Your adventure begins with a thrilling gorilla trek in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, where you’ll have the rare opportunity to observe endangered mountain gorillas in their natural habitat.

Here, you’ll encounter elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, hippos, and a wide variety of other wildlife.

Upon arrival at Entebbe International Airport, you will be met by your driver-guide and transferred for a brief pre-departure meeting. Thereafter, you will be dropped at your hotel to relax and prepare for the exciting safari ahead.
