Kenya & Uganda: 8-Day Gorilla Encounter & Two-Country Adventure
«Lake Nakuru National Park» «Masai Mara National Reserve»
7 nights 8 days
In Kenya, we are looking for wildlife in the vast nature at Lake Nakuru National Park and Masai Mara National Reserve.
There is no doubt that you will be impressed by the life story that unfolds in front of you!
In Uganda, we trek through virgin forests where endangered and endemic species remain in search of gorillas in Bwindi National Park.
Meeting with the endangered Bwindi Gorilla will be a wonderful experience far beyond your imagination.
Key aspects of this tour
You can meet wild gorillas up close!
Uganda’s most popular gorilla trekking offers a unique and special experience. For trekking in the national park, the number of people who can enter the park per day is limited due to the permission system, and advance reservation is required. Let’s trek safely with an experienced ranger in the park.
You can experience a variety of safari in a short period of time.
Although it has a limited number of days, it travels around two countries on a loose schedule. Explore the Lake Nakuru National Park, surrounded by lakes and acacia forests, the Masai Mara National Reserve, where the Big 5, including lions, inhabit, and at the end, trek through the primeval forest of Uganda to discover the rich nature and wildlife. Let’s fully enjoy the animals.
