Gorilla trekking in Bwindi
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the gorilla destination listed for this trip. Gorilla trekking requires advance planning, so ask about permit availability for your preferred date, the current permit cost and the park requirements that apply to your visit. Confirm in writing whether permits are included in the quotation or paid separately. Trekking conditions and wildlife sightings depend on natural conditions and cannot be guaranteed.
Plan your Uganda itinerary
Kampala and Entebbe are also named on the listed route. Ask the team to clarify how the journey connects these places with Bwindi, including transfer arrangements and estimated travel times. A day-by-day itinerary will help you understand where you stay and what is scheduled before and after the trek. Share any arrival or departure details when requesting a plan so the routing can be checked against your flights.
Accommodation and transport options
Accommodation categories and transport styles are available for quotation. Tell the team your dates, party size and preferred comfort level so they can propose suitable options. Before booking, review the lodge names, vehicle arrangements, meals, park fees, transfers, permits and any other inclusions or exclusions. Also confirm payment deadlines, cancellation terms and possible additional costs in your written offer.
