The QUICKEST HOUR OF YOUR LIFE could well be the moment you find yourself crouching in front of a gorilla/s in the dense bush of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest! 😮

This experience is a bucket-list dream for many of our guests and often one of the main reasons they choose to book a safari with us.

Gorillas are critically endangered, and trekking in Africa is tightly regulated. With fewer than 80 permits available in Uganda each day, they are in high demand, especially during peak safari season.

Tour companies are unable to hold provisional bookings for permits, therefore it is VITAL to BOOK EARLY.

To confirm your permit for the specific day of our itinerary, we need full payment for the permit along with your passport details.

On our Gorillas, Gameparks & Beaches Safari, you'll enjoy an unforgettable stay at MWEYA LODGE - one of the many standout accommodation experiences of this 32-day East African adventure.

The Lodge is nestled within Queen Elizabeth National Park (QENP), in Uganda's Western Rift Valley and has incredible views over the Kazinga Channel which connects Lake George and Lake Edward.

As part of your safari, we include an afternoon cruise on the Kazinga Channel where we can guarantee you will encounter a variety of wildlife – after all QENP is home to 95 species of mammals and 619 bird species! As you drift along the water, you’ll have the chance to observe a diverse array of wildlife, including hundreds of hippos who call the Kazinga home.

If you have been on a safari with us, you know that Nico's family is a frequent topic of discussion.
Nico loves his family and goes above and beyond to provide for them.
We announce with great sadness, the death of Nico's wife Mary on the morning of August 9, 2024.
Words cannot express how devastated we are or how much grief Nico and his family are going through.
Nico has our love and support during this very difficult time. May Mary's soul rest in eternal peace.
