Gorilla Trekking Uganda from Nairobi Kenya — Unlock a new dimension of wildlife exploration by adding a Gorilla trekking experience in Uganda to your itinerary after your classic big five safari in Kenya. While Kenya is renowned for the big five and the spectacular great migration, it lacks the majestic mountain gorillas. Enhance your wildlife journey by seamlessly transitioning to gorilla trekking in Uganda from Nairobi.
Many travelers, having explored the rich wildlife of Kenya’s National Parks, find it enticing to venture into the lush landscapes of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga National Park in Uganda. Although Virunga National Park in Congo and Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda also offer gorilla trekking, current safety concerns make Uganda an optimal choice for this awe-inspiring adventure.
One of the primary factors influencing the choice of Uganda is the safety it provides to travelers, coupled with the affordability of gorilla permits. In Uganda, the cost of a gorilla permit is USD800 per person per trek for foreign nonresidents, USD700 per person per trek for foreign residents, and a discounted rate of UGX300,000 per person per trek for East African citizens and residents.
Embark on a seamless journey by flying from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport to Entebbe International Airport. Upon arrival, you can choose to drive to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park or opt for a domestic flight to Bwindi or Mgahinga National Park for the ultimate gorilla trekking experience in Uganda.
For your convenience, Kenya Airways operates multiple flights daily between Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and Entebbe International Airport. Alternatively, Rwanda Air presents itself as an excellent alternative to Kenya Airways. Trek Africa Expeditions ensures a smooth transition by arranging airport transfers from Entebbe to your accommodation, especially for those arriving on late evening flights.
