Arrival and Transfer to Bwindi NP by Road
Meet your Agasaro guide and drive to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, approx. 9 - 11 hours’ drive with en-route lunch.
Bwindi National Park is one of the few large expanses of forest in East Africa, where lowland and mountain habitats meet. Bwindi is one of the richest ecosystems in East Africa. The park contains almost one-half of the world’s population of the endangered Mountain Gorilla, making it an extremely valuable conservation site. Bwindi is also home to several endangered bird species with very limited ranges, and acts as an important catchment area for many rivers, supplying water for agriculture in the surrounding region.

Gorilla Trekking
Following an early breakfast at the lodge, travel to the Park Headquarters in Bwindi Forest to meet your guides for the day and begin your gorilla-tracking experience. Experienced guides and trackers will accompany your party on an early morning trek.
Few words can describe the thrill of this lifetime experience! Coming face to face with mountain gorillas is a rare wildlife encounter that is exhilarating, humbling, and enthralling. Experienced guides and trackers will accompany your party on an early morning trek into the dense rainforest on the steep mountain slopes. Please note that gorilla tracking is strenuous with treks ranging from 45 mins up to eight hours, at high altitudes in hot African conditions. The thrill of the hour you spend quietly observing these gentle giants once you find them is so worth the trek to get there! Although mountain gorillas are wild animals and sightings cannot be guaranteed, viewing success rates are over 95%.
