Reviews of Zicasso's Gorilla Trekking Safaris

Based on 13 verified traveler reviews.

Kenya, Uganda Luxury Vacation Review: Maasai Mara, Wildlife, Gorilla Trekking, 20-Day Trip

"This was a trip of a lifetime! The details large and small were flawless, leaving us to enjoy the trip with no worries."

Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania Tour Review: Gorilla Trekking, Big Five, Walking Safari, Migration Camp, 20 Days

The trip was exhilarating and the job done by our Zicasso travel agent was second to none.

Our trip was 20 days, with multiple locations, flights, and activities. Our agent arranged things so well, we hardly had to do anything. Guides and contacts always arrived on time and led us through each location efficiently and safely.

The gorilla trek in Rwanda was amazing. On safari, we saw the Big Five by the end of day two and saw many, many unique animal encounters. We did a walking safari one day, which was also a highlight. Our agent recommended the Lewa Conservancy as a stop and this was wonderful for seeing many black and white rhinos.

I would give our travel company a 10/10 for personal care and attention. I highly recommended them for a high-quality, memorable African adventure!
