Wake before dawn and share a nervous, excited breakfast. Your guide will drive you to the park headquarters for registration. You will be assigned to a gorilla family. After a briefing, you will join a small group of trekkers and begin your hike. Bwindi’s forest is dense and steep, but the reward is immeasurable. After one to five hours, you find them. A silverback rests against a tree. A mother nurses her infant. You have exactly one hour. Sit quietly, hold hands, and absorb the moment. A young gorilla may approach curiously. The hour passes like a minute. After the trek, you will return to the lodge for a celebratory lunch and a hot shower. Then, you will drive back to Entebbe, a journey of approximately seven to eight hours, with a stop at the Equator for a final photo. Your guide will transfer you to Entebbe International Airport for your departure flight.
