Day 2, Gorilla trekking in Bwindi

You will encounter many difficulties on your way to see the Gorillas but the moment you set your eyes on them, all the bad memories of the trek will be erased away. You are advised to bring your jungle boots and rain jackets because the park is often wet. Its well known that each gorilla safari encounter is different and has its own rewards, but most of the time enjoyed is when the adults starts feeding, grooming and resting as the young ones frolic and swing from vines.
