Of course with Gorilla Bookings Uganda :)
I highly recommend a tour with Gorilla Bookings Uganda. The country is beautiful, safe, people are kind and the nature is amazing. Everything was very well planned and perfectly executed. Our driver, Justus, drove safely and did everything to make us happy. I recommend it to everyone who wants to experience the adventure of a lifetime. I do not rule out that we will visit Uganda again in the future. Of course with Gorilla Bookings Uganda :)

Great experience with Gorilla Bookings
We have had a wonderful journey around Uganda with Gorilla Booking.
From the very beginning, Silvia from the office, has been very quick in responding to our inquiries, and so helpful in trying to meet all of our requests.
Once we arrived, we were greeted at Jero Farm with all the friendly people from the Company. What a great way to begin our journey.
Our guide, Allan, has done more to meet our needs than we could ever have expected. Through our many conversation, we have learned a lot about Uganda and it’s fantastic people. He was a great guide and a kind and helpful person. Ask for him, if you decide to go.
We had a great encounter with a small group of chimpanses. Although there were many people, we still enjoyed the moments we had.
Our encounter with the Muyambi gorilla family was fantastic. Quite a tiresome hike, but well worth the effort.
Aside from the encounters with these magnificent creatures, we also had several fun and heartwarming moments with the local children, that will stay in our hearts forever. Despite the fact that they have so little to themselves, we were always greeted with big smiles and waving hands.
In regards to accommodation, we certainly appreciated Kibale Guest Cottages,
which had a nice small balcony outside each room and beautiful surrounding forest. Also the food was delicious here.
The next place, Ride 4 A Woman Hotel was a nice place that supports an important cause for woman. The people there were also very kind and accommodating.
However, the last place we stayed in, which was classified as mid-luxury, Bunyoni Lake Safaris, was anything but luxury. Back in 1994 when it was built, for sure the place must have been luxurious. But it seems to have not been maintained ever since, giving visitors a stay in run-down facilities.
Fortunately the staff, in particular Pleasure, the girl in the reception, were very kind and eager to meet our requests. So that made somewhat up for the run-down resort.
All in all we have had an unforgettable meeting with this beautiful country, thanks to a well planned trip by Gorilla Bookings. Can definitely be recommended!

Puik ervaring!! Ernstige, georganiseerde en baie betroubare maatskappy.
It was a great trip, everything planned was fulfilled. Communication with his owner (Justus) was very fluid from the beginning, he was always attentive and willing to clarify my doubts, despite not speaking the same language.
Special mention for the guide (Keneth) a great person, he spoke very good Spanish and very professional.
The accommodations included were all very good as was the food.
Uganda is 'n pragtige land, met baie plekke wat die moeite werd is om te besoek, dis baie vriendelike en glimlaggende mense ...jy kan nie mis om die gorillas te besoek nie...wonderlik!!

A local business working hard to promote their country, its people and precious wildlife.
We wanted to support a local business and were rewarded with our decision. Justus (the owner) was very caring, answering our questions and offering advice. Our driver (also called Justus) was a very polite, local young man, perfectly familiar with the roads, the customs and was an immense help to us. I have no hesitation in recommending Gorilla Bookings Uganda.
