If you have experienced a typical safari holiday or are not sure that you like the idea of being taken around a park in a vehicle for much of the day there are alternative safari holiday you can take. Gorilla Tracking In Uganda is a very popular choice when it comes to holidays. It offers something a little different from the standard Safari and often allows you to get a lot closer to the animals.

Bwindi has at least 90 mammal species, 324 species of trees , 350 bird species, a large number of butterflies and it is also home to approximately half the world’s population of mountain gorillas.

When tracking Gorillas, you will need to be prepared to get up and leave early. Mountain gorilla groups move about daily and can be often be seen only 10 mins away from the park entrance. Saying this though, you should also realise that it may take a trek of several hours to find the group. On most safari holidays, the gorillas are tracked daily by specially trained guides who will make a note of where they rest for the night in order to know where to look in the morning.
