Day 1:  Depart Kampala from your hotel or lodging early in the morning and head west to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.  Drive through different parts of the country and see the great bio-diversity that Uganda has to offer.  Lunch along the way and of course the driver will stop at various places along the route where there are picture taking opportunities that you might spot.

Arrive late afternoon at Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home of half of the population of Mountain Gorillas in the World.  Not one Mountain Gorilla is found in a zoo anywhere in the world, you can only find them in this corner of Africa where the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda converge, it is this corner of the world where the remaining Mountain Gorillas dwell and you are here.

Choose your lodging from Budget at Buhoma Community Rest Camp where there are en-suite tents available, the moderate Lake Kitaranda Tented Camp or the up Market Gorilla Resort or Gorilla Forest Camp.  All of them have tented camp facilities that are en-suite and give you that close to the Rainforest feeling at Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.  Everyone of them will be full board and you will eat to your heart's content from dinner to the packed lunch you will take along while Gorilla Tracking at Bwindi.  Depending on the tented accommodation that you pick the service and comfort will be just superb and beyond your expectations.  You can always stay in a hotel room or even a nice cottage, but a tented camp safari, that is Africa at its best. Starting in February 2011 there is also Cuckooland Tented Camp.

Settle in to your surroundings, sit on the veranda of your tent and enjoy the beauty of the rainforest before you.

Dinner at the Tented Lodging you have chosen.

Day 2:  Early Morning Breakfast and we depart for Buhoma Headquarters for your instructions prior to going Gorilla Tracking for the day.  Gorilla tracking can be all day long but most days you return by 2 pm in the afternoon.  Be sure to take your packed lunch, about 2 liters of bottled water, camera and other things you just might need for the day.  You will spend one hour with the gentle, majestic creatures in the forest.  They move each day and build new nests so each day you find the location that they moved to that morning.

Return to your tented camp lodging and either take a guided forest walk to a waterfall or a village walk and see the pygmies in their traditional ways.

Dinner at your tented camp.

Day 3:  Morning breakfast and maybe a walk around your camp and off to Kampala.  (This safari can easily be extended by adding on Queen Elizabeth Park and or Kibale Forest and Lake Mburo National Park.)  Lunch along the way, stop outside of Lake Mburo Park and take some pictures of Zebras, stop at the  equator and return to your lodging in Kampala during the late afternoon.
