Tour Overview
\n<\/strong><\/span>Gorilla Safari Uganda and Tours involving Lake Mburo National Park\u00a0and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest Mountain Gorillas in Uganda\u2013 5 Days<\/p>\n

Arrive in Uganda
\n<\/strong><\/span>Upon arrival at Entebbe International Airport, our safari guide will meet you and drive you to Kampala, ready for your trip launch the next morning.<\/p>\n

Day 1: Depart for Lake Mburo, Brief Game Drive and Boat Ride
\n<\/strong><\/span>Depart by road to Lake Mburo National Park, which will take approximately 3-4 hours. You will have a break in your journey to visit the Royal Drum makers, stand at t<\/p>\n

he Equator for a photographic opportunity, then continue to Lake Mburo National Park. This Park is an extension of the Tanzanian plains with big herds of zebra, impala, eland and other ungulates.<\/p>\n

Bird watching opportunities are superb – this is one of the best places to find African finfoot and papyrus bush shrike. After checking in, you will take a late afternoon game drive or a boat canoe. Overnight in Mantana Tented Camp, Rwonyo Camp or UWA Bandas (Full Board)<\/p>\n

Day 2: Lake Mburo Nature Walk, Head to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
\n<\/strong><\/span>Start an early guided nature walk, taking you to the Salt Lick Area. A well-located wood stage offers an opportunity to see at least four different species of animals at any one point, while they lick the salty soil. Go back to camp for breakfast, after which you will head off for Kabale, where we will stop for lunch.<\/p>\n

Continue on your journey, which offers excellent views, including the triangular peaks of the Virunga volcanoes of Rwanda and the Congo. The road then drops down into a valley, to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, the habitat of the mountain gorillas. Overnight at Gorilla Resort or Buhoma Community Bandas (Full Board)<\/p>\n

Day 3: The Day for Gorilla Tracking Safari in Uganda
\n<\/strong><\/span>Get up early for a warm breakfast to give you the energy required for gorilla tracking. Before 8:00 am, report to the ranger station for registration and a talk by one of the rangers; the guides will then take you through the bush, pushing your way through the undergrowth and parting thick creepers, to track the gorillas. (This trek can take from half an hour to 5 hours \u2013 a reasonable degree of fitness is required as well as a sturdy pair of walking shoes).<\/p>\n

Sit in the forest among the gorillas, listening to them grumble to each other, and marvel at the sheer size of the dominant male; the silverback. It is an extraordinary feeling, sitting in the dense rainforest, knowing you are with a few of the last remaining mountain gorillas. It\u2019s amazing to think there are only about 650 of these beautiful creatures remaining.<\/p>\n

If you have the energy this afternoon, take a guided walk on the Munyaga River trail, which is a superlative short walk. This trail leads to three delightful shining waterfalls, and there is an abundance of tree ferns, epiphytic ferns, orchids and Bwindi\u2019s colorful array of butterflies. Here you may also see birds and primates from the forest edge. Alternatively, have a guided village walk and see how the Ugandans live. Overnight at Gorilla Resort or Buhoma Community Bandas (Full Board)<\/p>\n

Day 4: Drive to Kampala
\n<\/strong><\/span>After a morning breakfast, you will be driven back to Kampala stopping en-route for lunch in Masaka town, arriving in the evening. On arrival in Kampala, your safari guide will transfer you to your hotel. If you have energy, your guide will take you around the African Craft markets along Buganda road or to the National Theatre, where you can buy Souvenirs for yourself. Overnight at Speke Hotel, Mossa Courts or Hotel Africana (Full Board)<\/p>\n

Day 5: Airport Transfer
\n<\/strong><\/span>Your safari guide will collect you from your hotel and transfer you to Entebbe International Airport for your outbound flight.<\/p>\n
