Bucket list experience
I was planning a last minute trip and had all but given up on being able to see mountain gorillas while I was working in Kigali, but Peter and Big Apes Africa came through and made my dream a reality. My trip included golden monkeys in Volcanoes NP, mountain gorillas in Bwindi NP, and relaxing at Lake Bunyonyi. Peter handled everything very professionally and I was happy to have the logistics in his hands. The hotels that were chosen were all excellent, much better than I had been expecting. As a solo traveler, I also felt the trip was great value for money. Peter had great conversation on the car rides and I learned a lot from him. Overall, I would highly recommend Big Apes Africa.

Big Apes Africa Made our Dream Come True!
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!

Incredible experience Gorilla trekking
We had a truly incredible experience trekking with the gorillas in Bwindi with Big Apes. The company very kindly accommodated both a change of date and a last minute change of drop off for us which we really appreciated. The accommodation arranged for us was exceptional and of course the experience trekking with the mountain gorillas was absolutely unforgettable.
