    Wonderful 8 day safari

    Jackson was extremely helpful in designing an itinerary and accommodating my requests and suggestions until I felt confident that I had the best trip planned! I was met at the airport by Jackson and my driver/guide George (also known as Geoffrey) and we set off early the next day on my bespoke 8 day trip. George was a good driver and I enjoyed travelling with him and learnt a lot about each area. The safari van with the pop up roof was excellent. George took huge pride in giving me the best possible experience and, for example, on game drives, he wouldn’t rest until I had seen everything! Murchison Park was the highlight for me, the most beautiful savannah with a wealth of animals - we saw lions, leopards, hyenas, elephants, giraffe, buffalo, hippos, kobs, hartebeest, warthogs etc. Add to this the spectacular waterfall and lovely 3 hour boat cruise. Other stand outs for me were gorilla trekking in Bwindi, with an incredible hour spent up close with a family of gorillas. And Rhino trekking at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary. For me, QE Park was nowhere near as impressive as Murchison Park and chimpanzee trekking in Kalinzu Forest was not great (I think Kibale would be better). My accommodation ranged from stunning (Aardvark Lodge, QE Park), to very good (Papyrus, Entebbe and Rushaga Gorilla Camp, Bwindi) to not so good (Ikorom Lodge, Murchison Park). All in all, I had a brilliant 8 day trip with George, who took great care of me and treated me like one of his family. Going on safari in Uganda was a truly memorable experience and I would highly recommend Jackson and George at Primate World Safaris.

    Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.

    How much does Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days cost?

    +

    Prices start at $7,370 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 Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days take?

    +

    Plan for about 192 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 Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days?

    +

    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 Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 192-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days?

    +

    Around 0 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 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days 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.

    What is included in Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: International air fares, Entry visa Uganda and Personal (medical/travel) insurance. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Kampala. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days?

    +

    Is Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    What happens to Gorilla Trekking And Masai Mara Safari – 8 Days if the weather is bad?
