Eye to eye with the Mountain Gorillas
This is peerless, and possibly the most poignant experience on earth. Mountain gorillas’ lives in montane forest of Uganda, Rwanda and Congo as well as West and Central Africa.
There is a about 1000 mountain gorillas remaining on Earth, in fact the only mammal species whose population is increasing; thanks to concerted conservation efforts and sustainable tourism in the regions. About half of the population live in the montane forests of the Virunga mountains, a volcanic chain that covers Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The tracking experience is just as exciting as the actual gorilla viewing, you might see other species of monkeys, rare birds and tropical flowers along the way.

Rwanda is naturally our first choice for gorilla experience, the region offers an easy access and good choice of good quality accommodation therefore easy to combine with Serengeti Safari extension.
Uganda might be appealing for adventurous folks who want to see more of the country.
