Pioneers of gorilla and chimpanzee ecotourism in Uganda and Rwanda since 1997, Volcanoes Safaris has been at the forefront of reviving gorilla and chimpanzee ecotourism in Uganda and Rwanda. The Volcanoes team is excited to share the rich culture, history, and hospitality traditions of the Great Lakes Region of Africa. They look forward to welcoming you to their lodges.
Established in 2009, the Volcanoes Safaris Partnership Trust (VSPT) connects luxury lodges to local communities for long-term, self-sustaining projects focused on community enrichment, great ape conservation, habitat restoration, and human-wildlife conflict reduction. Funding is sourced from safari bookings and private donations. Guests at Volcanoes Lodges have the opportunity to visit VSPT projects, including various activities at Kyambura Gorge Lodge, Bwindi Lodge, Mount Gahinga Lodge, and Virunga Lodge. Private donations support community projects, and VSPT products are available for purchase at the lodges.
This was our first trip to South America and we were a little nervous. But Adventure Life made things so easy! All our questions were answered before we left, and our guide, Vidal, was amazing! He gave us enough space to explore without rushing us along. He also knew where the best picture taking opportunities were, which was great.

Just as she did last time we booked with Adventure Life, Franny really listened to what we wanted for our trip and went the extra mile to help us build the perfect itinerary.

Amazing assistance! Kevin and his team were so helpful and really gave us great advice. They quickly understood exactly what we were looking for and within a matter of days we had booked our holiday of a lifetime. I would definitely recommend to others.

I was on a trip to the UK while arranging another trip for next year. Was able to work with email and a short call to secure our spot on a tall ship cruise. Good company to work with so far.

I think it was very helpful that Franny and I spoke on the phone. I think she had a better idea of what we were looking for, and she planned a great itinerary for us!

I've just started the process, but Tilly has been very helpful and has a great personality that puts a traveler at ease. I think the paperwork has just begun so I can't give an overall rating of the whole experience. So far, so good.
