Uganda Gorilla Trekking November
After months of planning and with the expert help from the Gorilla Safari Company my Gorilla Trekking trip was starting to become real. Thanks to Amanda who arranged my entire trip which as a single older lady travelling alone made for a stress free experience and the whole itinerary was perfect. The highlight of the tour was the Gorilla Trekking and it did not disappoint, it was a privilege to spend tine with these beautiful animals in their natural environment. But there was so much more to this tour our road trip started when we met our two tour guides at the airport. Ismail and Amos took us on a magical journey through the local villages national parks and lovely countryside answering our many questions on the way. We were greeted each morning with happy smiling faces kindness and patience. Another highlight after a long search was finding the tree climbing lions a once in a lifetime treat. I found The Gorilla Safari Company reliable and professional . Thank you Amanda and Donna

Yes the tree climbing lions were just fabulous weren't they!! It was a pleasure to have you on our group tour - you were a real inspiration in terms of both your fitness and the way in which you approached everything and it just goes to show that attitude rather than age is what counts!! Our guides are all delighted with the praise that they have received but it was all very much due. We'd love to work with you again so please do stay in touch.

Gorillas and Elephants
We used The Gorilla Safari Company to arrange gorilla and golden monkey treks in Rwanda, as well as a visit to the elephant orphanage and giraffe center in Nairobi. Donna did a great job of meshing these tour activities with our separate travel arrangements. Everything was flawless !

Excellent honest advice from people who have been there done that and bought the T shirt. I cannot recommend highly enough and also on hand when you are on the ground if you come across any issues. I also tried other companies but the level of knowledge was far better here. As a woman travelling on my own i needed to be careful. My trip was amazing, the gorilla' were incredible ...enjoy x

Our Uganda experience with the Gorilla …
Our Uganda experience with the Gorilla Safari Company was exhilarating, exciting and enjoyable in all aspects of the tour. Visiting the gorilla and chimpanzee families was simply a thrilling and amazing adventure of a lifetime. The accommodations were top notch and the staff at all locations were extraordinarily attentive and cordial - first class all the way. Our driver/guide Jude went out of his way to meet our every need and make us feel confident and comfortable throughout our travels. Can't say enough good about him and our overall experience in Uganda. The photographs we obtained, many with the expert help from Jude, will be treasured for the rest of our lives. We are so thankful to the staff at Gorilla Safari Company, especially Amanda, for your thoroughly professional and proficient planning of this most wonderful adventure for us.

Thank you Bonnie and Tom for your really kind words, we are so pleased that you had such a great time on our September Group Tour. We work hard to make sure that the lodges we use for both the group tours and private tours really focus on a high quality customer experience, so it's lovely to get this feedback. Our guides work super hard too, so again we loved reading your comments on Jude. Fantastic for us to see video of the little birthday celebration we arranged for Bonnie and we are so pleased that you have some wonderful photos to remember this special trip. Keep in touch as we would love the opportunity to work with you again.
