Private 2 Days Volcano Golden Monkey and Bwindi Gorilla Trek

We had an excellent experience during our Mid-range 2-day golden monkeys & gorilla trekking experience. Our guide, Ronald, was extremely kind and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to make sure the trip was according to our wishes; taking the time to advise the park rangers of our ideal hiking plan. The company organized our stay at the Gorilla Hills Eco Lodge, which was perfect. The food was delicious, the room was spacious and the lodge staff were extremely friendly; even taking the time to clean and dry our shoes from the golden monkeys trekking. I highly recommend Frena Adventures and we thoroughly enjoyed!

I had a 2 day itinerary from Kigali to both the Volcanoes National Park and the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Ronnie was my driver and the car was very comfortable (this is important for me as I can get travel sick otherwise). The tour was nicely paced. Seeing the golden monkeys in Volcanoes National Park was great but the real highlight was Bwindi Impenetrable Forest: trekking families of gorillas was amazing! I went for the midrange itinerary and the lodge I stayed in had absolutely beautiful views over the mountains.

What an experience, seeing these animals up close is a bucket list I will never forget, everything was organised & on time which was great, food transport & accommodation were perfect. Would book with frena again

My wife and I had a fantastic time on our honeymoon with Frena Adventures! We did a 2 day trek in Rwanda and Uganda, and our guide Farouk was amazing! He was perfect and we were so lucky to have him as our guide! It was a wonderful way to kick off the honeymoon. Farouk was very knowledgeable, made us feel so comfortable, and was a fantastic driver!

Highly recommend Frena tours. We did the three day tour including the Bwindi Gorilla trek and Golden monkeys hike at Volcanos National park. Everything was exceptional! Ronald was our guide and took exceptional care of us throughout our trip. I had recently had a car accident so was really nervous about my hiking capacity but Ronald organised everything to ensure I could still do everything I wanted to. The gorilla hiking in Uganda was exceptional and cannot rate the guides and porters enough. Similarly, our experiences in Rwanda were amazing - exceptional staff and facilities all round. We did the budget accomodation option which was really good value for money and still such a personal and comfortable experience. We also really loved that Frena was a local company and all the tours we took supported local businesses and staff. My only regret was not doing a longer trip and spending more time in both Rwanda and Uganda. FYI Frena allows you to plan your own adventure - which I would definitely do in the future. Thanks again to Roland!

Very well done- Fred helped me book a private gorilla trek experience on very short notice, and he patiently answered all my questions via message. I didn’t want to leave Uganda without seeing the gorillas so I’m glad Frena Adventures was able to help make this happen! Jackson was my guide and driver- he seemed to know everything about the gorillas and Uganda. He also knew some great spots for authentic food! I was lucky enough to spend an hour with 11 mountain gorillas and I can say this experience was well worth it.

100% recommended. Our driver Farouk was the best! Very welcoming and accommodating. The drive was beautiful and the gorilla trekking was the most extraordinary experience

Unforgettable 2-day Golden Monkey (Volcanoes NP) and Gorilla Trekking (Bwindi) Tour. The booking process was simple and all my questions were answered quickly. Payment process was exceptionally good, as the payment provider even allowed transferring the downpayment via PayPal and the remaining balance could be payed in Euro. Contact with the guide/ driver was initiated the evening before the tour - which seemed a bit close to the start but worked out fine. My guide/ driver (Farouk) is very experienced, considerate and an excellent driver - even in the challenging road conditions during raining season. I highly suggest this company, tour and guide.
