Amazing and beyond expectations!
This is our 3rd safari in Africa.
After our 2nd safari to Kenya/Tanzania last Aug booked via a Singapore local tour agency, I decided to book directly with a tour agent in Africa to save some money. I am glad that I have found safaribookings.com and very pleased to engage Gorilla Link Tours/Caroline Amutuhaire to plan our dream holiday in Uganda. We, a family of 5 adults, had a wonderful, amazing and beyond expectations holiday.
I am thankful that Caroline, our driver guide Arshley, and her other staff from Gorilla Link Tours were at the airport to receive us on the very 1st day of our trip. She and her team are super friendly, hospitable and make us feel at home upon landing in a foreign land.
The game drives were alright, not many wild animals to see, unlike Kenya and Tanzania. However, the Chimpanzees and Gorillas trekking were amazing and is really once-a lifetime experience that should not be missed. The trekking was tiring but we managed to catch up with the families within the 1st 2 hours of our hikes. The park rangers, porters and chimpanzees/gorillas seekers are very professional, friendly and encouraging - keep saying nice and comforting words to us so that we could press on with the journey to have precious 1 hour with the primates. The weather in the day was nice, sunny and comfortable. Nights were cooling/cold because most of our accommodations were around the lakes, fall, mountains and volcanoes.
Although there were hiccups throughout the trip (traffic offence for speeding on 3rd day, glitches like broken taps/sinks, power failure, leaking roof, etc in our accommodations), we were still happy and enjoyed the many beautiful places Uganda has to offer. In my opinion, everyone should go to Uganda, the people are friendly and amazing, food is very good too, and most importantly it is not dangerous.
Thank you Gorilla Link Tours for the good service and friendship.
We will definitely come back to Africa and to Gorilla Link to plan our next adventure.

Truly a one of kind, amazing experience!
It’s winter in July so it’s a little cool in the early mornings. However, the wildlife is amazing. It’s very scenic and we have a great tour guide with Deep Forest Safaris. Samuel and his team provided a one of kind experience. We always felt comfortable, safe and in good company. Truly recommend Kenya for safari and DFS!! Thank you

Absolutely amazing. Such a beautiful place.
Everything about Tanzania was lovely. I have not been on Safari anywhere else but I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is going on Safari for the first time.
The wildlife and scenery was amazing. It was incredible to see so much seemingly unscathed land in one moment in Serengeti National Park.
The infrastructure surrounding the tourism industry seemed well organized, inside and outside of the government.

If You search for THE BEST - You are on the right place...
Kenya was my dream.
At the point of trip to that amazing country, search for perfect agent was needed. Paul was found and contacted. I think I never found someone so friendly, helpful, and just - there to answer on ANY question, and many any worry you have be gone.
As I had whole day in Nairobi before my Safari started, Paul took me to see Nairobi and explained to me most important things about the place. I truly enjoyed it!
Next day, early morning, Paul came with Dan just, our driver to be for next 5 days / 4 nights safari, just on time.
Everything after was amazing. Safari, service in camps where we stayed, people... Dan made sure we learn a lot about National parks we visited, about animals we saw, about tribes, and also to answer my curious questions about everything else in Kenya.
I will always be thankful for Paul and KET for making my trip to Kenya so memorable! And I am sure in one thing. Whenever I decide to go back, I will not need to search for new agent. I already have one :)
Fantastic scenery, lots of wildlife, and warm and welcoming people
There was lots of wildlife, much more abundant than we'd expected albeit with no lions or leopards; a small disappointment but not particularly significant in the overall scheme of things. The scenery was outstanding both on the safari itself and travelling to and from Kampala to Murchison Falls National Park. Our guide was knowledgeable, a careful driver, and flexible when we needed to adjust our itinerary. We had good conversations with him about our different experiences. The accommodation was a good standard in a beautiful setting and the food was fine and able to meet the requirements of vegans and vegetarians. The hike from the river to the top of Murchison Falls was memorable and one of many highlights of our 3-day safari.

One great journey to see the wildebeest migration and river crossing.
Weather in August was perfect, with plenty of animals to watch. Accommodations and food were generally good. Our driver and tour guide was superb. Highlights were the 4 times of wildebeest river crossing we saw during 4-day stay in Mara River area.

Safari was Amazing
It was great to see the wildlife in their natural habitats. The weather was great and held well during the safari. Our tour guide Joe Mouti was outstanding. He knows the terrain, knowledgeable about the different animals, and know when to pull close to see the magnificent animals. Food was great and accommodating was great.
