GORILLAS AND WILDLIFE SAFARIS IN UGANDA – 5 DAYS
DAY ONE: WARM WELCOME
Arrive at Entebbe
International airport. Meet, greet and transfer to
Imperial Resort Beach Hotel for overnight (BB).
DAY TWO: DAY TOURS
Drive on the southbound
road; passing charming attractions en route: look at
royal drum makers, enjoy the Equator, stop at the

impenetrable Bwindi Forest via Kabale. Arrive late
afternoon. [Approximate driving time: 9 hours] O/N:

DAY THREE: GORILLA
TRACKING
Go gorilla tracking
(subject to availability of gorilla permits at time
of booking), carrying a packed lunch. You will be
accompanied by a guide and porters. You will then
set off to the thick forest in search of gorillas.
The terrain can be difficult, with steep slopes
covered in dense vegetation that gives the park its
name. In addition, the altitude of 5200 feet and
more means participants do need to be physically
fit. The time taken to track the gorillas varies
enormously, from as little as half an hour to as
much as 8 hours before one returns to camp.
Difficulty, however, is not impossibility and coming
face to face with the great primates is well worth
it! O/N: Bwindi Tented Camp or Buhoma Homestead (FB).
DAY FOUR: LAKE MBURO
Start for Mbarara,
enjoying natural attractions en route. Proceed to
Lake Mburo National Park, Uganda’s most conspicuous
