Mountain gorillas share 98.3% of our DNA, and nothing prepares you for your first face-to-face encounter. Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is home to over 400 mountain gorillas — half the world's total. Your trekking permit allows one hour with a habituated gorilla family, but the day's journey through ancient rainforest is itself extraordinary. Our team handles all UWA permit coordination and provides full briefing, boots, and walking sticks.
