Today after an early morning breakfast, you will head out for briefing at the park offices. While there, you will join other tourists and be informed about what to expect during the gorilla habituation experience.
After the briefing, you will start trekking into the forest accompanied by Rangers, Trackers and Researcher. Unlike standard gorilla tracking where visitors are allowed only one hour with the gorillas, with the habituation experience, you will be with the primates for four hours.
As you track the gorillas, you will encounter several forest creatures including birds, butterflies, smaller primates and insects. Listen and observe what the researchers are doing. You may be asked to participate in making gorilla calls, gathering samples or naming group members.
After spending your four hours with the gorillas, you will go back to the lodge for rest and relaxation.
Overnight will be at Gorilla Leisure Lodge (FB)
