      Ask for prices

    Before you pay any operator

    A licence shows a company may trade. It does not vouch for every trip, so these checks are worth a few emails.

    1. Check the licence yourself

      Find the company on the official register and match the licence number. If it is new, ask for the number and check again later.

    2. Get the itinerary in writing

      Each day, each lodge, the vehicle type and what is included: permits, park entry, meals, drinks, guide and fuel.

    3. Ask whose name is on the permits

      Gorilla and chimpanzee permits are issued per person by the wildlife authority. Ask for a copy once they are bought.

    4. Understand the deposit and refunds

      Agree in writing how much is due when, and what you get back if you cancel or a permit date changes.

    5. Pay the company, not a person

      Pay into an account in the company's name, by card or bank transfer, and keep every receipt.

    6. Treat logos as claims

      Association logos on a website are the company's own claim. The association can confirm membership.
