Budget Gorilla Trekking in Uganda & Rwanda Budget Gorilla Trips
While planning a budget gorilla trek, it is important to note that there isn’t anything like low and high seasons anymore. Permits cost $1,500 in Rwanda, $800 in Uganda, and $400 in Congo, respectively, all year round. Your biggest bargain should be on transportation and accommodation. These two services have alternatives, and only your budget will determine what you settle for.
The country you plan to travel to for your trek also determines the kind of experience you are bound for. Rwanda is a luxury gorilla tracking destination and wouldn’t be your best bet for a budget safari experience. Much as you can save on other facilities and services, the price of permits is still steep- an amount that can facilitate your entire short gorilla tour in Uganda or Congo.
Not all gorilla safari companies arrange budget trips. We partly specialize in organizing affordable safaris in Africa, and you can confide in us for a memorable experience. Above are some of our budget gorilla safari packages. Kindly select an itinerary, send us an inquiry, and we shall get back to you with a quotation in just a few hours.
Budget gorilla trekking in Uganda
Uganda is one of the best destinations for anyone seeking to see gorillas on a budget. The gorilla permits here are affordable, and there are several lodging options near and around the park to accommodate all kinds of travel settings. The only thing that freaks out most tourists is the 9-hour road journey from Entebbe to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. This journey can be cut by using a flight (takes less than 2 hours) or by making your entry through Rwanda (takes about 4 hours from Kigali to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park).
Budget gorilla trekking in Rwanda
If you desire to experience a gorilla trek in Rwanda on a budget, we can still find ways of making it possible, especially for those travelling as a family, in a group, or with a couple of friends. Otherwise, we do not encourage budget gorilla trek clients to trek from Rwanda. Uganda & Congo are much better alternatives.
Budget gorilla trekking in Congo
The Congo gorilla trekking experience is amazing despite having the fewest bookings. The encounter is not different from the one in Uganda and Rwanda. Gorilla permits in Congo cost only $400 each – apparently the cheapest of all. If you have more time, you can add a hike to the Nyiragongo Volcano to your package.
