Bwindi Gorilla Safari - 3 Days

Mountain GorillaDay 1: Kampala - Bwindi Gorilla National Park

The drive takes you through savannah grasslands seeing banana plantations and herds of Ankole cattle with their incredible long curving horns. Then you ascend into the Kigezi highlands, known as the "Switzerland of Africa", with terraced farming and mountain scenery to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Dinner and overnight at Buhoma.

Day 2: Mountain Gorilla Tracking in the Gorilla Sanctuary
Early morning entry into the Gorilla sanctuary. The rainforest is spectacular. It offers a dramatic steeply forested landscape and is incredibly dense, crisscrossed by numerous animal trails allowing access to tourists. Mammals include the endangered Mt. Gorillas, rare golden monkey, buffalo, elephant, black-fronted duiker, bushbuck, leopard, giant forest hog etc. This park is best known for the fascinating flora. The time taken and the terrain varies according to the movements of the marvelous primates. The trill of observing the gorillas is a rare, moving and exciting adventure. The gorilla is a shy and peaceful animal. Dinner and overnight at Buhoma.

Day 3: Return Trip to Kampala
After an early morning breakfast drive back to Kampala with a stopover in Mbarara for lunch.
