Africa's Most Trusted Gorilla Safari Specialists

We are Africa Gorilla Trekking Safaris — a team of passionate, Uganda-based safari specialists with over a decade of experience crafting extraordinary gorilla encounters across Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Mountain gorillas exist nowhere else on Earth. The entire global population — just over 1,000 individuals — lives in a narrow chain of ancient montane forests straddling three countries. We have spent years building the knowledge, relationships, and logistics to give you the most seamless, most breathtaking access to these magnificent animals.

What Sets Africa Gorilla Trekking Safaris Apart

We have spent over a decade doing one thing: getting travellers face-to-face with mountain gorillas as safely, smoothly, and memorably as possible.

🎫

Guaranteed Permits

We secure your gorilla trekking permits through official UWA and Rwanda Development Board channels the moment you confirm — no permit, no charge, ever.

🧭

Expert Local Guides

Our guides are Uganda Wildlife Authority-certified, born and raised near the parks, and have spent years learning the behaviour and ranges of each gorilla family.

🚙

Private 4×4 Safaris

No shared minibuses. Every client gets a dedicated vehicle and driver-guide — so your safari runs on your schedule, at your pace.

🏡

Handpicked Lodges

We partner only with lodges and camps we have personally vetted — from eco-friendly budget bandas within park boundaries to award-winning luxury forest retreats.

🌿

Conservation-First

Every booking funds ranger salaries, anti-poaching patrols, and community projects around the parks. We take low-impact trekking protocols seriously.

📞

24/7 Support

Our team is reachable around the clock throughout your safari. If anything changes — weather, gorilla movement, logistics — we handle it instantly.

What Our Clients Say

★★★★★

Standing two metres from a silverback gorilla — with his family playing around him — was the most profound moment of my life. Africa Gorilla Trekking Safaris made it completely seamless. Every detail was perfect.

★★★★★

We combined Bwindi with Queen Elizabeth National Park and it was the best two weeks of our lives. Our guide David was extraordinary — he knew every gorilla family by name. Worth every penny.

★★★★★

The gorilla habituation experience — four hours with the family — was indescribable. I saw a baby gorilla learn to climb a tree. I am still processing it two months later. Book it.
