2016-17 Discounted Gorilla permits launched by UWA at USD450 – Gorilla trekking Safaris and tours.
Declared low season pricing and 2016-2017 reduced gorilla permits at $450.00 per person per trip for the months of April, May and November, Uganda’s wildlife authorities stated today July 28, 2015. Encouraging more visitors to Uganda to hike the rare and threatened mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga National Park, this campaign will run for the next two years of 2016 and 2017.
During his presentation at the Uganda Tourism Forum at Hotel Africana titled “The status of Uganda Tourism,” Mr. Raymond Engena, the director of tourism development at Uganda Wildlife Authority, disclosed this exciting news. Uganda Tourism Association is the umbrella organization of all private sector associations.
Discounted gorilla permits in 2015, 2013, 2014, and 2015 have been costing $350 and by putting them at $800 for foreign none residents shows an increase in price but, this does not mean Uganda is indeed becoming an expensive destination compared to Rwanda that charges $800 per gorilla permit in both high and low season.
UEA’s cheap gorilla permits starting at $800 will help all those who want to trek gorillas during low season to save $800.00 off each gorilla ticket booked and paid during off season months of April, May and November 2016 and 2017.
Mr Engena Raymond advised other tourism sector stakeholders to adopt Uganda Wildlife Authority’s trends and provide off-peak discounts so that visitors may choose Uganda as a travel destination. He was quick to point out that Uganda would always be seen as an expensive travel destination if that is not done.
