Our Story

Harambee Gorilla Safaris was born from a journey that turned into something far greater than we ever imagined.

During a visit to Uganda, Joanne and Jackie (along with Joanne’s daughter Faith) experienced the beauty of this incredible country for the first time. It was there that we met Bob—and from that very first moment, there was an instant connection. What began as a safari quickly became a friendship that felt like family.

As we spent time together, we realized we shared the same passion: a deep love for the mountain gorillas and a desire to protect them, while also making a meaningful impact on the communities that call Uganda home.

We have returned to Uganda several times since, and each visit has only strengthened that bond. There is something truly magical about Uganda—the people, the landscapes, and the once-in-a-lifetime experience of standing face-to-face with mountain gorillas in the wild.

Looking into their eyes is something that stays with you forever

What Harambee Means

“Harambee” means all pull together.

It represents our belief that travel should do more than create unforgettable memories—it should bring people together, support communities, and help protect the places we explore.

Harambee is the foundation of everything we do.
