5-Day Bwindi Impenetrable Expedition

The 5-day Bwindi Impenetrable Expedition makes a full safari of one of Africa’s oldest forests: gorilla trekking in Bwindi’s UNESCO-listed gloom, guided forest walks, and — for the deep dive — the option of the $1,500 gorilla habituation experience, which stretches your gorilla time from one hour to four. Permits, guiding, lodge nights and transfers are arranged end to end.
