| Day
1
Arrive Entebbe Int'l Airport in the morning. Meet and greet on arrival
at the airport, then charter flight to Kayonza near Bwindi, short
drive.
Overnight - Gorilla Forest Camp (Lunch & Dinner)
Day 2
Gorilla tracking day. After breakfast take a short drive to Park
Headquarters and meet with excellent local guides and trackers who
will give a talk on the etiquette of gorilla trekking. We then hike
into the forest where the gorillas were seen the night before and
track from that point. The trekking can take from 1 to 6 hours and
climb to altitudes in excess of 7,500 feet. The terrain is rough
and at times muddy. Although the hike is physically demanding the
beauty of the forest and surrounding scenery make the trekking worthwhile.
Once the gorillas are located all fatigue is forgotten, as the experience
is often described as being the most profound natural history experience
in the world. Picnic lunches are provided and it is important to
take plenty of water. Cameras and plenty of fast speed film is recommended.
It can rain at a few minutes notice; hence waterproof clothing is
a good essential including zip lock bags for cameras and film.
Overnight - Gorilla Forest Camp (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner)
*Please note we cannot guarantee seeing Gorillas*
Day 3

Overnight - Gorilla Forest Camp (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner)
