Uganda/Rwanda gorilla treking
 
My husband and I are planning to go gorilla treking in Jan 08. We have narrowed the safaris company down to Wild Frontiers, Travelust or Great Lakes Safaris. I like Travelust's itinerary the best but would like to hear from people who have used these companies.
Or does anyone have anything to say bad about Travelust?

Thanks
Connie

Hi Connie. I used Travelust for my trip to Uganda and thought they were fantastic. The owner, James, was always quick to answer all of our questions prior to our trip. Our driver, Meddie, was knowledgeable, professional, and flexible. I always felt safe. Oh, and we were able to negotiate with them on the price. I highly recommend this tour group.

Hi Connie

Just a note to say wherever you do it and whomever you do it with you will have a truly amazing experience. I get goosebumps thinking about when my husband and I did it way back in 2000 in Rwanda. (The Rwandan people were great, as were the Ugandans) It was the most awesome experience,one of the best ever in our travels through 10 African countries. We could not wipe the smile off our faces for a week. We have some great photos but I really recommend getting your photos and then putting the camera away so that you can enjoy the experience without the camera. Have fun, we can't wait to go again.
