Mum and Dad Tours gave us the best immersion in Ugandan and Rwandan culture, history and wildlife. Unforgettable. We had a 12 day Safari starting from Entebbe in Uganda and finishing in the capital of Rwanda, Kigali. I have nothing but praise for Mum and Dad Tours and our knowledgeable and hospitable guides, Martin and Augustine. The whole tour was a non-stop fascinating lesson in the animal life, the geography, the geology, the history, the culture and the wonderful people of East Africa, and Uganda and Rwanda in particular. We had such a great time with Martin and Augustine and learnt so much. They are a couple of fun young guys who are proud, professional and passionate about showing off their part of the world. For good reason. This is an experience I’ll never forget, 100% recommended. Mum and Dad Tours, thank you. Weebale nnyo. Webale munonga. Murakoze. Ngibonga.

Trip of a Lifetime Communicating with Augustine, our Mum and Dad Uganda Tours agent was a pleasant and enjoyable experience. Augustine was quick to respond to questions that popped up along the way, and proactive in making sure our specific needs were taken care of. From recommendations around the safari location, to travel logistics - he had it all covered! It brought us a huge sense of relief as we had some minor anxiety about being first time travelers to East Africa. Would highly recommend working with Mum and Dad Uganda Tours, based on our experience with Augustine.

Why visit Uganda?

Uganda, often referred to as the “Pearl of Africa,” is a diverse and beautiful country that offers a wide range of attractions and experiences for travelers.

What is gorilla trekking or gorilla tracking?

Gorilla trekking, also known as gorilla tracking, is an outdoor adventure activity that involves hiking or trekking through the forests and mountains of Central and East Africa to observe and interact with wild gorillas in their natural habitat.

What do mountain Gorillas look like?

Mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) are the largest and one of the most iconic of the gorilla subspecies. Their ability to inhabit high-altitude forests with cold temperatures is indeed a remarkable adaptation, and their thick fur plays a crucial role in helping them cope with these challenging conditions.

Where to go Gorilla Trekking in Uganda, Rwanda and Congo?

Gorilla trekking is a remarkable wildlife experience that can be enjoyed in three Central and East African countries: UgandaRwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Each of these countries offers unique opportunities to encounter mountain gorillas in their natural habitat.

What are the habituated gorilla families for trek in Rwanda, Congo and Uganda?

Each of the three countries that offer gorilla trekking—Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and Uganda—has habituated gorilla families available for trekking. However, it’s important to note that the composition of these families and their availability for trekking may change over time.

What other activities can one engage in while on a gorilla trek?

While gorilla trekking is undoubtedly a highlight of any visit to gorilla habitat areas like Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park in Uganda or Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda, there are several other exciting activities and experiences you can enjoy in these beautiful regions.

What is Gorilla Habituation?

Gorilla habituation is a process by which wild mountain gorillas, typically those that are not yet fully accustomed to the presence of humans, are gradually habituated or acclimatized to human observers.

Is Gorilla Trekking safe?

Gorilla trekking is generally considered safe when conducted under the guidance of experienced and trained guides, park rangers, and following established safety protocols.

What is the cost of a gorilla permit?

A gorilla permit is an official document or authorization that allows individuals to visit and track gorillas in their natural habitat within designated protected areas, typically in African countries where gorillas are found. The cost of a gorilla permit can vary significantly depending on the country and specific location where you want to go gorilla trekking.

The minimum age requirement is in place to ensure the safety of both visitors and the gorillas. Trekking in the dense forests and steep terrain where gorillas live can be physically demanding, and younger children may have difficulty keeping up or may pose a greater risk to themselves and the gorillas due to unpredictable behavior.

Is it possible to trek Uganda Gorillas from Kigali?
