Come face-to-face with majestic Mountain Gorillas and track legendary birds like the Shoebill on a seamless, expert-led safari designed just for you
An unforgettable safari crafted around two of nature's greatest spectacles: a profound encounter with Mountain Gorillas and a world-class birding adventure in Africa's richest habitat.
Uganda is rightfully called Africa's premier birding destination. It's a land of over 1,000 species, home to the "holy grail" for any lister: the mythic Shoebill, the elusive Green-breasted Pitta, and the full suite of Albertine Rift Endemics. Our specialist birding guides live and breathe these habitats. They know the calls, the territories, and the secrets that turn a good birding trip into a legendary one.
It is an hour that will change you forever. To sit quietly in the forest and look into the eyes of a Silverback, watch infants play in the canopy, and feel the profound connection to our closest relatives is an experience that transcends words. This is more than just a trek; it's a carefully orchestrated experience. We handle the complex permit process and provide expert trekker guides, ensuring your encounter in the mists of Bwindi is safe, respectful, and unforgettable.
