2022-23 GORILLA TREKKING SAFARI OFFERS

Gorilla trekking is an out-door activity where tourists are allowed to see
mountain gorillas for one hour after purchasing a gorilla permit in Uganda and
or Rwanda. On every East African Safari traveller’s bucket list is gorilla
trekking in the tropical jungles of Uganda and Rwanda. Endless Plains Africa has
been in the forefront of creating unforgettable memories of seeing the mountain
gorilla in the last decade (we have reviews to show off) and we celebrate this
achievement by continuing to take our travelers through thick, misty, wet and
impenetrable jungles and Rwanda’s Volcanoes to spend those memorable 60 minutes
with the mighty giant cousin and his family.
We specialize in preparing gorilla trekking safaris in Uganda and Rwanda. Check
our blog for first hand information on gorilla permits prices and availability,
which gorilla family you should track, when is the best time to visit mountain
gorillas, what to pack, how to get there and what should be the best choice of
accommodation. Take a private or group gorilla safari depending on your budget,
include something else on the trip like a classic wildlife safari or take a
shorter route through Kigali in Rwanda—choosing the best destination route is
quite important for a great gorilla tracking trip.


GORILLA HABITUATION EXPERIENCE

Gorilla Habituation Experience is a new and unique way of spending a great
wildlife holiday in the African jungles that offers a fantastic opportunity to
spend up to four hours amongst a family of the remarkable mountain gorilla.
Rather than an all-to-brief 60 minutes in their company, observe and photograph
them interact, play and groom one another at a gentler pace paying the same
price you would pay in Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park. This is a one time
chance to take part in the valuable task of habituating gorillas to the presence
of humans.

There are just two gorilla families that are currently being habituated, in the
dense foliage of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Trek deep into the trees in
search of these sociable creatures, led by highly trained trackers and guides.
Pick up the trail of clues that they have left behind as they roam through the
forest. After a challenging trek through the green wilderness, eventually reach
the family’s location. Approach cautiously, getting close to these powerful yet
intelligent creatures.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)

ANSWERED!

