The cost of booking a gorilla trekking safari in Uganda or
Rwanda is determined by the category of tour you wish to take. Most packages
for a gorilla tracking Uganda safari are categorised into luxury gorilla
safaris, mid range and budget gorilla packages. You may opt to mix these categories
to experience their services.
You must have a budget of what you hope to spend on your
gorilla trek tour. This is to reduce on the chance of going bankrupt while on
your tour. A gorilla tracking safari requires advance planning. Most of the
accommodation lodges offer full board
packages for accommodation while on a gorilla safari that means food and breakfast are catered for in there
pricing others offer water as a complementary for staying with the. However,
majority of the accommodations in Bwindi and volcanoes National park exclude
drinks off there packages. You must have enough money on you to cater for the
bill for drinks. Carrying cash is the best advice because most up country
accommodations do not use credit cards as a form of payment.
Traveling as solo traveller give you a chance to a personal
touch while on safari but you bare the cost of every thing that is required for
a gorilla trekking safari. Sharing a gorilla trek tour with another traveller is
a point to save some money and share the safari costs with someone. Others opt to join gorilla trekking group
scheduled safaris but these are shared with people you may not be familiar with
and it is best not to travel with you children if booking scheduled gorilla
safaris.

How fit must I be in
a gorilla trekking Safari
Gorilla trekking involves hiking to find the gorillas so you
must have some bit of fitness to manoeuvre. It is not a guarantee that you
should always be fit but for purposes of enjoyment, a gorilla trekking safari
is more comfortable if you are fit. Together with your ranger guide, you slowly
hike to the slopes where you may find the gorillas and in case it is a rainy
season, they get down to the bottom.
What is the best family for tracking gorillas?
The gorilla tracking experience is the same throughout Uganda
and Rwanda. You cannot spot out which gorilla family is best for gorilla
trekking because we all have different purposes for visiting the gorillas. Some
what to see the most energetic silverback, other wish to trek a gorilla group
that is very close, others want the most tedious gorilla family, other wish to
see a family with the youngest infant and several others. Gorillas keep moving
in the forest searching for food and other
