Embarking on a flying safari to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park is a testament to the rising popularity of swift and efficient travel options, particularly for those who wish to minimize road travel. Trek Africa Expeditions takes pride in organizing seamless flying safaris to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park and other key tourist destinations in Uganda. This allows travelers to navigate the country effortlessly through air travel, providing an unparalleled experience.

While road trips offer the charm of close-range exploration, flying safaris present an enticing alternative for those seeking to avoid extended hours on the road. This mode of travel not only allows for the exploration of multiple destinations in a short timeframe but also facilitates access to remote and otherwise challenging-to-reach locations across the country.

Historically, Gorilla safaris to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park involved arduous road journeys, deterring potential visitors due to the 9-10 hours of travel time from Kampala or Entebbe. The advent of flying safaris has transformed the accessibility of this less congested national park. Aerolink Uganda, a local flight operator based in Entebbe International Airport, facilitates flights that take approximately one and a half hours. Upon landing at Kisoro Airfield, our adept and professional driver guides ensure a seamless transfer to your reserved lodge. This provides ample time for relaxation and participation in park activities before dinner and an overnight stay.

It’s essential to note that the weather in Kisoro district, situated near Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, can be unpredictable. Flights are scheduled in the morning when conditions are calm, as afternoon winds may render flying unfavorable. Occasionally, flights may connect via Kasese and Kihihi Airfields if there are clients to drop off or pick up en route.

Optimal Timing for a Flying Safari to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park

Mgahinga Gorilla National Park welcomes visitors throughout the year, but the optimal time for a flying safari is during the dry months of December to March and June to October. Although tracking is easier in dry conditions, the Mountain Gorillas and Golden Monkeys may move farther in search of food. However, Gorilla tracking can still be enjoyed during the wet season, though the chances of wildlife sightings are slightly reduced.

Booking for flying safaris is open year-round, and travelers are advised to secure their arrangements in advance, including Gorilla permits, to avoid sellouts. Trek Africa Expeditions recommends booking at least two months before the desired date, but last-minute arrangements can be accommodated if services are available.
