Great Celebration
I just returned from the 11 Day Uganda/Rwanda/DRC trip with Congo Discovery Safaris and I had a wonderful time. Barack and his brother Ken took very good care of me during this trip. Vincent was my driver throughout Uganda and he is extremely knowledgeable about Ugandan and other African countries’ history and about nature. Barack took over as my driver throughout Rwanda. I felt pretty lucky that I was able to see chimpanzees, gorillas, different bird types and lots of monkeys. I have previously been on a safari in Africa but seeing the primates up close was an incredible experience. We also spent lots of time visiting the villages and meeting local people. The village children were just as amazed at seeing a foreigner as I was with them. My tour was detoured from the DRC due to the closing of Virunga park but Ken and Barack were able to fill in the gaps at the last moment. If ever in this part of the world again, I will definitely purchase a tour from Congo Discovery Safaris.

Excellent
Congo Discovery were very flexible when organising thetrip and sending us all the information we needed on a timely manner. All the
Hotels were very nice and very well organised. The best part was of our Gorillas
Trekking in Kahuzi Biega National Park and Barack our driver guide, he was very
knowledgeable and always explained so many things about Gorillas and the
culture in Congo. It was our first time to Africa, a must see destination! We had an
amazing experience and would definitely recommend Congo Discovery Safaris to
our friends and family.

The best trip I’ve ever been on. I consider Ken (guide) a close friend now
Outstanding. I had a tour booked fir Virunga, we found out about one month away that Virunga wasn’t going to open in time for our trip. CDS made some last minute changes and we went to Kahuzi Biega instead.

INCREDIBLE SAFARI
We decided to book a safari in Uganda and Rwanda via Congo Discovery, we were offered a discount and all bookings including flights were taken care of. We had an incredible 11 days and this was our best holiday ever, with memories to cherish for a lifetime. I have never taken so many photos in my life. Great service and will recommend to family and friends.
Thanks.

Awesome and unforgettable visit that ended with a magical trip to Nyungwe Forest
In my life I have been in two or tree Safaris at least because I really enjoy this activity. However, I should state that at Congo Discovery they are outstanding doing what they do. It was very easy to work with them as they are very well organized, informative and efficient. My visit was awesome! Everything was so perfectly dealt with; and on top of it I ended with a magical trip to Nyungwe Forest. I highly recommend booking safaris to Uganda and Rwanda through Congo Discovery, Noela and Barack are amazing and their Insight on Rwanda is extraordinary! This was an memorable experience in all possible ways.

I'll never forget this summer thanks to you! )
We had an excellent time! Uganda is an unbelievably beautiful place! The landscape and surroundings of Kisoro and Bunyonyi are just mesmerizing! The Driver Guide was professional and knew the whereabouts of the animals in all the parks. During our Safari we were lucky enough to see 6 Lions and Gorillas, Thanks Ken

Trip of a lifetime
My boyfriend and I went on an 13 day Rwanda, Congo and Uganda tour in February, I’ve just been really slack so only writing the review now!
We had the most amazing time, we altered our itinerary to include mount Sabinyo in Uganda and would definitely recommend this to anyone, it was a tough day’s hiking and half of it was in the lashing rain but it is well worth it.
We saw 12 gorillas in the Virunga national park and I have to say that was honestly the best day of my life!!
The only downfall I would say was on the last full day of the tour we drove to Jinja for a cruise on the Nile, as lovely as the Nile is it didn’t warrant driving 2 1/2 hours to get there for a 45 minute cruise and then 4 hours back again. Obviously the traffic is out of the guides control and the guides were so lovely the whole time but it might be an idea to change the standard 11 day tour to involve a night in Jinja instead.
The vehicle they used was brilliant and our guide even managed to find us a leopard and some tree climbing lions in the queen Elizabeth national park.
We did so much in the 13 days we were with them and can’t thank them enough!
Honestly it was such good value too, would recommend these guys to anyone and everyone!!

Congo is a fantastic country to travel! Everything worked out well organized from lovely people!
We did a very interesting city tour in Goma and the World largest Lava Lake at Nyiragongo Vulcano! Very good organization! Everything was done professional! It’s a unique experience!
