A 4 days gorilla trekking adventure in Uganda was a truly magical experience. From the breathtaking landscapes to the awe-inspiring gorillas, every moment of this journey was filled with wonder and enchantment. Uganda is a country that truly captures the essence of Africa, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to explore its beauty. If you are a nature lover and seeking a once-in-a-lifetime experience, I highly recommend embarking on a gorilla trekking tour in Uganda. It is an adventure that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime.

Itinerary

You will be picked up by our guide from the airport/your hotel in Entebbe/Kampala/Kigali after an early morning breakfast at 7:00 am. You will be briefed about the whole safari before you travel to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park which is found in the southwestern part of Uganda. Along the way, there is a local drum and craft-making community so you will have a visit here.

Then have a stopover at the Equator to take photos, also feel free to buy some crafts and souvenirs as you head to Mbarara town where you will have your lunch. Thereafter, proceed to Bwindi whereby you will arrive in the late afternoon. Check in at the lodge, relax in the evening and have dinner.

On this day, be early to raise and have your breakfast early enough and pack your lunch. Afterwards, you will be taken to the park headquarters by your driver's guide. You'll have a briefing from the park rangers at 8:00 am concerning the rules in the park, and what to do and not to do when you meet up with the gorillas. Tracking gorillas takes between 2 and 8 hours.

Thereafter, start off with tracking and ensure you carried enough drinking water, strong shoes, a jacket and a walking stick. When you meet up with the gorillas it's your dream come true as it will be a great time watching the playful juveniles, the silver-backs and also other gentle giants feed the young ones.

Take as much photos as you want with your camera flash off. Later, hike back and transfer to Lake Bunyonyi. Upon arrival, go for a boat trip, you'll be able to see various birds, and visit islands (around 29 islands are in the lake). Take as much photographs as you can. Your overnight is at Bunyonyi Safari Resort.
