Uganda · BWINDI IMPENETRABLE FOREST
14 reviewed
Bwindi is old forest on steep ground, and the walk in can be forty minutes or most of the day depending on where the family moved overnight. These 14 trips handle it properly: which trailhead sector each one uses, what the lodges are like at Buhoma and Rushaga, and what you pay before the permit goes on top.

“Maravillosa actividad. Primero te contactaran por aparte para tramitar tu permiso de trecking que no va incluido y que parece costoso hasta que vas y te das cuenta del inmenso trabajo y logística que representa esta actividad (confía en la agencia) esto me costó por que soy mexicana. Lleva ropa adecuada, pantalones largos, algo abrigador e impermeable y botas de montaña, agua, comida y dinero para propinas. Estando ahí te darás cuenta de que el trabajo de esta gente hay que valorarlo. La agencia fue increíblemente amable y eficiente. Gracias por una experiencia única en la vida.”

“The communication from the company and the driver were very good, nothing to complain about. The only thing to perhaps higglight is what you actually pay for in terms of activities, this is purely a package with a driver and then they organise the one night accomodation including lunch and dinner, everything else including the Gorilla trekking is excluded. I had to pay an extra 50 usd for the Batwa tribe visit which was really 5 min down the road from my lodge, and additional 100 usd for the lake cruise which i still paid full even though I only did 1 hour instead on 2 hour cruise. Nevermind, the…”
