It is not hard as most people think to see gorillas in their natural habitat. All you have got to do is book a permit through your preferred tour operator.
On arrival, they will hand over the permits to you and see you to Bwindi impenetrable national park where you will get your self ready for gorilla safari the next day.
On the morning of tracking you assemble at the briefing point where you are taught how to conduct your self while in the jungle in pursuit of the mountain gorilla. Some of the tips that you are equipped with are;
-Do not use flash photography because it startles the gorillas
-Do not look the gorillas in the eyes because it’s a sign of aggression towards them
-Do not litter the forest with rubbish
-Keep a few meters from the gorillas and so much more.
You are then led by the rangers into the forest to search for the mountain gorillas because they are the ones who know where they were last seen. A Rwanda gorilla tour takes between 2 to 9 0r even 10 hours because they are not in captivity. So be sure to take a packed lunch with you just in case.
One of the signs that indicate that you are in the gorilla territory is that you will hear them making noise or see branches and leaves moving. Do not get nervous but rather alert. It has been described as an ‘out of this world feeling’ seeing these shy gentle gorillas in their natural habitat.
Remember to observe all the gorilla tracking rules that you were equipped with. Spend about an hour with the gorillas. After this heavenly experience in the African jungle, retreat from the forest and in most cases if it’s not too late and you still have energy, this experience will be complimented with a community walk or a nature walk. This day will be a highlight in your diary.

When you travel from Kampala for the western bound road in the morning on the way for your gorilla tours, the traffic gets lesser and you drive into rural settings.
At some points the roads are a little bit rough and bumpy and at some, smooth. This is because most of the roads are under construction.
After traveling for about 4 hours, you make a stop over at the equator for photographic sessions. You can also visit the Mpambiire drum makers who are located in the same area. They have mastered the ancient art of drum making in Uganda. There also fruit markets and craft shops to look at and in case you are impressed, buy a souvenir to take home with you.
Have lunch and walk around a little or stretch then board your vehicle again this time taking no rests until you reach your accommodation in the park.
Be free with the guides/drivers assigned to you. Ask them questions about your trip; ask them to stop so you can take a short call if you feel like or to even take another stop over so you can stretch your legs. They are at your service all the way.
After a long drive through hills and mountain with grazing long horned ankole cattle, plantations of coffee and sugar cane you will arrive at the Bwindi impenetrable national park.
Check in to one of the lodges, have a bath and then relax as you await your dinner.
Go to bed with assurance that you will see the shy and gentle mountain gorillas which will leave you yearning for more hours to spend with them in this once in a life time gorilla safari package.
