UGANDA GORILLA SAFARI - 3 DAYS MOUNTAIN GORILLA TREKKING TOUR IN UGANDA

Day 1: Kampala - Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
After early breakfast, start on your long drive to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. You will have a brief stop over at the Equator for a photographic opportunity and also listen to some interesting experience of water turning clockwise at the equator.

The drive will take you through the grasslands of Ankole. Further west, you will enjoy the famous long horned cattle before proceeding to the highlands of Kigezi. Visitors usually refer to the beautifully terraced hills in this part of Uganda as the "Switzerland of Africa”. Stop for lunch in Mbarara. Continue the journey throughout the beautiful scenery. Arrive in Bwindi National park (home of the rare mountain gorillas) in the evening.

Apart from Gorillas, a more variety of primates are found in this dense natural forest. They include the red and blue tailed monkeys, colubus and velvet monkeys. This bushy and green forest has a number of streams running through it with Munyaga river being the biggest.

Day 2: Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi Gorilla Forest
After an early breakfast, you walk to the park offices for briefing by your guides. You will then set off to your expedition. The thrill of your encounter in this natural forest will erase the difficulties of the potentially strenuous trek. Bring jungle boots and rain jackets because the park is often wet.

The time you take to find gorillas will depend on the movement of these gentle giants.
Visitors spend one hour with the gorillas watching them go about with their activities. You are likely to enjoy the close view of adults feeding, grooming and resting as the youngsters frolic and swing from vines in delightfully playful display.

After your memorable time with the gorillas, you will return to your camp exhilarated but very excited! You will relieve the encounter with friends over a drink. Have dinner and over night. Or Should you have the energy, you will go for a village walk, see how Ugandans live, visit the local medicine man!
