We went on incredible sunset and sunrise game drives, and on a boat tour of the Nile River. We saw countless giraffes and elephants on the game drives. Everything was well planned and carried out smoothly. Carol was so nice! I would highly recommend Gorilla Link Tours to first time travelers to Uganda.…

If you want a knowledgeable and well connected insider to navigate you through the beauty that can be discovered in The Pearl of Africa, Carol Amutuhaire is your best bet. Carol has been running Gorilla Link Tours for a solid five years now and she makes the most of that experience when she manages your trip. I have now met most of the safari guides and drivers that she regularly works with and they are all well educated local Ugandans. This trip, we worked with Richard and Ezra and they were both personable and full of great tales and travel sensibilities to help us get to the places we needed to go. We spent most of our time with Richard and I would gladly have him host us again. We felt the we were completely pampered by the lodges that Carol chose for us, especially Four Gorillas Lodge. This was an experience to which I can easily give my highest level of praise.…

The Gorilla trekking was fantastic! Everything I wanted from that trip and more. Carol booked us at Four Goriilas Lodge, which was The Best we've been to in over 10 years of travel to Uganda, and i cant say enough about the quality of the food, thank you Chef! We opted for 2 porters (I'm 60, it seemed wise), they carried our packs and lunches and helped me when I needed it and they encouraged me all the way. It was important to them that i got my wish. I hurt my knee trekking and required the "Ugandan Helicopter Ride" out, as our driver Richard called it. Another wise choice so as not to ruin the rest of my vacation. The cost was steep but worth it. Ten men taking turns carring me out, $30 each seemed a low cost by the end of the ride. They were fast! The one thing I wanted from this trip was a selfie with a Silverback and boy did I get my wish. Thank you Carol, you took care of every detail and we never had a concern. Our driver Richard told us all about the tribes and areas we traveled thru and always came through for us. He has a great sense of humor and is very knowlegable which helps so much when interacting with people. I was most concerned with offending people, but he always knew what would be misunderstood or just not appropriate. The Entebbe Wildlife Center, behind the scene tour should also not be missed! The Queen Elizabeth Park Safari was spectacluar as well! Carol arranged for a tracker for our safari, James, who found the lions by their radio collars. I'm so glad Carol thought of it, I'd have never thought to ask. We are already thinking of our next trip! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU CAROL…

I can't recommend Gorilla Link Tours highly enough. We origionally booked our safari holiday with Carol, the owner of the company, back in 2019 and after two postponements, due to Covid, managed to take our 19 night trip this month. Carol remained in contact throughout this time putting in a lot of work each time to reschedule, including our chimp and gorilla permits and even held the price she quoted us from almost three years back. She has been amazing and it was wonderful to meet her at long last. The trip itself was fabulous: I really can't fault it. All the mid range lodges Carol picked for us were excellent and we had a fantastic driver and knowledgeable guide in Mike throughout the trip. And of course the gorilla and chimpanzee treks were real bucket list experiences, although we saw plenty of other wildlife too. We finished our trip with a few days of luxury at the Wildwater Lodge on an island in the Nile, suggested by Carol, which is a unique destination. Gorilla Link Tours were very competitively priced compared to other companies we contacted and offers a truly personal and high quality service.…
