Short Gorilla Trekking Packages
The popular Short Uganda Gorilla Safaris are the 3 Days Bwindi Gorilla trekking or 3 Days tour to Mgahinga. This is because Entebbe International Airport or Kampala – Uganda’s capital is distant and requires about 8-9 hours to get to the parks. Therefore Day 1 is for transfer to the park, Day 2 for Gorilla trekking, and Day 3 for return.
However, the short tours can also be 4 Days including other activities like a visit to Lake Bunyonyi to relax after the Gorilla trekking. Short Uganda Gorilla Safaris can also start and end in Kigali- Rwanda’s capital. The Shortest Gorilla itineraries are from Kigali since it is close to the parks taking just about 3 hours drive. From Kigali there can be a 1-day gorilla tour to Mgahinga, 2 Days Uganda Gorilla Tour from Kigali, or 3 Days Uganda Gorilla trekking from Rwanda. These Short Gorilla Tour itineraries include a 4×4 safari vehicle for transport, water on board, accommodation, a Gorilla permit, and an English-speaking driver-guide. Each itinerary can start any time of the year and is open to bookings by solo travelers, couples, or groups.
