Along the way, you'll also have the chance to stop for lunch at a local restaurant and stretch your legs.

Day 2: Gorilla Trekking at Bwindi National Park

Rise early and enjoy a hearty breakfast before heading to the park headquarters for a pre-trek briefing by your guide.

During the briefing, you'll receive important information about gorilla trekking rules and regulations, as well as an overview of what to expect during the trek.

Following the briefing, you'll be divided into small groups and assigned a gorilla family to trek.

Embark on a thrilling trek through the dense rainforest, led by experienced guides and trackers who will help navigate the rugged terrain and locate the gorillas.

The duration and difficulty of the trek can vary depending on the location of the gorilla family, but the experience of encountering these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat is truly unforgettable.

Spend an hour observing the gorillas as they go about their daily activities, from feeding and grooming to playing and interacting with each other.

After the trek, return to your accommodation for a well-deserved rest and to reflect on the incredible experience.

En route, you'll pass through Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda's most popular savanna park, renowned for its wildlife diversity.

Upon reaching Queen Elizabeth National Park, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy a boat trip along the Kazinga Channel, a natural waterway that connects Lake Edward and Lake George.

The boat trip offers excellent wildlife viewing opportunities, with chances to see hippos, crocodiles, buffalo, elephants, and a variety of bird species along the banks of the channel.
