boat trip and waterfall climb all contributed to what can only be described as a once in a lifetime opportunity. I would recommend Pearl Afric time and time again for their outstanding customer service and high quality experience they provide. From fresh pineapple watching the Hippos, to expert information about the savannah and it’s animals, they could not have been better!

Brilliant Experience!
Everything was organised for us so well. If there were any issues they were addressed straight away and sorted for us. Abdul was a brilliant guide. Innocent helped us even after we came home! Can’t recommend enough!
