A gorilla habituation experience is different from normal gorilla trekking in Bwindi because it involves visiting a group that has not completed the habituation process.

Take an Adventure and Change your Life
There are few adventures that are unique any longer. I, for one, am tired of seeing Las Vegas, the Maldives and other holiday spots litter our social media feeds. Great photography and great fun, but not a real adventure. We are sad when we hear someone say that they are going to go to so many places when they retire. Many people have become a viewer of photos rather than going out and doing it for themselves. Watcher of reels. Living their dreams through videos and pictures. It reminds me of elderly people looking over photos of times gone by and wishing time had not gone so fast. But this is worse. These are people that will never take an adventure. They live their lives by watching others. By dreaming their dreams. They join travel blogs and travel sites so they can see what others are doing. They want to go. They could go. But they don't. Not because they don't have time or the money. We know many people with both but still never or rarely leave their homes. Not because of work. And not because of children. I am talking about middle-aged couples that have the time, money and resources. And they still decide not to go anywhere. They decide to stop learning. And they decide to stop discovering. They believe you have to be ultra-wealthy to see and experience what the world has to offer. You do not. They believe you have to be a world-class athlete to see and experience what the world has to offer. You do not. We can assure you that you do not need to be either of these to see unique and wonderful things in the world. All you have to do is make a decision. To decide to go. It doesn't have to be luxurious but go. Get out into the game. Join life. Make your own dreams come true. We have outlined four adventures that are unique, life-changing and affordable. These four are some of the most incredible adventures you could do.
Trekking into the jungle to experience Gorillas is amazing experience.
Tracking Mountain Gorillas
Going on a Mountain Gorilla trek has to be on the top of many bucket lists. Traveling to the mountain areas of Uganda, Rwanda or the Congo. Encountering a mountain gorilla family is a great adventure and life changing. To be in the presence of these magnificent animals is awe-inspiring and humbling. We have put together different travel packages so everyone can enjoy this adventure. We recommend Uganda as the place to see these incredible creatures. Uganda is a stable country. You can encounter Africa's Big 5 besides gorillas and chimps and the scenery is beautiful. There are many other adventures you can do in Uganda. You can see the world's most powerful waterfall. Boat down the Nile and encounter crocs and other wildlife. See the elusive Shoebill Stork that stands 5 feet tall. And encounter warm and wonderful people. We recommend Uganda to everyone no matter how fit you are, or your age. It is wonderful. Go to LFTAdventures.com to book your Mountain Gorilla adventure. Less than $2,500 per person for a 5-day adventure including all tracking permits for Gorillas and Chimps as well as searching for the Big 5 in Queen Elizabeth National Park. Includes a private driver/guide, all food, accommodations, and permits.
I couldn't believe I was a few feet away from 40 polar bears. This adventure is life changing.
Experiencing Polar Bears in the Arctic
Imagine flying in a small plane to the Arctic and staying in a tiny native village. By the end of two days, having experienced 40 to 60 polar bears. That is an adventure. That is something you will always remember and cherish. To see these magnificent animals is life changing. The most popular places to see Polar Bears are Churchill in Canada. Svalbard which is part of Norway and Kaktovik in Arctic Alaska. We went to Kaktovik for an incredible adventure. Along the way we explored Denali and saw Grizzlies and Moose and the highest peak in North America. And the most incredible Alaskan and Arctic landscapes including the Brooks Range. We have put together a once-a-year adventure. We take up to 6 people to experience Polar Bears, the Arctic and Alaska. Go to LFTAdventures.com to see our Polar Bear and Arctic Adventure. Less than $10,000 per person for all transportation within Alaska and internal flights to the Arctic. Includes all tours such as a glacier landing, 90 miles inside of Denali and Polar Bear viewing. Also includes all accommodations and most meals.
Finding Tigers in India
Imagine getting up in the morning and taken on safari and encountering the elusive Tiger. Tigers conjure up many ideas and have held a special significance to many cultures in the world. In many cultures, tigers are seen as powerful and dangerous animals. They are often associated with strength, courage, and bravery. To be in the presence of a wild tiger is an incredible, life-changing experience. You might also see elephants and leopards on your travels. We traveled to India, where about 80% of the world's wild tigers are. The two national parks we visited were Bandhavgarh National Park which has one of the healthiest populations of endangered Bengal tigers and Kanha National Park. Both parks are located in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. The cost of this trip in 2023 was approximately $5000 for both Kati and I. That includes flights to India, internal flights, experiencing the Taj Mahal and Agra, as well as 9 safari's to track tigers in the wild. All food, transportation and accommodations. We recommend booking with Pugdundee Safaris. They have great lodges, wonderful people and will help on choosing the right adventure for you.
