Answer the call of the wild and come face-to-face with one of our planet’s most majestic creatures. This unforgettable 3-day adventure takes you deep into the heart of Southwest Uganda for a once-in-a-lifetime encounter: tracking endangered mountain gorillas in the breathtaking, mist-covered Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
We believe the best adventures are shared, which is why we offer you the chance to join a small group of fellow explorers on set dates. Or, if you’re dreaming of a private journey or a romantic escape for two, you have the freedom to choose your own departure date. Your incredible story in the jungle awaits.
Your adventure begins early as your friendly driver-guide picks you up from your accommodation. We'll set off towards Southwest Uganda, watching the landscape transform from the city to the lush countryside. We'll stop for a delicious lunch at the renowned Igongo Cultural Centre before continuing our scenic drive through the beautiful, terraced hills of the Rukugiri region. By evening, you'll arrive at the edge of the mystical Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Check into your lodge, enjoy a warm dinner, and fall asleep to the sounds of the jungle.
This is the day! After an early breakfast, you'll be driven to the park headquarters for a 7:45 am briefing. By 8:30 am, you'll set off on your trek into the dense, verdant forest. The hike can be challenging (3-9 hours round-trip) but is an adventure in itself, and the reward is beyond compare. Once you find the gorillas, you'll have a full hour to sit quietly and witness their daily life—a profoundly moving experience. After your trek, you'll return to the lodge, exhausted but elated, with memories to last a lifetime.

After a final breakfast in the highlands, we'll begin our journey back to Kampala/Entebbe. We'll stop once more in Mbarara for lunch and make a special stop at the Equator line for that classic photo and a chance to pick up some last-minute souvenirs. We will then drop you off at your preferred hotel in Kampala or take you directly to Entebbe International Airport for your onward flight, filled with stories of your incredible Ugandan adventure.
