3 Days Uganda Gorilla Fly-in Safari

This 3 Days Uganda Gorilla Trekking Fly-In Safari, you will take a 1-hour flight from Entebbe to southwestern Uganda to visit Bwindi National Park, the home of the endangered Mountain Gorillas. You will use scheduled flights that land at either Kihihi Airstrips. The safari is ideal for those who have less time but want to track the gorillas in Uganda, since you avoid the 8 to 9hrs drive from Entebbe to Bwindi.

Bwindi impenetrable national park is one of those parks with a remarkable diversity, carpeting the margin of the Albertine rift valley for thousands of years. The word “Bwindi” means “darkness”. Because of the intact forested perfections that allow very little light to pass through them and  at the same time blanketed by mist. The park hosts several other species with their counts estimated at 310 butterflies, 200 trees, 51 reptiles, 88 moths, 120 mammals and 350 bird species. Some of such species include; forest elephants, antelopes among others.

Our guide will pick you and transfer you to Entebbe Airport for your internal flight to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park landing at Kihihi  or Kisoro Airstrip Upon landing, our guide/vehicle will transfer you by road to your respective overnight Lodge.

For the southern part of Bwindi NP, there is only one morning flight that departs Entebbe to Kisoro Airstrip daily at 7:45am. This is because of the strong winds in this region.

The trek is guided by advanced trackers who monitor the Gorilla movements all day in the forest with this they will know where they nested for the last night and that’s where you start from looking for them. The 2 ranger guides will lead you all through the trek clearing trails, creating new trails and sharing with you information about the mountain gorillas and Bwindi forest.
