Nothing was too much trouble, wonderful experience
The trip exceeded expectations...which were pretty high. Courteous friendly staff, efficient and a pleasure to be with. I have now visited three times and have recommended friends and family to follow in my footsteps...they also loved it.

Fantastic first visit to Uganda with A&A Gorilla Tours
Our visit to Uganda was an experience of a lifetime thanks to the personal service provided by A&A Gorilla Tours. Our driver, Steven, showed us real Uganda and took great care of us. Our adventure exceeded all expectations and left us with many memories and a desire to return to Africa. Thank you!

It was really enjoyable!
I had a great time, lovely country, great guides and of course the highlight was the tracking to the gorillas!

13-day Uganda safari & gorilla tour
In our opinion Uganda is underestimated in terms of a safari venue. We have been on 3 previous safaris, Kenya/Tanzania, Botswana/Zambia and South Africa. Uganda is right up there with the best. We only went to see the gorillas, but we were pleasantly surprised at the other animals we saw. We particularly liked the Murchison Falls National Park, a lovely location where the Nile is forced through a narrow gap and we saw a whole range of wild animals including elephant, giraffe, buffalo & lions. The gorilla tracking was a wonderful experience, we were lucky enough to find them quite quickly and our family had 3 silverbacks, which we saw all at once. The accommodation and food were fine. Our driver/guide, Paul, was excellent, we felt safe and well informed. We were the only two on the safari and it was fantastic to have the bus to ourselves. We could open the roof to get up and down to take photos whenever we chose and we could set our own pace. Having now been on two independent safaris, we have found it is far better than being on a group tour and no more expensive. We used Aga & Aba Gorilla Tours Ltd and we would thoroughly recommend them.

A fantastic experience guided by passionate people who know their stuff
I have been dreaming about visiting the mountain gorillas for nearly 20 years and finally I got to do it. A & A Gorilla Tours made the whole experience fantastic and I will never forget it. From the moment I landed in Entebbe they were there smiling to meet me and welcome me to Uganda. All the hotels/lodges we stayed in were lovely and during the long drives our guide Paul told us lots of interesting facts.
It was like a long safari drive through Uganda where we stopped to see large birds, sample the local food or watch the sun rise over Lake Victoria. Paul would have dinner with us and brief us on the next day so we knew what was going on and would speak to hotel staff on our behalf if we had any quires. When the local children were singing and dancing for us Paul would tell us what they were doing so we understood it more. Also, we got back to Entebbe the day after seeing the gorillas and Paul took us to the Uganda Reptile Village which was very interesting; then to a local restaurant.
I could not have wished for a more amazing experience and would highly recommend using A & A Gorillas Tours.

No go Operator!!
I got offer from this company by email. On arrival in Kampala they changed the itininerary at once and gave me lower value als before. The guide Erick was lazy, almost driving to fast and not safe, coming late for departure, not want to stand up early in morning. I missing completly the knowlodge about how to make a tour with foreign guests.
May be other guides are better, but please never go with Erick!

greatly exceeded expectations
From the moment we walked out of the airport until we were dropped off to depart, our stay was incredibly well managed throughout.
Our guide Paul was amazing the entire time, from his suggestions for activities to his selection of restaurants to his extremely knowledgeable narration of our game drives.
The accommodations selected for us ranged from good to excellent with most being towards the latter. The service, food, accommodations and views were consistently exceptional at every place we stayed.
While the company is named for Gorilla tours, the Gorilla trek was ultimately a small part of what was ultimately an amazing and varied encounter with a wide range of amazing wildlife and environments.
At the end all four of us were very sad to leave such an incredible country and our incredible guide, Paul.
