Carol is an excellent host. She is professional, courteous and organized. I am happy my team chose a Ugandan-owned and woman-owned business to support. It is great to have a tour guide that truly becomes part of your group. It was my first time visiting Uganda and Africa. Carol will guide you through the experience with ease. Our lodging in Uganda was more comfortable than in the US! 5 stars for excellent planning. I definitely didn't feel like I needed quite that level of luxury but it was a nice treat for sure. Some of the highlights of our trip included the Murchison Falls game drive, Queen Elizabeth National Park game drive, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and Gorilla Trek. I would definitely book with her again. You will want to plan for a minimum of 10-14 days. There are so many activities to engage in.…

We had a fabulous safari in February 2020. Caroline and Richard (our excellent guide/driver) made it into an outstanding experience. Starting in Entebbe we spent 11 days visiting 5 different parks (Murchinson Falls, Kibale, Queen Elisabeth northern and Ishasha sector and Gahinga). We have been on African Safaris 6 times before, but never in Uganda. The landscape was varied, green and very beautiful, the lodges where excellent, people were very friendly and we saw all the animals we had hoped for. Caroline was excellent in leading us to the right lodges and very helpful before and during our safari and Richard was a joy to be with. Our Land-cruiser was always full of laughs and we enjoyed learning from Richard about Ugandan ways while riding in the car. We are glad we chose Gahinga instead of Bwindi for the Gorilla tracking. The lodge was walking distance from the starting point for the tracking and it took us only one hour to find a playful family of 10 gorillas. The only negative was the quality of the roads. It seems that the whole Ugandan road -infrastructure is under construction. The parts that are finished are excellent, but a large portion of the road network is not quite there yet. But - we survived, thanks to Richard. We chose to go back to Europe from Kigali which was a good choice. The short transfer to the capital of Rwanda was on paved and comfortable roads. A great thank you also to Edison, our guide to Kigali, for making it a great last day of our visit to Uganda/Rwanda.…

If you are planning your dream safari trip choose no other than Gorilla link Tours! I had always dreamed of visiting Africa since I was a child and finally one day I started planning my trip almost two years in advance. From the very beginning Caroline was so quick to respond to my inquiries and requests. She was in contact with me throughout the whole two years tailoring the trip to exactly as I requested. I could not have ever imagined a better tour operator and upon visiting the beautiful country of Uganda, my family and I were blown away by the hospitality. We met with Caroline at the beginning and the end of our trip which made it even more special. She was exactly as I had imagined her to be..so welcoming and joyful. It felt as if we had known her for years. Our trip also would not have been the same without our amazing tour guide Bob. He was always making sure we had the best experience in everything we did. We could not have been happier! The decision is easy... choose Gorilla link Tours!! I promise you will not be disappointed!…
