We Book Gorilla Permits
Gorilla Trekking Permits in Uganda & Rwanda
Regardless of the gorilla safari package, a valid gorilla permit is a must-have if you are to have a chance to trek Rwanda and Uganda gorillas. The cost of gorilla trekking permits varies depending on the destination and also visitor categories (foreign non-residents, residents, and nationals/citizens).
Uganda gorilla trekking permits cost USD 800 per person for all foreign nonresidents, and USD 700 per person for all foreign residents. Valid Rwanda gorilla permits cost USD 1500 per person. Talk to your expert to book a gorilla permit in Uganda or Rwanda: +256 (770) 985 030 or send email to info@allanblackiasafaris.com.
Gorilla Habituation Permits in Uganda
Gorilla habituation experience is among our top priority primate adventures. This primate adventure is only carried out in the Rushaga sector in Southwestern Uganda. The beauty about embarking on mountain gorilla habituation is that you have up to 4 hours to stay with a family of mountain gorillas. This is extremely far away from the normal 1 hour given during the usual gorilla trekking tours.
Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi National Park
Embarking on a gorilla trekking tour in Bwindi involves an active trek through the dense rainforest characterized by steep slopes and water streams. But at the end of it all, the long trek adventure brings back the lost hope. Right in the middle of a natural forest, you can closely observe a massive silverback gorilla and its family members. This is eye-striking and mind-blowing. It is during such a moment that your guide allows you to spend an hour face-to-face with these massive creatures.
Bwindi National Park is lying in Southwestern Uganda and holds about 500 mountain gorillas out of the world’s remaining 1063 individuals that are left on the Earth. These survive within the four regions that make up Bwindi including Ruhija, Buhoma, Rushaga, and Nkuringo.
About 24 habituated mountain gorilla groups currently roam in the jungles of Bwindi including the very newly opened families such as Katwe, Christmas, Kyaguriro, Bushaho, Bikingi, and others. The Bwindi gorilla trekking adventure begins with an early morning briefing on the rules and regulations, followed by the allocation of gorilla groups and park ranger guides to lead you.
Gorilla Trekking in Mgahinga National Park with Allanblackia Safaris
Mgahinga Gorilla National Park is the best destination for primate adventure seekers to enjoy treks with mountain gorillas without any crowds. This compact park with an area coverage of 33.9 sq. km is home to only the Nyakagezi gorilla family. This habituated gorilla group accommodates only 8 (eight) visitors per day. Visitors have the freedom to explore both Bwindi and Mgahinga – simply talk to your expert Allanblackia Safaris to plan and book your epic gorilla safari in Uganda
Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park
Gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park like in Bwindi involves embarking on a primate journey to explore more about the endangered mountain gorillas. The 160 sq. km Volcanoes National Park is home to approximately 12 fully habituated mountain gorilla groups.
Habituated mountain gorilla group families to trek in Rwanda’s Volcanoes Park include among others Sabyinyo family, Susa A group family, Amahoro, Hirwa, Agashya, Umubano, Karisimbi, Kwitonda, and Titus. Only one trek is allowed per day and a maximum of eight visitors are assigned to only a single habituated gorilla group.
Gorilla Safaris in Uganda Vs Rwanda
We understand how it is to choose between two great destinations Uganda and Rwanda for gorilla trekking. But by planning your trip with our expert, everything becomes simple. There is not much difference between these two destinations when it comes to gorilla safaris and our recommendation is to pay a visit to all. This can allow you to make a comprehensive comparison.
What is essential for primate adventure seekers to know is that Rwanda positioned itself as a luxury gorilla trekking destination. Uganda is generally a budget gorilla safari destination.
Gorilla permits in Rwanda currently cost USD 1500 per person unlike USD 800 per trekker in Uganda. Over 24 habituated gorilla groups are in Uganda freely roaming in Bwindi and Mgahinga, while in Rwanda, about 14 groups are open to visitors on a gorilla trek.

We have been able to restore 21 acres of land and planted 42000 indigenous trees to expand the territory of mountain gorillas feeding ranges and other wildlife habiting the forest.
More than 5% of our profits are being used to support different youth programs through sports programs and conservation initiatives about nature as a way of conserving for future generations.
We still collaborate with Karambi Primary School which is a local school located at the boundaries of the Bwindi impenetrable forest we are doing conservation programs and we have been able to plan around 100 different tree species in the school perimeters for educational purposes and a way of promoting a green environment, further we are giving garbage collection materials to the schools to promote a sustainable environment.
As Allanblackia Safaris our main target is to restore over 100 acres of land with over 300,000 tree species and to achieve the desired results in promoting sustainable growth in conservation we need the customers and business partners in this and who come through traveling with us.

EXCELLENTVerified Gorilla trecking Uganda was a great experience. Our driver Smith was very helpful and always happy. We went to see the Gorillas in Uganda. Smith picked us up at the airport in Kigali and took us for a good breakfast and to the Genocide Memorial before heading to Uganda. He made the trip a fun one with music and picture stops along the way. Ee spent three days together and everything was fun. ThanksVerified Gorilla Mist We had a fenomenal experience with our driver Smith. We all fell in love with him from the moment we saw his big smile at the airport in Kigali. He is a careful driver and a knowledgeable guide. He drove us down to Buindi to see the gorillas and that in itself is an experience like no other. After tracking them for 2 hours we found them in the forest and spent precious time with a family of 20. We watched their interaction, behaviors and playful times with each other. Smith was waiting for us at the end with his big honest smile. He showed us around local places and we met beautiful people that made a big impact in our lives. We can’t thank Smith enough for taking care of us and showing us the best during the time we were here.
