Our combined Gorilla Safaris and tours offer a great deal of twin-centre holidays in East Africa for those looking to explore more than one East African destination.

We offer top-rated Uganda-Rwanda gorilla tours, combined tours to Congo, and extensions to Kenya and Tanzania to create a wholesome East African Safari but on many of our gorilla holidays, we have noticed a recent trend of people wishing to land in Kigali – Rwanda and track Gorillas in Bwindi or Mgahinga Gorilla park – Uganda and understandably so because of the deterrent permit price ($1,500) for trekking in Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park compared to $800 for Gorilla Trekking in Uganda.

We have spread our wings to the Masai Mara and Serengeti, and are now looking to move further south to Zimbabwe and the Okavango Delta! Our packages are designed to give you the best experiences available in each destination while being mindful of travel times and budget constraints.

Below are some of our featured packages for combined safari tours; browse through for inspiration, and if you cannot find a particular package of your specific interest, simply email us, and our seasoned safari experts will be at hand to work with you to achieve your dream African holiday.

Combined Gorilla Safaris in East Africa
Rwanda is centrally located for Gorilla trekking holidays in East Africa; it takes only 3 hours on road from Kigali to reach Mgahinga Gorilla Park and 4 hours to reach Bwindi Impenetrable forest national park.
For those planning to visit Congo's Virunga and Nyiragongo, an overnight in Gisenyi is always necessary, and it is also a 4 hours journey from Kigali. We also offer combined tours for Gorilla trekking in Bwindi and a Masai Mara safari in Kenya or Serengeti in Tanzania.
You can also combine that with Gorillas in Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda. We do complete East African Safari circuits combining Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania and Kenya. So, whatever your plan is, we have a solution for you and the expertise to deliver a rewarding and memorable twin-center holiday.
Others prefer the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) for Gorillas in Virunga national park and Nyiragongo Volcano hiking as well as Nyamuragira volcano while still flying in and out of Rwanda's Kigali International Airport because there are not many flight options for Goma.

  Unforgettable - Dear Global team, thank you very much for organizing our 5 ~ 6 days trip. And special thanks to our guide and driver Tony, with whom we had a warm... read more and personal feeling all the way. There was a technical issue with the Toyota Landcruiser and Tony solved the problem the first night. That was a big relief for us and we could enjoy all the fantastic experiences of the Game drives - boat tours and many other expected and non-expected moments. We are grateful for this impressive 6 days and will never forget. All the best for Tony and his family, Jelka and Marco (from )the Netherlands

  Very professional service, would highly recommend.  - I booked a three-day gorilla trek experience in November 2025 as a 22 year old male solo traveler. 

My driver was Tonny, a very dedicated professional who was... read more attentive to all of my needs. The drive from Entebbe to Bwindi is long but Tonny drove safely, something that isn't always guaranteed. 

Once we arrived in Bwindi, the accommodation was cozy and the staff were very kind, ensuring I had everything I needed. The food was good, the views to the forest were amazing and you get to see baboons playing outside of your room.

The trek went smoothly and I also participated in a hike in the afternoon to see a waterfall, an activity I was not expecting to do but was very glad I did!

The drive back also went well and Tonny dropped me off in my hotel in Kampala. 

I am very glad I chose Achieve Global Safaris and I would recommend it to anyone.

  East Africa safari of a lifetime with local Operator  - This group of four from Canada first contacted Achieve Global one year in advance for a safari that covered UG and TZ. We worked with Doreen via whatsapp. ... read more This is a local Kampala UG company. And chose them as they were local to UG which was our starting location. Happily, Doreen was able to provide local TZ experiences as well. Their prices were much less than the South African and other international companies. Our guides (Joseph O for UG and Medad for TZ) were both fantastic. We were able to get to know them both and appreciated their guidance and friendship. The guides were professional with encyclopedic knowledge of the local wildlife and were careful to research unknowns instead of guessing based on our naive “what was that cool bird?”. Doreen prepared a comprehensive 3 week itinerary for UG and TZ. The UG tour included a loop such as Murchison Falls in the north, chimpanzees in Kibale, QE national park, gorillas at Bwindi in the south, and Lake Mburo returning to Entebbe. In TZ our tour included a loop from Kilimanjaro to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Olduvai, Mara River back to Lake Manyara before ending in Arusha. We had selected mid range, and the accommodation was very good throughout with luxury tented camps in some and nice hotels for others. Doreen handled all details, accommodated requests and handled all questions and issues arising. Don’t be afraid to ask for possible add ins, substitutions. Within reason, the guides were able to adjust the schedule to accommodate new whims including a night safari and changing the order of a walking safari based on local developments. This was well scheduled and executed and we have already recommended them to our friends and associates.

  Unforgettable Last-Minute Safari with Achieve Global Safaris  - My sister and I planned a very last-minute trip to Uganda and chose Achieve Global Safaris based on the glowing reviews on their website, we’re so glad we did! With... read more just two days to plan, Doreen was absolutely fantastic. She was incredibly responsive, answered all my questions promptly, and went above and beyond to accommodate every request.

We asked for a trip that included Murchison Falls National Park and Lake Bunyonyi, and Doreen crafted a brilliant 6-day itinerary. It included a visit to the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, where we had the amazing experience of tracking rhinos on foot, and an unforgettable chimpanzee trekking adventure in Kibale Forest, a thrilling and unexpected highlight that added even more variety to our safari.

Our driver, Eddie, was excellent,so professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He adapted the schedule to accommodate whatever came our way, including rain and road delays, while always keeping us informed and comfortable. He was also able to answer all of our animal (and beyond!) related questions with ease.

The safari in Murchison Falls was simply incredible. Within minutes, we saw a lioness and a hippo crossing the road! We were lucky enough to see so many animals, even a pack of hyenas, which felt like a rare treat.

All the accommodation was great, especially Kibale Forest Camp, where we fell asleep to the sound of rain on the tent and woke to monkeys swinging through the trees. So much care was taken with the food and to make us feel welcome.

I was initially worried that the long drives would be tiring, but Uganda is so lush and beautiful, with banana trees lining the roads and stunning landscapes everywhere, that the journey became part of the adventure.

The chimpanzees were full of drama and showmanship, making that trek feel like a true once-in-a-lifetime experience. We now can’t wait to return to see the gorillas!
I highly recommend Achieve Global Safaris, you’ll be in safe, capable, and caring hands.

  Best trip ever.  - A big thank you to my wonderful guide/ driver Haruna that really felt like my best friend. He was very knowledgeable and helpful with my best interests at heart.... read more He kept me safe both on the road and just day to day. As a solo female traveller that was a huge plus. We laughed a lot and I had an experience second to none.
I would also like to thank Doreen who organised my tour. She was always very good at getting back to me quickly and accommodating my wishes. Thank you so much to Haruna, Doreen and Global. I had a fantastic time.

  Rough roads and great adventures  - We were lucky enough to have the vehicle all to ourselves which was great. Elisa our guide was a great guide and driver navigating very rough roads with confidence. He... read more was always on time. Doreen was very good for the booking process and answered all of our questions. We felt it was good value considering the costs of fuel lodges food etc. Elisa cleaned the whole vehicle every day and seemed to know everything about Uganda and the surrounding areas/countries. Highlights for us were the chimpanzees and gorillas.
We would recommend Achieve to anybody who would like to explore Uganda - it’s a scenic country with friendly people!
