Wonderful, astonishing and beautiful Uganda
In August 2021 we had a two weeks holiday trip through Uganda with Big Apes Africa and Peter as a guide.
It was an astonishing experience, we have seen wonderful landscapes and a big number of the most beautiful animals including lions, elephants, zebras, gnus and a variety of birds.
Two of the most astonishing experiences where the walks through Chimbale National Parks to visit the Chimpanses and the trip into Bwindi Impenetrable Forest were we had the chance to watch a Gorilla family from close range. It was a breathtaking experience and one that we never will forget in our whole life.
Traveling Uganda we absolutely can recommend and the best way is choosing Big Apes Africa.
All the Best

Peter was an incredible guide! Very professional.
Had the most incredible time with Big Apes Africa! Peter is the most incredible guide, had a lot of fun on the road with him and of course visiting the most beautiful spots with him! Gorilla trekking was so well organised thanks to Peter as well as the Golden Monkeys and I was able to get a fantastic group for both trekking! Tour was so well organised and accommodation was fantastic! I am already looking at going again to do some of the other safaris which they do as loved every minute of this tour!
Thank you so much to Peter, and Big Apes Africa for the incredible service! I look forward to see you soon!

Fantastic - helped me achieve one of my bucket list items and more
Big Apes was a fantastic selection for my gorilla trekking experience! The entire process was seamless thanks to Peter, from pickup to drop off to the gorillas to the beautiful Lake. Highlights of the trip that would only be possible thanks to this tour would be the seamless adventure to the trek, the food along the way, and both peaceful accommodations at the trekking site (which was very close to the trek starting point) and at the Lake.

Lifetime Experience
The decision to travel with Biga Apes Africa is one I would do over and over.
I booked online and from the first email, I knew this was the company I was to travel with.
Perfect communication from their office and perfect organisation of the whole tour.
My guide made me feel at home and he knew literally everything from birds to the animals. I highly recommend Big Apes Africa without hesitation.

*I highly recommend Big Apes Africa*
My trip to Uganda was well arranged without leaving a single detail. Our guide was friendly and knew many things. My experience was the best I could imagine. From the wildlife to the people and the food I had not tasted in a very long time.
During booking, my contact person Peter answered all the questions with a lot of patience.
I highly recommend Big Apes Africa for anyone planning to visit Uganda!

Safari tour Uganda
We did a 8-day trip with Big Apes Africa, where we visited:
- Murchisson falls
- Queen Elisabeth park
- Lake Bunyonyi
- Lake MBuro
Everything was taken care of by Peter, our guide.
The only thing we had to do is enjoy.
During the drives in the different parks, Peter demonstrated his skills as a nature guide. He's very knowledgeable on the wildlife in the parks.
He's open for input and tries to deliver the best experience.
I would like to thank Big Apes for the magnificent time we spent in the Pearl of Africa.
Thanks !

Great value for money creation
I would certainly recommend Big Apes. Our guide knew a lot about all the different animals (even the birds, which is certainly a plus) and has a real spotters eye. He is a kind man, that wasn't all over the place the whole tour. Accomodations were all nice aswell.

Amazing gorilla and chimp tour
Hi all, we went gorilla and chimp tracking with big apes Africa and it was amazing, from the start Peter was really helpful in planning and answering all my questions he also got back to me straight away every time. We was picked up by Sam the man are guide who was amazing, really nice guy and very knowledgeable, he was always going out of his way to show us animals while on the road and telling us parts of the history ect, the ride was a landcruiser very comfortable as it was a lot of driving between the national parks, accommodations were loverly as was all the food. I would highly recommend big apes Africa everything was arranged professionally and at a great coast aswell
We had an amazing times hanging with the gorillas and chimps one of the best experiences ever.

Gorilla, Chimpa and Golden Monkey Tracking
Big Apes Africa is a professional agency. The did a great job designing the tour accordingly to our expectations (both in terms of experience and budget). Roland was the best guide. He was supporting all our needs sharing his knowledge and providing valuable recommendations. We did Gorilla (Bwindi) , chimpanzee (karinzu) and golden monkey (Mgahinga) tracking. They were all amazing with a preference for Gorilla and Golden Monkey. We were a little bit unlucky with Chimpa. We saw 2 of them from distance and the track was quite short (just 2.5 hour). We started our Tour in Kigali and Peter made the transfer to Uganda during day one. We thought the first day would have been transfer only while Peter organized big surprises. We did a couple of stops in spot of interest including boating on the lake Bunyonyi on local canoe.
