How to organize a 7 day fly-in gorilla trekking and wildlife safari, when to go gorilla tracking, and what to wear for gorilla tracking

Day1: Drive to Bwindi Forest National Park

They live in the thick impenetrable forest in gorilla trekking families headed by a silverback which is the dominant male. The journey is quite long but scenic as you view the rolling hills of Kigezi, meandering rivers and so much more. Arrive in the evening ready for dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Gorilla trekking in Bwindi Forest

Rise up early for breakfast and head to the ranger station for briefing. Remember to carry your lunch and drinking water to quench your thirst as you trek to see the gorillas. The time of finding the gorillas is unpredictable because of their regular movements. Carry on walking through the thick forest where you may have the chance of seeing other primates like the olive baboons, vervet monkeys, grey checked mangabey and so much more. The gorillas may get to see you before you do because they are very keen with foreigners in there environ. When you finally get to see them, wait to take there pictures because the ranger guide has to first observe them then finally he will advise you to take the pictures. Observe there movement and the way they play from the vines. Return the the lodge and relax

Day 3: Gorilla trekking the second day

Having viewed the gorillas the first day, head to the ranger station for another day of gorillas trekking. You will be briefed about the gorillas again because there behavior changes and that is why you follow the trail where they were last seen the previous day. Carry on and when you finally get to see them, stay with them for just an hour observing them and taking there pictures. Return to the lodge and relax.
