Amazing!
The experience we had was fantastic, meeting the gorillas is unbelievable- once in a lifetime...
The service we've got from Safari 2 Gorilla Tours was perfect- from the beginning all the communication with Aron was very clear and comfortable. When we arrive Martin the driver was waiting for us, he was very nice, professional and he took really good care of us all the way to the safari.

Truly amazing experience!
Aron communicated to use via whatsapp which made it so much easier - he was very efficient with his responses and happy to answer the countless questions we had before we even booked the trip! After booking, he laid out a clear itinerary and followed up to ensure we were aware of the process etc and also put us in touch with our driver, Martin beforehand.
Martin was very prompt with picking us up from our hotel. He drove us from Kigali to Bwindi National Park, helping with the border crossing. He was great company and knowledgeable about Kigali, Rwanda, Uganda etc and happy to share his wisdom.
The tour itself is once in a lifetime experience - we trekked for about 2 hours before finding the gorillas. The guide & porters, again, were extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
Thanks Safari 2 Gorillas Tours!

Gorilla trekking is an amazing experience which I recommend for anyone going to East Africa.
We had an unforgettable experience gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. We did a three day trek and we enjoyed every minute of it. Safari 2 Gorilla Tours was flawless and I really enjoyed working with them. Aaron made all the arrangements for us and he was a pleasure to work with. I would email him at all hours of the day and he responded promptly and pleasantly. He answered all of my questions and he went out of his way to help us make our gorilla trek a memorable experience. Martin was our guide and driver and he was a lot of fun to be with. His driving was perfect, he was flexible with our schedule and he too went out of his way to make sure we saw everything we wanted to see. Thank you to Safari 2 Gorilla Tours for giving us an unforgettable experience!

Everything went very smooth from the beginning to the end.... Wonderful safari and hiking trip!
Already from the beginning I had a good feeling when I started communicating with Safari 2 Gorilla Tours. I send them an email and inquired about a Gorilla tracking permit in Uganda. Aron answered very quickly to my questions and we continued communicating by whatsup. The communication was fast, clear and transparent. He made me a proposal about a 6 day Gorilla, safari and hiking tour in Uganda with transfers from and to Kigali. I told him which places I wanted to visit and which activities I was interested in. (lake bunyonyi, gorillas, queen elizabeth national park, game drives, hiking up mount muhabura)
At the end I had a costumized tour proposal stating exactly which costs were included, which were not and in which guest houses I was going to stay. The price seemed also very accurate and fair.
The tour itself was totally matching my expectations. I was picked up at the agreed time and place in Kigali by a very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly driver, Godwin, with a good humour. He cared about all the paper works with the national parks, the border crossings and guesthouses. Basically we followed the planned itinerary but it was no problem to change or amend things spontaniously.
The 6 days were packed with stunning landscapes, lots of wildlife (we managed to see the sleeping lions on the fig trees and also a leopard), the once in a liftetime experience to observe Gorillas, an adventurous sweaty hike up Mount Muhabura, as well as many nice encounters with local people.
All in all I had a really great, inspiring time in Uganda and Ruanda thanks to Safari 2 Gorilla Tours. I can totally recommend Arond and his team.

Trip of a lifetime
I was very satisfied with Safari 2 Gorilla Tours. Already when planning the trip, they were very helpful and adapted the tour to my wishes. I travelled solo and read a lot of good reviews about them before booking the tour with them and I was not disappointed. Martin my guide was great. There was a bit of a mix up with some of the bookings for the accommodations but he always managed to solve them quickly and smoothly. I learned a lot about the people, the different cultures, tribes and animals of Ruanda and Uganda, the two countries we visited. Martin always made sure that I was comfortable and that I had a good time during the trip. I definitely would recommend them if you want to explore Uganda and see the amazing diversity in animals and landscapes this country has to offer. It was honestly a trip of a lifetime (during which I fell in love with Uganda).
