Bwindi is home to almost half of the world’s remaining mountain gorillas, making it one of the most important places on Earth for gorilla trekking. The experience of tracking gorillas through dense rainforest and observing them up close is widely considered life-changing.

The mountain gorillas are what we came for. What to say, just magic.

Did two gorilla treks on two consecutive days. Exhausting and exhilerating. Worth every step. Grateful for the porters who provided assistance navigating the jungle underbrush.

Incredible gorilla experience - very expensive, but not a lot of introduction or information. *Ride 4 a Woman is an incredible, active community that supports local women in many ways - truly wonderful.

Incredible
This was truly one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had. The trek through the forest wasn’t very long—about 15 minutes before we encountered the first group of tracking rangers, and another 10 minutes later, we spotted the oldest member of the gorilla group. From there, we ventured deeper into the forest and eventually found ourselves surrounded by the entire group. Being in their natural habitat, quietly observing them, was a powerful and unforgettable moment that left us with memories to treasure for a lifetime.
Yes, it’s a costly adventure—but absolutely worth every single penny. If you ever get the opportunity, don’t hesitate—go for it!

Mountain Gorilla hiking was tiring and thrilling. It is so beautiful hiking there. Definitely "Gorillas in the Mist". Follow all tour guidelines and you won't be sorry that you did this. We are 64 and 70 years old and did the 10-mile mountain hike. Muddy, slippery, thorns and stinging plants so be prepared! Hire a porter- you won't be sorry you did this either!
