Great trip to Uganda
I found Primate World Safaris after knowing I wanted gorilla trekking to be the star in my next trip to Africa. Planning the trip was easy, Christine answered all of my questions and helped me make sure the trip had everything I wanted. My driver/guide, Ashiraf, was great and kept me informed on what everyday would bring and did everything he could to ensure I had opportunities for photos and encounters with each animal I wanted to see. Uganda is a stunning country with incredible people and wildlife to enjoy. I couldn’t recommend Primate World more.

Gorillas, Chimps, and a Peek at Local Culture
What an incredible safari and cultural experience! Geofry our tour guide/driver welcomed us and treated us as family. He led some game drives, offering expert info on the animals. The chimp and gorilla treks are led by specialty guides. Local guides provided community tours to glimpse a piece of local culture. The accommodations in various lodges offered a quiet respite from a busy to relax in one of the lounge areas or in the pool (not all have pools.) Bedrooms all showed a Ugandan flare in decor, with big towels, hot water in walk in showers, comfy beds and mosquito nets. Local foods and international cuisine were excellent quality, form matooke (plantain) serve with chicken or beef, tenderloin perfectly cooked to medum rare, great breakfasts with made to order eggs, pancakes, and proteins. Fresh veggies and fresh fruits, too. Geofry quicly learned our interests and offered activities, such as watching crafts. What an incredible life-impacting experence!!!

Fabulous authentic experience not to be missed
Having just completed this tour, I amazed and delighted at what a wonderful experience we had. From the first moment we met our tour guide, Geoffrey, we were treated like family. All of our needs and desires were addressed and delivered. From the amazing experiences trekking with chimpanzees and gorillas to our community interactions, every piece of the trip was fulfilling and exceeded our expectations. Our lodging was excellent, food delicious and plentiful and our experiences authentic. From help with our baggage to a clean and well appointed safari vehicle, every detail was thoughtfully delivered. The animals we saw did not disappoint. We saw them close up and were not wanting for viewing opportunities. Our, guide/driver was exceptional and some of the local guides provided additional interesting insights. It was fascinating, fulfilling and altogether fabulous experience. I highly recommended both this tour and this first rate company.

Amazing Uganda Safari
This holiday was the experience of a lifetime - Uganda is an amazing country, rich in wildlife and with vibrant and welcoming local communities. So many highlights, gorilla trekking, a visit to the Rhino conservation project (complete with walking safari) and trekking Chimpanzees. I cannot recommend Primate World Safaris enough, 5 star treatment the entire time we were there and an amazing itinerary. Accommodation was superb as was the food and the welcome at the various lodges where we stayed. Thank you to Jackson and his team.

Best tour operator for the ultimate Ugandan experience!
I can’t thank enough Jackson for the whole itinerary planning and my travel guide and buddy Geoffrey (commonly known as George) for the unforgettable trip! Every aspect of the trip was carefully tailored, from the activities and time schedules to the accommodation options and road travel. Apart from the safari & gorilla trek kings, the itinerary included many activities aimed to experience the Ugandan culture and engage with the local communities. The lodges were excellent and the activities exceeded my expectations. Geoffrey is a very knowledgable guide and knows every region of Uganda inside out! He even made additions and adjustments to the initial itinerary depending on my preferences! You can definitely rely on Primate World Safaris to organise an unforgettable trip based on your specific requirements! I’m really looking forward to my next Uganda visit to explore the rest of the country with Primate World Safaris! Thanks again Jackson & Jeffrey!

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days cost?
+
Prices start at $5,030 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 11 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days?
+
Around 4 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 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 Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days?
+

Does Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days include hotel pickup?

What languages is Uganda Gorillas and Game safari - 10 Days offered in?
+

+
