Description

The ultimate primate experience, trek through local villages and lush rainforests with the breathtaking reward of finding yourself in the company of a family of gorillas. One of Africa's major highlights, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the home to approximately half of the world’s population of mountain gorillas, the world's most endangered ape. A close encounter with these amazing animals is not soon forgotten.

Itinerary

Day 1 Kampala/Southwestern Uganda

Depart Kampala at 7am and drive through magnificent countryside and tropical bamboo forest on our way to Kisoro (approx 9 hours). We will make some stops along the way; at the Equator for photographs and ‘polar-water experiment' and for lunch in Mbarara, before an afternoon arrival into Kisoro.

Day 2 Gorilla Trek (1B)

Following an early start we are led by experienced guides as we trek deep into the forest on the slopes of the volcanoes in search of a family of mountain gorillas for an amazing interactive experience.

Day 3 Kampala (1B)

Depart early for the return drive from Kisoro to Kampala. Stop just after the town of Masaka at Mpambiire drum village to see the Ugandan drum craftsmen at work. Arrive back in Kampala in the early evening, where the tour ends.
