Gorilla and Chimpanzee Trekking Safaris in Uganda and Rwanda

I recently went on a safari tour that exceeded all my expectations! It was custom made and I visited three different parks. The guide (Richard) was incredibly knowledgeable, nice, and fun, sharing insights about the wildlife. We saw an amazing variety of animals, including elephants, lions, giraffes, and of course gorillas, all in their natural habitat. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food was delicious. Each day was well-planned, allowing us to maximize our wildlife viewing opportunities. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to connect with nature and experience the thrill of a safari!

Tracking and seeing gorillas up close was an amazing experience, deserving a 5-star rating. Bweza Gorilla Lodge in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was spectacular, and the staff were fantastic. Our guide, Richard, was insightful and engaging throughout the trip. However, two issues affected the experience: 1. A last-minute change to stay at Lake Bunyonyi on Day 2 instead of Bweza, causing us to rush our gorilla trekking. As it turns out, the resort was a step down to the Bweza 2. Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort was disappointing with a slanted room, poor food, and subpar activities compared to Bwindi. I would have preferred visiting the Golden Monkeys in Mgahinga National Park, which is now part of a new tour package offered by the company.

I did a trip of 6 days with a friend and it was an amazing experience. Richard is a professial and available guide, he explained us everything with clarity. Gorilla trekking is something to indescribable, be left breathless. If you want to live an experience of 360° in Uganda you have to choose Musana Tours and travel.

I booked this tour with huge expectations and it lived to it's reputation. Richard is an amazing guide, fully supportive and adaptable. He is an interesting companion and a really funny guy. The tour itself is an experience you will never forget. To walk among these gentle giants is breathtaking. I can, full heatredly, recommend Musana tours. You will not be dissapointed. Thank you Richard for an unforgettable experience.

We had two weeks starting in Kigali November 28 and ended in Entebbe December 11. Richard our guide picked us up in Kigali and we had a cocktail of adventures and also options. Game drive in Queen Elisabeth NP. Gorilla, chimps and shoebill trekking but the main reason for East Africa was Rwenzori mountains and climbing Margherita Peak 5109m. We where supported with 15 porters, one chef and three guides on our seven days hike. Amazing views in different zones. It was a great adventure and we all came up on the summit. I can strongly recommend Richard and Musana Tours and Travel for your adventure in East Africa.

I took an 11-day solo "Primates and Safari" tour with Richard of Musana Tours and Travel in November 2023, and I had a fantastic time. Richard had scheduled a wide variety of activities for me across Uganda that were personalized to my specific interests, including safari game drives, chimpanzee trekking, gorilla trekking, community tours, and boat rides. The logistics of my trip could not have been better handled by him and everything went very smoothly. Plus, he was very knowledgeable and full of information, as he was able to answer all of the many questions I had about the country and its animal and human inhabitants. I had such a good time in Uganda on the tour put together by Richard that I want to go back again and bring friends/family so they can experience the country, as well. And when I do go back to Uganda, I will definitely use Richard again as my tour operator!
