Today we leave Kampala and drive West through Mubende arriving in Fort Portal for a hot lunch. Later in the day, we proceed to the Kibale Forest for a Nocturnal Walk tracking the Galagos, Bush babies, Pottos and the Night Jars.
After breakfast, we start a half day forest walk in the Kibale forest on a primate eco-walk. Look out for the Red Colubus (an endemic species only found in this forest in Uganda). Other primates include the Chimpanzee, Grey Cheeked Mangabeys and others. In the afternoon, take a swamp walk in Magombe for a closer-to-nature encounter.
After breakfast, we drive to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest with picnic lunches. We then drive through the Ishasha Plains the area famous for its tree climbing Lions. Arrive in Bwindi later on the day for dinner and overnight.
After a half hour briefing by the park ranger guide, we start our trek to find the mountain gorillas (can take 2 hrs up to about 10 hrs of trekking time). The tracking starts at the area where the gorillas were the previous day. After a full hour with the gorillas, we return to your accommodation for dinner and overnight.
After breakfast, we drive to Kampala, with a lunch stop in Mbarara; followed by another stop at the Uganda Equator for pictures and shopping; arrive in Kampala in the evening.
