Rwanda & Uganda primate safari
This is one of the rarest and most moving wildlife experiences available anywhere in the world. Our 8-day itinerary covers both countries and all the key primate experiences in a single, seamless journey.
The gorilla trekking experience
The trek
You set off into the tangled rainforest with experienced guides and trackers, following the trail the gorilla family used the night before. The trek through thick undergrowth and over mossy rocks can be arduous — but the encounter is worth every step.
The encounter
You spend one hour with the gorilla family — watching them eat, play, and interact, while ranger guides share their knowledge of each individual's history and personality. Mountain gorillas share 98.7% of human DNA. The connection is immediate and profound.
Conservation
Only around 1,000 mountain gorillas remain on Earth. Tourism permits directly fund their conservation and support local communities. By visiting, you become part of the effort to protect one of our planet's most extraordinary creatures.
