Ken | Traveled in February
What an amazing tour this was. We had three incredible close up wildlife experiences, with giraffes on the walking safari at Lake Mburo National Park, with the mountain gorillas in Bwindi National Park and with golden monkeys in Volcanoes National Park. The mountain gorillas had to be the highlight, not least the 5 day old baby, but each encounter was breathtaking. Our tour leader Robert and Umar were both excellent drivers and local guides and did all they could to make sure everyone saw and enjoyed as much as possible. There is a lot more to this tour than the wildlife - the countryside is spectacular, we visited community support groups, learned about the Rwandan history at the moving Genocide Memorial in Kigali, tried banana gin and plenty more. The lodges we stayed in were impeccable, in great locations and with plentiful food. All in all a highly recommended trip.
Tori B | Traveled in February
The trip was amazing over all. Not really under the control of the trip but we had two group members that were quite unpleasant to be around. One 9Rick0 talked all the time and even answered questions we directed at the guides. They suggested to us that we switch up what trucks we sat in but that never happened, so we were always stuck in his truck - ideally the CEOs would really enforce this recommendation.
Umberto B | Traveled in January
Very nice trip in two countries I didn't really know before. We saw a lot of wildlife and the encounter with the chimps and gorillas will remain with me forever. They call it 'the pearl of Africa' and this trip made me understand why!
Lachlan | Traveled in January
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip. We saw the highlights of East Africa over an amazing 3 weeks, and the memories will last a lifetime. The G Adventures staff were amazing as always, and were one of the highlights of my holiday.
Dane | Traveled in January
There's only so much you can control on a safari trip. You can't control what animals you'll see, the weather, etc. But G-Adventures staff goes above and beyond to make sure those things that can be controlled (ie. contingency planning, communication, scheduling, bringing the vibes etc.) is done to maximize the enjoyment of your experience. Having experienced, knowledgeable and personable guides made sure we enjoyed our time while nature and luck handled the rest. 10/10
Kenneth Shumilak | Traveled in February
We saw everything we wanted to see. Next time I would like to experience more village life. The tour was very well set up and it was fun. We had a very good driver. Adrian he was very personal, professional, knowledgeable, organized, and a great driver.
