Mountain Gorillas Tracking & Batwa Community Visit or Canoe ride on Lake Bunyonyi

Today, you will enjoy Gorillas tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Bwindi has the biggest concentration of Gorillas, given its small size. The search for Gorillas goes through the thick untamed rainforest, where you’ll be scrambling over mossy rocks and through deep undergrowth. It isn't the easiest of activities and will be arduous, but the encounter is well worth the effort. Watching gorillas in their natural habitat is an experience that will last a lifetime. The experienced ranger guides will willingly share with you a lot of information about the history and lifestyle of the Gorillas.

After Gorillas tracking, you will choose to either go for canoe ride on Lake Bunyonyi or visit the Batwa community for them to take you through their traditions like traditional dance, beer making, setting fire before returning/checking in to Itambira Island, Seeds of Hope for your dinner & overnight stay.
