In our travellers' words.
Thanks for the most spectacular chimpanzee and gorilla safari in Bwindi National park. What an experience! Special thanks to Lydia who organized it and always checked on us while en route. Two thumbs up.
I booked a tour with Lydia from Kigali to Bwindi for the gorilla trekking. Scords was an amazing guide and everything was perfectly organized! Can only recommend...