The landscape, the wildlife, and the incredible sea life that you can only see around the Galapagos.
Experiencing the wildlife in the Galapagos
Everyone has heard of the ship Beagle carrying Charles Darwin and his book the origin of species. Many of his findings were when he visited the Galapagos Islands. The total amount of time Darwin spent in the Galapagos was 5 weeks and he never returned. Almost 150 years later, Darwin is famous and so are the islands he visited. I remember when planning to go to the Galapagos, almost everyone I knew was skeptical. Most thought that you cannot visit the islands. Others did not know exactly where the Galapagos are. The Galapagos are about 600 miles west of Ecuador. From our home in Florida, it was a direct flight to Guayaquil, Ecuador. We then took about a 90-minute flight to the Galapagos. It was that easy. We know some take a cruise and that can be expensive. Also, we like to mix and mingle with the locals and get a real flavor for the areas that we visit. And we do not like cruises. But this was perfect. We flew to the Galapagos and took day trips to the islands that we wanted to see. We snorkeled almost every day with sea lions and other marine wildlife. We saw blue-footed boobies, giant tortoises and even a blue whale. Red crabs and marine iguanas were everywhere we went. And the town of Santa Cruz was an amazing little place to explore and mix with the locals. There are regulations on all islands and beaches so most times we felt we had them all to ourselves. It was magical and not difficult to plan. There are four inhabited islands and two airports. From each of these, you can decide what islands you want to visit and what you want to see and experience. We plan on returning even for a long weekend. There were so many more islands that we want to visit. If you want an adventure as well as a beach and snorkeling holiday, you cannot go wrong with going to the Galapagos. We spent approximately $4,000 for two for flights from Miami and accommodations in the Galapagos (through Airbnb) for a week. Also, that cost included 5 day trips, snorkeling, hiking and exploring different islands.
Our Final Word
Whether it is trekking for Gorillas or Tigers in the Wild, seeing the incredible wildlife in the Galapagos Islands, or experiencing polar bears, our list covers it all and we have done it. Imagine the stories you will have and the experiences you will do. A few feet from a gorilla, or a mother polar bear with three cubs. A Blue Whale crossing your path while sailing to see Blue Footed Boobies. Or watching a Tiger with its young. As Eleanor Roosevelt said, “THE PURPOSE OF LIFE IS TO LIVE IT, TO TASTE IT, TO EXPERIENCE TO THE UTMOST, TO REACH OUT EAGERLY AND WITHOUT FEAR FOR NEWER AND RICHER EXPERIENCE.” We believe that and hope more people decide to take her advice.

Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi: Everything You Need to Know About Gorilla Safaris in Uganda
Uganda is home to some of the world’s most incredible wildlife experiences, and nothing compares to the thrill of a Uganda Gorilla Trekking Safari. Deep in the lush jungles of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, visitors have the rare chance to encounter the endangered mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. This breathtaking experience, known as gorilla trekking, offers an intimate look at one of nature’s most majestic creatures.
What is Gorilla Trekking?
Gorilla trekking is a guided hike through dense forests to observe mountain gorillas in their natural environment. The trek, typically lasting between 2 to 8 hours, takes you through Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, one of the few places on Earth where mountain gorillas still thrive. On this adventure, you’ll follow experienced guides who track gorilla families by identifying their nesting sites and listening for their sounds.
With only around 1,000 mountain gorillas left in the world, this Gorilla Safaris in Uganda experience offers a unique opportunity to connect with these critically endangered creatures. Uganda is renowned for its conservation efforts, and Bwindi hosts nearly half of the world’s remaining gorilla population.
Where is Bwindi Impenetrable National Park?
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is situated in southwestern Uganda and spans over 321 square kilometers. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bwindi’s rugged terrain consists of steep hills, dense rainforests, and rivers that provide a perfect environment for mountain gorillas. Beyond gorillas, Bwindi is a sanctuary for numerous other wildlife species, including elephants, antelopes, and over 350 bird species.
