Day 2: Gorilla Tracking
Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
8h · Admission ticket not included
After breakfast, you will take part in gorilla tracking. Your tour will be a very special, exciting journey - along the forested slopes, through tangled vines, past bushes and bamboo plants, before you finally see the gorillas. On the tour, your ranger will show you traces of previous activities of the gorillas, such as droppings, nests and nibbled bamboo shoots. You will learn a lot of interesting facts about the Ugandan giants and if things get slippery, a ranger will be happy to lend you his hand. It is an emotional, moving and very impressive experience to come face to face with a gorilla.
