I don't even know where to begin. These two weeks with Safari2Gorilla Tours were truly the trip of a lifetime - although certainly not my last with them. From the very first contact, everything was seamless and professional. Communication with Aron was excellent; he has a calm, friendly, and professional manner that immediately put me at ease. The entire process, from the initial inquiry and itinerary planning to payment and final arrangements, was smooth and stress-free. As a woman traveling solo, feeling comfortable and safe is incredibly important to me, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. My guide, Martin, was absolutely outstanding. He was calm, professional, organized, knowledgeable, and genuinely enjoyable to spend time with. His sense of humor, reliability, and deep understanding of the places we visited made every day special. He was always punctual, attentive, and seemed to think of everything before I even had to ask. For two weeks, I was able to completely switch off and simply enjoy the adventure because Martin took care of every detail. That level of trust and peace of mind is priceless. Thank you so much, Aron and Martin, for creating such an unforgettable experience. This was hands down the best trip I've ever taken, and I can't wait to come back for more!
12 Day Rwanda Uganda Gorillas Chimpanzees and Wildlife Safari - H
Henry • traveled in March, 2025
The trip of a lifetime! We fit so many great activities into such a short time. We saw everything there was to see (the big five and more!). The chimp and gorilla trekking was the highlight of the trip. We were able to spend so much time just feet away from these amazing creatures. The country was incredibly beautiful. Our guides Veronica and John gave an unparalleled experience with their professionalism and knowledge. By the end of the trip we considered them family. Mukisa Safaris is the way to go if you are traveling to Uganda!
10 Days Uganda's Gorillas Encounter, Wildlife & Kigali City Tour ( Private tour) - N
Noel • traveled in February, 2026
It was a good tour: think the accommodation could be better though for the price we paid. Small fans in large rooms don't work in hot weather. The meals were good. The guides were good & kept everything rolling. Didn't have much luck with the game viewing (except for elephants & hippos) but the mountain gorilla & chimpanzee treks were amazing. And these 2 excursions are what made the trip so good. (These kind of trips can be hit & miss. )
