Gorilla trekking experience - Eco Adventure Safari was amazing! They were able to accommodate and had great communication. I found out about them through YouTube Channel Kara and Nate and they didn’t disappoint. My driver Abdul was very kind and made the experience wonderful. The gorilla trek was life changing! It is a must do! Highly recommend using Eco Adventure Safari.

Absolutely fantastic tour organiser - Absolutely wonderful trip organised by EcoAdventures. Their attention to detail, helpfulness and enthusiasm were just spot on. From the moment I I first made contact with them online, right until the point when my trip finished, there was nothing other then first class service. I dealt with Patrick at their office in Uganda, who patiently answered all my questions, and suggested the lodges and activities that he thought would best suit my requirements- and he was spot on. Abdul - the driver/guide who was with us for the three nights - was brilliant too.

Amazing experience - We took part in a 3-days trip to Uganda Bwindi Impenetrable Forest (gorilla tracking) from Kigali with our amazing guide from Eco Adventures Safaris - Edgar :) Edgar organized everything for us and even suggested some additional activities in Uganda that gave us a chance to have a deeper insight into the lives of some people in Uganda and their cultures. We additionally visited Lake Bunyoni and Village of Batwa people. Our guide was always well organized, on time and was a great driver in the harsh off road circumstances. He answered all of our even the most detailed questions :) Totally recommended to travel with Eco Adventures Safaris and Edgar.

Seeing the best of Uganda - A friend and I did an 11-day tour with Eco Adventure, including safaris in two national parks, and chimp and gorilla trekking. Our guide Silus was experienced, knowledgable, accomodating and down-to-earth. We learned a great deal from him, not just about the landscapes and animals we were seeing, but also about everyday life in Uganda. Accommodations were luxurious and we even had butlers in several of the lodges who attended to our every need. Michelle in the office was great about working through numerous changes and requests as we planned the itinerary. This is a company and an experience I would highly recommend.

Bucket list done - The trek was easy and we saw a gorilla family of 6 which was amazing. They were within 2 to 3 metres from us. Our driver Edgar from eco safaris is brilliant- super knowledgeable and super helpful

A+, 10/10 service and experience - Abdul was an absolutely incredible guide. He was: 1) knowledgeable about the landscapes and animals; 2) a competent and safe driver (this may seem superficial but anyone who has been to East Africa can appreciate how important this is); and 3) a nice guy not only to my friend and me, but to everyone. The last point may be lost on some people but everywhere we went Abdul was respected and liked. Meaning - my friend with whom I traveled with and I were respected and liked. This is very important when you’re so far from home! Our trip was fun and peaceful. The itinerary required a lot of driving but it was well worth it. There were literally zero hiccups along the way. Every aspect of trip was meticulously planned. I credit Abdul and his team for this. I don’t rate often unless it’s for exceptionally good or bad service/experience. This was an A+, 10/10 experience and we received A+, 10/10 service. The entire time with Abdul, from the morning he picked us up in Rwanda (on time), drove us into Uganda, seeing the chimps, then gorillas, until the time he dropped us back off at the airport (on time) was exceptional. Amazing guide, amazing experience. I can’t recommend Abdul and this trip enough. Thank you for making our time in Rwanda and Uganda special - can’t wait to one day do it again. I recommend Abdul and this experience in the strongest way possible.

A country rich in culture, warmth, biodiversity, kindness and very professional guides. - I actually did a five day tour to incorporate trekking with the chimpanzees in Kibale Forest National Park as well as trekking with the gorillas in Bwindi National Park. After arriving late at night into Entebbe I was greeted at the airport and taken to the very comfortable and welcoming 2 Friends Beach Hotel. Early the following morning, the most accomodating guide, Apolo, collected me and off we went on a road trip traversing the real country Uganda, across the equator and through little villages and towns and the ever changing terrain until after several hours we arrived at the most charming Rushaga Gorilla Lodge. The one transcending observation throughout this whole sojourn was the overriding genuine kindness and welcome received not only from Apolo but from everyone I encountered including all the staff at the lodge. The room was spacious and comfortable with a feeling of being protected yet in the midst of this evocative forest redolent with the sounds of the plethora of species housed therein. The following day I was taken for the trek through the jungle which was a revelation in itself but the ultimate experience was the hour spent within the gorilla family who went about their daily activities accepting us in their midst and clearly unperturbed. Just bewitching. After a lunch break and freshen up, the afternoon was spent meeting the Pygmy community and learning about their culture and trajectory. This was captivating and the amble through the community village and seeing the school and observing their lifestyle was also a fascinating and humbling experience. Then another day on the road travelling north to Kibale Forest National Park, home to chimpanzees.Here I spent two days amongst the trees in the enchanting Turaco Treetops Lodge where again the staff were so pleased to help. The following morning was another supremely organised jaunt into the forest where we were again transfixed by the displays and vocalisations of the troop of chimps of varying ages. The guide and rangers were so professional and able and generous with their boundless knowledge and experience. Again a refreshing lunch break at the lodge following which I was taken on a nature walk to spot birds and monkeys and learn more about the behaviours and adaptations of these native inhabitants. I was treated to more village life concentrating on the local crafts such as coffee production, dyeing and weaving and banana distillation providing a popular local drink. The colourful , exuberant and enticing dancing by the beautiful African ladies makes one feel special and embraced! Sadly the following day was again across country to complete an essentially circular trip back to Entebbe airport. Apolo was a great driver and during our many hours together I was to see and learn so much about this resplendent country. I would highly recommend this tour and especially this guide, Apolo, to anyone visiting Uganda. You will see and learn so much.
