Gorillas, chimpanzees and golden monkeys
S2G Tours & Travels Rwanda Gorillas Was an excellent tour operator. The guide/driver Dan was with me the entire eight day trip. He was friendly and helpful and professional and his driving was always safe and careful. He assisted me in going through immigration at the Rwanda/ Uganda border. We were supposed to see gorillas in DRC but with consultation with Aron, the coordinator, it was decided that with the rebels overrunning Goma and getting close to the border, we shouldn’t take a chance of crossing into DRC. Aron was very involved in rearranging the itinerary on the fly, changing to see the gorillas in Uganda instead of DRC and going to a beautiful hotel on a lake with many islands. I saw everything that was promised just not as set out initially but as they say, this is Africa and you must be flexible and adaptable and not rigid and adamant. We spent an hour with a group of mountain gorillas. They were gentle and habitualised to humans. It was magical. Overall it was an excellent eight day tour and S2G Tours & Travels Rwanda provided everything that I wanted.
Great experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.
We spent seven fabulous days with Safari 2 Gorilla Tours in December 2024, and we recommend their services to all travellers wanting to see the wild treasures of East Africa.
Booking the tour online was simple. The company is highly rated, all their charges are clearly displayed, explained and fair, and their response times are remarkably fast.
We felt secure and confident throughout the booking process, and in specifying special dietary requirements.
Our guide for the adventure, Aron, is a wonderful travelling companion.
Knowledgeable, kind and willing to go that extra mile to make our trip unforgettable, Aron immediately made us feel safe and informed.
The 4x4 vehicle for our tour was remarkably comfortable - which was appreciated during long legs of the journey - and the roof opens to give you amazing views and a great vantage spot for taking photos.
We saw all the animals we'd hoped to see on the tour, much of which was down to Aron. He's obviously well-liked and respected in the guiding community, and is linked into a network that shares information on locations of interesting creatures.
Aron was also able to get us into some incredible spots to take photos – he's confident behind the wheel, and knows how to a good angle for that perfect snap.
The highlight of our tour was our trip to see the gorillas in Uganda. We got closer than we ever expected, and the tour was fun and well organised.
We were heartened that Aron joined us for the gorilla trek – not because it was part of his job, buy because he loves wildlife and didn't want to miss an opportunity to get close to some of nature's greatest marvels.
As Aron was as enthusiastic as us about the experiences we were having, it made the trip even more exciting!

It was my first trip to africa with mr kabuye and he was amazing in scheduling my whole trip
Great Experience
Our recent gorilla trekking adventure in Uganda was truly unforgettable, thanks to the expertise and passion of our guide, Aron. From the moment we met, it was clear we were in the hands of someone deeply knowledgeable and committed to providing an enriching experience.
Aron was incredibly organized, ensuring we had all the information we needed before setting off. They provided a detailed briefing about what to expect during the trek, safety tips, and the fascinating behaviors of the gorillas we were about to encounter.
The trek itself was both challenging and rewarding, and Aron made it manageable for everyone in the group, accommodating various fitness levels with patience and encouragement. Their ability to read the forest and locate the gorilla families was nothing short of remarkable, and their respect for the wildlife and conservation efforts was amazing.
If you’re considering gorilla trekking, I cannot recommend Aron highly enough. Their expertise, professionalism, and passion for wildlife make them an outstanding guide for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Helpful and efficient
I booked with Safari 2 Gorillas very last minute to do the gorilla hike in Mgahinga NP on Christmas Day. Aron was really prompt with all the communication, and I'm so glad I paid extra with him (vs just booking the permit myself) because he was so helpful in solving some problems I had (like my visa not being approved quickly and also making me lunch when everything was closed on Christmas Day).
My guide was also super friendly and easy to chat with. Everything they communicated would happen on the day went ahead exactly the plan! We saw the beautiful gorillas and there were two sets of couples in my group who had also done the gorilla trek in bwindi, and both said they thought Mgahinga was better for its openness!
