    Every itinerary starts from scratch: your dates, your budget, the wildlife you came for.

  • Talk to the people planning it

    WhatsApp, phone or email, straight to the team building your trip.

Questions, answered

What travellers ask us before they book.

  • In Uganda a gorilla permit is US$800 per person for treks up to 31 December 2026, and US$1,000 for treks from 1 January 2027. In Rwanda it is US$1,500. Permits are sold by the park authorities in limited numbers, so we secure yours as soon as your dates are set.
