At Trek Africa Gorillas, we specialize in organizing low season gorilla safaris to the lush jungles of Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Mgahinga National Park, Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park and Congo’s Virunga National Park. Whether you seek a memorable gorilla trekking experience alone or combined with wildlife safaris, boat cruises and cultural encounters, we’ll help you plan and book your unforgettable adventure.
Why Travel During the Low Season? Discounted Gorilla Trekking Adventures
Traveling in the low season—the rainy months—offers fantastic savings! You can enjoy discounted rates on permits, accommodations and services, making it an ideal time for budget-friendly gorilla trekking. Our website features a variety of affordable safari packages, from short treks to extended adventures across Uganda, Rwanda and Congo. We can also help you combine treks across all three countries for a truly diverse gorilla experience.
Most safaris start and end in Uganda’s Entebbe but we also offer flexible itineraries that begin and conclude in Kigali, Rwanda, allowing you to explore Uganda and Congo conveniently.
Best Time to Book Your Low Season Gorilla Safari
Booking your gorilla safari at least three months in advance is highly recommended. Early planning not only secures the best rates but also guarantees your gorilla permits, which sell out quickly. If you’re interested in trekking during the rainy season, contact us today to check availability.
Once your selected dates are confirmed for gorilla permits, we’ll notify you immediately. If you approve, we’ll guide you through payment options—bank transfer or debit/credit card (note: card payments incur a small surcharge). After payment, your permits will be secured and booking details sent to you.

- Gorilla permits
- Accommodation

Essential Information About Gorilla Permits
Your gorilla permit is vital for trekking in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable or Mgahinga National Parks. It allows one hour with a habituated gorilla family and covers park entry fees, ranger guide services and tourism police for your safety. Permits are date-specific and non-transferable, so it’s important to schedule your trek carefully.
We assist you throughout the permit booking process, securing your permits well in advance. Once booked, your permit will be collected from the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) and safely stored until your trek.
Flexible Arrival Options: Fly into Kigali, Rwanda or Entebbe, Uganda
We provide flexible travel options allowing you to fly into either Kigali (Rwanda) or Entebbe (Uganda). Kigali’s proximity to Bwindi helps you avoid long road transfers from Entebbe. Regardless of your entry point, we manage all airport transfers and transportation to Bwindi, ensuring a smooth and stress-free start to your gorilla safari.
