Undeniably the most unique primate that survives in the forgotten forests of Africa is the gorilla, both the mountain gorilla and the lowland gorilla.
In contrast to the six billion human beings living on our crowded planet, there are only some seven hundred mountain gorillas left on the borders of Uganda, Rwanda and Congo.
Seeing mountain gorillas is an unforgettable experience. Cregor Adventures, in partnership with the No. 1 gorilla safari company, has created an unforgettable voyage into the misty forests of Africa, giving you a privileged insight into the fascinating world of the great apes. Your journey will be an amazing experience, thanks to unrivalled expertise. Led by outstanding guides, you will stay at unique and intimate eco-lodges near the gorilla and chimpanzee forests.
Our partner is an award winning pioneer in ecotourism, ensuring our safaris respect the culture of local communities, the fragility of the environment and the need to use resources in a sustainable way. Over the past fourteen years they have been at the forefront of mountain gorilla tourism and are the only safari company to have signed the UN Kinshasa Declaration on Great Apes.
A personal note: I have always been fascinated and enchanted by mountain gorillas. I have waited many years for the opportunity and the privilege to sit amongst these magical creatures. Last year was finally MY time. And it did not disappoint. In fact, it was even more magical than I could have ever imagined. If this is finally YOUR time, please call us with any questions about this “once in a lifetime adventure!”
