Great experience at Lake Mburo
We had a wonderful and very long day at Lake Mburo. Everything was very well organised. Sam is a very good and informative guide, a safe and experienced driver and we really enjoyed talking to him about Uganda's wonderful nature and so much more. Thank you again for a great experience with Katsam Adventures!
A Wonderful and Engaging Experience
My daughter and I undertook a three day safari starting and finishing in Kigali, Rwanda. The trip was administered efficiently through email and WhatsApp. Our driver, Medard added to our enjoyment with his knowledgeable narative and engaging laugh.
A brief tour of Kigali included the Belgian Peacekeepers Memorial and the National Genocide Meemorial. A sobering reminder of mans inhumanity.
Our Gorilla Trek took place in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda. Here we were hosted in a community camp and took time to visit the pygmy community and hear about their lifestyle. The gorilla trek was amazing and the National Park staff were professional and knowledgeable. Much to her delight a juvenile gorilla ran up to my daughter and slapped her leg. Magic.
Our final day was spent visiting with Golden Monkeys in Rwanda before being dropped off at our hotel.
I can thoroughly recommend the trip we did. The gorilla experience in Uganda is simple but you feel a part of the gorilla ecosystem. A mistake I made was not having enough cash for tips. These are paid to porters (if you chose to take them), the guides and the cultural groups who perform for you. It is best to have them prepared in advance.
Overall we loved this trip, it will surely be a lifelong memory.
Unforgettable Safari and Trekking Experience
I recently went on a fantastic safari, combined with gorilla and golden monkey trekking, and it was truly an unforgettable adventure. The entire trip was expertly organized by Richard, who ensured everything from permits to accommodations was seamless and stress-free. His attention to detail and thorough planning allowed me to fully enjoy the experience without worrying about any logistics.
A special mention goes to Medard, whose passion and dedication made the trip even more memorable. Medard was not only incredibly reliable and professional but also brought a genuine enthusiasm that enhanced every part of our journey. His deep knowledge of the wildlife, along with his friendly personality, made the time on the road enjoyable and educational. He was always on time, well-prepared, and made sure I was comfortable and safe throughout the trip.
Thanks to this amazing team, I had one of the best travel experiences of my life. If you’re planning a safari or trekking trip, I highly recommend both Richard and Medard for their outstanding service and expertise!
Efficiency and good comms
Had a great gorilla trek starting in Kigali and dropped off at Lake Bunyonyi. Our contact Richard was very responsive in planning the arrangements and the trip itself was great. Our guide was amazing and full of great information about Rwanda and Uganda and nature as well as sharing his own experiences -:thanks Medard. And the gorilla trek was out of this world, obviously!
3 Day Gorilla and Golden Monkey Trekking
I booked the 3 day gorilla and golden monkey trekking tour with Katsam in early August 2024. Booking was easy and Richard was always prompt on responding. Overall the tour was a great experience and my guide and driver Medard was very friendly and easy to talk to. In the morning of my gorilla trekking day i had woken up an hour late due to the time difference in Rwanda and Uganda but Medard had already been to the park to reserve my spot and still waited patiently for me to have breakfast, an absolute lifesaver! I would definitely recommend doing your Gorilla trekking tour with Katsam and am looking forward to booking another tour with them when i return.
