Based at Bisate Lodge on 5 Feb 2019
"Rather easy trekking to these very beautiful primates. We found them digging potatoes in the fields next to the forest, they were not shy at all and you approach them very close, sometimes a bit strange that they are (already) so used to humans...
One big photo opportunity, no need to bring your telephoto!" Read more about this whole safari

"The Golden Monkey trek was well handled, but nothing special.
It would be better to do a 2nd day of gorilla trekking, as many people did." Read more about this whole safari

"The walk to 'find' the monkeys was really enjoyable. We were a big group, but that didn't negatively impact either the walk or the monkey experience. The guides are informative and fun. I'm pleased I understood that hiring a porter is a good way of contributing to the local economy."

"very easy walk to see these monkeys. They were basically eating/ playing in a field near to the fringes of a forest.
Easy to see and they would come really close up." Read more about this whole safari

This is a good "warm up" before the more arduous gorilla treks." Read more about this whole safari
