We will spend the remainder of the day unwinding at our reserved accommodation, Resort Beach Hotel, to recuperate from the safari fatigue and ready ourselves for the impending journey to Gorilla territory the following day.
Day 5: Entebbe to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park
After an early awakening and a nourishing meal, you will be escorted by our experienced guide to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park.

Strive to be physically prepared for this exhilarating expedition to the dense jungle of Bwindi.
Upon encountering the mountain gorilla, you will be permitted up to one hour with the docile creatures. Some tourists desire additional time with the gorillas; therefore, we can arrange an extended experience known as gorilla habituation.
