Uganda Tours for Experienced Travelers

An excellent and varied intinerary with comfortable accommodation in spectacular locations and knowledgeable tour leaders. The highlight was observing the gorillas - we were lucky enough to encounter a family of six, including a baby, after a relatively short trek of an hour - but the trip also included a fascinating visit to the indigenous Batwa people and provided many opportunities to support local communities and women's empowerment projects. Highly recommended.

Excellent tour where close encounters with a variety of animals, most notably Mountain Gorillas, are virtually guaranteed (with all the planning involved, you'd be extremely unlucky not to see Gorillas in Bwindi). On the tour you also find out about the efforts made in conserving these rare animals and how that sometimes impacts on the human residents in the area both positively and negatively. The formation of several community groups, particularly focused on providing education and sustainable employment, particularly for women, is also shown

Please reserve one room at hotel on last day for grouo, to have shower, changing clothes, reorganizing luggage in waiting for flight. Another company as Explore are doing like that.

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.

Having recently completed the Primates and Wildlife of Uganda trip, we woukd thoroughly recommend it. We were so close the chimpanzees and gorillas, that even now it is hard to believe that we have been in such close proximity to these amazing mammals. We were very impressed with our guide Julius, who was very attentive and informative. Nothing was too much trouble for him. We were also so fortunate enough to see lions, antelope, buffalo, elephants, hippos, wild pigs, warthogs, crocodile, monkeys, and much birdlife. It was an excellent trip, no regrets at all.

Loved this trip. The Ugandan people we met along the way were friendly and helpful. The wildlife was amazing and plentiful. The gorilla and chimpanzee tracking was what this trip had been about, was worth spending the money on if you are wanting to see them in their natural habitat and have a close up experience. We had an amazing encounter with a gorilla group of 10! Highky recommend this tour.
