5.00I booked my trip late and the other companies all cancelled my reservations, saying there are no permits. But this operator was able to get a permit for me, and was also very flexible making modifications based on my request. Very happy with this operator, highly recommended! The gorilla tour itself was magical, you go through a dense forest, accompanied by an armed ranger who cuts the trail for you with a machete. Then, suddenly, you hear and see the gorillas. You get to spend an hour with them, as they chill, move around, play and chew on the vegetation. Absolutely loved it. At some point, the silverback passed half a meter away from me.
To see wild gorillas was the target

5.00After a few days of searching in Kampala for this type of tours, I received the recommendation of this agency. They immediately made suggestions for tours and accommodations and processed my permits in the National Park on the same day. My driver Dan was an excellent host and safe driver. Always with a smile and kindness he drove me safely along the Ugandan roads, which he knows very well. The selection of accommodation was outstanding. Dan's friendliness also meant that he was well received in all the places he visited. For a solo traveler unfamiliar with the culture, the efficiency of Gorilla trekking is a guarantee to enjoy the trip, as I did.
Incredible!! One of the top experiences of my life!! Dan is the best

5.00Had the most amazing experience!! Dan was absolutely wonderful, super knowledgable and fun to be around. It was clear to me that I was in good hands from the moment we set off from Kampala until we returned. Seeing the gorillas was magical and followed by a boat trip on lake Bunyonyi afterwards, that just made for a perfect day!! Recommend it to everyone who wants an experience that they’ll treasure for the rest of their lives
Very good

5.00Fred was very professional and helpful in organising my Gorilla permits and made the process very easy. Unlike many agencies who charge an exorbitant $60USD fee per permit Fred changed a much more reasonable fee.
