GORILLA TRACKING
Day1.
Drive to Bwindi Impenetrable national park, home of the mountain gorillas. The journey will take you through different trading centres and a series of different landscapes, crossing different ethic boundaries. It will take you from the metropolitan centre to deep down the villages until you reach the dense forest where gorillas live.
Day2.
The long awaited Gorilla experience day is here. After breakfast, you will be driven to the briefing point to get more information on how to behave while in the jungle with the gorillas. This briefing is done by a ranger who is also ready for any questions before you set off. Dressed properly with hiking shoes, you set off with a ranger to the place where the trackers have located the amazing apes. You can also hire a porter at a small fee to help carrying your rucksack for ease of movement. Meeting the Gorillas is an amazing experience. Since we are all different, our reactions will also vary. But trust me; it is a wonderful one hour experience.
Depending on your condition after Gorilla trekking, you can as well go for another nature walk to see the water falls and the pygmies who once lived in the forest where gorillas still live. (Optional). These will show you how they lived there and the activities they carried out.
Day3.
It is time to say farewell to the jungle. After breakfast you will head back in the direction of Kampala. Hope your experience with the mountain gorillas and the jungle did not leave you the same. Your visit helps to protect not only the gorillas, but other wild animals that live in the forest of Bwindi Impenetrable national park.
