FAQs

Yes, one gorilla trekking permit per person is included, along with park entry and one porter. Permits are limited and must be secured before the booking is confirmed.

Yes. Uganda Wildlife Authority only allows trekkers aged 15 and over.

Anything from one to six hours through steep, muddy forest, depending on where your gorilla family is that day. Good boots, long sleeves, gloves and a rain jacket make a real difference.

Groups are habituated and tracked daily, so sightings are very likely, but they are wild animals and it cannot be guaranteed.
