This is the highlight of this 7 day’s safari! It is the day of meeting face-to-face with the jungle dwellers, mountain gorillas. The experience begins as early as 6:30am with breakfast, pre-trek briefing at the ranger station and later on trekking begins at 8:00am. During the trek, you will be accompanied by armed ranger guides and porters (for those who wish to hire any) and trackers who are responsible for locating the allocated family.
Along the way, you may be lucky to spot other forest dwellers including forest duikers, impressive forest birds, forest elephants, monkeys, baboons, and abundant species of flora.
Bwindi is known for its impressive population of mountain gorillas, with a population of more than 600 individuals, almost half the world’s total population.
Eventually, you will meet your allotted gorilla family deep in the jungles loitering freely in its destined territory. It’s a true magical encounter! The one hour given to encounter these primates is never regrettable, as you get to learn about them, their family set up, history, conservation status, social life, hierarchy and photography. It’s a rewarding experience.
After this adventure, you will retreat back to the starting point for picnic lunch break or drive to the lodge for lunch buffet.
In the evening, you may choose to go for Batwa village walk or just relax at the balcony of your room gazing at the lush forest, enjoy its impressive sights and soothing sounds.
