The guides were patient and helpful, explaining how to walk safely in the forest. The hike took a few hours (3), but the views were pretty, and the group kept laughing together. When we found the gor…Full review by Linda R
Do you need gaiters? I have seen some places say absolutely yes and others no. I am confused!

Hi All - quick rundown - I want to go from Entebbe by 4WD to Bwindi Forest. I arrive Entebbe 3.20 p.m. so thinking to go straight from there as far as Mbarara and stay the night and go to Lake Mburo NP next day before heading to Kisoro to stay the night. Next day I would like to do the Gorillas trek - possibly two days in a row but this may be out of my budget - do you have to pay the $600 twice? Then I need to go to Kigali. Is it possible to catch a (cheap) bus from Kisoro to Kigali. I am on a fairly strict budget and only have 7 days in Uganda/Rwanda before heading to Ethiopia for two weeks. Thanks in advance for your invaluable help and advice. Cheers. Jill

You need to check availability of Gorilla permits with us, permits sell out very fast, then we can hire you a Safari Vehicle at 300USD with Fuel, after your trekk you can head to Rwanda with a bus or we can even offer you a car to transfer you to Rwanda. Before planning your dates, always check availability first.. permits and lodges sell out first.
Hi, I am thinking of doing two gorilla treks but am unsure weather to have a day off in between in case we have a long day on the first day. I'm 58, not super fit but not unfit. What would you suggest?

I did this trek on my 55th birthday and probably have similar fitness level as yourself and although we found the gorillas pretty quickly, we were told afterwards that it was a 'medium' trek, it was physically the hardest thing I've ever done, all uphill on the way back, you'll definitely need a porter, they are worth their weight in gold and anyway it's a great way to support the local community, I'd definitely recommend at least a days rest between treks. Have a great time x
