The hardest hike I have ever done-- beating through thorns and dense bush, it took us 4 hours to find the gorillas -- wow, it was worth it. Incredible to see them lounging and foraging and eating and sleeping. A mother and tiny baby, a silverback, a few females, another competing male. So docile, in general.. Really incredible.

I didn't have money for the gorilla trekking but decided to go to Bwindi for hiking. Even without trekking gorillas I had a great time in the park. It is gorgeous.

Seeing the mountain Gorillas at the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was an amazing experience. The area surrounding the national park is also spectacular, however there are distinctive areas to the park and getting between locations can take 3-4 hours! Choosing accommodation near the selected Gorilla location is a must, something we didn't appreciate and something our guides didn't arrange very well for us.

The highlight of my trip, standing just a few feet away from a silver back is a souvenir that will never forget. The hike to find the gorillas can be difficult and a minimum of fitness is required. Great guides very friendly and knowledgeable.

It was amazing to be out on foot in the jungle, walking for over three hours in search of a gorilla family. Once you find the gorilla family, you know the hard hike through the heat and jungle was worth it.

To see the gorillas at Bwindi was an experience that I will always remember and to see the passion with the guides showed how important the conservation of these animals are for the future.

A big highlight to be amongst the Mountain Gorillas, hard walking at times (steep, slippery) but then to see the amazing Gorillas up close made all the uphill work worth every step.
