Day 4 |
Morning game drive. Head to Ishasha sector and connect to Bwindi.Be up early and proceed for an early morning game drive in the Kasenyi plains. Look for Cape buffalos, elephant herds, lions, and (though difficult to spot) leopards, among other animals. Return to the lodge for a final check-out before heading to the Ishasha sector in search of tree-climbing lions. The chances of seeing these lions are roughly 70%, though they can be difficult to spot at times (most especially when they are down in the grassland looking for prey). If you happen to see them, it's a beautiful and memorable sight. You will travel from Ishasha to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. With a long day ahead of you, you will do little on arrival except check into your accommodation and relax as you prepare for the Bwindi gorilla trekking experience the following day |

Gorilla trekking Bwindi Forest and transfer to Lake Bunyonyi for relaxation.After breakfast, proceed to the rangers' post. You will be briefed (by a ranger guide) on the dos and don'ts. Following that, you will enter the Bwindi Forest to begin your adventure. This rain forest is breathtakingly beautiful! The area has a dramatic steeply forested landscape and is extremely dense, but it is crisscrossed by numerous animal trails that allow tourists access. The time and terrain vary according to the movements of these great primates. You will be allowed an hour in the presence of a gorilla group once you have located one. Spending time observing these gentle but endangered giants is an unforgettable experience. Return to your lodging, check out, and take a transfer to Lake Bunyonyi. Lake Bunyonyi is surrounded by lush, green-terraced hills that rise to a height of (2,200 - 2,478m), but it's the 29 islands of varying shapes and sizes scattered across the water that make it most magical — you could spend all day admiring them. |
