Discover Bwindi Impenetrable forest; the home of Mountain Gorillas, birds, primates and unique cultural allure... Welcome!
Safari Highlights
This 4 days/ 3nights safari takes you to the misty Bwindi Impenetrable forest, which harbours more than half the population of the remaining 720 Mountain Gorillas. Bwindi Impenetrable forest offers a unique birding opportunities, cultural experiences, and scenic allure of stunning hills and lush vegetation inhabited by elusive primates and pygmies.
Gorilla tracking is the most enchanting experience in the African jungles. The encounter gets more exciting as you approach the gorillas when they realize there are strangers in their territory. They welcome you with loud calls, jumpin g over to the tree canopies and the Silverback (head of the family) hitting its chest to show off its strength in defending its territory. You will have a moment of silence as you are enjoying the sounds of the jungle while your cameras are smiling at the majestic apes and beautiful sceneries.
