Detailed Itinerary of 4 Days Gorillas & Wildlife Safari
Day 1: Transfer to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

The journey then continues to Mbarara where there will be a stopover stop for lunch. After lunch, drive onwards; a drive that will take you through Uganda’s rolling green hills through the highlands, also known as the ‘Switzerland of Uganda in the Kisoro area before making the final journey to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home of the mountain gorilla. Check-in at your accommodation for dinner and overnight at Bakiga Lodge.
Day 2: Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
After breakfast, you will transfer to the park headquarters for the briefing before you set off at 9:00 am through the tracks to search for the humble giants. You will go with a packed lunch because it’s hard to determine how long it will take you to meet these great apes. However, the time of gorilla trekking ranges between 2 and 9 hours depending on the movement of the giant African primates.
The activity is tedious, it entails walking along steep hilly tracks however encountering these great relatives of man erases all the poor memories/ hardships you went through in trying to find them.

In the afternoon you will go for a boat ride on the Kazinga channel that connects the lakes, Edward and George. The launch cruise will reward you with a game like hippos, elephants, buffaloes, and birds at the shores before retiring to your accommodation for dinner and overnight at Bush Lodge.
Day 4: Game drive and transfer to Kampala
Very early in the morning before dawn, you will wake up to have a cup of coffee or a glass of water/ juice then proceed for an early morning game drive.
