Well deserved 5 stars. Exceeded my hopes. Kori Safaris was wonderful! As we planned, the Kori Safaris team worked patiently and diligently with us to customize our itinerary so that we could see everything we wanted to see in Uganda. They provided thoughtful advice, guidance, and recommendations. Our guide Isaac was an absolute highlight of the trip! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked so hard to make everything a fantastic experience. After a couple weeks I genuinely consider him now to be a dear friend. Finally, Uganda will take your breath away. It truly is the pearl of Africa. From seeing all big 5, including rhinos, to chimpanzees, to gorillas, we couldn’t have asked for a more magical and moving country to visit.

Breathtaking memories We booked a 5-day tour at Kori Safari. This included gorilla trekking, two game drives and a boat safari in Queen Elisabeth National Park. It was really worth it. In addition to the gorillas, we could observe lions, a leopard, giant elephant families, hippos, crocodiles, monkeys and buffalo. These are memories that will last forever. Despite the fact that we traveled in the rainy season, it always rained only briefly and we were able to implement everything as planned. Our driver Paul transported us safely from A to B and provided us with information about the country. He was also very ambitious at the game drives to show us all the animals. Staying tuned has paid off. The accommodations were an absolute dream and also the food was very delicious. The service in Uganda is 1 a. We can only recommend the trip.

Once-in-a-lifetime Mountain Gorilla Experience Amazing experience overall with Kori Safaris. We were given multiple options and budgets for tours, and ended up selecting a 4-day experience including 2 gorilla treks, one of which was the 4 hour habituation trek in Bwindi, and Rwandan golden monkeys tour with "budget" accommodations (lodgings were very nice and not what I would consider budget at all!). Maggie made the booking process super simple, and Isaac was our incredible private guide. He was so kind and knowledgeable, answered all of our questions and showcased his beautiful country of Uganda brilliantly. Highly recommend.

Once in a lifetime experience- highly recommended This was an incredible trip. Kori’s Safari rep Maggie was very helpful getting everything booked. Isaac, our guide, was kind, patient and educational. We especially enjoyed learning about Rwanda and Uganda from Isaac, and the 4 hour habituation experience with the gorillas!

Fantastic safari with Kori Had a fantastic 4 day safari starting from Kigali with Kori safaris. Started with river safari and game drive in Queen Elizabeth NP followed by Gorilla trekking in Bwindi NP. The overall experience was great - my guide Isaac was very knowledgeable and had a lot to share. Always felt safe and had a great time. Moreover, big thanks to Maggie for being so attentive and always making sure I was prepared before the safari started. She is amazing. Strongly recommend.

5 days with Gorilla and Chimpanzee! We made the 5 day hike to see Gorillas and Chimpanzees. It was a beautiful and exciting experience, we saw a Gorilla family with the little one in the forest, after about an hour and a half of walking (but you can meet them much earlier, it depends on luck!). The organization of the tour from Italy was done by Maggie, who followed us very well and answered all our many questions. Our driver and guide, Isaac, is the best you can get. A very knowledgeable person, helpful and very kind!We chose the luxury option and the hotels we stayed in were really fantastic and very clean, surrounded by nature and Queen Elizabeth Park.It was an amazing 5 days!!!This was a unique experience that we can recommend to everyone, a memory that we will carry with us for a lifetime!Thanks to everyone at Kori Safaris for making it possible, kudos to them!

2nd trip with Kori Safari's and will likely not be the last! Kori Safari's outdo themselves once again. This was my second tour with Kori and I will likely only book safari tours in Uganda with them. In 2020, my father and I went gorilla trekking in Bwindi and did several game drives at Queen Elizabeth NP. Paul was our guide and we loves our time with him. Just yesterday, in July 2025, my husband and I finished our four day Murchison Falls and Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary tour led by Isaac. This was my third time at Murchison Falls and this was the best tour and over all experience I've ever had there. Isaac was very knowledgeable about the park and wildlife. He was also a great conversationalist. I have only conversed with Maggie via email and WhatsApp but every single time she goes above and beyond with communication and flexibility with planning. Unfortunately back in 2019 and 2020, my mother had to cancel two separate trips due to unexpected circumstances, both cancelations were handled with grace and flexibility by Maggie. One more thing, I am Muslim and found that the entire Kori team was very adaptable with my requests for halal meals and breaks do prayers. All butchers in Uganda are Muslim so the meat is often automatically halal, but Isaac was very patient with my need for reassurance.10/10, my entire family recommends Kori Safaris!

An amazing 2-day trip to see the gorillas Went on a 2-day trip for a 1-day gorilla trek with our amazing driver Scodious, who my friend and I loved chatting with. She handled the long drive to and from Kigali and our multiple border crossings like a pro. All the logistics were taken care of,from airport pickup to housing to food to gorilla permits,which made the trip extremely easy for us. I’d highly recommend Kori Safaris, and _especially_ Scodious!
