Gorilla Habituation & Lake Bunyonyi

Four hours with a gorilla family instead of one. Then two nights on a lake with no crocodiles and no hippos, so you can actually swim.

What travelers say

From Google reviews of All in Africa Safaris.

★★★★★
Permits for gorilla trekking are notoriously competitive to secure, but they got it done without any issues. They were transparent in helping us find the right permits, in the appropriate sector, for the dates that worked with our trip.

Our guide, Claire, looked after us very well and was extremely informative about all the national parks we visited: Kidepo, Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth, Bwindi, and Lake Mburo. The lodges were all lovely. Most were owned by communities.

My sister, age 58, has a knee complication and had thought we would need porters to carry her. But we were so lucky — we found the giant apes within just one hour.

★★★★★
Amazing viewing of shoebills. Nicholas arranged everything and was a wonderful guide.
