Professionally Executed Gorilla Trek Tour
Bamboo Eco Tours provided a well executed and professionally arranged gorilla trek experience for us out of Kigali, Rwanda to Bwindi National Park in Uganda. They were very responsive to all questions and requests while initially arranging the tour and made a number of recommendations with regards to activities to include. They provided all needed information for both the tour itself and advance preparation. They were very responsive to questions. In addition, our guide was professional, friendly and prompt. Our accommodation was first class with attentive staff and very comfortable rooms. While the price of the trekking permits is quite high (as set by the government), the cost of the remainder of the tour was very affordable. It was very remarkable to see the gorillas in their habitat - a once in a lifetime opportunity. Would highly recommend Bamboo Eco Tours.

No your standard safari - an unforgettable adventure
Don’t be fooled by the name – there’s nothing “standard” about a safari with these guys. From the moment we were picked up in Kigali, every day felt smooth, exciting, and packed full of highlights.
The itinerary was spot on. Gorilla trekking in both Rushaga and Ruhija sectors of Bwindi was surreal, the chimpanzees in Kyambura Gorge were amazing, and we even squeezed in two unexpected game drives in Queen Elizabeth National Park along with a river cruise on the Kazinga Channel. The lodges were all well chosen, staff were warm and welcoming, and the vehicle was spotless, comfortable, and reliable – exactly what you want when covering long distances (and yes, expect some bumpy roads along the way).
Coleb made the booking and logistics effortless with quick replies, clear communication, and everything lined up exactly as promised. For what was included, the whole experience was excellent value.
And then there was Brian, our guide. Friendly, professional, and always calm, he made the whole journey feel easy. He spotted wildlife we never would have noticed, shared great local knowledge, and somehow always seemed to know the right track to take. When we asked if there was any chance of seeing lions, he went out of his way to make it happen – and he did. That kind of effort turned a great trip into an extraordinary one.
In the end, the wildlife was incredible, but it was the care and thought from the people behind the scenes that made it truly memorable. Standard Safaris delivered a five-star experience – and if you can, ask for Brian.

Highly recommended !
5-Day Victoria Falls and Hawnge National Park Safari. Archie handled my booking and requests quickly and professionally, Muza as driver/guide was excellent. Communication excellent, good service, good value for money, always reliable, and a very enjoyable tour. I am sure it was not easy for Muza as I was the only client on the trip. Fortunately that meant we could stop whenever I asked, particularly useful for birding in Hwange. Thank you!

Eager and willing to accommodate.
David the manager is outstanding in communicating.
Thus, to make the most of your experience, coordinate what you need and want. Next, review the contract to make sure you know what is and what is not included in the deal.

Honestly This Trip Was Amazing
Patrick assisted us in crafting an excellent itinerary; the Serengeti and Ngorongoro were spectacular, filled with abundant wildlife and stunning landscapes. Lake Manyara and Tarangire were wonderful as well, but the Serengeti and Ngorongoro were the highlights for us, and our experience was enhanced by staying at the lovely Serengeti Safari Lodge and Ngorongoro Wild Camp, where we received great hospitality. This trip surpassed all our expectations, and we owe it to Mustapha, who went above and beyond to make everything perfect. We are eagerly anticipating our next adventure in Tanzania with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures.

3 days / 2 nights in Kruger
We spend 3 days / 2 nights in Kruger with my wife and son. Rhys organised everything :
- transfer from Maputo airport to the SA border with private car
- Private car driven by amazing Wade (driver, cook, guide, just ask!) to go to Croc Bridge Gate, then to Skukuza
- Game drive with Service (yes that’s his name), who just gave us the big Five in one single day, while Wade was preparing the lunch on the way
- plus this morning and evening safaris in open truck
- and of course transfer back to Maputo
My wife and son were amazed, not only by the nature itself, but also by the fact that they just had to enjoy!
Rhys made this possible, taking my demands into account and tuning it the way I wanted it : unforgettable moments!
Thanks again to Service and Wade, they were exactly who we needed.
