Normally, we book gorilla habituation experience for our luxury travelers so as to spend enough time with the mountain gorillas. Gorilla habituation gives one 4 hours with the mountain gorillas, 3 hours more than when on gorilla trekking experience.
When our Luxury Gorilla Trekking Uganda are tailored with other adventures such as wildlife game viewing, hot-air balloon safaris are another exclusive way we treat our guests with. Here, we spot different wildlife from above riding in the hot-air balloons.

Best Time to Go on a Luxury Gorilla Trekking Uganda Trip:
The best time to trek mountain gorillas in between the Dry months of June to September and December to February.
During then, the hiking trails are dry and passable and the weather is much more favorable as there is little to no rain.
It is advisable to book your Luxury Gorilla Trekking Uganda tour early enough to avoid disappointments. This is because, these months are regarded as high season and so much tourists flock the parks during then.
this shouldn’t discourage you though because we got Last Minute safaris for travelers especially on business trip.
