Semu’s people are what made our trip special
Three things I would tell myself if I could go back in time to when I was booking this gorilla safari:
1. Yes it’s expensive, but it’s also great value. As the expedition unfolds, you will see how much care and attention has gone into the experience, and that the price is very fair.
2. Book with Semu Gorilla Safaris. While all tour companies tend to look similar — even interchangeable — Semu is full of professionals and that makes all the difference.
3. Request Eddie as your driver. While I haven’t met all the other drivers, there’s just no way that they’re as genuinely wonderful as Eddie. He is an exceptional human who played an outsized role in our trip being such a homerun.
