Our safari experience can offer more than just gorilla trekking. Try your hand at other activities like canoeing, hiking, cycling, bird watching, and so much more. There is no shortage of wonderful experiences in Rwanda or Uganda.
Lovely feedback from a recent client visit to Rwanda to trek with the Golden Monkeys and Gorillas.
“We had a wonderful time. Really well coordinated, from the time we landed, to when we were dropped off to the airport. Edmund was absolutely amazing. We both really enjoyed the experience. Will surely recommend your company to our friends / others looking to visit.”
While our gorilla trekking safaris offer thrilling encounters with majestic mountain gorillas, the journey itself is filled with breath-taking scenery. From mist-covered mountains to lush green forests, every step is a visual treat.
We are always heart warmed to hear from past clients. Judy has recently sent us some more of her photos from her adventures in Uganda from a few years ago. She has enjoyed spending some time reflecting on her trip by reminiscing on her photos.
After an exhilarating day of trekking, indulge in the delicious local cuisine. You may very well be welcomed back from your trek with nibbles to enjoy before freshening up ready for a tasty dinner.
Zama and Ben have just returned from a magnificent trip to Rwanda, where they trekked with the Gorillas and Golden Monkeys.
“Thank you so much for organising such an incredible trip! I only have good things to say, and Eric, our guide, was fantastic”

“Thanks for a perfect trip!
I have planned many trips before with various travel agents and I must say Amanda was truly one of the best agents I have had the pleasure to interact with.
Our trip (with quite a complicated itinerary: we changed two countries, 3 national parks) went off without a hitch.
All the arrangements (flights, hotels, transfers, activities) went as planned.
What made the trip to go so smoothly - was Amanda’s invaluable advice, thoughtfulness, precise attention to all the details. The hotels she recommended were excellent! Hotel locations were ideal!
Having digital itinerary in hand was super helpful as well. I also really appreciated the guidance documents (with abundance of useful info) - huge help.
Would highly recommend The Gorilla Safari Company for your travels.
When out on safari with us you will always travel in style with the ability to view the abundance of wildlife, birdlife, and the immense vistas from all angles.
Binoculars are an essential item for Gorilla, Chimp and Golden Monkey Trekking!
Meet the golden wonders of the jungle! These charming creatures really can light up the forest with their shimmering coats and playful antics.
If you are planning on going Gorilla Trekking, we would also highly recommend building in a Golden Monkey Trek. Get in touch!
Cheeky!
Happily basking in the dappled evening sun.
Embrace the serenity at Lake Matanda, Uganda where you can canoe through the tranquil waters, surrounded by stunning scenery. This is a great place to go and stay after a Gorilla Trek.
“Tracking Chimps through the dense forest I felt giddy, slightly nervous, exhilarated and was stunned by the noisy sounds as they were communicating to each other”
We are often asked which we would recommend – gorilla trekking or chimp trekking. Either experience, to be fair, is extraordinary as they both give you such a fascinating insight into these primates and their natural habitat.

Discover the magic of Golden Monkeys! Embark on a captivating journey through Uganda and /or Rwanda and encounter the enchanting golden monkeys in their natural habitat.

Chimpanzees have the most wonderful wild spirit in their natural habitat, as well as observing Gorillas we can arrange a chimp trek too.
Chimpanzees are known for their inquisitive nature, always exploring their lush forest homes with curiosity and agility. Just like us chimps thrive in social groups, forming strong bonds, playing, grooming, and communicating through a variety of vocalizations and gestures.
Watching their playful antics will leave you smiling.
Supporting chimpanzee conservation helps protect not just these fascinating primates, but also their habits and the diverse wildlife that they call their forest home.
Uganda, Madagascar, and Zanzibar have recently secured their places among the world’s top 13 travel destinations, as acknowledged by the esteemed international travel guide, Bradt Guides.
We have extensive knowledge and expertise in all 3 of these countries (and many more in Eastern Africa!) so why not have a chat with us to plan your next vacation.
Discover the wonders of the Mountain Gorillas:
They live in close-knit family groups led by a dominant silverback.
They share strong emotional connection, often displaying care towards one another.
Despite their powerful appearance, mountain gorillas are herbivores, eating mainly leaves, stems, fruits, and bamboo shoots.
Sadly, they are critically endangered, with only around 1,000 left in the wild. Gorillas are incredibly intelligent, displaying problem-solving skills, using tools, and exhibiting complex social behaviours within their groups.

They can be found in the southern part of the ishasha sector of the Queen Elizabeth National Park in Uganda. We would love to craft a trip for you to include seeing these amongst all the other gems that Uganda has to offer (see link in our bio) photo credits to Julie Eliason #TheSafariGuy
Aref and Emma had a fantastic safari to Rwanda and Uganda. On arrival they thoroughly enjoyed visiting the Nyamirambo Women’s Centre, a Rwandan NGO, launched in 2077 18 Rwandese women made it their mission to address gender-based violence, gender inequality and discrimination. Today, they provide education and vocational training to women. Aref and Emma joined a walking tour and had a traditional cookery class. They then loved their stay at the stunning Mount Gahinga Lodge, with beautiful hand build bandas reflecting the magic and traditions of the Bufimbira people. From here they were able to trek the Mountain Gorillas and Golden monkeys. #TheSafariGuy Volcanoes Safaris - Luxury Lodges in Uganda and Rwanda Nyamirambo women's center
