Today is the highlight of your safari! After breakfast, transfer to the park headquarters for a gorilla trekking briefing.
With your ranger guide, enter the dense rainforest to search for a mountain gorilla family. The trek can last from 1 to 6 hours, depending on the gorillas’ movements.
Once found, spend one magical hour observing them up close — a life-changing encounter you’ll never forget.
After the trek, return to your lodge for relaxation and an evening at leisure.
After breakfast, begin your journey back to Kampala or continue to Kigali, Rwanda via the Cyanika Border. Arrive in the afternoon for drop-off at your hotel or the airport.
