The gorilla trek (and TRACK also- since we were actually being guided by the scouts who were tracking the family in real time!) was a totally awesome experience which is unique to this part of the world! The trek involves steep ascents/descents and demands good physical fitness. The one hour stay with the gorilla family is memorable and is a lifetime experience. Some tips:- 1. Wear good trekking shoes which are ankle high. If not available, ask your lodge in advance to arrange for gumboots from the UWA rangers at $10 per pair. Absolutely necessary, do not try to trek in sneakers/normal shoes. 2. Carry 2 litres water per person. If the sun is shining, it can cause dehydration fast. 3. Hiring a porter is useful particularly if you are not at the top of your fitness or are middle aged. He carries the backpack too. Cost is $15 but most trekkers pay more because of the superb assistance. 4. A rain jacket is necessary, it can rain anytime. 5. Nkuringo sector is the toughest trek but the most rewarding. Buhoma and Rushaga are comparatively easier. 6. It may take as long as 6-7 hours before return, so carry energy bars as well as the packed lunch provided by the lodge.

This trek was one of our groups highlights as we (22 of us, all ages) trekked thru forest for a chance to observe chimpanzees in their natural habitat. Our guides were helpful, knowledgeable and careful about the forest. By staying somewhat still we were rewarded by having the experience of seeing the chimpanzees swing and climb thru the trees, sit in the trees, and watch them eat their lunch.

We had a wonderful time touring the Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary with our excellent guides Joseph and Jimmy. They were truly outstanding in their knowledge and expertise! Both men were very knowledgeable and fun to be around. Joseph knew many bird calls and it was nice to hear him call out and have birds respond. We saw an expansive variety of plants and animals (birds, mammals, fish, reptiles, and invertebrates) on our 3-hour walk, making this trip a very memorable one. We were also able to hear about Joseph’s youth club, the Kibale Conservation Club. It was really cool to learn about efforts going on to educate children and young adults about the importance of environmental science and wildlife conservation. Thank you Joseph and Jimmy for allowing us to have such an amazing day!

The guide – Bernard – is part of the Ugandan Wildlife Authority and is a wealth of knowledge. We came upon so many animals on this trek – which could be frightening. But we knew we were in good hands. Before you head down to the gorge, make sure your have put on more bug repellent than usual. Then enjoy!

Lake Nkuruba Nature Reserve is well known as the best place to photograph colobus monkeys in Uganda. The dense tropical forest is home to four species of monkeys including vervet monkeys, red tailed monkeys, black & white colobus and the endangered Uganda red colobus. Guests are almost guaranteed to see monkeys during their visit!
A little paradise in the crater lakes with an extraordinary friendly manager and stuff. The rooms a basic but clean, hot water is great, the surrounding nature is a garden eden. Monkey are all around and up for funny actions.The rates are very reasonable! Highly recommended!

Uganda’s nature is both stunning and scenic, gave us an opportunity, to witness the natural beauty in the endless plains in specific magnificent natural arenas of the world. We definitely enjoyed the vast mosaic of rolling savanna grasslands, visit to the most powerful waterfalls combined with Africa’s wilderness was exceptional, endless savanna, coming this close to nature was a vivid reminder as to why we have always been inspired by the untouched wild.
