  Mark organized our trip from Kigali, Rwanda to Bwindi Impenetrable forest for our gorilla trek and it was amazing! Godfrey picked us up at our hotel then took us to... read more the Genocide Memorial and a local outdoor market. We then made the drive to Uganda for our gorilla trek the next morning. Godfrey navigated the bumpy roads great and we arrived at our lodge just as the sun went down. The accommodation was lovely. The food was great and the people were very nice. We were minutes away from the entrance for the trek which went amazing. It was an intense hike through the forest but we lucked out and found our gorilla family in about an hour and a half. Thank you Mark, Godfrey and everyone else involved for making our trip so great!

  We did a trip: rhinos, murchison falls, game drive, boat cruise
Expensive, but it’s worth it. We saw a lot, thank you to Augustine, our driver, for the nice... read more trip!

  I went to Uganda on my own as a female traveller for my 50th Birthday! Its been a dream for almost my whole life to meet up with Gorillas and... read more Chimps in their natural habitat. And what an amazing experience I had! I found Mark from Gorilla Holidays online and contacted him with 100's of questions, which he answerred patiently. He helped with my 10day itenary, and when it came to budget, he sticked to my needs. His suggestions for the trip and places where he booked me was clean, safe & gave me such lovely views over the lakes etc. Tom was my driver for the 10 days and he was such a gentleman!! He shared his knowledge, always made sure I was safe and well looked after. I would highly recommend their services. To meet up with the Gentle Giants, the Gorillas in the wild, was an experience I would treassure for life and you cant go wrong to book through Gorilla Holidays. Absolutely worth the every sent you saved for the trip..you pay 50% upfront and 50% after you have landed in Entebbe. Its a trustworthy company, and best priced aswell.
Thanks once again Mark and Tom for making my dream a reality. You guys are really outstanding!

  We spent 9 days touring Uganda and 2 days in Rwanda- there were so many highlights-and our guide Innocent was responsible for making the whole trip so bespoke and relaxing.... read more His knowledge of the routes and sights was unbelievable and he gave us the best insight into life in Uganda as we felt we saw it first hand from the trip. From Entebbe through Murchison Falls National Park and the river Nile cruise was spectacular, I never expected to see so many hippos and crocodiles close up, and the climb up Murchison Falls made a really nice activity.
Another river cruise in Queen Elizabeth National Park on the Chambura channel gave us great sights of elephants and buffalo in the water.
Kibale forest trekking and having our first experience of seeing chimpanzees was unforgettable we had an hour of watching them close up- it was awesome.
Then the journey to Bwindi impenetrable forest in itself was amazing- the African mud roads, the forest mist, the scenery of fields of tea was superb.
The trek and the experience of seeing the gorillas was a memory we will treasure for a lifetime, all our friends and family are still in awe of our experience.
It was a privilege and a young male gorilla playfully grabbed Stuart’s leg- he is never going to wash his trousers!
The lodges near each forest were stunning especially Heritage Safari Lodge, Chimpanzee Forest guesthouse has the most stunning gardens and Ichumbi gorilla lodge were all beautiful luxurious lodges. Also a swamp tour in the Bigodi wetlands with Pato and Julius was a highlight to learn about the local medicinal plants and trees where we saw colobus monkeys.
I would recommend this holiday to everyone as the trip of a lifetime.
