Gorilla Trekking Adventures - Uganda & Rwanda
Private Tours
“For magnificence, for variety of form and color, for profusion of brilliant life — bird, insect, reptile, beast — for vast scale — Uganda is truly “the Pearl of Africa.” – Winston Churchill
Welcome to the place that truly holds the key to my heart. I’ve traveled to over 50 countries around the world photographing wildlife in its natural habitat and trekking with Gorillas in Uganda… there is nothing like it. Sitting with these beautiful creatures be prepared to feel connected in a way that is unimaginable. Their expressions and movements and personalities are so similar to our own. Be prepared for the hour with them to fly by… Which is why, all of our tours to Uganda have a minimum of 2 treks. One trek to take all the photos you want and another trek to be in the moment.
The tours I’ve created for Uganda are of course focused on the many primates (Gorillas, Chimpanzees, and Golden Monkeys) that Uganda is famous for but we also offer tours where you can see some more of Uganda’s famous wildlife including Lions, Leopards, Elephants, Rhinos, and of course the famous Shoebills the most prehistoric bird there is. Uganda is also a bird watching haven and we have created specific bird watching.
