A bike tour near Kampala We had a limited amount of time and wanted an excursion outside of Kampala, Uganda. The Gorilla Safari Company designed a perfect tour for us partnering with a bike tour company in Jinja, Uganda. We saw a local community, a fishing port and Lake Victoria. Our guide picked us up at our hotel in Kampala and explained the landscape, economy and history of the area we toured.

Trip was awesome Trip was awesome. We saw tons of animals very close We got great photos of the big 5 and soooo much more Including dung beetles millipedes birds monkeys hippos crocks and on and on. Every where we looked there was something to see From the local people to the scenery to the plethora of wildlife it was nonstop. The gorilla trecking was steep and slippery but sooo worth the effort. Great photos only feet away Definitely hire the porters I am pretty fit and still was glad we had them.

After postponements and last minute… After postponements and last minute flight cancellations, we finally got the trip off the ground! We had a terrific three weeks back and forth thru Uganda and South Africa . It was challenging with Covid restrictions and a semi informed bureaucracy. We were tested 4 times! But, we never missed a connection thanks to our constant back up with Amanda and her local compatriots. Kudos to all our support team, Jackie, Patrick David. You all are real pros, thanks for the memories! All the best Larry and Jan Porter

Terrific Trip Everyone in The Gorilla Safari Company office was extremely nice, organized, and helpful. I'm glad I arrived a day early to sleep-in and visit the nearby chimpanzee sanctuary. I had terrific, knowledgeable, eagle-eyed guides. We found chimps in the wild after about an hour and gorilla's (truly a once in a lifetime experience) in just a half-hour. With the high altitude, climbing up / out of the rain forest was much tougher than I anticipated. Our safari vehicle was nicer than one's I've previously been in. But a word to the wise, bring along a hemorrhoid ring to sit on (you'll find out why once you're on Uganda roads).

A very professional company... We first made enquiries about doing a gorilla safari in Rwanda and a safari in Seregetti in Tanzania back in Dec 2019. After we paid a deposit in Jan 2020, and booked all our flights for the trip in Nov 2020, the pandemic hit.....we finally did the safari 3 years later with much assistance from Amanda from the GS company and she was very helpful and professional in rearranging the whole trip albeit 3 years later! The tour guides / drivers, 4WD, accommodation chosen etc were all top notch and i would not hesitate to recommend this very professional company to book your dream African trip!
