Me and my friends decided to do gorillas in Congo, We reached our to Gorilla Trek Safaris via email. In a nut shell, I can say “It was AWESOME”, Gorilla Trek Safaris delivered the experience that went beyond wildlife viewing. It was an educational and soul-stirring adventure that highlighted the beauty of nature and the importance of preserving it. This is a must-do for anyone looking to connect with nature in one of its most untouched forms.
An incredible experience! The guides were very knowledgeable and the experience was well managed and organized. We received a detailed safety brief at the outset and learned about the gorillas (and the specific gorilla family) we would be seeing.
The intimate encounter with the Eastern Lowland Gorillas was the pinnacle of our journey. The majestic presence of these serene giants amidst the Congo rainforest was an awe-inspiring sight that will be etched in our memories forever. Thank you GORILLA TREK SAFARIS!
