“If you could gurantee the same team, group and even half the wildlife encounters I'd book it up tomorrow.We were very lucky with both the wildlife and to have such an enthusiastic and fun group of guides and guests - which made the trip all the better.The locations are stunning - in two days in the Masai Mara we saw the big 5 and had an epic balloon ride at sunrise.Then we were off to Lake Nakuru and the rhinos and flamingos took centre stage, with the smiles getting wider as the wildlife encounters got better.Sleeping within 300m of a waterfall in Nakuru was a highlight and despite being the most basic, was my favourite campsite - hearing lions and hyeenas calling in the night while sat around a campfire checking out all the stars.At Jinja even novice rafters got to experience the thrill of white water and again the provided photos and videos had us all laughing and reliving the day.The Adrift campsite was also brand new and had great facilities.So the experiences built, Murchison has impressive waterfalls and the boat trip was a good way to get out of the heat of the day.Gorilla tracking in Budongo again had us being lucky, being in the middle of chimps hunting, a once in a lifetime opportunity and not something to be expected, but if you get to experience time with the enigmatic chimps you cannot be disappointed.Queen Elizabeth has less diversity of wildlife but still provided lots of Elephants and on the river you see birds and elephants everywhere.Lastly the gorillas - I did two treks and they were both different but magical experiences. The first involved a long trek but we were surrounded by a group and followed them, experiencing interactions with several different family members. This would be a tough trek if you are not physically fit and used to walking up hills.The second trek involved spending an unforgettable hour with Xmas, the largest silverback in Bwindi and his 1 and 2 year old babies. We could not see other members of the family and the trek was shorter and easier, but a very close and magical encounter - when a baby gorilla looks at you from less than 7m you get a sense of how special and priveledged your time with them is.You are also given certificates to help remember your time with these beautiful animalsThe trip to the genocide museum was a very poignant reminder of what Rwanda has been through as well.Some facts - the trip involves a lot of early starts and quite a bit of travelling. Your reward is the trip of a lifetime.The truck is large and spacious but keep things in the lockers or that room fills up quickly.You will need to be able to walk up steep hills for the gorillas, but the team takes things slowly and chooses the best path for the group.Campsites often had showers, toilets and a bar so have some dollars for these.A lot of Ugandan service stations and almost all of Rwanda wanted local currency.Some things to note - the Rwandan border was the most difficult to cross, with a problem getting our taxi across taking 2hrs but providing a great side adventure - a sense of humour about delays and acknowledging that you may be asked seeminglystupid questions is par for the course. Get some snacks and drinks before crossing as there is nothing on the Rwandan security zone.The tour operator team were fantastic throughout, working hard to fix any problems ( airline lost bags), keep our trip moving smoothly and provide fun and share jokes over Albert's fantastic cooking ( his cooking may expand your waistline).Gilbert was the charismatic tour leader with lots of local stories and knowledge, Stoney the unflappable driver who always made time to help, Albert the fantastic chef with all the catchphrases and a personality larger than life, and Charles the youngest and ever smiling and helpful team member eager to greet and hear of our days adventures.A good team feels like family not a crew, these guys felt like family and helped knit the group together.I feel exceptionally lucky to have been on this trip, I've travelled a lot and this will remain a trip to remember.If I could do the same or similar trip with the group and crew I would book it tomorrow, if you promised me half the wildlife too I'd still jump at the chance.Thanks to the tour company for another epic adventure.”

“Well where do we begin.This was simply an incredible holiday and our very first safari.The crew of four; Boniface aka Stony the driver; Ken head chef; Raymond aka Dolly head chef in training and Patrick our tour leader were all terrific, great fun and very hard working guys. They know their stuff and helped make our holiday.The trip covers a tremendous amount of miles around 1300 miles in total. Yes there are a few early starts the earliest being around 4.30am to hit the road around 5am but when getting up a little earlier than normal to go and visit the mountain gorillas the early morning start pails into insignifance. The whole itinary is brilliant. We were exceptionally lucky to have seen the big five (elephant, rhino, leopard, lion, buffalo) and so what more could you ask for especially as this was our very first safari trip. The various stop overs were very good with some terrific campsites with options to upgrade to rooms or hotels along the way.The time spent trekking to see the mountain gorillas can vary we trekked for around two hours which went very quickly but do be prepared for a hilly walk and make sure you have the right footwear and waterproofs as you can come across some small brooks and it could be muddy if the rain comes, we were very lucky as the rain came once we returned back to the start. For sure this experience is likely to remain with you for ever.It does mention in the trip notes that helping out whilst not complusary, we believe it can go a really long way to get to know the crew and other members of the group youre travelling with which adds to the fun around the campfires. The food was fantastic and plentiful each day and the variety was excellent.We thought the trip was really well planned and when things didnt go quite to plan such as the overland truck breaking down at no stage did we feel concerned and our safety was the crews main concern. Everything was done to resolve the issue in a timely manner.We would highly recommend this trip to anyone with a love for animals you get to see so much its hard to put into words. Truly incredible and prividged to see these amazing animals in their own habitat.”

“Be prepared for a number of long overland journeys (you will become very familiar with the truck), but the tour operator's team made it as smooth and enjoyable as possible and the wildlife experiences we had made it all so so worth it!”
