Adventure in a lifetime. (more)Dolly Chen
Not surprisingly the gorilla tracking. However the whole trip was amazing. The chimpanzee tracking and swamp visit to see shoebill storks was also fantastic. The holiday was simply fantastic. The local tour company provided an excellent itinerary and guide. Everything ran very smoothly (except the road surfaces!!!). (more)Hazel Dykes

We couldn't possibly choose one but highlights include gorilla trekking at Bwindi, seeing the giraffes go by as we walked in Lake Mburo NP, the tree climbing lions at Ishasha, the small boat trip down the Nileand the cultural evening... (more)Kathleen Revell
Most memorable for me was the Gorilla Habitation, the Chimpanzee Habitation and the 1 hour Gorilla visitation. A close second is just the scenery going to and from Biwindi Park. (more)David Pihach

The gorilla trekking was the most memorable part of the holiday. (more)Waka Shibata
Very good! 4 vs 5 stars is due to the large proportion of daylight spent driving, but that’s just inherent in choosing to do this itinerary in a short amount of time, which was really on us. Other than that it was a 5. Uganda was great, very scenic and welcoming people, wish we had been able to spend more time there. (more)Peter Cyffka

The entire Gorilla experience! From the breathtaking views driving up to Bwindi, to settling into your amazing room at Rushage Gorilla lodge, to the anticipation of the gorilla tracking and finally the realization of coming face-to-face with a gorilla family. An experience and adventure of a life time. (more)Edward Fritz
