    We were fortunate to have Eddie, an experienced guide, for the 5 day safari. He did a great job of keeping us on schedule, making sure all permits were ready as needed and accommodations were acceptable. Eddie's knowledge of the itinerary and attention to detail were key to a very enjoyable trip.

    The tour was excellent and we enjoyed it very much. Nothing was too much trouble for our guide Noah who was extremely knowledgeable about animals and birds. He was a pleasure to spend time with as he had a good sense or humour. He was an excellent driver - on difficult roads - he always made us feel safe We had a fantastic trek to see gorillas and chimpanzees and were fortunate enough to see a leopard too. We would thoroughly recommend Friendly Gorillas safari

    We did a 7 day guided tour in Kenya and Tanzania as well as a 5 day tour in Uganda, booked through Serengeti Mara Experts and it was absolutely fantastic! One of the best trips I've taken my whole life. The tour was well organized and their communication was great. We had one driver and guide for each country; William in Kenya, Vumi in Tanzania and Noah in Uganda and all 3 were super sweet, very attentive, professional and fantastic at spotting wildlife. I highly recommend this company.

    My friend and I had a memorable experience, we had a personal driver named Eddie who made us feel safe, took care of us on all the tours and went above and beyond to help us see all the wildlife, and made our road trip adventures fun! Highly recommend this tour and upgrade to the 4 star accommodations. I do recommend engaging early on with Tour Radar if you have an early morning flight arrival to make pick up arrangements, and bring Uganda Shillings, most places only take cash.

    Eddie at Friendly Gorillas made my life long dreams of experiencing Uganda and sitting with Silverback Gorillas come true, Overall Friendly Gorillas Tour group did a very good job of setting up my amazing weeklong adventure in Uganda for the Gorilla trek and Safari. There were some unforseen challenges that came up with individual activities that my guide Eddie went above and beyond to correct. As well as the tour groups manager Frank who advocated to make sure I was happy in the end. I highly recommend this tour group to make memories come true.

    We booked the 5 days Gorilla Trekking Tour in Uganda with Friendly Gorillas and it was truely an incredible experience. Frank and Anthony were very helpful from the beginning, providing us with all the information needed. But Noah, our tour guide, went the extra mile, to make it an unforgettable and amazing trip. Without him, i am sure, it wouldn‘t have been such an awesome experience. We saw and learnt a lot about Uganda, its wildlife and its people and we are thankful for this opportunity.

    Trip to Uganda using Tour Radar was fantastic. Stayed at quality hotels and had better experience than others who paid double (you all go to same National Parks). Our guide through Friendly Gorillas Safaris was knowledgeable friendly and catered our experience to our requests. I
