The most authentic gorilla trekking in East Africa.
Uganda is home to more than half of the world’s population of mountain gorillas. Trekking in Bwindi National Park is one of the most profound experiences there is.
Beyond the gorillas, Uganda offers Lake Victoria, the chimpanzees of Kibale National Park and the White Nile at Jinja.
Without exaggeration: many of our clients say that gorilla trekking in Bwindi is the most profound thing they have ever done. Permits are limited — we arrange them months in advance.
