After breakfast, you start the highlight of your journey, the gorilla tracking. Your tour will be a very special, exciting journey - along the wooded slopes, through winding vines, past bushes and bamboo plants, before you finally see the gorillas. On the tour, your ranger will show you traces of previous gorilla activities, such as excrement, nests, and bamboo bamboo shoots. You will learn a lot about the Ugandan giants and if it gets slippery, a ranger will gladly lend you his hand. It is an emotional, moving and very impressive experience to face a gorilla face to face. If time allows you can do some village activities in the evening.
