Reviews
Very friendly and professional
We had a fantastic 10 days here in Uganda with big apes. Our first part of our journey was with a guide named Tim and he was very welcoming and friendly with a great passion and knowledge for the animals putting in a great effort to show us as much as possible.
The other half we had a guide named Gerald who has was very knowledgeable with animals as well as good at teaching us the history and culture and the different local languages so we could say some friendly greetings to some of the locals as well as adjusting the schedule when one activity took longer than expected to keep things flowing and fun.
I would highly recommend big apes as it is very organized and professional you would be very lucky to have guides like Tim and Gerald i would highly recommend both for your next safari!

Very enjoyable and stress free experience. The gorillas were fantastic and the hostels we stayed in were excellent.

Trustworthy and Excellent Accommodations
My wife and I recently completed a 4 day / 3 night safari tour of the golden monkeys at Volcanoes National Park, the gorillas at Bwindi National Park and Lake Bunyonyi in Uganda . Our guide, Ambrose, was reliable and excellent , helping us make sense of the culture and activities we participated in. We also took on some activities that we had time for that wasn’t pre-arranged that was time and money well spent including the cultural activities outside of volcanoes park (highly recommend). Book with confidence and be sure to tip the rangers , animal trackers, hotel staff and of course your guide .

Friendly, comfortable and flexible
Had a great trip with Andrew to see the golden monkeys in Rwanda and gorillas in Uganda. The trip was well organised and Andrew was an excellent guide, he was flexible and friendly and had lots of knowledge about both countries. Communication leading up to the tour was good as well. Highly recommend.

Brian the best in the biz!
Our tour was a 4 day gorilla and golden monkey trekking tour with Brian as our guide. The trip was perfectly planned out with fantastic accommodation and meal options. Brian was extremely knowledgeable and made sure we were looked after throughout the whole trip.
Couldn’t recommend Brian and Big Apes enough!

Amazing 4 day guided tour, once in a lifetime experience
I did a 4 day tour in Rwanda and Uganda. Highlights were the Golden Monkey trekking and Gorilla trekking. These are experiences I will never forget. Our tour guide Brian was excellent. His knowledge on the animals was great and was very polite throughout the 4 days. Highly recommend this tour.

Friendly, helpful, well organised and committed to providing a great experience.
Great Apes provided us with the experience of a lifetime. Our driver/guide Brian was a great companion for our 10 day safari. He was very knowledgeable about the animals we saw and the places we visited. He was a careful and safe driver and we felt very comfortable driving with him.
The itinerary included all the best that Uganda has to offer but even so we only scratched the surface of what Uganda has to offer. We will certainly visit Uganda again and we won’t hesitate to use Great Apes again. In particular we will ask for Brian to guide us.

Truly incredible experience seeing primates in Uganda!
Our 4 day excursion with Big apes was nothing short of incredible. Seeing chimps and gorillas was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Peter met with us the night before we left to welcome us and our safari guide/driver, Ezra, was very informative and receptive to our wants during the tour. All of the lodges we stayed at were clean with great food offerings, which were included. Would not hesitate to recommend using Big Apes Africa!
