Our Guide Ashiraf was amazing, really funny and made our holidays!
If you go on a 2 weeks safari you are always together with your guide, so he really influences your experience. And we had a really great trip thanks to our guide Ashiraf!
He took care for us, drove really safe, made sure to give us always the best experience, that we are never hungry or thirsty or have to pee, that we always get the best spot and view. He was really funny, charismatic and empathic! And on top he documented our whole trip with his camera and made really nice pictures. He knows every park by heart and can explain all the different animal behaviors. He regularly checked up with his manager that everything is going well and was always flexible to adjust to our plans.
Everything went smooth and we highly recommend Primate World Safari and especially our guide Ashiraf!

Fantastic to spend time with a mountain gorilla family!
The highlight of the trip was the hour we were able to spend with a mountain gorilla family. They were only a few meters away but ignored us, so cool! Also tree climbing lions and chimps later in the trip.
The guide was great, as were the accommodations.
One warning: this particular itinerary is condensed and an uncomfortably large percentage of waking hours was spent going from place to place (with lots of bouncing, especially when on dirt roads). If this bothers you, then extend the number of days!

Amazing Animal and Africa Experience!
Primate World Safari provided an incredible safari adventure. Geofry, our guide and driver, provided warm, safe, professional yet personal care for every aspect of our 11 day journey through amazing Uganda. Accommodations were top-notch with eco friendly places, many solar powered. Each lodge created a true Uganda ambiance, with comfy beds, in separate bunglows (except in Bwindi Gorilla Park), and local materials for finishes, dining areas, lounges, and sitting areas. Geofry tailored out tour to our unique wants. We enjoyed game drives, gorilla trekking, chimpanzee trekking, community tours full of a peek into the life of the locals, markets, and other truly Ugandan side trips. All locals guides and rangers offered knowledge of the animals, birds, plants, and local area with pride in their country and their animals. Food at the lodges and stops on the road was of excellent quality with options for local foods or more international fare, with accommodations for gluten-free. My favorite meal was matooke (plantain) with chicken. All food is prepared fresh with local items. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. All employees at lodges and restaurants displayed top notch customer service. Jackson the owner offered help with a visa glitch. Truly, the best safari company for an amazing safari experience where we became family, not customers.

Amazing tour, professionally run, and totally inclusive.
I am a world traveler and this tour was a highlight amongst my travel experiences. From the booking process through to the trip end, I was more than satisfied with the communication, service, safety, itinerary, and - without doubt - it was worth what paid for. It was a fabulous combination of safari, cultural activities, and active adventures. Our guide/driver, Geoffrey was fabulous. He was knowledgeable, planned and organized all the activities seamlessly and treated us like family. Nothing was too much to ask (and receive). An exceptionally professional and thoughtful guide! The lodges we stayed in were fabulous - nice accommodations and delicious/plentiful food. While the gorilla trekking was a highlight, each day was an adventure including cultural exposure (community visits) and animal sightings. Geoffrey made sure we saw all the animals possible (leopard, tree lions, tons of giraffe, elephant, hippos, cape buffalo and many others, plus an amazing chimpanzee trekking experience). Geoffrey also seemed to know all the other guides and lodge staff along the way helping make everything seamless. All and all, I loved the experience and my hats off to Jackson (manager) and Geoffrey for making this an extra special trip. I highly recommend Primate World Safaris to anyone looking to travel to Uganda. Whether gorilla trekking is on your bucket list or not, this trip is not to be missed
