The Award-Winning Tour Specialist
5 days Short Stay
Discover the natural beauty of Uganda, known as the “Pearl of Africa.” Journey through lush forests and rolling landscapes before experiencing one of the world’s most unforgettable wildlife encounters – trekking majestic mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. Embark on an adventure that combines breathtaking scenery, rich culture, and the thrill of meeting these gentle giants face-to-face.
Arrive at Uganda’s Entebbe International Airport, set on the shores of Lake Victoria, where you will be met and transferred to your hotel. Settle in and enjoy a welcome dinner as you prepare for the adventure ahead.
After breakfast, transfer to the airport and board your domestic flight to Kihihi Airstrip. On arrival, transfer through scenic countryside to your lodge. Here, you are on the edge of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, a UNESCO World Heritage old-growth forest, known for its incredible biodiversity and its population of endangered mountain gorillas. Take some time to relax and soak in the serene forest surroundings.
Rise early and ready for an unforgettable day. Head to the headquarters of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park to carry out the formalities and get a detailed briefing from your ranger guide. The forest here is only accessible on foot, so you’ll trek through the dense foliage, admiring the treescape and looking out for signs of one of the area’s habituated gorilla families. Once you find them, you will have a magical hour spent observing them in their natural habitat – one of the greatest wildlife encounters on the planet. After bidding the gorillas farewell, trek back to headquarters and return to your lodge for a well-earned rest.
After breakfast, transfer to Kihihi Airstrip for your flight back to Entebbe. On arrival, your driver will transfer you to your hotel. This afternoon, board a speedboat across Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest lake, for a visit to Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary. Spend time learning about chimpanzee conservation and watching these fascinating primates in their lakeside refuge. This evening, spend time relaxing at your hotel.
Enjoy breakfast before checking out. Your driver will transfer you to Entebbe International Airport for your onward flight.
