Safari summary

This safari will take you to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and you will you meet face to face with the mighty mountain Gorillas. You will see them as a family and these gorilla families are familiar to humans. You will never for once feel like you in danger with the mighty animals, you will just feel as if you had been wandered into a foreign home and quietly observed the father, mothers, and children going about their daily lives. You will also visit the Batwa people and learn about their ways of living and cultures.

Located in Southwestern Uganda, Bwindi impenetrable forest National Park has the highest population of mountain gorillas in the world and is arguably the best place to see mountain gorillas.
