Gorilla Trekking

This is a lifetime experince! Trek through the early morning mist in the Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, which is home to roughly half of the world’s seven hundred remaining mountain gorillas. The trekking can be demanding and take as long as a full day – a water bottle and good walking shoes or boots are highly recommended. Experienced local guides will lead you through the thick mountain jungle.

Once we locate the gorillas, we will observe them for about an hour (this time is strictly regulated by the Uganda Wildlife Authority). Photography is permitted, although not with the use of flash (there are also restrictions on the use of video cameras). With or without a camera, however, this is one of the most breathtaking and emotional experiences Africa can offer and is certainly one that will remain with you long after your journey.
