Bwindi Gorilla Safari Uganda 3 days 2 nights

Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is located in southwestern Uganda across the steep ridges of the Albertine Rift Valley. This ancient rainforest is one of the few in Africa to have flourished and a home to half of the world’s endangered population of mountain gorillas. Looking into the expressive brown eyes of these giants is surely the most exciting and pungent wildlife encounter Uganda has to offer! Apart from gorilla trekking Tour, the park boosts of 90 mammal species, including 11 primates and prominent bird species. It is a treasure chest of flora and fauna with ten gorilla groups currently available to be visited by only eight persons per group on daily basis. However, strict rules have to be followed to prevent behavioral disturbances and transmission of diseases. 

Safari Highlights:
• Gorilla tracking
• The equator
• Cultural experiences
• Delicious local food
• Spacious rooms

Itinerary

Day 1- Leave Kampala in the morning and drive southwards. A first stop over at the Equator, a famous spot for photography. For the rest of the journey, view the long horned Ankole cattle, papyrus, acacia woodland and terraced landscape of Kigezi highlands on your way to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Lunch enroute in Mbarara. Dinner and overnight at the lodge/camp. You can choose between classic, midrange and budget accommodation.

 

Day 2 - Gorilla tracking in the tropical rain forest

After an early breakfast and briefing from the guides, set off for the gorilla tracking in the forest sanctuary. The activity starts at 8.00am. You need to carry packed lunch, drinking water, rain jacket and jungle boots while the rangers will provide you with a walking stick. The time taken to find the gorillas varies according to the movements of these marvelous primates. An encounter with an earth shaking 350 pound silver back or a baby gorilla is very exciting and an unforgettable experience! Dinner and overnight at your lodge/ camp.
