Great
Did the one day golden monkey encounter in the volcanoes national park. Shever was the driver, friendly, great communication and stopped at certain places to take pictures on the return trip. Only issue was the vehicle was having issues on the way there.

Serious safari Company!
We had a nice experience with kyooma gorilla safari. They gave us great Uganda experience. Good car, and nice driver/guide with a lot of knowledge. Worked very well with a family with two kids on 12 and 14 years old. Solved all problems that could come along the way🤩

Making a dream trip an unforgetable experience
We just returned from the most incredible safari across Uganda and Rwanda, and we can’t stop thinking about it! The tour took us from Rwanda to Uganda, where we had the extraordinary chance to observe mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. But the adventure didn’t end there—we also saw the golden monkeys in Volcanoes National Park, and an extra day took us to Akagera National Park. Every moment was a marvel.
From the very beginning, the tour operator stood out. Mwije was incredibly responsive and always aimed to offer the best value to enrich our experience. Our guide, Kato Precious, was a true gem—always going above and beyond, sharing insights not only about the wildlife but also the rich cultures of both Uganda and Rwanda. As we traveled through towns and villages, he fostered connection—not just with us but with the local communities, making us feel like part of something bigger.
We stayed at beautiful eco-lodges in both countries, which were not only comfortable but really immersed us in nature. Since it was a private tour, it felt personal and special—just my wife and I, with all the attention and care we could have asked for. If you’re dreaming of a safari that blends wildlife, culture, and the warmest hospitality, this is the one. We couldn’t recommend it more!

Excellent organisation, communication and guide/driver - amazing experience overall
We had an amazing 4 days tour starting Kigali up to Queen Elisabeth NP. The organization from Kyooma was very good. Mwijie was very fast in responding to messages and always reachable. Our Guide and Driver Kiiza did an excellent job bringing us to all our destinations safely & in time, and telling so many interesting stories about the country, the animals and locals, and much more. We had a fantastic time - thank you Kiiza. The highlights: so many. The amazing gorillas, the chimps at Kyambura Gorge, the playing golden monkeys, the >50 elefants at Kazinga Channel and much more. Great experiences!

Muhwezi shiver was very friendly and personable. Speaks great English and was very informative.
Our safaris took us to see the gorillas and golden monkeys, both were great experiences and got us up close and personal. Accommodations were very nice with clean rooms and a variety of meal options.

Would go again
Fantastic tour, everything taken care of by our driver/guide muhwezi shever. He was very funny and personable as well. The accommodations and food were amazing as well. I felt it was a very good value for the money. Make sure you see the gorillas, that was something truly special.

Great tour with Kyooma Gorilla Safaris
My family recently completed an incredible 4-day tour combining Golden monkey trekking in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda, and Mountain gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park, Uganda. We booked with Kyooma Safaris, and the entire cross-border experience was absolutely seamless and professionally handled.
Our guide, Vincent, was fantastic—incredibly knowledgeable, a great driver, and highly attentive to our family throughout the journey. Spending time with the playful golden monkeys and standing feet away from the mountain gorillas in Bwindi were once-in-a-lifetime moments.
If you are planning an East African safari, I highly recommend Kyooma Gorilla Safaris.
