Gorillas & white water adventure

9 days from GBP £375 plus local payment GBP £140 (What’s this?)

Day 1

On day one of this Ugandan tour we head out of Kampala early travelling west through sugar plantations and into the beauty of this lush and green country to the isolated Lake Bunyoni, frequented by plenty of wildlife including otters and a wide variety of birds.

Day 2

On day two we cross the mountains, with terraced farms and Long Horn Cattle, to the hustle and bustle of Kisoro, where we spend the night, and prepare for the gorilla trekking the next day.

Day 3

From Kisoro we then head into either Rwanda, D.R. Congo or stay in Uganda to go gorilla trekking. It may be a long trek, or a short trek, but either way the sight of these incredible creatures will not disappoint.

Day 4

From Kisoro, we then head back to Lake Bunyoni where we can take a relaxing boat trip across the lake, reflect on the gorilla trekking and rest tired muscles.

Day 5

On day five we drive back through the beautiful countryside to Kampala for a well deserved evening on the town.

Day 6-7

From Kampala we travel 80km to the source of the Nile at Jinja. Crossing the Owen Falls Dam, we will camp on the banks of the river.

Day 8

Day eight gives you the chance to try some of the many activities on offer in this little community. From helping at the local school to white water rafting or quad biking there is plenty to do. All these activities are done so at your own risk.

Day 9

After watching the Hammerhead fruit bats come back to roost, you will be transferred back up to Kampala to finish this amazing Ugandan tour.
