The question one is asked often - "Why should I go on a Mountain Gorilla tracking (trekking) Safari Tour in Uganda?"  Why not the Democratic Republic of Congo?

The answer to that is very simple and there are many reasons why Uganda is the best choice to go Mountain Gorilla tracking (trekking) and in Uganda you can easily combine Mountain Gorilla Viewing with the fabulous Ugandan Wildlife and or go Birding.


UgandUganda Mountain Gorilla Trackinga & Rwanda are safe and secure: 

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Mgahinga Gorilla Park in Uganda & Parc de Volcanoes are safe areas, since presently there is no conflict and there are no rebel groups are operating within Uganda or Rwanda.  The parks are safe and secure and the Ugandan government does everything within its power to ensure your safety both with the Uganda Wildlife Authority Rangers and the Ugandan Army. For more information regarding safety in Uganda see the Staying Safe in Uganda page.


Uganda and Rwanda have 3/4 the population of Mountain Gorillas in the World: 

In Uganda you will find the largest population of Mountain Gorillas.  Besides they are thriving and growing in number to the tune of about 7%.  Recently rare twins were born in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. The Mgahinga Gorillas have returned to Mgahinga Gorilla Park which is good news and you now can track mountain gorillas in two areas of Uganda which is Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Mgahinga Gorilla Park.


Combine Mountain Gorilla tracking (trekking) with a Uganda Wildlife Safari and or a meaningful visit of Kigali Rwanda: 

Uganda gives you a diversity of wildlife combined with gorillas that other surrounding countries cannot match or like the Democratic Republic of Congo are presently unstable and unsafe.  While Uganda gives you diversity and safety.  Climb the extinct volcanoes in Mgahinga Gorilla Park.  You can go Chimpanzee tracking (trekking) Kibale Forest National Park, see the wildlife in Lake Mburo along with its Zebras or simply swim and relax at Lake Bunyoni with its Bilharzia free waters and of course go on a wildlife Safari at Queen Elizabeth Park, all within the same region of Uganda. In Rwanda there is Akagera Park, Kivu Lake, the genocide memorials and the fabulous city of Kigali.
