Great communication and well organized tour.
It was our first time visiting an African country so naturally we had a lot of questions. Michael has been of great support ever since we've contacted Bugoli adventures. He offered clear and prompt communication and flexibility to any of our needs and wishes. I believe he prepared a very balanced itinerary that was feasible but at the same time full so there was always a lot of adventure!
We were also very happy with our driver Bosco. We got along really well, as he was very friendly, funny and welcoming. He brought youthful energy which was just what we needed as we are in our early 30s. He took really good care of us and always made sure we were comfortable and well informed. Highly recommend him!
We took the budget version of accommodation and we have to say we were really pleasantly surprised - it didn't feel like budget, as the accommodation was of good level, not to mention the food that was very tasty and plentiful. All the accommodations took great care to accommodate us and our sensitive European stomachs :-)
On a general note, we would like to stress that Uganda is completely safe to travel, especially when you travel with an agency like Bugoli. There has been a lot of fuss regarding ebola this summer, and even though Uganda is now completely free of ebola already for a couple of months, even if there would be an outbreak, travelling with Bugoli made it safe, as the drivers and accommodations made sure you were always in low risk situations.

An Unforgettable Gorilla Trekking Experience with Bugoli Adventures in Bwindi
I had an amazing experience with Bugoli Adventures during my Gorilla Trekking trip in Bwindi, Uganda.
From the very first contact, everything was extremely well organized. Communication was always clear and friendly, from arranging the schedule and all the details of the trip to the hotel pick-up and transportation to Bwindi. The entire process was smooth, punctual, and stress-free.
The accommodation provided was excellent, very comfortable and in a beautiful setting, and the meals were also great. Everything was carefully arranged, allowing me to simply enjoy this incredible experience without having to worry about logistics.
A very special mention goes to my driver, Skihango Silva, who was a huge part of what made this trip so memorable. Besides being an excellent and very safe driver, Silva was extremely friendly, kind, and pleasant company throughout the journey. Spending so many hours on the road becomes part of the experience itself, and having someone like him makes all the difference.
People like Silva are a huge asset to a tourism company. A great itinerary and good organization are important, but it is the people you meet along the way who can truly transform a great trip into an unforgettable memory — and Silva definitely did that for me.
I highly recommend Bugoli Adventures to anyone planning a Gorilla Trekking experience in Uganda. Excellent organization, hospitality, accommodation, food, and, above all, wonderful people.
Thank you, Bugoli Adventures, and a special thank you to Silva for making this incredible experience even more memorable!

Professional company
We booked a two-day trip from Kigali to Uganda to see gorillas in the national park. The entire organization was very professional. The accommodation in Uganda was comfortable, the driver was excellent, and we'll never forget the time spent with the gorillas.

Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi
We went on a two day Gorilla Trekking Safari in Bwindi with a private pick-up in Kigali, Ruanda. The whole experience was amazing! Everything was very well organized from start to finish. The hike to get to the gorillas was stunning itself, with impressive landscapes, hills and tropical forest. We got to see a group of seven Gorillas, including a great silverback and several babies and had plenty of time observing them. The rangers made sure we felt safe throughout the trek and shared a lot of information about the park and the gorillas.
A special thanks to our amazing driver, Patricia, for her professionalism and kindness. She drove very safely, was always on time, and was happy to accommodate all of our extra requests :)

Professional, realiable, helpful, ingishgtful, true to their word, very kind.
So the trip was worth every penny, I couldnt believe how close we got and how easy they made the entire journey. There was things I was missing and they quickly found a solution to all my problems. The team was very professional and insirping, they work hard and deligent and dress very well. The community women doing their indigenous dance was a great way to get energeized and get the day going. The Trek was not hard at all, a little steep jsut in the beggining and end but not hard. They seem to be able to speak calmness into the gorrilas as they mimic ther sounds to tell them we're good people.
I was picked up from Rawanda and taken to Uganda. Crossign the border at night was super quick. A little but longer coming back cause i had to get another visa to return to Rawanda and their process is different.
Getting an experience that blew past my expecations was such a great experince cause if I would of done it in Rawanda I would spent a lot more.
My drivers name was Bright and it was cetainly a bright experience.

Excellent organization. They made me feel secure and happy
This was a unique experience. I went to Rwanda and Uganda to see the gorillas, the staff from Bugoli picked me up at the hotel in Kigali just on time, we went to the border. They helped is with the customs. We didn’t have any problem.Our driver Bright is an excellent person, excellent driver. He took us to the Bwindi impenetrable national park. We spent the night in a very pretty lodge and the experience of being in front of the gorillas is increíble. After being in Uganda, Bright drove to the border to return to Rwanda. Again without any problem. I went to the mountain national park there, walked in the forest to see the gorillas. Another exciting experience. Every thing was perfect, the driver, the lodges, tue food and especially the Bugoli staff. They were in touch with us during the trip. Thank you a lot to them. I recommend them 100%

Once in a lifetime experience and excellent price quality
We were picked up at 8:00 am @ Kigali airport in Rwanda and were taken to the Wagtail Resort Lodge at Bwindi Forest in Uganda by our excellent driver Bright. Transportation and border-crossing went smoothly. The lodge was very beautiful, clean, extremely friendly staff and good food. We arrived around 6:00 pm and went to talk with the local community of the village. Next day Bright took us to the Southren entrance of the park.
We were accomponied with 4 other people to search for gorilla’s. After a 2 h hike we found them and if was ofc breathtaking. Later we were picked up again and went with another excellent driver Collin back to Kigali. Thanks to all the Bugoli crew for giving us an experience what we will never forget
