Transfer to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

Get on the morning flight (0700) to Bwindi. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is located in south-western Uganda and is said to be Africa’s oldest rainforest. The flight takes 1hr and 30mins. If you are going by road, it will take you 9 hours to reach Bwindi. Enjoy the scenic drive. Bwindi is known world over for its excellent gorilla-sighting opportunities - the forest is home to half of the remaining mountain gorillas on earth. This gorilla experience takes place among a rugged landscape of dense jungle, cascading waterfalls, sparkling mountain streams, deep valleys, and steep ridges.
The untouched forest has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its breath-taking natural beauty and unique ecological significance, and aside from the amazing gorilla interactions, there are other draw cards such as a network of forest walks, over 340 species of bird to spot, and a variety of brightly-coloured butterflies to identify.

Day 3

Gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

Gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

After an early morning breakfast, you will transfer to the Park headquarters for briefing about the dos and don’ts while with the gorillas, then after you will be taken to the starting point for tracking your allocated gorilla family in Bwindi Forest. Each gorilla family is assigned to a group of not more than eight trekkers and that is why it is recommended that you book your gorilla permit in advance. This trek starts at 8:00am and may take from 40 minutes up to 6 hours depending on how far the mountain gorillas have moved into the forest. Gorilla trekking can be a bit strenuous and as such requires a certain level of fitness. Once you find the gorillas, you will be allowed that one precious hour to observe the gorillas. Take photos as well as audio and visual recordings.
