MOUNTAIN GORILLA SAFARIS

African Mountain Gorillas : - Bwindi Uganda ,Volcanes Rwanda , Congo

One of the few Places in Africa to with ever green vegetation, flourished throughout year after year is a home to roughly half of the world’s mountain gorillas. The national park has 90 mammal species, including 11 primates of which the black-and-white colobus, with white lovely flowing tail is the most prominent, the forest birding ranks is the best in Uganda with 23 highly localised Albertine Rift endemics bird species stumbling through thick dripping rainforest, and only metres ahead, one can calmly observe the oddly familiar face of a 200kg mountain gorilla. Besides, looking deep into the expressive brown eyes of the gentle giants is surely the most exciting and emotional wildlife encounter that Africa has to offer and can’t be found else where in the all world.

SEE THE MOUNTAIN GORILLAS IN THE WILD

Most visitors to Uganda always wonder who is watching who? Find out for yourself in western Uganda's premier gorilla reserve: “Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park” where the chances of encountering the great apes on a gorilla trekking adventure are very high indeed. For those on a tight time schedule we would recommend either a four day Gorilla Trekking Safari or three day Gorilla Trekking Adventure and those with more time, there are longer itineraries which blend gorilla trekking with game viewing and chimp tracking like eight day Chimps, Gorillas and Game Adventure or six day gorillas and wildlife Safari, all of which have a single aim to deliver a once-in-a-lifetime wildlife experience. Gorilla permits are limited, so you have to book early especially in peak season (December to January and July to August) though Gorilla trekking in Uganda is a year-round activity but there are definitely drier months than others.

However, eight permits per day are sold for each of the gorilla groups (families) at UWA Headquarters in Kampala. Book at least 4 months (but not more than one year) in advance to ensure that requested dates are available.Additionally, Gorilla tracking in Bwindi can be strenuous, therefore ensure physical fitness. Bring jungle boots and rain jackets because the park is often wet. Your gorilla tracking experience starts at 8:30 am local time and occasionally lasts the whole day! For conservation reasons, visits to the gorillas are tightly controlled. Therefore,be part of the life time fun experience during your vacation holiday in Africa.