1What is gorilla trekking?
Gorilla trekking is an activity where tourists/ people go searching for gorillas
in the wild (not actual dictionary definition). Gorilla trekking is currently
available in three African countries of Uganda, Rwanda and Democratic Republic
of Congo. The process of seeing gorillas involves hiking or trekking in search
for the rare mountain gorillas. One needs to acquire a gorilla permit for Bwindi
National Park, Mgahinga, Volcanoes NP or Virunga to be able to see these
mountain gorillas. The process of gorilla trekking normally starts with an early
morning briefing at respective park head quarters, then a hike or walk into the
forest following the trail used by mountain gorillas and once found, you spend
only one hour with the mountain gorillas. You will then return back and be
offered a certificate. The trek itself may take up to 30 minutes or three
quarters of the day but once you find gorillas, you are allowed to spend only
one hour with them.
2What is gorilla habituation experience?
Gorilla habituation experience is a new gorilla trekking experience only taking
place in the southern part of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Gorilla
habituation is a four hour gorilla trek which was introduced in 2014 to cater
for tourists that have less time but want to spend more hours with mountain
gorillas. This four hour gorilla trek only utilizes gorilla families under
habituation and tourists are able to see gorillas while participating in
activities geared to making these wild mountain gorillas get used to human
beings. A gorilla habituation permit costs USD1500 and gives you four hours with
mountain gorillas. Only four people are allowed to see these gorillas in Bwindi
National Park. We do organize gorilla habituation experience safaris at
affordable prices.
3When is the best time to trek gorillas?
Every client wants to get the best out of the fee paid for gorilla trekking in
Uganda and Rwanda in Bwindi, Mgahinga or Volcanoes NP and the first question
that arises is-When is the best time for gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda?
While mountain gorillas in Uganda and Rwanda can be trekked throughout the whole
year, drier months of June, July, August, and early September then December up
to February are the most preferred. There is no guarantee that it won’t rain as
Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a tropical rain forest and its climate is
influenced by micro conditions of the area. During high season gorilla permits
to visit gorillas in Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park and Bwindi National Park
is at USD1500.00 and USD600.00 per person respectively. For those who are price
sensitive, should take advantage of rwanda low season gorilla permits at
USD1050.00 to book a Rwanda gorilla trek. Read More about best time for gorilla
trekking.
4How much is a gorilla permit in Uganda or Rwanda?
A gorilla permit is a document/card that is obtained from Uganda Wildlife
Authority for the case of Uganda and Rwanda Development Board in the case of
Rwanda to allow you spend one hour with the mountain gorillas in Bwindi
Impenetrable National Park and Volcanoes National Park respectively. Currently
Rwanda gorilla permit costs USD1500.00 for Non residents. Uganda gorilla permits
to visit mountain gorillas in Bwindi National Park and Mgahinga cost USD600.00
(Non residents) USD500.00 for Foreign Residents. Read more about gorilla
tracking and permit booking.
5Help me understand Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
Bwindi Impenetrable National park is located in south western Uganda and is
divided into four regions. Buhoma region in the North, Ruhija region in the
east, Rushaga and Nkuringo in the south. Each region has given habituated
gorillas families for gorilla tracking. If you are to trek gorillas in Bwindi
Impenetrable National Park, then you need to mind about a specific region where
you are going as this will affect the Lodge to be booked, gorilla permit as well
as your transport. Contact C Contact Encounter Africa safaris on details about
Bwindi gorilla treks and holidays.
6When should I book a gorilla permit?
We advise you to book your Rwanda or Ugandagorilla permit at least three months
in advance to shortage most especially during high season. Please contact us
with the date when you intend to book gorilla tracking Uganda holidays and
Rwanda gorilla trips and we will advise availability of permits on that day.
7What is included with the gorilla permit?
A gorilla permit allows you one hour with mountain gorillas in Bwindi
Impenetrable National Park, Mgahinga or Volcanoes National Park in Uganda and
Rwanda, respectively. Included in the cost are park entry fees for the
respective parks, services of National Park guides/rangers who will escort you
to the forest. Gorilla Tracking Uganda will ensure that you secure permits in
advance.
8How long is a gorilla trek in Uganda or Rwanda
Mountain gorilla trekking exercise in Uganda or Rwanda can take from twenty
minutes to three quarters of the day so one needs to prepare for both. This
depends on several factors that include, mountain gorilla movements, where the
gorillas stayed the previous night and the mood of the gorillas. It may also
depend on the people in your group since the guides/rangers move following the
slowest person in the group. Gorilla Tracking Uganda trading as Encounter Africa
Safaris is happy to provide all relevant advice
9What are the chances of seeing a mountain gorilla?
The most asked question about gorilla trekking is the chances of seeing mountain
gorillas in Uganda or Rwanda. We can gladly confirm that chances of seeing
gorillas either in Bwindi National Park or Volcanoes is 98%. Many tourists tend
to book two or more gorilla treks in the fear that they may fail to see gorillas
on the first trek and therefore may be lucky with the second trek. The truth of
the matter is that gorilla trekking in Bwindi, Mgahinga and Volcanoes in Rwanda