Bwindi’s unique biodiversity makes it one of the prime destinations for a Uganda Gorilla Trekking Safari. The park is divided into four trekking sectors: Buhoma, Ruhija, Rushaga, and Nkuringo. Each sector offers different gorilla families to track, giving visitors diverse options for trekking experiences.
Preparing for Your Gorilla Trekking Adventure
Before exploring on a gorilla trekking safari, preparation is key to ensuring a smooth experience. Here’s what you need to know:
Permits: A gorilla trekking permit is required to visit Bwindi. These permits are limited to minimize the impact on gorilla populations and should be booked well in advance, especially during peak seasons. The price for a permit is around $700 per person. Kiboko Safaris can assist with securing permits as part of their tour packages.
Physical Fitness: Gorilla trekking can be challenging due to the steep terrain and thick vegetation. A reasonable level of fitness is necessary, but the rewards are well worth the effort. The trek can vary in difficulty depending on the location of the gorilla family on a given day.
What to Wear: Sturdy hiking boots, long-sleeved shirts, and waterproof clothing are essential for navigating the rainforest’s wet and muddy conditions. Don’t forget a hat, gloves, and insect repellent to protect against bugs and unpredictable weather.
What to Pack: In addition to the right clothing, it’s essential to carry a daypack with enough water, snacks, and a camera with extra batteries. The guides will recommend minimal equipment so you can trek with ease.
A Typical Gorilla Trekking Experience
Your Uganda Gorilla Trekking Safari begins early in the morning with a briefing at the park headquarters. Here, you’ll be introduced to the park rangers who will guide you through the trek. After a briefing, you’ll be grouped into small teams of eight trekkers to track one of the habituated gorilla families.
As you journey through the dense forest, the anticipation builds as you get closer to the gorillas. The guides use their knowledge to trace recent signs of gorilla activity — broken branches, nests, or fresh dung. When you finally reach the gorilla family, you’ll have an hour to observe and photograph them. Watching these incredible creatures interact, play, and communicate in the wild is a life-changing experience.
During your visit, it’s important to respect the gorillas by maintaining a safe distance of at least 7 meters, following the rangers’ instructions, and keeping noise to a minimum.
Where to Stay: Gorilla Forest Camp Uganda
For the ultimate gorilla trekking experience, consider staying at Gorilla Forest Camp Uganda, a luxury tented camp located in the heart of Bwindi. The camp offers an unparalleled blend of comfort and immersion in nature, surrounded by the misty forest. After a day of trekking, you can relax in well-appointed tents with views of the lush rainforest, enjoy fine dining, and take part in local cultural experiences.
Gorilla Forest Camp Uganda is also known for its commitment to sustainability and eco-tourism. The camp works closely with the local communities to support conservation efforts and ensure that tourism benefits the surrounding areas.
Why Choose Kiboko Safaris?
When planning a Gorilla Safaris in Uganda adventure, selecting the right tour operator is crucial for a seamless and memorable trip. Kiboko Safaris, one of the top safari operators in East Africa, is known for offering tailored Uganda Tours and Safaris that include gorilla trekking, wildlife safaris, and cultural experiences. With years of expertise and local knowledge, Kiboko Safaris provides comprehensive packages that take care of everything — from accommodation, transportation, to permits and guided treks.
Other Activities in Bwindi
While gorilla trekking is the main highlight, Bwindi offers many other activities to enrich your visit. Forest walks, bird watching, and cultural visits to the Batwa Pygmy community offer insights into the region’s biodiversity and heritage. Additionally, the nearby Ishasha sector in Queen Elizabeth National Park is famous for its tree-climbing lions, adding another wildlife experience to your itinerary.

With Kiboko Safaris handling all the details, you can focus on connecting with nature and the incredible mountain gorillas. A visit to Bwindi is not just a trek through the forest; it’s a journey into the heart of conservation, community, and the raw beauty of Uganda.

Best destinations for gorilla trekking
Uganda is a premier destination for gorilla trekking, with Bwindi Impenetrable National Park hosting half of the world’s mountain gorillas. This UNESCO World Heritage site offers a unique and unforgettable experience, featuring challenging yet rewarding trails through lush rainforests. Travelers can also explore Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, where you can see both gorillas and golden monkeys against stunning volcanic backdrops. The diverse ecosystems and rich biodiversity make Uganda one of the best places for gorilla safaris.
