Park fees for non-residents, gorilla permits, listed activities, accommodation unless listed as upgrade, a professional driver guide, transportation, taxes, roundtrip airport transfer, and meals and drinks as specified day by day sit in this luxury bundle. Optional extras and upgrades stay outside that list, so tell us if you want to add time in Entebbe before or after the loop. ### What is not included? International flights, extra nights before and after the tour, tips, personal items such as souvenirs, travel insurance, and visa fees sit outside the package. Government imposed increases of taxes or park fees are also excluded, so keep a small buffer for those changes and for crafts at the drum makers stop. ### How does gorilla trekking work on this safari? In the morning after breakfast, you will report to the Bwindi National Park office where you will be briefed on the gorilla trekking activity. Soon after, you will start your trek which takes about 4 hours depending on the last spot where the gorillas slept. In the afternoon, you will return to the lodge for lunch, then visit the Batwa community that inhabited the forest before the park was gazetted as a protected area for the gorillas. ### What happens at Queen Elizabeth National Park? At 6:00 am, you will start your morning game drive through the park tracks, looking out for giraffes, elephants, kobs, warthogs, lions, leopards, and hyenas. You will return to the lodge just in time for relaxation and a sumptuous lunch. Thereafter, you will head out for a boat cruise on the Kazinga Channel to explore the marine life and wildlife on the riverbank. ### Do we visit Lake Mburo National Park? Yes. After Bwindi you head to Lake Mburo National Park, checking out the Eclipse Monument and Igongo Cultural Museum Center en route, then coming close to Ankole cattle, zebras, and giraffes in the park. You enjoy the sunset view from Kigambira safari lodge and a dip in the pool, then a walking safari with armed rangers on the final morning before the Entebbe road. ### How fit should I be? Gorilla trekking takes about 4 hours depending on where the gorillas slept, on forest trails that can be steep and muddy. The Lake Mburo walking safari is on foot with armed rangers. Game drives are mostly seated and the Kazinga launch is gentle. Share knee, ankle, or back limits when you book so guides pace forest walking safely. ### What is the minimum age for gorilla trekking? Mountain gorilla trekking on this itinerary is for travellers aged 15 and over, matching how permits are issued for the forest morning in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Tell us ages when you enquire so we confirm who can enter the gorilla trek and who stays with the vehicle on that morning. ### Where do we stay? Night one is your booked hotel in Entebbe after the airport welcome. Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi nights use the lodges booked for those parks, with a second night beside the forest after gorilla trekking. Lake Mburo overnight is at Kigambira safari lodge, named for the sunset view and a dip in the pool before the walking safari. ### Are meals included? Meals and drinks are included as specified in the day-by-day section, covering lodge dining on safari days and the lunch break en route to Queen Elizabeth National Park. Tell us vegetarian, vegan, or allergy requirements when you book so kitchens and picnic boxes can be planned across moving nights. ### What should I pack? Pack waterproofs, sturdy closed shoes, and a daypack for gorilla trekking, plus neutral safari layers, a hat, sunscreen, and insect repellent for savanna days. Add binoculars, a reusable bottle, and dry bags for cameras on the Kazinga Channel cruise and the Lake Mburo walking safari. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://media.adventuro.com/public/dae165b8-e890-435f-b6f8-2e578da406df/50a20768-7e18-47a3-90a4-8ad2dfd2ce1b/original.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 11 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
