After your early morning breakfast, you will be picked by an Otter African Safaris guide and
start your journey to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Kisoro in South Western Uganda.
First stop will be at the Equator in Kayabwe for memorable photos and the famous water
experiment that shows that earth is separated into the Northern and Southern Hemisphere
and you will have a chance to enjoy both the hemispheres.
A lunch break will be in MBARARA at Igongo Cultural Centre and after you will continue your
journey to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
The journey will not be a short one as it might last up to 9 Hours but it is a journey worth it as
there is a wide range of beautiful scenery from Kampala to Kisoro.
Accommodation: Rushaga Gorilla Lodge/ Ichumbi Gorilla Lodge/ Bakiga Lodge/ Ride 4 a
Woman.
Meal Plan: Lunch and Dinner.
You will wake up early in the morning for breakfast and then report at the park headquarters
at 7:30am for a briefing about the dos and don’ts while with the gorillas. Remember to carry
your packed lunch and enough drinking water since you may stay in the forest up to
afternoon in search of these gentle giants in their natural environment. Gorilla tracking
exercise is physically demanding but an exciting activity. You may need to hire a porter to
assist you during tracking and these are readily available at the park headquarters. Time
allowed to spend with gorillas is 1 hour when you have found them and this is enough to ask
all the questions about their behaviour as you will take as many pictures as you want.
After the gorilla tracking you will be awarded a Gorilla Trekking certificate to show that you
successfully tracked gorillas in Bwindi impenetrable National Park. Return to the lodge after
tracking and freshen up. In the evening, Batwa pygmies will be invited to entertain you with
their dances, storytelling after you have dinner and overnight.
