Traveler reviews
5 verified traveler reviews for 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas. Ratings and reviews provided by Viator and Tripadvisor.
We enjoyed the tour, thanks to our driver (Ronaldo) who was simply the best.
The tour was very well organised, logistically. Our driver and guide, Ronaldo, took care of everything in a super professional way. Always patient, always kind, always helpful. But what makes him amazing is his love for the animals, which makes you as a tourist even more enthusiastic. It is simply great to spend safaris with him. He was by far the best spotter of all the guides in the park. He went the extra mile to show us all the animals we wanted, and he knew the name of every single bird. The man is amazing - we will miss him a lot!

BEST SAFARI AND GORILLA TOUR OPERATOR IN UGANDA
Go no further in your search for an Ugandan safari operator! I am a 54 woman who recently completed a Ugandan Gorilla Safari with my 21 yo son encompassing Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Rwanda’s Volcanos National Park, Lake Mburo National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kibale National Park and Murchison Falls National Park that was a bit over two wks long. Big Apes is passionate about providing outstanding service that is well-priced, comprehensive, safety-driven, educative, flexible, and most of all FUN. Bella at the main office was patient, kind, informative and considerate as we spent much time together during the pre-trip planning stage, incorporating all the many details that go into an endeavor like this. Once we got on the ground, she checked on us regularly. Our driver and guide Ben was simply AMAZING. From the very start, our pick up at 3:30 am at the airport, Ben was positive, energetic, organized, calm, competent, humorous, well mannered, smart and considerate. In addition to being on par w any Formula Driver navigating long arduous roads and dizzying city traffic, Ben had the management skills of a Fortune 500 CEO seamlessly gliding through a torrent of paperwork at each national park and at the international border we had to cross and cheerfully interacting w rangers, hotel staff, guides and personnel of every stripe. Did I mention that Ben did all of this in like SEVEN LANGUAGES?? But my favorite thing about Ben was that he a born naturalist with an stunning knowledge base of the animals, flora and fauna we were coming across and even acted as a de facto game drive tracker on days where we did not have an official tracker accompanying us. Ben also taught us so so much about Ugandan ecology, geography, history and culture. He took us for local food that we would NEVER have had on our own. He was flexible, calm, rigorous and punctual and we really got the impression that our well being and happiness was his one guiding principle. This is a trustworthy serious company that bends over backwards for the one thing that it is passionate about: showing its customers the true meaning of the phrase : ‘Pearl of Africa’!

8 days of perfect honeymoon, Ben was a super driver!
We spent 8 days in Uganda visiting Kibale NP, Queen Elizabeth NP, chimps trekking, gorilla trekking, Lake Bunyonyi, to Lake Mburo NP. During our visit everything was great we explore the nature of this beautiful country and we had the chance to see many animals. The trekking to see chimps and particularly the gorillas was unforgetteable. The accomodations were good for the majority, there were nothing to complain with, some of them were better then other but apart that in general We are satisfied. One big mention it has to be done for our driver Ben which was always safe in driving, happy to answear all the questions and to respond to our requests. Moreover He always explained to us what we were going to do the next day and He was so precise in respecting the leaving time, sometimes he ask us to get up early in order to enjoy the wild animals that can be spotted at that early time, infact one day we could spot two lions and there were just our car on the street! If you want to do the tour with this company ask for Ben as a driver!

Gorgeous experience
Our guide Blair was wonderful, thoughtful and considerate and the company planned a fantastic trip for us. We did so much over a short span of time and saw SO many animals. Very good value for money, very organised and experienced people.

Great memories
I’ve recently returned from my 10 trip in Uganda. It was very busy but well organised. My driver and guide named Tim made my trip more memorable with his passion for Uganda’s wildlife and culture. His knowledge about wildlife and tracking was amazing. As I was a solo traveller he made me feel very safe. The lodges I stayed at were very spacious and comfortable with lovely views and enjoyable meals. The staff all made me feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The tour itself was very busy and involved a lot of travelling but each day was a different adventure and involved finding different wildlife including the mountain gorillas. That experience was amazing, one I shall never forget. Whilst travelling I saw lovely landscapes and different cultures. This was an amazing trip and I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again. Many thanks to Big Apes and Tim

10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas cost?
+
Prices start at $3049 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kampala usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kampala is not rushed.
Is 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kampala, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 240-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kampala can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kampala and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 10 Days Tour in Uganda Wildlife with Gorillas start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kampala within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kampala?
+
On Outty we rank every Kampala experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampala’s Best Experience walking tour, Kampala Walking City Tours (Women-Guided), Kampala Heart of Walking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kampala?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kampala?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
