The gorilla holiday

Kenya and 1 other country between 6 Aug 2018 and 18 Aug 2018

Trip rating: Excellent
"The trip has been excellent. We could entirely relax as we had always someone taking care of us, especially on arrival at the airports. Richard Trillo has been always very responsive and helpful in the planning phase. The guides and the drivers and all the people we met have been extremely skilled and helpful."

Good trekking, to be done before the gorilla trekking. After it would be disappointing

"An amazing experience"

15 Aug 2018 • Morning excursion

To meet the gorillas was an incredible experience. We did two safaris in two consecutive days. The first time we found the gorillas (Ntambara family, 12 gorillas, 1.5 hours of steep hiking) in a thick bush where it was difficult to see them unless you were in a very specific position. The second day we saw the Sabyinyo family (17 gorillas, 1 hour of easy walking). We could admire many gorillas for a long time. An amazing experience!