is so organized in a way that there is an advanced team of trackers who wake up
every morning to find where these gorillas are. Once they find them, they will
then communicate to the park head quarters and your ranger guide of the day of
the where abouts of these gorillas. You will then start your trek from where the
gorillas would have slept the previous night up to when you find them. The
advanced team will keep communicating with you guide to make sure you don’t get
lost. If the gorilla family in question keeps moving very fast, communication
will be made and should they feel that you cannot cope with the speed, UWA may
decide to take you to another family. Please contact us for more details
1What is the age limit for gorilla tracking?
The age limit for gorilla tracking (Uganda and Rwanda) and golden monkey
trekking (Uganda) is 15 years. The authorities are very strict on this, so
kindly make sure all clients and children are 15 or older in order to avoid any
sad incidents like guest(s) kids being refused to track. We ensure that before
you book our Gorilla tracking Uganda safari holidays, you have all details
concerning age!
2What to pack for gorilla trekking trip
You need to prepare very well for your gorilla trek in Uganda and Rwanda, we
advise trousers, long sleeved shirts or blouses, long socks to enable you tack
in your trousers, garden gloves, a hat, sun glasses, hiking boots, insect
repellents and some energy giving foods. More about packing list and gorilla
trekking gear.
3What is gorilla habituation experience?
Gorilla habituation experience is an activity in Bwindi Impenetrable National
Park where tourists are allowed to stay four hours with mountain gorillas after
paying USD1500.00 for a gorilla habituation permit. Gorilla habituation safaris
are currently taking place only in Rushaga located in south.
4Does Rwanda have discounted gorilla tours?
It is true that Uganda abolished low season discounted gorilla permits in 2017
but Rwanda still offers discounted gorilla permits or Low season discounted
gorilla permits in Low season months of May and November. The condition for
benefiting from Rwanda discounted gorilla permits is that you have two book at
least three more days in one of Rwanda’s National Park. These National Parks
include Akagera National Park and Nyungwe Forest National Park. Rwanda
discounted gorilla permits cost USD1050.00 per person per trek to trek Rwanda
gorillas in Volcanoes National Park. The 1050.00 includes Volcanoes Park entry
fees for Volcanoes National Park, watching mountain gorilla for one hour with
habituated mountain gorillas and services of well-trained gorilla ranger or
guide.
5Is it possible to track Uganda gorillas via Kigali Rwanda?
It is now possible to trek Uganda or Bwindi gorillas through Rwanda by flying
through Kigali International airport. By flying through Kigali International
Airport, one is able to reduce the drive time to Bwindi Impenetrable National
Park to 5-6 hours compared to if one uses Entebbe International Airport where
the drive time is 8-9 and sometimes 10 hours from Entebbe to Bwindi Impenetrable
National Park. With the introduction of the East African tourist visa, one can
now visit both Uganda and Rwanda without hassle. The good news also is that one
can now apply for Rwanda Visa upon arrival something that is making the process
of obtaining Rwanda visa easy. East African tourist visa costs USD100.00 and
allows you to visit three east African countries of Uganda, Rwanda and Uganda.
Contact Encounter Africa safaris for details about Bwindi gorilla safaris
through Kigali Airport.
6Does DR Congo have discounted gorilla permits?
Democratic Republic of Congo is yet another destination in the whole world that
is home to the endangered and rare mountain gorillas. The other countries with
mountain gorillas are Uganda and Rwanda. A normal gorilla permit to trek
mountain gorillas in Congo’s Virunga National Park is USD400.00 and includes
park entry fees, watching gorillas for one hour and services of a ranger guide
during your trek. Congo offers discounted gorilla permits at USD200.00 only and
can be booked for you if you book with us an all-inclusive tour. For more
details about Congo discounted gorilla permits and affordable congo gorilla
safaris, please contact Encounter Africa Safaris by phone or email.
7When should I book Rwanda discounted gorillas?
Rwanda low season gorilla permits at USD1050 are offered in May and November
each year and because of this discount, there is a likely hood that these
permits may attract more people. It should be better to book these low season at
least two months in advance to avoid short notice disappointments. Feel free to
contact Encounter Africa safaris about booking your low season Rwanda gorilla
permits and safaris to visit Rwanda gorillas in Volcanoes National Park
8How many people are allowed to trek a gorilla family?
Only a maximum of 8 people are allowed to trek or visit a given gorilla family
in Bwindi, Mgahinga and Volcanoes National Park in Uganda and Rwanda. Bwindi has
about 14 habituated gorilla families and thus each family is allowed only 8
people per day per hour. Sometimes park management is forced to have more than 8
people depending on circumstances on ground. If such happens, the park
authorities will explain. When it comes to gorilla habituation, its only 4
people that are around to spend four hours with mountain gorillas under
habituation.
9When you should book a gorilla permit
Gorilla permits tend to sell out quickly so it is always advised to book your
Rwanda and Uganda gorilla permit in advance. At Encounter Africa Safaris we
advise that you book your gorilla permit 3-4 months in advance to avoid short
notice disappointments. Gorilla permits tend to run out during high seasons of
June, July, August, September, December, January, and February each year. Please
contact Encounter Africa safaris for details about availability and cost of
securing gorilla permits.
