Highly Recommend, Safe as a solo female John is an excellent guide, we saw lions, leopards hyenas, elephants, hippos, everything in Queen Elizabeth National park. Has connections to see gorillas, chimpanzees, boat tours, any excursion you want! I felt very safe with him travelling as a solo female. He was able to transport me wherever I needed, I started in Kisoro and ended in Kigali, Rwanda.

Amazing gorilla trekking trip with John! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ John was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. He picked us up at the Kigali airport the day before our trip, handled all the logistics, and was super flexible with any stops we wanted to make in Kigali and along the way. We planned the trip on very short notice, and John was extremely responsive, reliable, and easy to trust right from the start. Everything was really smooth, well planned, and affordable. The drive to Uganda was beautiful, and John made sure we were comfortable the whole time — great car (lots of power for those steep hills!), good meal stops, and always making sure we took our time. He’s such a kind and pleasant person to be around — never intrusive, always thoughtful, and clearly passionate about what he does. We stayed at Kaara Lodge, which was stunning, and the gorilla trekking itself was just magical — a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The park sits right at the border of Uganda, Rwanda, and the DRC, which made it feel even more special. What we loved most is that John is part of a wonderful community-based organization (CBO) that supports local communities, promotes ethical tourism, and reinvests in social causes. It really felt good knowing our trip contributed to the Ugandan economy and local livelihoods. Couldn’t recommend John more — great company, a great driver, and someone who truly cares about his guests and his community.

The best experience in Africa We had a wonderful experience on a full three day tour with John in Uganda and Rwanda. I and a frequent can’t recommend the trip more. My family and I were in great hands. We were so appreciative of the great and fluid professional communication even prior to the trip. Everything went smoothly from our pick up and Kigali airport and all the bookings and licenses arranged. Our experience trekking gorillas and at the wonderful lodge will be with us forever. Thanks John! .

Unglaubliche Reise nach Uganda & Ruanda – Gorilla-Trekking inklusive ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unsere Reise nach Uganda und Ruanda war eines der größten Highlights meines Lebens. Schon die Organisation war perfekt – vom Abholen im Hotel bis zur Rückkehr nach einer Woche hat alles reibungslos funktioniert. Das absolute Highlight war natürlich das Gorilla-Trekking in Uganda. Dieses Erlebnis ist schwer in Worte zu fassen – so ursprünglich, so nah an der Natur, einfach unvergesslich. Dazu kamen Begegnungen mit Schimpansen, eine Bootstour im Queen-Elizabeth-Nationalpark, auf der wir unzählige Nilpferde aus nächster Nähe sehen konnten, und natürlich Elefanten. Ein ganz großes Dankeschön geht an John, unseren Reiseleiter. Er war immer empathisch, aufmerksam und hat uns von Anfang bis Ende begleitet. Er hat sogar immer wieder kleine Extrastopps eingelegt, damit wir ein Bier trinken oder einfach die Landschaft genießen konnten. Alles war perfekt organisiert, wir haben uns jederzeit sicher und gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Diese Reise war ein einmaliges Abenteuer, das ich jedem nur empfehlen kann. Danke an John und das gesamte Team für diese unvergessliche Erfahrung!

Great Safari in Uganda I had a great trip with John to Rwanda and Uganda. We saw the mountain gorillas close up and had a great time in Elizabeth national Park. Our guide John was very nice and helpful and always open to our requests. I have been in Africa many times and this was one of the best Safari tours I ever had. Uganda and Rwanda are absolutely worth a trip!

Perfectly Planned Safari — Unforgettable! Peter of Wildlife Explorers Africa(u) planned the best safari. Everything ran smoothly—from permits and transfers to superb lodge choices—so I could focus on the magic: gorilla tracking in the Bwindi Heritage Site, thrilling game drives that delivered tree-climbing lions in Ishasha and a leopard in Queen Elizabeth National Park, a thoughtful and respectful Batwa Experience, and delightful golden monkey tracking in Mgahinga. Peter’s communication was clear and timely, and his guiding team was knowledgeable, safe, and passionate. I’ve added a few photos to give a taste of what we saw, and I’m happy to share more if needed. I wholeheartedly recommend traveling to Africa with Wildlife Explorers Africa(u) for a truly lifetime experience.
