  Day 2: Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

  After breakfast, head to the park HQ for a gorilla trek briefing. Your guide shares do’s and don’ts. Then, get to your chosen gorilla family’s starting point. Tell your guide about preferences, fitness, and age for family allocation. Trekking is demanding, lasting 30 mins to 3/4 of a day. Be ready for both. Learn about the forest’s trees, birds, and wildlife on the way. Spend an hour observing and photographing your gorilla family. Trek back for certificates and return to Kigali via Katuna or Chanika border. For a 2-day Bwindi gorilla safari, book a late departure from Kigali International Airport if flying back.
