Bwindi National Park Uganda

Uganda gorillas in Bwindi impenetrable National Park

Mountain Gorillas are Uganda’s leading tourist attractions which tourists aim at seeing. It is important for the tourists to purchase gorilla permits from tour operators or direct from Uganda wildlife headquarters in Kamwokya – Kampala. With gorilla permits, clients are assured of tracking gorillas in Uganda, currently, Uganda gorilla permits are sold US$ 500 and a maximum of eight tourists visit each gorilla group. Because the circumstances in the Democratic Republic of Congo are unstable currently, there is a very high demand for Mountain Gorilla Permits within Uganda throughout the year.

To track gorillas, one must be 15 and above years-of-age. The Permits can be got for the 2 parks – Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park plus Mgahinga Gorilla Park. Nonetheless, the condition in Mgahinga is somewhat more fluid, because the only one gorilla group tracked keeps on moving from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, and back to Uganda.

Currently, meeting gorillas in their natural environment is less tedious because ranger guides predict the location of gorillas before taking tourists for tracking. This is because Uganda has knowledgeable and experienced ranger guides who always feed the necessary information hence making safaris informative and enjoyable. On successfully completing the Tracking visitors will be issued each with a certificate by the Uganda Wildlife Authority.

Book Uganda gorilla safari with African Jungle Adventures Ltd to get more than you expect at less than you think. This is because USD 500 may appear a lot, however; upon finishing there nothing is compared to the satisfaction of having encountered these glorious and uncommon giants.
