FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Your Questions Answers With A Helpful FAQs Guide

Everything you need to know about Rwanda Destinations, wildlife, and travel tips.

What destinations do you cover?

We specialize in safaris across Uganda and East Africa, with a primary focus on gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park. We also arrange chimpanzee tracking in Kibale Forest National Park, game drives in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and cultural experiences with local communities, including the Batwa people

When is the best time to go gorilla trekking?

The dry seasons—from December to February and June to early September—offer the easiest trekking conditions with clearer trails and better visibility. If you prefer fewer crowds, the wet seasons (March to May and late September to November) are also viable, though trails may be muddier

Can I combine gorilla trekking with other wildlife experiences?

Absolutely. We highly recommend combining gorilla trekking with chimpanzee tracking in Kibale Forest, game drives in Queen Elizabeth National Park, or golden monkey tracking in Mgahinga. Bwindi’s northern sectors (Buhoma and Ruhija) are close to Queen Elizabeth National Park, while the southern sectors (Rushaga and Nkuringo) are near Mgahinga

How do I get to Bwindi?

You can drive from Entebbe or Kampala (8–9 hours) or from Kigali, Rwanda (4–5 hours). Alternatively, fly from Entebbe International Airport or Kajjansi Airfield to Kisoro Airstrip, and we’ll arrange transfers to your lodge

How much does a gorilla trekking permit cost?

For 2025–2026, permit prices are:

  • Foreign non-residents: $800 USD per person

  • Foreign residents: $700 USD per person

  • East African citizens: UGX 300,000 per person

  • Rest of Africa citizens: $500 USD per person

Do I need a permit to go gorilla trekking?

Yes. Every visitor must hold a valid gorilla trekking permit issued by the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA). Permits are limited, only eight people per habituated gorilla family per day, so booking in advance is essential

How far in advance should I book my permit?

We recommend booking 3 to 12 months in advance, especially during peak seasons (June–September and December–February). Permits can sell out 3–6 months ahead. For last-minute travelers, we may be able to source permits through our network of licensed operators.
