Today after an early breakfast, your guide will pick you up at 7:00 a.m. in Kampala and will transfer you to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, in South Western Uganda. Go through a beautiful part of the country often referred to as ‘the Switzerland of Africa’. You will see beautiful terrace hills as you drive through a bamboo forest zone. On a clear day, you will have great views of the Virunga Mountains
You will have lunch en route before proceeding to the park. You will arrive at the lodge in time for dinner
Today after an early breakfast, you will be transferred to the park headquarters for a briefing about gorilla tracking. You will encounter one of Bwindi’s endangered mountain gorillas. For most people, this is the absolute highlight of their tour in Uganda.
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park boasts both mountain gorillas and chimpanzees—the only forest in Africa that can make this claim. It also hosts five other species of primates, 113 species of mammals, over 200 species of butterflies, and 360 species of birds. The gorillas you track are habituated and can tolerate the presence of humans for a brief period of time, every day.
The time taken to track the gorillas can be as few as 2 hours to as many as 7 hours. Once the gorillas have been located, your group will be allowed a maximum of one hour with them. Coming face-to-face with a mountain gorilla is a truly humbling and emotional experience. You will have your packed lunch and afterward, you will transfer to Lake Bunyonyi.
After breakfast at the lodge, you will drive back to Kampala or Entebbe Airport with a stopover at the equator for a photo moment and souvenir shopping.

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.
