Uganda Bwindi Gorilla Trekking — Budget-Friendly
The same incredible gorilla experience — half the price of Rwanda
Tour Overview
Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to approximately 450 mountain gorillas — nearly half the world's remaining population. Multiple habituated families offer excellent trekking opportunities. The experience is identical to Rwanda — trek through dense forest with expert guides until you locate a family group, then spend one extraordinary hour in their presence. The key difference? Uganda's permits cost $800 vs Rwanda's $1,500, making gorilla trekking accessible to more travellers.
