    The experience of being close up with the gorillas was one of my best experiences, ever. Close up with the chimpanzees was also amazing, and somewhat unexpected.

    Great value for the price. Our guides jamill and Ronnie were knowledgeable, professional, and did a good job of setting expectations for the next day. I also really enjoyed the local food that was served throughout the trip.

    The Uganda tour seeing the Gorillas and Chimpanzees was a fantastic experience. One I will never forget. I would encourage anybody who had an interest in primates and adventure to do it

    This tour was amazing, and Uganda is amazing. This tour seems under sold and advertised for what a beautiful country and array of activities it has. CEOs were exceptional, a longer trip to Uganda would be awesome.

    G Adventures run great tours and Uganda is one of those special places. The female empowerment tour guides in the small towns and Kigali were fantastic. The trek and lodge for the gorillas experience was perfect. A truly magical place to go.

    I loved the trip and especially the guides. The first hotel was the low spot. I've booked many trips through you guys and this was the first trip where I didn't have a single contact person for my trip. It led to a lot of confusion and mistakes in the front office on your side. They had dates and places wrong which wasn't noticed till I brought tit up. They also tried to keep the money we pre paid for an optional activity instead of paying the company. Please contact me if you want to know more about that. My experience with the front office has me not sure if i will travel with you again.

    I booked this trip as it had been a life long dream to see the gorillas. I was so fixated on that portion of the trip that I didn't look too closely at the other days. I was so surprised though - every day had an incredible experience, from learning about local communities, taking safari drives, rafting on the Nile (this was an amazing add on) and chimp trekking. The local rangers we used were really knowledgable and I felt I came back with a much better understanding of the destinations. Seeing the gorillas was everything I had hoped it would be and more!
