8-Day Ultimate Uganda Gorilla & Wildlife Safari

Overview

An alternative routing for travelers who want gorilla trekking paired with the Nile rather than classic savannah game viewing — Bwindi first, then a light-aircraft transfer north to Murchison Falls for the boat cruise, the falls hike and a full Buligi circuit game drive.

Journey Highlights

A full-day private gorilla trek in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
A scenic stop through Queen Elizabeth National Park en route north
The Murchison Falls Nile boat cruise and falls hike
A Buligi circuit game drive for lion, elephant and giraffe
