The Package
A compact four-day Uganda primate combo — gorillas in Bwindi, lakeside relaxation on Lake Bunyonyi and chimpanzee tracking in Kibale Forest.
Four days, both of Uganda's flagship primate moments, and a single bilharzia-free lake to soften the middle. The cleanest, most efficient way to meet the gorillas and the chimpanzees in one trip.
Day 1 — Out of Entebbe at 7:00 am for the long, scenic transfer south-west via Masaka, Mbarara and the Equator at Kayabwe to Bwindi (about nine hours, but with a country unfolding the whole way). Overnight at Bakiga Lodge.
Day 2 — Early briefing at the park gate, then one to eight hours in the forest with a habituated family. After the encounter, a slow descent to Lake Bunyonyi — the Switzerland of Africa, 900 m deep, swim-safe. Overnight at Bird Nest Eco Lodge.
Day 3 — North to Kibale Forest via Fort Portal, tea plantations and the Rwenzori horizon as company. An afternoon Bigodi Wetlands walk for monkeys and birds. Overnight at Isunga Lodge.
Day 4 — A Kibale chimpanzee morning — one hour with a habituated community — then the return to Kampala via Fort Portal and Mubende (5–6 hours).
Price: $2,210 per person sharing on mid-range lodging.
