    Thank you for taking the time to share your review and feedback with others. We’re delighted to hear that this was a five-star, unforgettable experience. Especially the opportunity to see gorillas, chimpanzees, and the Maasai Mara. While there is quite a bit of travel involved, we hope you'll agree that the overall experience is well worth it. We look forward to welcoming you on your next adventure soon.

    Hi Alasdair, thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that several parts of your tour did not meet your expectations. The driving times are advised as part of our itinerary to help set expectations of your time with us. It is disappointing to know that the road trip portion of the tour was not enjoyable to you, and that you did not find value in your guide as the others on your tour did. We appreciate your feedback, and are happy to know that you did enjoy your time with the gorillas. Please reach out to your booking agent should you care to expand on your experience with us. Stay well.

    Hi, Thank you for providing such a detailed review. We do truly appreciate the constructive feedback as this helps us improve our trip notes on the website. We will look into the discrepancy between pre-booking the Golden Monkeys excursion vs. booking in destination. Usually there is a difference in pricing due to the security of knowing you have a spot booked, and not worrying about tickets being sold out once in destination. We appreciate your time! Cheers, Intrepid Travel

      Regarding travel insurance, for travellers who reside within the European Union, Switzerland, or the USA, travel insurance is not compulsory. However, we strongly recommend that you obtain suitable travel insurance, as some countries may have specific insurance requirements for entry. Travellers from these regions who choose not to purchase travel insurance must sign a Travel Insurance Waiver Form at the Welcome Meeting, accepting responsibility for any emergency medical or repatriation costs that may arise.

      Traveler•Written August 2026

      Thanks for responding my customer is looking for 14 days the max

    • Intrepid TravelOperator•Written August 2026

      Absolutely! If your customer is looking for a maximum of 14 days, we do have a fantastic option that could work really well for them. Remarkable Rwanda & Gorillas of Uganda, which is a 9-day trip.

      It's a really special itinerary combining Rwanda and Uganda, with a great mix of wildlife, culture and adventure. They'll visit Kigali and the Genocide Memorial, explore Musanze and learn about gorilla conservation, enjoy a 4WD safari in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and of course, the big highlight, a mountain gorilla trek in Bwindi National Park, where they'll spend time with a habituated gorilla group.

      There are also some lovely optional experiences along the way, such as golden monkey trekking, a boat cruise along the Kazinga Channel and chimpanzee trekking.

      The trip starts and finishes in Kigali, and the group size is small, with a maximum of 12 travellers.
