Experience the ultimate primate encounter on our exclusive 3 Day Gorilla fly-in Safari, designed for discerning travelers seeking maximum impact with minimal transit time. This all-inclusive flying safari whisks you directly from Entebbe to the misty forests of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, eliminating long drives and maximizing your time with Uganda’s endangered mountain gorillas. You’ll enjoy luxury accommodation, expert guidance, and an unforgettable hour with a habituated gorilla family in their natural habitat—all condensed into one seamless long weekend. This is the perfect safari package for those with limited time who refuse to compromise on life-changing wildlife experiences.
Your luxury safari begins at Entebbe International Airport, where you will board a scheduled charter flight for a scenic journey southwest to the Bwindi region. This one-hour flight offers breathtaking aerial views of Uganda’s landscape, replacing what would otherwise be a grueling 10-hour drive. You will land at either Kisoro or Kihihi Airstrip, where your private safari guide will be waiting to greet you with a comfortable 4×4 vehicle. The short and scenic transfer to your luxury lodge provides your first glimpse of the dramatic, mist-covered hills of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After checking in, you can enjoy a gourmet lunch with stunning panoramic views of the ancient forest.
The afternoon is yours to relax and acclimate to the cool, high-altitude air. You may choose to explore the lodge’s grounds, enjoy a spa treatment to prepare for tomorrow’s trek, or take a gentle guided walk to a local community. In the evening, you will receive a comprehensive briefing from your guide about the next day’s gorilla tracking experience, including what to expect, what to wear, and the important rules for interacting with the mountain gorillas. You will then enjoy a sumptuous dinner at the lodge, retiring early in anticipation of the profound wildlife experience that awaits you at dawn.
This is the day you’ve been waiting for. After an early breakfast and a strong coffee, you will transfer to the designated park headquarters for your gorilla trekking adventure. Here, you will be grouped and assigned to a specific gorilla family by the Uganda Wildlife Authority officials. During a pre-trek briefing, rangers will explain the rules for responsible gorilla viewing and assign porters to assist with your daypacks. The trek itself is a thrilling journey into the dense, verdant ecosystem of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. The duration and difficulty vary greatly, from 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the location of your assigned gorilla family.
Once the trackers locate the family, you will be granted a privileged and unforgettable hour in their presence. Watching a mighty silverback, nurturing mothers, and playful juveniles interact in their natural habitat is a deeply moving and humbling experience. You are free to take photographs (without flash) and simply absorb the magic of the moment. After your life-changing encounter, you will trek back to the starting point to receive your official gorilla trekking certificate. The afternoon is for reliving your adventure. You can relax at the lodge, opt for an optional Batwa cultural experience to learn about the forest’s indigenous people, or take a boat trip on the beautiful Lake Bunyonyi before enjoying a celebratory dinner.
Enjoy a final leisurely breakfast amidst the serene beauty of the Bwindi highlands. Depending on your scheduled flight time, you may have a final opportunity for some last-minute souvenir shopping or a short nature walk around the lodge. Your guide will then transfer you back to the airstrip for your scenic return flight to Entebbe. As you soar over the landscape, you can reflect on the incredible memories of your intimate encounter with the mountain gorillas. This efficient fly-out service ensures you arrive at Entebbe International Airport with plenty of time to check in for your international departure, concluding your brief but immensely impactful 3 day gorilla fly-in safari.