Rwanda is another top destination for gorilla trekking, particularly in Volcanoes National Park. Known for its well-organized trekking experiences, this park is among the most accessible for gorilla encounters. The breathtaking scenery of volcanic mountains adds to the allure, making it a favorite for wildlife enthusiasts. With a focus on conservation and sustainable tourism, Rwanda provides an exceptional opportunity to observe these magnificent creatures while supporting their preservation. For an enriching adventure, both Uganda and Rwanda are considered the most sought-after locations for gorilla trekking.
Top Locations for Wildlife Safaris
When it comes to wildlife safaris, Kenya stands out with the Masai Mara National Reserve. This iconic destination is famous for the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the plains. The reserve is home to diverse species, including majestic lions and elephants, making it one of the best wildlife safari locations in Africa. Additionally, Amboseli National Park is a must-visit, known for its large elephant herds and stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
Tanzania is equally remarkable, with Serengeti National Park celebrated for its vast wildlife and annual wildebeest migration.

The Ngorongoro Crater, another UNESCO World Heritage site, is teeming with diverse wildlife and provides stunning scenery, making it one of the most remarkable safari experiences available. Together, Kenya and Tanzania offer unparalleled opportunities for wildlife enthusiasts seeking adventure.
Best time to visit for gorilla trekking
To maximize your gorilla trekking experience, plan your visit during the dry seasons of June to September and December to February. These months provide optimal conditions for trekking, with less rainfall ensuring clearer trails and easier access to the gorillas' natural habitat. During these periods, wildlife sightings are also more frequent, enhancing your overall safari experience. The dry seasons not only improve trekking conditions but also offer better opportunities for photography, allowing you to capture stunning moments with these majestic creatures. By timing your adventure right, you can enjoy one of the best gorilla trekking experiences available and create lasting memories in the heart of Africa.
Best tips for trekking Preparation
Preparation is key for a successful gorilla trekking adventure. Physical fitness is essential, as the hikes can be challenging, often requiring stamina and endurance. Engage in regular walking or hiking in the weeks leading up to your trip to build your fitness level. Additionally, packing the right gear is crucial. Sturdy hiking boots, rain gear, and insect repellent are must-haves for navigating the terrain comfortably. Don’t forget to bring a high-quality camera with zoom capabilities to capture the incredible wildlife encounters you’ll experience.

10 Fun Facts About Mountain Gorillas
Did you know that Rwanda is home to over a third of the world’s mountain gorillas? With only around 1,000 of these incredible animals left in the wild, Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park has become a haven for them—and an absolute dream for wildlife lovers. These gentle giants are not only fascinating creatures but also a symbol of what dedicated conservation can achieve.
If you’re curious about these majestic animals and planning a visit to see them, here are 10 fun facts that will get you even more excited!
1. Gorilla Family Dynamics
Mountain gorillas live in tight-knit family groups, usually led by a big, dominant male known as a silverback. Think of him as the ultimate protector of the group. These silverbacks can weigh up to 430 pounds (195 kg), and they’re in charge of keeping everyone safe, finding food, and resolving any gorilla “family drama.”
The females play an equally important role, looking after the little ones and making sure the group stays close. And speaking of little ones, the youngsters are super playful—they’re always running around, climbing trees, and goofing off, just like human kids!
2. Unique Physical Characteristics
Mountain gorillas are physically impressive in every way. One unique thing about them? Their nose prints are just like human fingerprints—no two are alike. This is how researchers identify each individual gorilla!
These animals are also ridiculously strong. Adult males can lift more than 1,800 pounds (800 kg)! And believe it or not, they have opposable thumbs just like us, which helps them grab food and even use tools. Their thick fur keeps them warm in Volcanoes National Park’s chilly, high-altitude environment, where it can get pretty cold at night.
3. Diet and Foraging Habits
Mountain gorillas are strict vegetarians, which means they feast on a ton of different plants, including bamboo shoots and wild celery. In fact, an adult gorilla can chow down on up to 40 pounds (18 kg) of vegetation in a single day!
