GORILLA TREKKING GUIDELINES 2023/2024

Africa gorilla safari tours Africa gorilla trekking safariGorilla trekking is a popular activity in East Africa, particularly in Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is a unique experience that allows visitors to come face-to-face with these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. However, in order to ensure the safety and well-being of the gorillas, there are strict guidelines that must be followed. Here are some of the guidelines for gorilla trekking in 2023/2024:

Tracking Gorillas: Gorilla trekking is an adventurous activity that involves walking through the jungle to track gorillas. Visitors must follow the instructions of their guide, stay within the group, and maintain a safe distance of at least 7 meters from the gorillas.

Obtaining a gorilla Permit: Before embarking on a gorilla trekking expedition, visitors must obtain a permit from the relevant authorities. Permits are limited and must be purchased well in advance. Each permit costs between $700 to $1500 depending on the country and time of year.

Health Requirements: Visitors must be in good health and free of any infectious diseases such as flu . Anyone with a contagious illness will not be allowed to trek.

Do not eat or drink near the gorillas: Food and drinks should be consumed outside of the gorilla trekking area to avoid attracting the gorillas and potentially causing them harm.

Do not touch the gorillas: Gorillas are wild animals and can be dangerous if provoked or threatened. It is important to keep a safe distance and avoid any physical contact.

Group Size: Each gorilla trekking group is limited to a maximum of 8 people. This is to minimize the impact on the gorillas and their habitat.

Keep a Safe Distance: Visitors are required to keep a minimum distance of 7 meters (23 feet) from the gorillas. This helps to reduce the risk of disease transmission from humans to gorillas. Visitors are also advised to avoid direct eye contact with the gorillas as this can be seen as a threat.

Keep quiet: Loud noises can disturb the gorillas and cause them to feel threatened. Visitors should keep their voices down and avoid making any sudden movements.

Photography: Photography is allowed during gorilla trekking, but visitors must not use flash photography or make any sudden movements that could startle or disturb the gorillas.

Dress Code: Visitors should dress appropriately for the trek, including sturdy hiking boots, long pants, and long-sleeved shirts. A hat and sunglasses are also recommended.

Littering: Visitors must not litter in the jungle, and all rubbish must be carried out of the park.

Age Restrictions: The minimum age for gorilla trekking is 15 years old. This is to ensure that visitors are physically and emotionally capable of trekking in the jungle.

Time Limit: Each gorilla trekking session is limited to one hour with the gorillas. This is to minimize the impact of human presence on the gorillas.

Respect for the Gorillas: Visitors must respect the gorillas and their natural habitat. Visitors must not make any loud noises, touch the gorillas, or feed them.

TESTIMONIALS ON OUR SAFARIBOOKING PROFILE

Breathtaking experience

My tour to Bwindi Impenetrable 3-day Gorilla Trekking by Mond Safaris was perfect because I was already looking forward to the enjoyment ahead. I love gorillas coz they are friendly in nature.

Mek Niz

Mond safari offered me a great experience of nature, indeed Uganda is the Pearl of Africa.

I traveled with Mond Safari for 5 days, the services were more than I expected, the travel companions were friendly and also the cost was not bad compared to the services I received. The trip was smooth, fun, exploring, and also refreshing. The pickup guy was punctual which I never thought could happen. indeed Uganda has a lot to explore

Jackson Nelson

Jose, is an extraordinary operator exceeding expectations ensuring a once in a lifetime experience.

I recently had the pleasure of traveling with Mond Safaris in Uganda. My tour operator was Jose. I travel extensively and can say that rarely have I traveled with an operator I enjoyed more. First, he is incredibly personable and immediately goes out of his way to be sure his clients are comfortable. He is obviously very knowledgeable in regards to Uganda as a country, wildlife, the primates, lodging etc. Of note, in Uganda one of the most popular and “do not miss” experiences is trekking with the mountain gorillas. They are, however, a 10 hour drive from Kampala. I was set up on a flight to the location while Jose drove to ensure we had a car! This is one example of going out of his way for client comfort and satisfaction. On wild life drives he was always on the lookout for everything and anything we could see. The accommodations were amazing with breathtaking views and incredible service.
Worth mentioning is Jose’s knowledge beyond what I’ve expected from a tour guide. He is a specialist when it comes to vehicles and will guarantee that an issue that arises will be taken care of. In the morning you will see him hard at work cleaning the vehicle before the clients are even awake, checking the oil, water and tires and at the ready to retrieve your luggage. He doesn’t even wait for the staff at the lodge for assistance. He takes care of your every need. I couldn’t recommend him more. I give him 10 out of 5 stars!

Charax

It was incredible

“Outstanding and phenomenal ” What a trip! The main goal of my trip to Uganda was to see the mountain Gorillas of course. But this country has so much more to offer. Thanks to the people in the office of mond safaris, I managed to put a trip together with stops I wanted to see and lodges/hotels I wanted to stay in. All of them were high standard and the hospitality was next to none. i had so much fun and i hope to come back to Uganda next year 2023.
