We had a wonderful experience! The itinerary was really good and our CEOs Luke and Ronald were the best.
There?s two things I didn?t like though.
1. Please just include all the meals during the tour and make the tour more expensive. Not including meals in places like Bwindi where there is no other restaurant option and you?re forced to eat at the lodge you?re staying at anyway is just pointless and annoying as you have to calculate the money you have to withdraw from ATMs and ends up costing you more because of high ATM fees! Either include all meals or do a breakfast/dinner included lunch optional system for people who don?t want to eat lunch
2. Kigali View Hotel. Can?t believe G Adventures picks this hotel as end point and recommends it to its guests! It was really bad. The food was horrible, the rooms smelled, the bathroom smelled. Luckily it was only one night so it was bearable but for people who wanna end on a high or who decided to stay longer that Hotel is a full disappointment! And if you decided to keep it as your end point at least clearly label it as VERY BUDGET and recommendations for nicer hotels in the area.

Combine this with the incredible scenery and diverse animal life of Uganda and an unforgettable adventure searching for mountain gorillas, and you’ll experience the full spectrum of emotions and physical challenges.
What an amazing experience! I cannot praise this holiday enough! If you are wondering about whether to book this holiday or not, stop wondering and hurry up and book it!

This was an excellent Safari. The Tour was as described for style and is not for the faint hearted. We observed all of the animals and birdlife you could wish for. This was a real adventure and both my Wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The itinery could do with an update although in the grand scheme of things would not have made much difference.
