Uganda’s Luxury Gorilla Safari

Your grand African safari adventure begins when you step off your flight at Entebbe International Airport. Here, you will be met by a friendly guide and comfortably transferred to the Karibu Entebbe for an overnight stay. Your stay at Karibu might only be for one night, but this charming boutique hotel is the perfect place to unwind from your long flight and prepare yourself for the next leg of your journey.

Wake up to the sounds of twittering birds before enjoying a delicious full English breakfast and heading back to Entebbe International Airport to catch your scheduled flight to Kihihi airstrip. From Kihihi, you’ll be met by a guide and driven to the charming Buhoma Lodge. A late afternoon arrival ensures that you have plenty of time to rest before your unforgettable Gorilla trek the next day.
Day three kicks of with a hearty breakfast prepared using local produce and enjoyed with sweeping view of your breathtaking surroundings. Then it’s off to spend the day trekking through Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in search of the endangered mountain gorillas who call. The up-close encounter you’ll have with these gentle giants is truly lifechanging – trust us, you’ll feel it the moment you stare deep into their expressive brown eyes.

After gorilla trekking through Bwindi’s rainforest, you can recoup with a day of leisure at Buhoma Lodge. Spend your time on slow, scenic forest walks, taking the natural beauty of your surroundings while spotting the many beautiful birds hiding in the trees. After your stroll, stop by the local communities for an insightful cultural tour to enrich your mind.
When back at the lodge, enjoy a rejuvenating massage before getting a drink at the bar and taking in the amazing forest views from the elevated lounge, while the warm flames of the fireplace glow in the background.

Wake up to the tranquil sounds of nature and enjoy one last breakfast at Buhoma Lodge before the drive back to the Kihihi Airstrip for your light aircraft flight back to Entebbe. Before you bid farewell to Africa, you’ll be met at the airport and transferred to The Boma Hotel Entebbe (just a few minutes’ drive from the airport) for lunch. After a delicious meal, you’ll be driven to Entebbe International Airport to depart for home or head to your next destination.
