4 Day Gorilla Safari
Day 1: Transfer to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park
Your private guide will pick you up in Kampala and then head southwest through Uganda’s picturesque countryside and the verdant Kigezi highlands en route to Bwindi Forest National Park. This will include a lunch stop in Mbarara before we continue through savannah grasslands filled with banana plantations and the famous long horned Ankole cows.
Day 2: Gorilla Trekking Experience and Community Visit
Today is the reason why so many travelers head specifically to Uganda, Gorilla Trekking. Directly after breakfast we will head out to the park headquarters for our briefing from the head UWA guide. There you will meet your personal guide and rangers who will lead you through the forest in pursuit of the gorillas. Depending upon your physical capabilities and desire to hike, the hike through the jungle can take 2-8 hours depending on the location of your specific family of gorillas. Upon finding the family of gorillas, you will be allowed to spend an entire hour with them to photograph and observe them. Your personal guide and rangers are incredibly experienced with the gorillas and will give you guidance as they ensure your safety throughout the duration of the experience. After your trek, return to your lodge where you will be serenaded by local Batwa singers and dancers before dinner.
Day 3: Transfer to Lake Bunyonyi and Sunset Lake Cruise
After breakfast in the morning you and your private guide will depart Bwindi en route to beautiful Lake Bunyonyi. Lake Bunyoni boasts of some of the best panoramic views in Uganda and is a relaxation destination. Drink in the views of the lake and surrounding hillsides with a cocktail in hand or explore the lake with your private guide on the water.
Day 4: Transfer to Kampala and Departure
After breakfast, you and your private guide will depart Lake Bunyoni with another lunch stop in Mbarara and another stop at the equator for some photographs or Ugandan curios to take home. After we drop you off in Kampala, this marks the end of your Gorilla Trekking Experience with Safaris By Jon..
