Bwindi Impenetrable National Park - Lake Bunyonyi

Spend a day tracking the endangered mountain gorillas, with up to an hour spent in their presence. See mothers keeping infants close as they knucklewalk on three limbs, and watch scampering toddlers reined in by an attentive father, whose role is to protect his family. When you encounter a mountain gorilla in the wild, there is no mistaking the bond that exists between primate and man, and no escaping the poignant fact that these creatures lie on the brink of extinction. Later you will transfer to Lake Bunyonyi and enjoy the stunning views of the lake. Your overnight stay will be at resort by the lake.
