Excellent ambassadors for the Pearl of Africa!
Beyond Travel gave me an excellent experience, both leading up to and during my trip to Uganda. They were very flexible and willing to accommodate custom changes to the itinerary, and were friendly and knowledgeable. They arranged for a pickup in Kigali, along with an onward bus ticket after the tour. Ahmed, the owner of the company, was communicative throughout the process, and I appreciated him taking the time to meet with me in person during the tour to seek feedback on the experience. Chris, the gentleman who drove me around, was also friendly and helpful.
As for the tour itself, I have never seen such beautiful landscapes. Lake Bunyonyi is beautiful, as was Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. In addition, the wildlife experiences were second to none, from the lively chimpanzees to the gorillas at rest, to the monkey families in the Bigodi swamp. The lodges were all top-notch, with attentive staff and comfortable rooms.
The tour is an excellent value. Thanks to Beyond Travel, I was able to experience gorilla trekking and chimpanzee trekking at an affordable rate. I highly recommend Beyond Travel.

Trip of a lifetime – far beyond expectations
My gorilla and chimpanzee tracking experience with Beyond Travel was absolutely outstanding and truly beyond expectations. Everything was perfectly organized, from permits and logistics to accommodations and daily planning.
The guides were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and respectful of wildlife, making the experience safe, ethical, and unforgettable. Seeing gorillas and chimpanzees in their natural habitat was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Beyond Travel handled every detail flawlessly.
I highly recommend Beyond Travel to anyone looking for a high-quality, well-run, and unforgettable primate safari.

Wonderful trip!
My adventure in Uganda with Gorilla and Chimpanzee trakking was absolutely unforgettable and perfectly organized from start to finish.
The highlight of the trip was, of course, trakking to see the mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and tracking Chimpanzees in Kibale National Park. Both experiences were beyond words – amazing and stunning. Seeing Gorillas up close in their natural habitat was a true once-in-a-lifetime moment, and the Chimpanzee trekking was just as fascinating and exciting.
The entire tour was extremely well organized. Communication with the organizer before and during the trip was excellent – quick responses, clear information, and great attention to detail. Everything ran exactly on time, and I felt fully supported throughout the journey.
From the very beginning, starting with the hotel pick-up, all logistics were taken care of seamlessly. All park entries, permits, and forest passes were arranged in advance, so I didn’t have to worry about anything. It made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable.
The accommodations were perfectly chosen – beautiful lodges with stunning views of the Ugandan landscape, comfortable rooms, and delicious food. After long trekking days, it was wonderful to relax in such peaceful and scenic surroundings.
This trip exceeded all my expectations. If you are considering Gorilla and Chimpanzee trakking in Uganda - highly recommend this 5-day tour!

A reliable, warm, and professional team that goes the extra mile to make your safari experience safe
My experience with Beyond Travel was truly wonderful. I booked their three-day package to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and Murchison Falls, starting my journey from Kampala. From the very first day, everything was well organized and smooth.
My guide, Kato David, was extremely friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. On the second day, while I was enjoying the Nile River boat ride, a baboon cheekily took our lunch! The team was very kind and immediately arranged an extra meal for me, which I sincerely appreciated. That same day, I was incredibly fortunate to spot a leopard, a moment I will never forget. Special thanks to David for waiting patiently at one spot for about 45 minutes to make that sighting possible. The wait was absolutely worth it.
The accommodation was comfortable, and as a solo traveler, I felt safe, supported, and well taken care of throughout the trip. On the last day, I also booked their car service from Kampala to Kigali, and Ben ensured a safe and smooth journey. I am grateful for his professionalism and care.
If I may kindly share one small suggestion for future improvement: David took some lovely photos of me during the safari, which I truly appreciated. I did, however, feel a little hesitant when I was asked to share my individual photos for branding or marketing purposes, and when a selfie of us was later used as a profile picture without prior discussion. I completely understand that this likely came from a place of friendliness and enthusiasm. As a traveler, it would simply feel more reassuring if personal photos were shared or used after clear mutual consent.
Overall, I had a fantastic three-day safari experience. Thank you to Beyond Travel for making this journey so memorable and special.
