Itinerary

DAY 1 | TRANSFER TO KIBALE NP | MEAL PLAN: HB

Early in the morning, you will be met by a Dust Absolut guide at your hotel lobby for a short pre-brief and simple acquaintance. The expedition to Western Uganda starts at approximately 7; 00 am, possibly after a filling breakfast.

We will have several stops for photographic moments and also use of furnished rest areas. Along the way are impressive are the market stalls we will appreciate and vast tea-plantations half way through the journey.
The day ends with a delicious dinner and overnight at a comfortable lodge/camp.

DAY 2 | CHIMP TREKKING | MEAL PLAN: HB

Today you will take part in two activities one of them being the trek deep into the forest in search for the chimpanzees. On a good day, you are most likely going to hear hoots, grunts and soft panting play sounds before you certainly set your eyes on these primates. Along the track are other primates species, diurnal monkeys but the stars of the trail are chimpanzees.

In the afternoon, you will go for a walk into the bigodi wetland swamps located in the outskirts of the park. It is a paradise for birders and also a wide display of biodiversity including lots of smaller-primates. Mammals such as sitatunga may be viewed as well.

The day ends with a delicious dinner and overnight at a comfortable lodge/camp

DAY 3 | TRANSFER TO BWINDI NP | MEAL PLAN: HB

After breakfast, we embark on a road transfer to Bwindi Forest via kasese, with beautiful scenery of hills, valleys and terrace farming almost everywhere. We will arrive at the lodge in the early evening hours. Check in, rest and prepare for the next day’s gorilla trekking.

The day ends with dinner and overnight at lodge

DAY 4 | GORILLA TREKKING | MEAL PLAN: HB

Today you take a walk through this gigantic rain forest in search for the mountain gorillas.

The gorilla trekking is preceded by a briefing usually at 7;30 am where you will be informed of the gorilla do’s and don’ts, allotted a ranger, armed guards and being divided into small groups. It is at this point that you will be handed walking sticks and also asked if you might need to engage a porter.

The long awaited trek begins. Most of the trek alters between uphill climbs and the downhill treks. It can be slippery, unclear and the flooring of vines and forest foliage is deceitful. Upon meeting the gorillas, you are strictly allowed an hour to take fantastic photographs as you watch them relate.

The day ends with dinner and overnight at lodge

DAY 5 | DEPARTURE | MEAL PLAN: BB

After breakfast, proceed to Entebbe having a stop at the Equator - where you will be able to stand on both hemispheres simultaneously. The rest of the drive will take you to Entebbe International Airport for your flight to your next destination. Or back home.
