Gorilla trekking in Bwindi Forest
Wake up early in the morning, have breakfast and get the necessary trekking equipment plus your drinking water and lunchbox. Meet your driver and go to the park headquarters for briefing. It is from here that you will get to learn about the likes and the dislikes of gorillas. You will be assigned a group of gorillas to track and a ranger with whom to go trekking.
Then venture into the jungles of the forest and start the search for these great apes. Upon meeting the gorillas, you will be given one hour to spend with them, as you record videos and take pictures. It is an opportunity for you to learn about their mysteries. During the trek you may meet other animal and bird species which are residents of the area.
