Reviews
Professional, knowledgeable and courteous
Big Apes Africa is a top choice for safari bookings in Uganda. The manager Peter warmly welcomed me to the country as soon as my flight landed in Uganda. Then my guide Gerald took me on a safari journey that's once in a lifetime experience. I would highly recommend Big Apes Africa to anyone seeking a memorable safari tour in Uganda!

🦍 Gorilla Sights Safaris 🇺🇬
今天我們參與了一場超刺激的金剛大猩猩追蹤之旅！誰能想到，在烏干達的叢林中，居然住著超過1000隻金剛大猩猩🦍，而它們在世界上只分布於三個國家：烏干達🇺🇬、剛果🇨🇬、盧安達🇷🇼。但由於剛果近年內戰頻繁，探險旅程更顯珍貴！
走進山林深處，這不僅是一場觀光，更是一次充滿愛心的自然之旅💗。我們有幸拜訪了一個由17隻成員組成的猩猩家族，裡面有好多活潑可愛的小寶寶！他們的互動超級有趣，真是讓人看得又感動又歡樂。
最令人激動的是，我們居然可以近距離觀察他們的生活，距離甚至不到1米！那雙深邃的眼神，毛茸茸的身影，每一秒都充滿了震撼和溫暖！❤️
這次探險不僅幫室友圓了多年的夢，也讓我自己深刻感受到這些大自然守護者的魅力。如果你也有機會，千萬別錯過這令人驚艷的體驗！🌿🦍
🦍 Gorilla Sights Safaris 🇺🇬
Today, we embarked on an exhilarating gorilla trekking adventure! Who would have thought that over 1,000 mountain gorillas 🦍 call the jungles of Uganda home? These incredible creatures are found in only three countries worldwide: Uganda 🇺🇬, Congo 🇨🇬, and Rwanda 🇷🇼. With Congo’s recent history of conflict, this experience feels even more precious and unique.
Venturing deep into the forest, this wasn’t just a sightseeing tour—it was a heartfelt journey into nature 💗. We had the privilege of visiting a gorilla family of 17 members, including several playful and adorable little ones. Their interactions were so fascinating, leaving us both deeply moved and joyfully entertained.
The most thrilling part? We were able to observe their lives up close—sometimes from less than a meter away! Those soulful eyes, their furry forms—every moment was filled with awe and warmth. ❤️
This adventure not only fulfilled my roommate’s long-time dream but also left me profoundly captivated by the charm of these guardians of the wild. I also want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Andrew for all his help and support over the past few days. His efforts made this journey even more special and unforgettable. If you ever get the chance, don’t miss out on this breathtaking experience! 🌿🦍

Amazing 4 day guided tour, once in a lifetime experience
I did a 4 day tour in Rwanda and Uganda. Highlights were the Golden Monkey trekking and Gorilla trekking. These are experiences I will never forget. Our tour guide Brian was excellent. His knowledge on the animals was great and was very polite throughout the 4 days. Highly recommend this tour.

Terrific, personal service.
The service Andrew provided was top notch! We started by just booking a gorilla trek and then added a trip to Queen Elizabeth Park, 2 game drives and a boat tour on the channel and a ride back to Kigali. Andrew seamlessly communicated with our hotel staff and coordinated everything to fit together perfectly. He took care of the smallest detail, including water and adapters for our phones in the van.
