Overview
Our 3 Day Mgahinga gorillas will take you to Mgahinga National Park in south western Uganda. Arrival and departure will be through Kigali, Rwanda.

Mountain Gorilla Trekking
After an early breakfast, carry your packed lunch from the lodge and drive to Mgahinga National Park headquarters arriving in time for the gorilla briefing. Before briefing, your passport details will be required to make sure that you are eligible to trek mountain gorillas. This will be followed by the briefing from one of the Uganda Wildlife Authority rangers about the dos and don'ts of gorilla trekking and instructions to be followed before, during and after the trek.
You will then be led to the forest to search for the mountain gorillas. Once you find the gorilla family, you will be allowed one hour to observe and enjoy the gorillas. You will then trek back to the park headquarters for graduation and be awarded with the gorilla tracking certificate. Drive back to the lodge for evening relaxation and the overnight night.
