3-Day Bwindi Gorilla Tracking Tour with Lake Bunyonyi from Kampala

• You will be picked up by one of our drivers/guides and transferred to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. The drive takes you through southwestern Uganda by road, crossing the Equator and continuing to Mbarara for lunch, before passing through savannah grasslands to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. The scenic journey through the Kigezi Highlands, commonly referred to as "the Switzerland of Uganda," and banana plantations brings you to the Gorilla Sanctuary of Bwindi National Park.
• Upon arrival at Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, you will mainly check in to your accommodation and relax as you prepare for the Bwindi gorilla tracking experience the next day.

Accommodation: Gorilla Mist Camp

Meal plan: lunch, dinner and drinking water

• After an early breakfast and a briefing by a ranger guide, you will enter the Gorilla Sanctuary for your adventure. The beauty of this rainforest is spectacular. The area offers a dramatic, steeply forested landscape and is incredibly dense, yet crisscrossed by numerous animal trails that allow access to tourists. The time taken and the terrain vary with the movements of these great primates.
• Once you locate a gorilla group, you will be allowed one hour in their presence. The thrill of spending time observing these gentle and endangered giants is an awesome and exciting experience to be long savoured.
• Return to your lodge for lunch, and thereafter check out for a transfer to Lake Bunyonyi. Lake Bunyonyi is framed by lush, green-terraced hills that reach heights of 2,200-2,478 m, but it is the 29 islands of various shapes and sizes scattered across the water that make it most magical - you could admire them all day.

Accommodation: Bunyonyi Rock Resort

Meal plan: lunch, dinner and drinking water

• You will have a relaxed breakfast, then you may opt to enjoy a swim in the lake before setting off on the journey to Entebbe. Alternatively, embark directly on your return journey to Entebbe Airport or your booked accommodation.
• Expect en route stopovers in Mbarara town for lunch and at the Uganda Equator line mark in Kayabwe for some memorable photos, if you did not stop there on the first day, and perhaps to buy some art pieces of interest.
• Proceed with the journey, arriving in the late afternoon or evening for drop-off at the airport or your booked accommodation. We recommend a late afternoon or evening outbound flight schedule for this day if you are flying out. We hope to see you, or any referral, on your next visit.
