Overall rating

In brief : Lush scenery,rugged hiking, wonderful people, fantastic experience ! The trackers do a remarkable job as do the guides and porters ! Shout out to Obit , the head guide who is so generous with his wealth of knowledge about this territory. And thank the porters for their help especially Robert, Joseph, and Agnes.

“Great Tour Company, thrilling gorilla trekking in the mist in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest”
I and my friends were overwhelmed by the exhilarating tour to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Under Charis Uganda Safaris Ltd, we went to Trek the gentle giant - the mountain Gorilla - we were professionally handled by our tour guide Joseph Olupot who was friendly and helpful. The Gorilla Trekking was well organised and the park rangers were magnificent. Should you desire to have a great experience while on holiday, consider Uganda and Charis Uganda Safaris Ltd.

Bwindi was an excellent, if expensive, experience. I'm often asked if it was "worth it" and honestly that's a tough question. The price tag is really high, no doubt. It was an incredible day though and I justify it to myself as voting for conservation.

A Truly Unique Experience
Overall rating
5/5

Tracking gorillas in Bwindi was unlike any other travel experience I've had. Being just feet away from gorillas that could easily hurt you with a swipe or a toss was absolutely amazing. Since they are accustomed to humans watching them, and we had guides and security, at no moment was I fearful. Though the cost is very high for one hour of viewing, when you understand how many gorillas there are left in the world and where the money goes - it makes it all the more worthwhile. I stayed at Mahogany Springs resort right outside of the park, and it was amazing. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the hotel had a great food, was clean and the views were fantastic.

A big highlight to be amongst the Mountain Gorillas, hard walking at times (steep, slippery) but then to see the amazing Gorillas up close made all the uphill work worth every step.