They spend most of their day eating and foraging for food, which means they’re always on the move, covering about a mile a day. Their diet changes depending on the season, which keeps things interesting as they’re always seeking out the freshest plants!
4. Intelligent Behaviors
These gorillas aren’t just strong—they’re also incredibly smart. They’ve been known to use tools, like sticks, to gauge the depth of water or to help with gathering food. This problem-solving ability shows just how intelligent they really are.
What’s even more amazing is their emotional intelligence. Gorillas have deep emotional bonds with each other, and they express a wide range of emotions, from joy and playfulness to grief and sadness. If a member of the group gets hurt or passes away, the entire family shows signs of distress, proving how emotionally connected they are.
5. Conservation Efforts in Volcanoes National Park
Mountain gorillas were once on the brink of extinction, but thanks to ongoing conservation efforts, their population is slowly growing. In the 1980s, there were only about 250 gorillas left in Rwanda, but now that number has risen to over 600.
This success is largely due to the efforts in Volcanoes National Park, which includes anti-poaching patrols, habitat protection, and involving the local community in conservation. Many locals now benefit from tourism, which means they have a vested interest in keeping the gorillas safe and thriving.
6. Gorilla Tracking Experiences
If you’re thinking about trekking to see these gentle giants up close, you’re in for a treat! But because gorillas are endangered, Rwanda limits the number of people who can visit them each day through a permit system. This helps protect the gorillas while still allowing visitors to experience them in the wild.
Gorilla trekking can be a bit of a challenge, though. You’ll need to hike through dense forests, and the trek can take anywhere from 1 to 4 hours depending on where the gorilla families are. But trust me, when you finally see them, all that effort will feel worth it! For the best experience, visit during the dry seasons, between June and September or December to February, when the trails are easier to navigate.
7. Communication Methods
Gorillas have a complex way of communicating that goes beyond just sounds. They use a variety of vocalizations, including grunts, roars, and even purrs, to talk to each other. These sounds help them express everything from happiness to warning signals.
In addition to vocal communication, they use a lot of body language and facial expressions. A pounding chest is the classic sign of a dominant male, while more subtle gestures like grooming show affection. Their communication is key to maintaining harmony within the group.
8. Gorilla-Human Similarities
One of the coolest things about mountain gorillas is how similar they are to us. Did you know they share 98% of their DNA with humans? No wonder we see so much of ourselves in their behavior!
They live in family units, mourn their dead, and have strong social bonds, just like humans. They also show a wide range of emotions, from happiness and curiosity to anger and sadness, making them even more relatable.
9. Habitat and Range in Volcanoes National Park
Mountain gorillas live in the high-altitude rainforests of East Africa, and Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park is one of the last places on Earth where they can be seen in the wild. They prefer altitudes ranging from 7,200 to 14,100 feet (2,200 to 4,300 meters) and build nests from vegetation every night to sleep in.
Their home range can be as large as 16 square miles (41 square kilometers), but it varies depending on how much food is available. Since they’re always looking for fresh plants to eat, they’re constantly on the move.
10. Gorilla Lifespan and Growth
Gorillas go through different stages of life, just like humans. When they’re born, they weigh only about 4.5 pounds (2 kg), and they stay super close to their mothers for the first few years. As they grow, they start exploring more and interacting with other group members.
By the time they hit adolescence (around 8-12 years old), they’re pretty independent but still very much part of the group. In the wild, gorillas can live up to 35 years, though some have lived even longer in captivity.
ConclusionMountain gorillas are truly one of nature’s wonders, and Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park offers a rare chance to see them in their natural habitat. From their complex social lives to their emotional intelligence and impressive physical traits, these gentle giants continue to amaze visitors from around the world.
If you’ve been dreaming of experiencing gorilla trekking for yourself, now is the perfect time to make it happen! Ready for the adventure of a lifetime? Check out our itineraries and book your trip today! 🌍🦍

The 3 Days gorilla habituation experience takes you to the Southern sector of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda, Rushaga which is a popular region with the highest number of habituated gorilla groups. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park has the highest population of Mountain gorillas in the world. It also has the highest number of habituated gorilla groups. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the only gorilla park where one can take part in the gorilla habituation experience. Mountain gorillas are wild and are naturally wary of human beings. Gorilla habituation means training the gorillas to get used to the presence of human beings without causing any change in their behaviour.
