EXCELLENT SERVICE
We had an excellent experience on our gorilla trekking tour with our guides Anthony and Chris. They both went out of their way to accommodate all our needs. This made our gorilla viewing extra special. Thank you very much to the team. I will highly recommend Friendly Gorillas even if you are travelling from Rwanda which we were.

Operator was punctual, courteous, and the guide was knowledgeable about birds.
The tour lived up to expectations, except that the shoebill stork, the main attraction of the Mabamba swamp was not found during the boat ride. We saw a wide variety of birds. The boat driver could have done a better job at stopping to take pictures. After the boat ride, the operator took me to the Uganda zoo were I was able to see the shoebill stork. The communications to organize the tour were very efficient, I was picked up on time in a vehicle in good condition. The lunch was at a local restaurant and the quality of the food and service was good. The visit to the zoo was enjoyable. The cost of the tour seemed high compared to similar tours in other countries, but it was the lowest I was quoted locally.

Rapid response and good meals
When i visited Uganda with Friendly, the experience i had with them was great. The way they responded was prompt and the meals was great too. The car we uses was in right order. I didn't find much problem not to recommend them except they didn't have WiFi in their car.

Loved it, with lodgings that exceeded expectations.
Really happy that I booked with Friendly Gorillas. They provided great individual attention, and promptly responded to my questions and gave updates to keep me in the loop. The lodgings were better than I was expecting and were all wonderful. They had great ambience with designs that felt like they belonged in Africa, but were very comfortable. I would pick the 3 that we stay at to go back to any time. Also, very pleased with our driver who really looked out for us.

Excellent lodging & response
Our tour was splendid. From the very moment we contacted Antony, he was punctual and always advised on the necessary steps to take.
The selected lodges were great especially, Lake Bunyonyi Rock Resort. Others like Pakuba Safari lodge & Elephant Lodge were wonderful too.
I strongly advice you to use Friendly Gorillas when visiting Uganda. Glad we chose you :)

Superb Safari Tour!
What a trip of a lifetime this was! We’ve been on the 9 Day Uganda Adventure tour and I cannot praise it enough! We had the best of accommodations, the food was delicious everywhere we went and every day was a different adventure in itself. We got to see the chimpanzees and gorillas from up close in their natural habitat, of course and been on amazing safaris that made us get a true taste of Africa and Uganda in particular. Many thanks to Anthony for the great organization of the tour and for his availability and swiftness in replying to my inquiries! Not the least, special shout out to Chris (one of the best guides I’ve met so far) – excellent driver, super accommodating with our requests, knowledgeable and responsible at all times. I highly recommend this tour and Chris most of all!
