A Gorilla Pathfinders guide will pick you up from a designated location and transfer you to Entebbe Airport for your inbound flight to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, landing at Kihihi airstrip.
After landing, a Gorilla Pathfinders guide will eagerly wait to transfer you by road to your private overnight lodge. There are two flight departures from Entebbe to Bwindi—one in the morning and another in the afternoon, allowing you to choose the flight that best suits your schedule. Morning flights typically depart Entebbe for Bwindi at 7:45am while afternoon flights leave at 12:30pm daily. For the southern sectors of Bwindi, only one morning flight departs Entebbe for Kisoro airstrip each day at 7:45am due to challenging weather conditions in the area during the morning hours. Inbound flights usually take about 1 hour and 30 minutes, depending on the day's routing.
Depending on your arrival time, here are some optional activities like a forest walk and a Batwa community walk.
After enjoying your early morning breakfast and packing your picnic lunch, you will head to the park headquarters to register and join other guests for a briefing on the do's and don'ts of the activity. Gorilla tracking will commence at exactly 8:00am.
As you enter the forest, you will trek through thick creepers and undergrowth with the help of your guides and porters in search of the gorillas. This trek can take anywhere from 1 hour to 7 hours. The park's steep, densely forested landscape is rich with animal tracks, providing tourist access.
You will be just meters away from these magnificent apes during your trek, observing their daily lives and activities. Mountain gorillas are extremely rare, with only an estimated 880 remaining worldwide, making this an unforgettable experience!
Note: Mountain gorillas are wild animals, and sightings cannot be guaranteed; however, viewing success rates exceed 90%.
After breakfast, our guide will transfer you to either Kihihi or Kisolo airstrip for your scheduled flight back to Entebbe International Airport. If you have a connecting international flight, you can depart Uganda upon arrival. Alternatively, you may choose to transfer to a hotel of your choice in Entebbe or Kampala.
If you have extra time in Uganda, this safari tour can be customized to suit your interests, allowing you to enjoy some of the many activities available in Entebbe and throughout the country. You could explore Kampala, visit the Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary or the Uganda Wildlife Education Center, take a luxury boat cruise on Lake Victoria, or embark on a short trip to Jinja—the adventure capital of East Africa—where you can experience Grade 5 white-water rafting, quad biking, horse riding and bungee jumping.

Every now and then a destination becomes so famous that people start questioning whether it can possibly live up to its own reputation. Serengeti National Park is one of those places. You have seen the photographs, watched the documentaries, read the articles, and somewhere in the back of your mind a small but persistent voice is asking whether the reality can genuinely match the legend. Whether all those wildebeest, all those lion prides, all that extraordinary golden savannah stretching to the horizon is truly as breathtaking in person as it looks on a screen. The short answer is yes. The longer answer is that the Serengeti does not just live up to its reputation it quietly exceeds it in ways that no photograph or documentary has ever managed to fully capture, and here is exactly why.
