Gorillas in the Mist (3 DAYS)
This park found in the South
western part of the country has always been referred as Impenetrable
forest, it has always been conceived as the Gorilla sanctuary
even though it has more than ten other species of primates
e.g. chipanzees, colubus monkeys, baboons e.t.a. Bwindi also
encompass one of the richest areas in Africa for flora and
fauna. Clients need to be patient and prepared to scramble
through more bushes than would be necessary since the gorillas
are not habituated to human contact.
