Everything you need to know about Gorilla Safaris in Rwanda and Uganda

The critically endangered primates identified the gorillas are one of the surviving natural wonders of the world. It is mainly around Africa where you will explore the mountain gorillas along with the lowland gorillas. The Rwanda mountain gorilla safaris are still one of the best safaris here in Africa.

The Rwanda silverback gorilla tours are extensively popular in Uganda as it is on the list of few spots in the world whereby the mountain gorilla exists in a lush habitat. Finding the gorillas from Uganda may be done in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park and also Maringa National Park. The forests of Bwindi have almost 5 gorilla families along with species mainly birds, golden monkeys and many more.


Across the extreme southwest portion of Uganda happen to be the Virunga Volcanoes Park which Rwanda border and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The Virunga Volcanoes are home to Rwanda’s best tourist destination popularly visited over the Kwita Izina- the gorilla festival held every year. The present gorilla killings from Congo have lessened the total number of gorillas. However it is still exciting to meet these apes across their wild habitation.

The permit to visit the gorillas from Uganda along with Rwanda is charged at $500, percentage of which is used for conservation activities of these rare apes. To book Rwanda Mountain Gorilla Safaris and hence tourism across Uganda, these permit fees are now inexpensive for reasonable $300. It is very vital to book the permit in less than 3 months before you reach Uganda from a tour operator provided that the entry to the parks is only with these specific gorilla permits. Every day a team of 8 members set off to find the silver back gorilla families of this area.
