Short but sweet 3 day tour, giving you the best of Uganda! - The trip started wonderful the second that Eli with Home 2 Africa picked us up, and never stopped being wonderful! Due to the amount of distance between Entebbe and Bwindi, we had a ton of driving, which we knew while booking, but Eli made sure to stop and show us everything he could along the way, breaking up the drive and giving us such an amazing experience! The gorilla trekking was better than I could have dreamed of, the accommodations were beautiful, clean and welcoming, the scenery stunning, and I can only hope to be able to do this entire trip again some day! Thank you Eli and Home 2 Africa!

4-Day Trek - We cannot recommend Home to Africa enough! The company was extremely accommodating, allowing us to start our trek in Kigali and end in Kampala. They even combined the 5-day and 3-day safaris to give us a perfect 4-day itinerary. The gorilla trek was a once in a lifetime experience, the game drive and boat tour around Queen Elizabeth National Park was beautiful but it was our tour guide Rolland who absolutely made the trip for us. He was extremely knowledgeable, very helpful and most importantly, he was great fun!

Best experience ever with the best guide ever. - This is my second safari like trip this year. One in Tanzania and this one in Uganda and I have learned that so much of the time experience relies on your guide. Roland from Home to Africa was one of a kind in terms of making sure we got the most out of our experience. We had an incredible time witnessing the beautiful gorillas and extended our trip to visit Queen Elizabeth National Park. Once in a life time experience. Huge thank you to Roland and the Home to Africa team for making it so special for us.

So glad we used Home to Africa! - 4 nights 5 days and one Gorilla trekking experience. We had a great time. Our drivers both in Rwanda and in Uganda were excellent. Scodious, our driver in Uganda was very fun to travel with. She made the great trip even better. I know there are a ton of travel companies to choose from. Home to Africa is one I would for sure use again. They always answered any questions i had quickly and were very easy to deal with. They picked lodges with i our budget and we had no complaints at all.

A true adventure in the Pearl of Africa - The best company to visit Uganda! I booked the Gorilla trek with them, payment was done online by card and communication was very efficient! The entire experience was very well planned and stress free! I had a fantastic time with my guide Zedius. Professional, punctual and the best drive to navigate some tough terrain! My accommodations were spectacular: comfortable, clean, excellent staff and food. As a single female I felt completely safe and very well taken care! I can’t recommend this company enough to anyone coming to East Africa and I am sure they will be the ones that I will choose when I come to Rwanda!

A trip to never forget - What an amazing trip. Uganda is a beautiful country, the trip was short but very diverse – from flat dry land, to rich forests and mountains. Which made it a wonderful adventure. Our guides Derrick, Danny and Balam showed us around perfectly and were such great company. The accommodations were very special and everything was thought off. It was very special to visit the Gorilla's and see so many different beautiful animals during the safari. A trip to never forget.

Once in a lifetime experience - My experience with Home to Africa was amazing! From the moment we were picked up, our guide, Eli, made us feel welcome and comfortable. Eli is, without a doubt, the best guide we could have asked for. He is super friendly and funny, an excellent driver, and his knowledge of the local culture was impressive - he’s always ready to answer our questions, no matter how random they are! The trek itself was very well-organised and it’s hard to put into words the feeling of seeing the gorillas up close in their natural habitat. It’s definitely a once in a lifetime experience I highly recommend Home to Africa and especially Eli for anyone considering a gorilla trekking tour.

Simply superb - I can’t describe how prompt and the turnaround time of every piece of query was resolved by Hedmond and team. They are simply awesome and if you ever considering doing a trip, look no further and just book this tour. The team is well trained with the gorilla tracking and we had an unbelievable experience and very humbled to see them up so close.
