5 Days Gorillas & Mburo Safari

You will leave your hotel/accommodation in Kampala or Entebbe early in the morning and head to southwestern Uganda.

You will stop at the equator line for some photos and souvenirs and proceed to Mbarara where you will stop for lunch. After lunch, you will proceed to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and rest at your hotel/lodge.

Endure an early rise and join the rest of the group for a briefing by the ranger guide. With your packed lunch, a walking stick and a porter if you have the equipment, enter the impenetrable forest and begin your trekking activity. Expect trekking duration of 3-8hrs.

Follow instructions by the guide and keep maximum silence in the presence of the great apes. The maximum time allowed with gorillas is only 1 hour. Sadly you will have to leave the gorillas after one hour, but you will carry all the fond memories along.

Remember to leave nothing but a footprint and take nothing but memories and photographs. The activity is rewarding though strenuous hence return to the Buhoma lodge and spend the rest of the evening relaxing.

On this morning after a tasty breakfast, say goodbye to Gorilla sanctuary as you will drive to Lake Bunyonyi also termed as a great destination for birders due to the various numbers of birds that are available, apart from that it has eye-catching sceneries including the waters, hills, forests, islands among others.

Upon arrival, you could opt to go for a canoe along the lake or just go for a nature walk around the area. In the evening retire at the lodge and have dinner.
