Upon your arrival at Entebbe International Airport, our professional drive guide will greet you and provide a briefing. The journey is quite long, lasting about 7 hours, with a lunch break along the way.
Despite the length, the drive showcases various landscapes, including tropical rainforests, savannah fields, and the terraced hills of Kigezi, often referred to as the Switzerland of East Africa.
Once we reach Bwindi, we will check into the lodge and then head to the Batwa community for a cultural experience with these forest pygmies. You will have the remainder of the day to relax as you prepare for the adventure the following day.

Gorilla Trekking and Transfer to Lake Bunyonyi for Canoe Ride

Gorilla Trekking and Transfer to Lake Bunyonyi for Canoe Ride

After having breakfast early in the morning, proceed to a briefing where we will meet the fantastic local guides and trackers. After that, you will start the wonderful gorilla trek.
The trek can last anywhere from 1 to 6 hours, depending on the family's location
The ground is uneven and muddy, requiring good physical fitness. Despite the physical challenges of the hike, the stunning beauty of the forest and the surrounding landscape make the effort worthwhile.
It is advisable to carry plenty of water during the trek.
Bringing cameras and a good supply of fast-speed film is also suggested. Since this is a tropical rainforest, rain can occur unexpectedly, so it's important to bring waterproof clothing, including zip-lock bags for your cameras and film.
Additionally, you should wear strong hiking or walking shoes, long pants, gloves, and a raincoat.
Afterward, we will transfer to Lake Bunyonyi.
