star rating  My friends were so worried about me going Gorilla Trekking in Uganda as a solo female. Gorilla trekking was on my bucket list because my friends had raved about... read more this once in a lifetime experience. After researching several companies, I chose Mark and Abraham because of their exceptional reviews. This company has a lot of integrity which was extremely important to me. Mark promptly and thoroughly answered all of my many questions and masterfully coordinated my four day trip flawlessly. I cannot say enough great things about Abraham, my driver and guide. Abraham is a very special, extraordinary person with top notch experience. He was always there, made me feel very safe and we had some fascinating and enlightening conversations as we drove through his beautiful country. THANK YOU MARK AND ABRAHAM for an absolutely unforgettable once in a lifetime experience! I am so happy I chose your company.

star rating  My 19 year old son, husband and I booked a 2 night, 3 day private tour with Gorilla Holidays in July 2019 and it was genuinely one of the most... read more memorable experiences we have ever had.

Abraham picked us up in Kigali and took us to the very moving Genocide Memorial Museum before driving us to Bwindi in Uganda ready for our amazing gorilla trek the next day. Abraham was a really informative and supportive guide, making sure that we got across the borders and onto our treks with minimal fuss. The accommodation which was arranged through his business partner Mark was totally delightful and Abraham made sure we were well looked after and negotiated an extended checkout on the last day for us to freshen up after our trek.

The gorilla trek was without doubt one of the most awe-inspiring experiences of our life, trekking for hours through the rainforest before coming face to face with a huge silverback and his juvenile family. Wow! It was such a thrill.

The golden monkey trek in Rwanda on the following day was brilliant too. The trek was much easier and quicker than the gorilla trek but totally exceeded our expectations. The golden monkeys were so much fun as dozens of them played around our feet.

We learnt so much about Rwanda and Uganda on this trip due to the knowledge and efforts of Abraham. In addition to our treks, he took us on a wonderful scenic tour through Uganda and Rwanda so we could experience the stunning scenery and see how the local people really live.

From Mark’s excellent customer service and advice during the booking process through to Abraham’s attentive and informative service as our guide, I couldn’t fault Gorilla Holidays. I highly recommend them for trekking in Uganda and Rwanda.

star rating  We chose Gorilla Holidays after contacting many similar holidays and comparing prices. The price was very competitive, plus our friends had used Gorilla Holidays five months previously, so we knew... read more they were a good company.

Mark arranged our two week holiday based on our requirements and was always very quick to respond to any email queries I had beforehand. We were very pleased with Mark's suggested itinerary.

We were met at the airport by Jonan, in the trusty Toyota Hiace. We remained in this very comfortable vehicle for the next two weeks.

Jonan was a lovely guide, very knowledgeable and a great driver in some difficult conditions. He made our amazing holiday even better.

We enjoyed all the activities and excursions, some were chosen by us and some were added by Mark. One of the activities chosen by Mark was to see the Gorilla Guardian Village, where people who had previously been poachers, but had now been educated to not poach. They replaced their income from poaching with an income from tourists experiencing some of their way of life. This was such an informative excursion and one that we feel all visitors to Uganda/Rwanda should experience.

There were many things on the itinerary, including Gorilla trekking, chimpanzee trekking, visits to game reserves/national parks, river trips, visit the equator line etc.. All were fantastic and very well arranged. The trek to Volcanoes National park to see where Dian Fossey lived and is buried, was very moving and well worth the trek.

We stayed in many different hotels and were very pleased with all of them. Some had basic facilities, but the kindness and helpfulness of the staff, more than made up for the lack of facilities. Some of the hotels had amazing views and others has great facilities. The food in some was excellent, but again those that didn't have quite as good food, certainly made up for it in other ways. I wouldn't say anywhere served bad food, just some served better food. All of the staff in the hotels were great. Our accommodation was mid range and I feel that is what we received overall, with some being a little basic, but others being more luxurious. We would not have wanted to change any of the hotels.

The people of Uganda were lovely and friendly, those of Rwanda were friendly but more suspicious (which is totally understandable after what they have been through).

Some of the roads were a little hairy, but we felt very safe in the hands of Jonan and in the vehicle we were in.

Everything about the trip was fantastic. Some of our hotels were changed at the last minute, due to different reasons, but to us this was not an issue and we were happy to stay at whatever hotel Mark or Jonan had found for us each day.

Thank you to Mark for all the arranging and to Jonan who was a lovely guide who became a friend over the two week holiday.

star rating  Thank you to Mark and Jonan for such a fantastic experience. Trekking with the Gorilla's was simply amazing!! There are many tour companies that can take you on this trip,... read more but Mark and Jonan at Gorilla Holiday really were the cherry on the top. From timeous pick-ups, seeing to every need and going over and above the call of duty to ensure the best service and making sure the experience (including but also beyond the the trek) was excellent. Thank you both for an unforgettable trip! More
