Gorilla Safari 5 days

This gorilla safari takes you to Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for mountain gorilla tracking and a game drive. Bwindi National Park is located in South Western Uganda on the edge of the western rift valley. The park is home to over 350 endangered Mountain Gorillas, which are quite possibly the most awe-inspiring animals to be found in Africa. There are also 346 species of birds and over 200 species of butterflies. Gorilla trekking is the major tourist activity in Bwindi with four groups currently available daily to tourists interested in mountain gorilla tracking. The tour groups include the Mubare gorilla group (10 gorillas; 1 silverback gorilla) which was opened for tourism in 1993, Habinyanja gorilla group (18 gorillas, 2 silverback gorillas) was ready in July 1998. Rusheguru group (10 members, 1silver back gorilla) was opened in July 2002 while the Nkuringo gorilla group (19 gorillas, 2 silver back gorillas) was opened for tourism in April 2004. Gorilla tracking in Bwindi can be challenging so it’s best to have an average level of fitness. It starts at 8:30 a.m. local time and can last from a few hours to a day depending on the movement of these giant apes.
