From soup to nuts this place has something for everyone. If you dont care to see gorillas the birding is fantastic. All of the Bwindi park rangers are fine but if you can arrange to be with "Sunday" you will get 20+ years of Gorilla affection and understanding.

Seeing mountain gorillas in the wild is such a special experience - I'm not sure much will top it! Especially when the gorillas decided to be our guests while we had dinner at Volcanoes Bwindi Safari Lodge as well!

Bwindi is more on the well trodden tourist path - as much as Uganda can be! You will see other tourists here, and the trekking is generally full - but Bwindi itself still maintains a small, quiet village charm.

Fantastic and unique opportunity to encounter the majestic mountain gorilla!

After one long day drive on the bumpy Ugandan roads, all available accommodations provide clean rooms and friendly customer service, local food and even cold beers! Next day after early morning birding in the garden, the training comes on how to behave with and approach to gorillas. Then the hiking and gorilla tracking comes, which is almost certainly rewarded with the actual sighting them! This is the most fantastic 30-60 minutes of the entire trip but no doubt, it worth the efforts!

we were very lucky, the weather was good. The way to the gorillas was exhausting (especially for my wife) but we reach the gorillas after one and a half hour. We were lucky to see the whole family (silverback with babies) in a meadow, so we had enough light for photos (if you like I can send you more photos) . After an hour we go back in an very happy mood.

Simply stunning surroundings and completely unspoilt. The development around the park HQ seems tasteful and the Gorilla trekking experience itself is one of the greatest experiences of my life.

Fantastic opportunity to see the endangered mountain gorillas. We spent two days here tracking gorillas and both days resulted in different interactions with the animals. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!

The mountain gorillas are the only real reason to visit the park, but on their own they make it an amazing destination.

How often do you have to step out of the path of an oncoming Mountain Gorilla and have him look you in the eyes as he goes by?
