Bwindi	Rwanda	Kibale	Murchison	Queen Elizabeth	Lake Mburo

Gorilla Safari in Uganda and Rwanda takes you on a journey far from the busy parks of Eastern Africa, with their hundreds of Zebra Minibuses and clients on quick visits, just ticking boxes and moving on! Slow down the pace, as you take a Uganda Safari through some of the most beautiful and tranquil national parks in Africa. Whether it is north to Murchison, to enjoy views of the famous falls, photograph the rare Shoebill, or watch lions in the delta area. Or it is to the ‘regal’ Queen Elizabeth National Park, with its famous boat safaris on the Kazinga Channel, spotting Leopard on ‘Leopard Loop’, or chimp trekking in the stunning Chambura Gorge.

It doesn’t stop there, with a chance to trek in the famous ‘Mountains of the Moon’ (Rwenzori Mountains – over 5000m high), as recently filmed by the BBC, or to go chimp trekking with a group of over 100 chimps in Kibale National Park. How about photographing the famous tree-climbing lions of Ishasha, or a relaxing boat safari on the beautiful Lake Buyonyi. One thing for certain, is that you do not want to miss out on a Gorilla Safari in Bwindi or some may prefer the same activity, choose your own itinerary, but in Nkuringo or Mgahinga.

Both Uganda and Rwanda have a pretty sad history to tell, when it comes to human right abuses, rampant wildlife poaching and an inability to share the richness of their natural resources with their people. However there is a new dynamic youth coming through in both countries, who are seizing the opportunity for change and creating some wildlife lodges and activities that are adding to the attractiveness of both locations for international tourists. Whether it is a Rwanda Safari, Uganda Safari, or a combination of both, with gorilla trekking in both countries; now is the time to put away your concerns and take your first gorilla safari.

Wildlife Trails first visited Uganda and Rwanda in 2005 and have developed a style of gorilla safari that is unique amongst western tour operators. This type of wildlife safari ensured the best possible value for money for our clients, while ensuring they only travel with the best guides in the country, and stay at some of the most unique and beautifully designed lodges. Since all our Uganda safaris are tailor-made, we can work with you and your budget to maximize your wildlife safari in Uganda or Rwanda.

For clients wishing to leave the comfort of their jeep and set off on adventurous activities, Uganda is the country for you. Whether it be climbing one of the Volcanoes straddling the border, or walking from Buhoma to Nkuringo to view endemic birds and primates, or walking with the incredible Batwa people, who were able to live self sufficiently in the dense forests which once covered all of SW Uganda. Wildlife Trails can organise activities that match both your aspirations and budget and design a Rwanda Safari which will live long in the memory.

So if you are ready to begin your gorilla safari with Wildlife Trails, please pick up the phone or send us an email, and we will design the perfect Uganda or Rwanda safari for you.
