Gorilla tracking safaris
Organic farming

Gorilla tracking in Uganda is the most exciting lifetime experience of all time. Gorilla tracking is carried out in only two national parks of Uganda; Bwindi Impenetrable national park and Mgahinga Gorilla national park.

It is a wonderful experience to stare in to the eyes of these gentle giants; watch them in awe as they play and go about their daily activities. Each encounter is different and has its own rewards, but you are likely to enjoy the close view of adults feeding, grooming and resting as the youngsters frolic and swing from vines in a delightfully playful display.

Gorilla tracking in Uganda sometimes involves walking on steep and slippery slopes and may take anywhere between 1 hour and 8 hours so a reasonable degree of fitness is required.

Gorilla tracking in Uganda is an amazing and rather a very thrilling activity.
