 This adventurous gorilla activity gives you up to 4 hours in close contact with the mountain gorillas in their natural environment. The gorilla habituation experiences involve hiking through the forest of Bwindi in search of the gentle giants.

The adventure is unique in the sense that it gives you up to 4 hours with the same habituated mountain gorillas that live in gorilla family groups

The mountain gorillas were initially not used to human presence; therefore, with a group of ranges and researchers, you will enter the forest and participate in activities that are intended to make the mountain gorillas ready for human presence.

What’s the cost difference between Gorilla Habituation and gorilla trekking?

The Cost of normal gorilla trekking is 800 dollars per person for foreign non-residents,600 for foreign residents, and 300,000Shs for East African Residents

The best gorilla trekking sector in Bwindi 

Which ever sector for gorilla trekking in Bwindi you choose; you still have 99% chances of seeing the mountain gorillas in their natural environment. However, Katland safaris recomends  Buhoma sector for gorilla trekking because of its relatively low elevation nature as compared to the rest. While gorilla trekking in Buhoma, visitors in most cases spend 3-4 hours in the jungle and are in most cases, back to the gorilla starting by 11 am.

The second sector we usually recommend for gorilla tracking to our visits is Rushaga sector. This is because Rushaga sectors has very many habituated gorilla families and getting permits for Rushaga is relatively easier compared to other gorilla trekking sectors.

For more adventurous guests we recommend Nkuringo and Ruhija. These two sectors have a higher elevation, making the trekking experiences a little bit strenuous but highly adventurous.

Uganda`s gorilla trekking costs 800 dollars for foreign residents, 500 dollars for non-residents, and 90 dollars for East African citizens. The gorilla trekking permit in Congo goes for 400 dollars for foreign non residents 200 dollars for East African citizens.

The variation in the cost of the gorilla permits in the three countries is based on the number of country governance policies.

In terms of gorilla populations, Uganda is home to more than 50% of the remaining population of mountain gorillas. This makes it the best destination for gorilla trekking in the whole world. Because of this population, Uganda has more habituated gorilla families compared to Rwanda.
