A good, hospitable company. I would certainly use it again. I would also recommend it to anyone
4/5

We had a great time. Well taken care of . Our driver was a very polite young man. He provided us with a lot of information. I would certainly recommend anyone looking for a great, informative experience, to use Ganyana .

Great and unique experience
4/5

Incredible and unforgettable experience. However, there were some moments in which our presence was too invasive. The workers cut large branches on several occasions so that we could see the gorillas that were hiding behind them, even though we told them it was not necessary.
When the tourist is put first instead of the wild animal, these types of excursions lose their essence of being something wild and natural. More and more people prefer and value tourism that respects wildlife. Despite all this, being able to observe them so closely and literally communicate with them was something I will never forget.

She is so welcoming and have a sense of humor
4/5

Everything was truly excellent.

The lodge's location was perfect, offering an ideal setting for our stay. The tents were fantastic, providing a comfortable and enjoyable experience. The staff was exceptionally friendly, and the food was not only delicious but also served with great care. One delightful surprise was the opportunity to observe zebras, wildebeests, and monkeys in the vicinity.

Our guide consistently impressed us by being punctual, knowledgeable about the surroundings, and always ready to share insightful information. It all contributed to a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience.

Good
4/5

Amazing trip. The gorillas and chimps were incredible and totally worth the money.
The lodges were really nice and comfortable and provided most good food.
The driver eddie was very good.
I would however check the distances and ensure you have enough time to do what you want. We initally planned to do a chimp trek and then get an afternoom flight which was not viable when we arrived although kaara had said it was. They did however find a solution for us.

great guide, good accomodation, not vegetarian friendly
4/5

Let me start with the bad. For vegetarian or vegan people, there is hardly any choice given except fruits for breakfast. They don't understand the concept of a balanced vegetarian meal. It was actually a non veg meal plan without the non veg items.This is despite their confirmation that they provide vegetarian options.

Another issue was with salt. Despite asking for low salt food it was more than even normal levels. I had to take extra medication to control my BP.

Now the good. The guide for us was very friendly and helpful. We had a very good experience despite having a totally rainy day. African safari is something one should not miss.

The accommodations provided were very good and comfortable : we took the tented camps instead of the more budget friendly campsites option.

Tarangire is really very good. The problem with Serengeti is its vast expanse and the time taken to reach or even move within. Often the most interesting sights happen before we reach the park. We also had the bad fortune of a rainy Serengeti. So that may have taken some sheen out of the experience. Ngorogoro is also very beautiful and a great place to go.

Overall the great guide we had made up for the problems with food.

Very satisfied
4/5

We are very satisfied with our safari. We prepared everything via WhatsApp from France with Alfred. We were staying at Diani Beach and it was me who asked to do the safari in Amboseli to see Kilimanjaro. What I didn't know is that it's actually a 10 hour drive between these two points

Picturesque lakes and national parks. Friendly, kind and welcoming people
Overall rating
4/5

My visit to Uganda was to fulfill my dream of Gorilla trekking. My travel was from Kampala to Bwindi forest by road. The roads itself are not the best as they are very bumpy but regular stops helps. We had amazing tour guides and we got to stop at various towns along the way. The equator line stop is lovely and a unique experience. The weather was quite humid and hot. Gorilla trekking experience at Bwindi forest was well-organised and experienced guides and trackers took good care of us and made sure we had an unforgettable experience. Our accommodations were really comfortable and all amenities were good. Visiting the Uganda lakes is a must. This beauty needs to be marketed more as I never expected to be so amazed by this experience. I was blown away by how kind and friendly the people are. So much patience and excellent hospitality. The food in Uganda is quite nice. More on the bland side though. I never felt unsafe at all in Uganda. Our tour operator was Montero Safaris and we did the 3-day gorilla trekking experience with them. I was very happy with their cost and what they delivered on.
