How long are gorilla safaris in Uganda?
When departing from Entebbe International Airport, a gorilla viewing excursion requires a minimum of three days. An international flight out of Entebbe International Airport will be your final destination after a first day of hiking mountain gorillas in the bush. The second day of your safari will be spent traveling to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
While you’re here, choose our three-day budget gorilla safari or, for a more upscale experience, our three-day luxury gorilla safari. Since Kigali is much closer to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park than Entebbe International Airport, it is now feasible to arrange a two-day safari to Uganda where one may see gorillas from Kigali, Rwanda.
Fly into Kigali, then cross the border into Uganda at Katuna or Chanika, and then carry on to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park if you want to skip the lengthy drives and several days of this gorilla viewing Uganda tour. Yes, this choice does allow you to cut down on travel time and the number of days set out for your gorilla viewing vacation. We offer two different Bwindi gorilla trekking safaris, one lasting two days and the other three days, all of which depart from Kigali.
