This bucket-list experience takes you deep into Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for an eye-opening encounter with highly endangered mountain gorillas. After landing at the international airport in Entebbe, you will fly to the Kihihi airstrip on the outskirts of Bwindi National Park. Home to roughly 340 mountain gorillas, the park is one of the two remaining protected sites where this subspecies of great ape exist in the wild. Some of the family groups are habituated to human presence and will allow trekkers to track and observe them from a respectful and mandated distance as they go about their daily lives. Back at your accommodation, which is the tranquil Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp, keep an eye open for gorillas strolling right through the camp!
Part of this 5-day rainforest experience includes luxurious and authentic tented accommodation, as well as an encounter with the indigenous Batwa people.

This safari focuses on the peak wildebeest calving season in the Ndutu area of Tanzania, typically between January and March each year. This is when the massive herds congregate on the short-grass plains of the southern Serengeti and the Ndutu area to give birth. It is the absolute busiest time, with thousands of wildebeest born daily. The abundance of vulnerable young attracts a high concentration of predators, including lions, cheetahs, and hyenas, making for dramatic wildlife viewing.
