We recently undertook a 13 day safari tour of Uganda which included a gorilla trek, a chimp habituation experience, tracking lions and leopards and walking with a guide to track rhinos. Kassim was our guide and he was determined to ensure that we achieved our bucket list of things to see and do. We saw a multitude of animals including some tree climbing lions which he spotted well in advance of us even realising they were there. Kassim was an excellent guide and we enjoyed his company. He was courteous, punctual and very careful with guest safety being paramount. The paperwork was all in order and our holiday went ever so smoothly. Talking to Kassim was like talking to a friend as he shared his knowledge about Uganda and spoke about his family including what life was like growing up in a village in Uganda. He had a great sense of humour once you got to know him. We were particularly touched by his generous nature. He bought fruit for us to eat along the way and, on occasions, would stop and share this fruit with children. We have wonderful memories as Kassim went out of his way to make this a very special holiday.

A trip to Uganda with Kassim as your guide is unimaginable, he a warm, informative guide and nature lover...

We went on a tour to to Queen Elizabeth park and Kassim was an amazing tour guide. He was professional, patient, kind and nice to hang out with. We would repeat.

Incredible experience! We went with ATP Tours to visit the mountain gorillas at Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda. Kassim was a wonderful friendly guide who drove us safely to and from Kampala and was a great guy to get to know. Thank you Kassim! A note about government permits to see the gorillas: They are relatively expensive but well worth it, especially as a chunk of the permit fees go to local communities, who are more and more valuing the conservation of these unique animals. Make sure you apply for your permits early as they book out. We invested in two days, to ensure that we would not be set back by bad weather or travel delays or illness, and ended up successful on both days. One day we trekked a bit further than the other, and the terrain and family groups were quite different on both days, so we were really glad. The gorillas are just breathtaking. If you get the chance to visit them, DO IT. We were really impressed by the commitment of the rangers and other staff who work tirelessly to protect the gorillas. I will treasure the memory of this experience forever.
