For an immersive budget Gorilla safari from Mbarara City, we recommend a delightful 3-day itinerary. During this excursion, you’ll spend two nights in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park, ensuring an economical yet rewarding experience.
Your adventure begins as you’re picked up from any location within Mbarara City for a picturesque drive to either Mgahinga Gorilla National Park or Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. Along the way, you may savor a lunch stop at the Great Lakes Museum before continuing your journey. Traverse the captivating border town of Kabale, which shares striking vistas of the Kigezi rolling green highlands, arriving in time for a sumptuous dinner and a peaceful overnight stay.
Daybreak brings an early breakfast and the anticipation of an exhilarating day. Prepare your packed lunch, provided by the lodge, along with drinking water, and meet your driver-guide for the day’s adventure. You’ll head to the National Park offices for registration and a comprehensive briefing about forest etiquette. Your guide will help you select a Gorilla family based on your fitness level and interests, although this choice isn’t always guaranteed due to the Gorillas‘ roaming nature as they forage for food.
Set out on your journey to find the Gorillas, and once you’ve located them, you’ll be granted one precious hour to observe, follow, and capture photos and videos of these magnificent creatures. After this enchanting encounter, you’ll return to the briefing center, where you’ll receive a certificate as a token of your contribution to Mountain Gorilla conservation in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. The day concludes with relaxation, dinner, and another peaceful night at your lodge.
The final day is dedicated to a leisurely drive back to Mbarara City, marking the conclusion of your 3-day budget Gorilla safari with Trek Africa Expeditions.
