Day 2: Gorilla Tracking Excursion in Bwindi Forest
In the morning you will have heavy breakfast and with packed lunch you will transfer to the park headquarters for briefing and then later at 9:00 am, you will set off along the tracks in the thick forest to go search for these great apes. Depending on the movement of these humble giants the walk might take between 2-9 hours before you meet the Gorillas. The walk is tiresome however meeting these great apes and spending some time with them while looking deep into their expressive brown eyes, is an exhilarating and heartbreaking wildlife encounter that Africa has to offer.
