Overview
This 3-day gorilla tracking Bwindi safari in Uganda accounts for more than half of the remaining mountain gorillas. The only other two countries still home to these great apes are neighboring Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. In Uganda, the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park has up to 12 groups/families of habituated gorillas available for the tracking experience. Hence offering a unique chance of viewing these apes in their untouched habitat. Comfort Level
