The Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is home to roughly half of the
world's 650 mountain gorillas. We will start hiking early with the game
rangers and do your best to find them - but remember, there is no guarantee because this is nature and the time taken hiking depends on the movement of these apes! The gorillas are shy, peaceful animals and it is an
unforgettable experience to watch and photograph these gentle giants at
close range. We return to Buhoma Community Bandas
