Notes

Day 1: Arrive Entebbe (early), pick up and depart for Bwindi National Park
We hope that your flight is for an early landing in Uganda. Your safari will start from Entebbe International Airport where the assigned professional tour driver-guide will receive you and then depart for Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Bwindi is a big habitat for mountain gorillas in Uganda, harboring over 300 of them, which is almost half of the world’s gorilla population.

The drive will take you to southwest Uganda by road. You will cross the equator mark, then head to Mbarara city for lunch, thereafter pass through the hilly terrain of western Uganda into Bwindi. You will arrive and do little but just check in to your accommodation and relax as you prepare for the Bwindi gorilla trekking experience the next day.

Overnight: Buhoma Community Haven Lodge (midrange level) | Meals: Lunch, dinner | Drive time: Approx. 9 hours.
Day 2: Gorilla trekking Bwindi Forest and transfer to Lake Bunyonyi for relaxation
After enjoying breakfast, head to the rangers’ post for a briefing on trekking etiquette. Enter the captivating Bwindi Forest, renowned for its steep, densely forested terrain crisscrossed by animal trails accessible to tourists. Trekking duration and terrain are influenced by the gorillas’ movements. Once a gorilla group is located, you’ll have an unforgettable hour observing these gentle yet endangered giants. Return to your accommodation, check out, and transfer to the picturesque Lake Bunyonyi. Framed by lush, green-terraced hills reaching heights of 2,200 – 2,478m, Lake Bunyonyi’s allure is heightened by its 29 islands of various shapes and sizes scattered across its waters.

Overnight: Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort | Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner | Drive time: Approximately 2-3 hours.
Day 3: Depart Lake Bunyonyi and return to Entebbe Airport to catch flight
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast overlooking the picturesque islands of Bunyonyi. Following this serene start, we’ll embark on the journey back to Entebbe, aiming to arrive in the late afternoon or evening for your departure flight. Thank you for choosing Emmkamp Tours. We look forward to welcoming you back or any referrals in the future.

Accommodation: Recommended on request | Meals: Breakfast, lunch | Drive time: Approximately 8 hours.
