UGANDA - GORILLA ENCOUNTER TIMELINE:
Day 1
Entebbe
Arrive and meet your guide for your expedition briefing.
Day 2
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
Fly to this UNESCO World Heritage Site and settle into the
Gorilla Forest Camp, your accommodation for the next three days.
Explore the park's rainforest habitat, walking the Munyaga Falls
or Mazabajuro Loop trails or joining an expert-led birding
excursion.
Days 3 - 4
Tracking the Mountain Gorillas
Only 700 mountain gorillas survive worldwide. With your
permits, you are allowed to track on foot either of two family
groups, habituated to tolerate human presence for brief periods
each day. Tracking with an experienced guide may take anywhere
from half an hour to nine hours. Once you have located the
gorillas, you are allowed one hour with them. In two days, you
will see the gorillas twice, more than enough opportunity to
savor the bond that exists between ape and human.
Day 5
Entebbe
Fly to Entebbe for overnight. Then depart for home.
"The speed of
the silverback's mock charge left me little time to assume my
submissive pose. But it was all an act, just his way of saying,
"Keep your distance.
