Have early breakfast, carry enough drinking water and transfer to the briefing point by 7.30am. While here, you will carry out registration and join others for a gorilla trekking briefing about the precautions and guidelines of the gorilla trekking activity. You will then be assigned a gorilla group, meet the ranger guide and start the trek into the forest.
Gorilla trekking in Bwindi can be challenging but the experience of finally seeing mountain gorillas in their natural habitat is beyond what you can imagine. The one hour spent with the gorillas in the wild is indeed a lifetime experience. They are creatures that resemble and behave like man and live in peaceful and organized families led by a dominant male.
At the end of the trek, you will return to the park headquaters and information centre to pick certificates. You will then meet the driver guide and transfer back to kigali for departure or to the lodge if there changes in programme.
