In Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park, habitat of close to half of the remaining mountain gorillas in the whole world, experience the opportunity to peacefully view these species in their protected habituated areas. The government of Uganda saw it fit to habituate these endangered species to prevent their extinction and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was introduced to facilitate and support the protection of these giants. Usually, this mountain gorilla trekking safari begins from Kampala.

Wake up very early in the morning for breakfast on day two of the 3-day safari and meet with your driver guide with a packed lunch to transfer to the park headquarters for a gorilla trekking briefing. You will be briefed about the safety guidelines and allocated guides and groups for trekking gorillas. Setting off is at exactly 8:00 am, the ranger guides make sure everyone has packed lunch, enough drinking water, comfortable safe shoes, and a porter (if needed) to help carry your backpack so you can comfortably enjoy your gorilla trekking experience.
Observing and photographing the gentle giants (mountain gorillas) is so breathtaking. You are literally looking at creatures so human in every aspect. Be prepared as trekking of the mountain gorillas may take 1 hour to 7 hours depending on where your allocated gorilla family may be at. After trekking gorillas, return to the lodge and have a relaxed evening or a walk to the pygmy families on the outskirts of the forest. Have dinner and overnight at the lodge.
