Big Apes Africa Made our Dream Come True!
5/5

Wow, what an unforgettable experience with Big Apes Safari! This trip was everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we set foot in Uganda, it was pure magic. We saw an incredible array of animals, including chimpanzees, elephants, giraffes, crocodiles, and a mesmerizing variety of birds. Watching the sunset and sunrise over the savannah was breathtaking, and it felt like we were in a movie.

Our guide, Gerald, was exceptional! He was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure my mom and I had the best time possible. His passion for the wildlife, the country's culture and his caring nature made our trip truly special.

A huge shoutout to Peter, the agency owner, who meticulously organized every detail of our adventure. Seeing the gorillas in the wild was a lifelong dream for both me and my mom, and Peter made it all happen seamlessly.

This trip was everything we hoped for and more, packed with adventure and wonder. We absolutely loved Uganda and can't thank Peter, Gerald, and the whole Big Apes Safari team enough for making our dreams come true. We highly recommend it!

It was a perfectly rounded tour, seeing all big 5 animals with our awesome guide (Tim).
5/5

Our recent 10 day safari trip with Big Apes Africa was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were treated to a truly private and diversice adventure. The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly seeing all of the Big 5 animals in their natural habitat – a dream come true.

Our guide, Tim, was exceptional. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife and especially birds, combined with his friendly and approachable demeanor, made our journey even more enjoyable. Tim’s passion for the animals and the land was evident, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience.

The accommodations were comfortable and well-appointed, providing a perfect blend of luxury and immersion in nature. Each day was filled with exciting game drives, breathtaking landscapes, and unforgettable moments.

We highly recommend Big Apes Africa for anyone looking to experience the beauty and wonder of an African safari. This trip exceeded all our expectations and left us with memories that will last a lifetime.

Wonderful tour guide, well organised and good value for money
5/5

My daughter and I booked the 10 day Best of Uganda tour. Our tour guide Tim was fantastic. His passion and knowledge of animals and birds was inspiring and we felt like we were travelling with a friend rather than a tour guide. Highlights included the game drives, Murchison Falls, chimps, river cruises to see hippos, birds and elephants and the walk with the Rhinos. The most incredible experience was undoubtedly the gorilla trek. We hired a porter to help us on the trek and it was the best decision we made as she helped us navigate the often difficult terrain. We were so close to our gorilla family, it was truly amazing. The accommodations were mostly very good with friendly and helpful staff. Another highlight was to see local life as we drove through the villages, and a visit to a local primary school at Ishasha. Tim, we can’t thank you enough for a wonderful trip.

Truly incredible experience seeing primates in Uganda!
5/5

Our 4 day excursion with Big apes was nothing short of incredible. Seeing chimps and gorillas was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Peter met with us the night before we left to welcome us and our safari guide/driver, Ezra, was very informative and receptive to our wants during the tour. All of the lodges we stayed at were clean with great food offerings, which were included. Would not hesitate to recommend using Big Apes Africa!

Friendly, helpful, well organised and committed to providing a great experience.
5/5

Great Apes provided us with the experience of a lifetime. Our driver/guide Brian was a great companion for our 10 day safari. He was very knowledgeable about the animals we saw and the places we visited. He was a careful and safe driver and we felt very comfortable driving with him.
The itinerary included all the best that Uganda has to offer but even so we only scratched the surface of what Uganda has to offer. We will certainly visit Uganda again and we won’t hesitate to use Great Apes again. In particular we will ask for Brian to guide us.
