Fly into Rwanda Trek Gorillas in Uganda, Save Time & Money
Fly into Rwanda, Trek Gorillas in Uganda. Getting this into my mind, this is how the whole process comes abt;
Why do you have to fly to Rwanda to Trek Gorillas in Uganda? It is on record that the Pearl of Africa (Uganda) has over half of the world’s mountain gorilla population just in one of its national parks, and this is Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. I believe you would love coming close to them in a place where you are sure of seeing them in a variety.
This entire process will surely help you in several ways. Look at this!
You are going to save TIME, MONEY AND HAVE DOUBLE FUN.
TIME;
Landing in Uganda at Entebbe, it will take about one and a half hours to get to Kampala, and from Kampala to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park or Mgahinga National Park also takes about 8 – 10 hours of road drive. Getting there safely is a guarantee, but that will be quite a long way to travel.
Then saving TIME comes this way around;
If you land at Kigali International Airport, a drive from Kigali to the Uganda border takes about 2.5 hours, and right from that point, a drive to the Top Gorilla point (Bwindi Impenetrable National Park) is an hour’s drive. The entire process takes approximately 4 hours, starting from Kigali, and of course, the same time is required to return to Rwanda.
MONEY;
I talked about this in one of our previous blog posts. Let’s know what it was again.
A Gorilla Trekking Permit in Rwanda costs $1500 per person, and in Uganda, it costs $600. Mathematically, there is a $900 difference between the two figures. The difference is the amount of savings after taking the flight to Rwanda to trek the Gorillas in Uganda.
DOUBLE FUN;
On this, of course, expect double fun. How? Landing at the Gateway to the land of a thousand hills (Rwanda) will open up to the unending beautiful hills as backdrops on the sides of the country.
While on your journey to Uganda, you will encounter beautiful surroundings, locals, and other natural wonders. At the border crossing to Uganda, it will be an open point to the popular land of mountain gorillas.
The all-green vegetation will amuse you, and singing birds and animals in free movement will all be a nice sight. Several Lodges and Hotels are offering fair pricing, but with excellent service. This is an assurance that you will find wonderful places to relax your selves at.
With good restaurants at the Various Lodges, feeding will also be a great activity. Lodges like the Gorilla Safari Lodge will provide a good experience, just like the others, too.
You can add more activities to make the adventurous safari more memorable.
- The Golden Monkey Tracking in the Mgahinga Gorilla National Park.
- The Hike of the 3 Volcanoes: Mt Sabinyo, Mt Gahinga, Mt Muhabura
- Bird Watching: There are approximately 100 beautiful bird species, of which this bird activity is possible throughout the country.
- Game Drive: You will take a glance at the Tree Climbing lions and other animals. Their Hundreds of mammals and beautiful scenery will all make the process more interesting.
- The Bwindi or Mgahinga National Parks can unveil to you more amazing Wildlife apart from the Gorillas.
- Trek the Mountain Gorillas: This is actually a process you will surely ask yourself why you had never thought about it before, but it’s right here for you. I really thought you would read and figure this out. Doing this for a couple of years, I have come to love and enjoy this process. I believe you will also enjoy this.
Great smiles and fun will be the order of the day if we ever get to lead and guide this adventurous time.
