Gorilla tracking Adventure

Start the day with early breakfast before setting off for the highlight of Gorilla trekking. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the home to the forest giants that are cousins to human beings, the mountain gorillas. Together with a specialized guide you head out into the jungle for an unforgettable experience. The trek takes you through beautiful nature and you finally get to spend one hour in the area where the gorillas are. Besides the gorillas this Impenetrable forest is full of birds, butterflies and plant species plus forest hog, forest elephants, statungas and dikers. After the trekking your guide takes you down from the mountains to the lodge just at the edge of the Ishasha part of Queen Elizabeth NP.

Morning and Evening Game Drive in Ishasah

It is now time for the second highlight of this gorilla trekking and tree-climbing lions safari, a day dedicated to search for tree-climbing lions. The southern Ishasha sector of Queen Elizabeth National Park is known for its tree-climbing lions. In the early morning you head out on to the savannah to search the big fig-trees for lions as well as hopefully see topis, elephants and buffaloes. After the morning game-drive we head back to the lodge for lunch and some relaxation to later in the afternoon go back to the park to hopefully get some more good sightings.
