Gorilla Trekking and Batwa Cultural Experience

After briefing, you'll venture into Bwindi Forest on foot and enter a world suspended outside of time! The undergrowth thrives with diverse plants, mammals, and birds. It's a grueling task to press on through walls of vines and vegetation as your hearts pump from effort and anticipation. It may be minutes or hours before you come upon a gorilla family but when you finally do, the encounter sweeps you into a timeless moment. You'll watch the juveniles play as the impressive adults groom and keep a sly but watchful eye on their human visitors and in this moment a feeling of kinship rises to close the gap that grew between you and your primate relatives over millennia. You'll descend elated and arrested in a timeless moment to be told and retold for years to come.
