Description

This tour is one of our scheduled and group tours that we have every first weekend of the month. The first day is a long day of driving starting in Kampala and going to any sector of either Bwindi, Ngahinga, or Volcanoes Park depending on where the Gorilla tracking permits are obtained from.

The second day is a Gorilla tracking day with one of the many groups or families of the gorillas we have in these parks. The third day is spent visiting climbing lions and returning to Kampala.


  • Depart from Kampala

    Meet the driver guide at 6:00 am at the hotel or residence and be transferred via Masaka. You will have a stopover at the equator for refreshment, and continue with the journey through Ankole land. The main sight is the Ankole long horned cattle.

    Stop for a short lunch in Mbarara, after which we reach the picturesque landscape of Kigezi with its terraced agriculture and rolling hills. Soon you will arrive in Bwindi National Park. The drive takes 10-11hours.

  • Gorilla Tracking

    Gorilla tracking, which can take a few hours or a whole day depending on the locality of the group to be tracked. A packed lunch is taken with you to the jungle sometimes. Hikers will love it, Gorilla trekking is unpredictable; it is difficult to foresee how many hours you will hike. Expect to walk long distances in steep muddy conditions sometimes with rain overhead before you encounter any gorillas.

    Your efforts will be rewarded when you have an encounter with the humble giants. For conservation purposes, the time spent with gorillas is one hour. When being briefed, the park authorities always advise clients to have a porter for the bags usually carried with you. This is optional but we strongly recommend that you take a porter with you in case you hike for long distance, its becomes difficult for clients especially the older tourists. The porters are readily available. You will have an afternoon village walk to different cultural sites including the Batwa or pygmy village.

  • Return to Kampala

    You will have an early breakfast and then transfer to the northern part of Queen Elizabeth National Park. The drive goes through the southern part of Ishasha Park. You shall have a short game drive searching for climbing lions, after which you can continue with the drive to have lunch at Kala lodge overlooking the Rift Valley. Then you will continue with the journey to reach Kampala in time before dark.
