Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site located in southwestern Uganda, renowned for its exceptional biodiversity and ancient, mist-covered hillsides. Spanning 321 square kilometers, this rugged Afro-montane ecosystem is one of the oldest forests in Africa, surviving the last ice age. It serves as a critical sanctuary for survival, protecting roughly half of the world's remaining population of endangered mountain gorillas.

Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, Uganda’s smallest yet incredibly distinct national park, covering just 33.7 square kilometers in the remote southwestern corner of the country. This park sits high in the clouds, protecting the Ugandan slopes of three of the dramatic, extinct Virunga Volcanoes: Mount Gahinga, Mount Sabinyo, and Mount Muhavura.

This carefully designed safari combines wildlife conservation, breathtaking landscapes, cultural encounters, and one of Africa's most sought-after wildlife experiences, gorilla trekking.

The journey begins in Entebbe City, Uganda's gateway city, where guests can explore the famous Entebbe Botanical Gardens or relax along the shores of Lake Victoria before embarking on a scenic drive through Uganda's rolling hills, lush countryside, and vibrant local communities.

The highlight of the safari is the extraordinary opportunity to spend time with a habituated mountain gorilla family in their natural habitat.
