Day 1: Transfer from Kigali to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

A stopover for lunch will be made en route. The dense rainforest of Bwindi, famous for its gorilla population, is one of the most fertile and rich in the world, being home to a variety of primates, plants, and tropical birds. On arrival, you will have a visit to Batwa pygmy’s community for a culture visit, dinner and an overnight stay at the lodge amidst the forests and verdant hills of Bwindi as you wait for the next day’s adventure.
Day 2: Gorilla Tracking and Transfer to Kigali
You will wake up for an early morning breakfast and proceed to the briefing point. You will get to enjoy the highlight of your trip—Gorilla trekking, which may last from 2 to 6 hours depending on the group you are visiting. You will trek through the rainforest and bamboo-covered slopes, accompanied by a Uganda Wildlife Authority guide and other trackers, in search of a mountain gorilla family. The walk can sometimes be tough and long, but when you catch a glimpse of the magnificent silverback, any discomforts will be quickly forgotten. Due to the nature of the activity, you will have a packed lunch. After gorilla trekking, you will drive through the terraced hills to Kigali city and upon arrival your driver will drop you off at the airport.
