    I did the Into the Wilderness tour in March with my mom as a birthday gift for her 60th — something I really wanted us to experience together. And honestly… it was incredible. We saw giraffes, mountain gorillas (!!!), and sooo many birds. The moment with the gorillas was just unreal. The whole trip felt super well put together but also really personal. You can tell that the people running it actually care about what they do and want you to have a good experience. Very recommendable!

    I've always dreamed of seeing gorillas in their natural habitat, and Tourilla Tours made that dream a reality. The entire trip was flawlessly executed, and the guides were incredibly respectful of the environment and the animals. Their commitment to responsible tourism is evident in every aspect of their operation. I returned home with memories that will last a lifetime.
