The 2-Day Uganda Gorilla Trekking Safari - Starting from Kigali is one of the shortest gorilla trekking tours, perfect for travelers seeking a quicker route to experience gorilla trekking in Uganda. This tour is ideal for those looking to begin their journey in Kigali and trek in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Unlike longer Uganda Gorilla Safaris, this 2-Day Gorilla Trekking Uganda adventure begins and ends in Kigali, Rwanda, with a short 4-5 hour drive.

Wow amazing experience whit of gorillas this package it’s complete, our driver Bosco was kindly, respectful and wonderful person. Food, hotel and everything was fantastic. We would like to stayed more time. I recommend this agency 100/100. Thank you so much team Galactic ❤️
Unbelievable. I and my mother did this tour. Alex is an amazing guide, more than a guide because they helped us really in everything, even two and three days later helping us manage transport and other parks. And Timothy a good manager, fast, attentive and reliable. We booked the tour from Kigali, Alex slept under our hotel so we wouldn't be late. We arrived in Bwindi around 8AM and were lucky enough to see the gorillas right away. The gorillas ended up going out to the car park! literally! The Rangers told us there was only once in two years. My mother was very very happy. After the activity, still impressed, Alex offered us an extra experience: going to visit a Pygmy community that was around for a very affordable price. Really, Alex was a spectacular guide, then we went to eat at Kabale and since we didn't want to go back to Kigali, we stayed at Kabale. He helped us find a hotel and the next day we asked Timothy and Alex to manage local transport to Kasese, near Queen Elizabeth. In addition, we were recommended a tour operator there in Queen Elizabeth, also, economical and reliable (we went my mother and I for this NP, with the best car, alone and for a super super super competitive price, thanks to Timothy's management recommended by a friend of his) AMAZING. Bottom line: we are very happy to have chosen Galactica Safaris and stay in touch with Alex and Timothy, we are still in Uganda and when we have questions about transport, logistics or parks, we still ask them and they guide us in the distance. Galactica Safaris, great, thanks. A hug, guys!
Booked Gorilla trekking and Chimp tracking and a safari. Hotels were nice and meals were great. My guide and driver was a very nice man and hardworking. Delivered on the chimps and Gorillas. I would recommend. Owner of the company is very hardworking. Everything went smoothly
travelled to Uganda with Galactic Safari and had an amazing time. Tim was incredibly quick and precise in answering every question, making the whole planning process effortless. A huge thank‑you to our guide, the unforgettable Bosco — fun, kind, always present, and endlessly patient. He picked us up in Kigali and accompanied us throughout the entire journey, making everything smoother and even more enjoyable. Uganda is a stunning country, and I truly hope to return soon. When I do, I’ll definitely choose Galactic Safari again.
What a beautiful experience with the one day gorilla trekking tour , as a solo traveller, the driver, the rest of the team made this trip so comfortable and safe. I also appreciated the punctuality , love from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
We had a perfect unforgettable 5 day Safari with the best guide Bosco! He was so friendly, helpful and did a great job taking care of us. The gorillas and chimpanzes were amazing. Everything was very good organized. The food was really good and we met many great people (Tourguides, Rangers...). All of the staff was really attentive, helpful and friendly. The communication via WhatsApp was really easy and there was always a fast response, thanks to Tim. We can definitely recommend this tour company and hope to do a tour again with them one day.
I have travelled to around 120 countries, and these two days have been particularly memorable. My main objective was gorilla trekking, but I made the trip from Kigali and made sure to visit the desired sightseeing spots in the city. The staff were friendly and very kind and friendly. As the trip was short, I was satisfied with the gorilla trekking and sightseeing in Kigali in two days, which made the most of my time. Thank you very much to the GalacticSafaris staff for their involvement in this trip.
This was an excellent adventure! It was so amazing. Not only did we get to see the gorillas, but we also went on a safari and got to see so many animals. The guide and driver was amazing and so knowledgeable. They organized everything for us and made it one of the best experiences ever!
I have only great things to say. One of the best tours I've ever been on! They were so catering towards us and really did the most, so that we can enjoy what Uganda has to offer. Our driver Ema (Emanuel) was so cool and we had a great time and so much fun with him as our tour guide. From fantastic driving, to accommodation, to their culture, and just having fun with him in general. He wanted us to see as much as we could manage and more. I hiiiiighly recommend 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Absolutely amazing experience! From organisation to accommodations, the driver, everyone included was amazing! If interested, do not think twice, just book the package with Galactic Safaris!
