3-Day Budget Friendly Gorilla Trekking Tour

Have an early breakfast at the lodge and transfer to the park headquarters for a briefing on gorilla trekking rules and guidelines. Set off into the forest with your guide and tracker, beginning the trek to find a gorilla family. The trek can take anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, depending on the gorilla's location. Once the gorillas are located, you'll spend one hour observing them as they go about their daily activities—feeding, playing, resting, and interacting with each other. After the trek, return to the park headquarters for your trekking certificate. Return to the lodge for a well-deserved rest and lunch. Optional: Visit a nearby community to learn about local culture, including the Batwa pygmies, and their traditional ways of life or The Ivy River trail which is 13 km long hiking trail in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (BINP). Ivy River trail is notably the oldest hiking trail that passes through the lush Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Return and relax at the lodge for dinner.

Enjoy breakfast at the lodge, then check out. Begin the drive back to Kampala or Entebbe, with stops along the way for photos and souvenirs. Stop for lunch in Mbarara or Masaka town. Continue your journey back, passing through the equator where you can take photos and purchase local crafts. Arrive in Kampala or Entebbe in the late afternoon or early evening, marking the end of your safari.
