a whole day depending on the location of the apes.
Keep an eye out for forest species such as buffaloes, elephants, black fronted duikers and bush bucks. NB: Do not forget
to carry your packed lunches.
It is a humbling experience to stand just meters from man’s distant cousins as they eat rest, play and bond with their
young. Follow the mountain gorillas as they range freely in the impenetrable forest and discover their gorgeous natural
habitat and the many species they share it with.
