This Uganda gorillas and wildlife holiday will take you on a wonderful journey to experience the classic wildlife of the African savannah as well as the incredible gorillas of the rainforest. You will go to Queen Elizabeth National Park and see wildlife such as elephants, lions, leopards, buffalos, hippos, and much more on game drives and boat cruises. In Bwindi, you will trek through the dense forest and steep slopes for your face-to-face encounter with the endangered mountain gorillas. As a relatively short holiday, this safari manages to show you the absolute highlights of African wildlife. Beyond the wildlife, you will also get to experience the culture of the local Ugandans and learn about their ways and customs. This is a perfect safari for people whose schedule only allows a few days. Take a look at the detailed day-by-day itinerary to get a better idea of how it would work out for you. Keep in mind that our trips are fully customizable and we can tailor them to your specific needs. Next comes Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, home to the majestic gorillas that have made Uganda a popular destination among wildlife enthusiasts. Head into the forest after attending a briefing from park authorities and get the chance to see these endangered creatures up close. Enjoy two stopovers on your return journey from Bwindi to Kampala, one at a traditional drum maker and the other at the Uganda equator. We will drop you off at your accommodation Kampala after the tour is over. Please go through the itinerary below for more information about this tour.

The trip was amazing over all. Not really under the control of the trip but we had two group members that were quite unpleasant to be around. One 9Rick0 talked all the time and even answered questions we directed at the guides. They suggested to us that we switch up what trucks we sat in but that never happened, so we were always stuck in his truck - ideally the CEOs would really enforce this recommendation.

WOW WOW WOW, this was the trip of a lifetime! I felt like I got an in-depth experience in each of the countries we visited. I didn’t expect to see so many animals so up-close and I also got to know a bit about some of the local culture and tribes in the areas we visited. Seeing two species of wild apes plus elephants and big cats and zebra and hippos and antelope and beautiful birds was astounding!

Excellent tour where close encounters with a variety of animals, most notably Mountain Gorillas, are virtually guaranteed (with all the planning involved, you'd be extremely unlucky not to see Gorillas in Bwindi). On the tour you also find out about the efforts made in conserving these rare animals and how that sometimes impacts on the human residents in the area both positively and negatively. The formation of several community groups, particularly focused on providing education and sustainable employment, particularly for women, is also shown
