Have you ever thought of any amazing and interesting activity that gives you a dozen of happiness under the sun and gives you memorable days for the rest of your life? Gorilla trekking in Uganda, Rwanda, and  Congo will not really leave you the same once you go for it. This activity is done in Mgahinga, Bwindi, and the volcanoes National Parks in Congo, Rwanda, and Uganda. The trekking starts very early in the morning by 7 am with a briefing at the park headquarters with the help of the trained tour guide who will brief you about the rules and the regulations of trekking gorillas for example do not get closer to the gorillas once you have a cold, do not mimic the gorillas because they may make them more angry and aggressive, do not litter anything around the gorilla s, avoid feeding the gorillas once you reach there and see them, do not make noise because you may make them aggressive. Having known the rules and the regulations, you will be advised by your trained guide to carry a bottle of drinking water and snacks into the jungle to avoid getting dizzy while there. You will then enter into the jungle to start trekking. Since these primates graze from very far, they are not easy to find, so you are helped by your trained ranger guide who will help you find these primates by following the footprints where they passed when they were going to graze. Once you find these primates, you are allowed to stay with them for over one hour having fun and taking photos with them. However, once you don’t find these primates, it is not a crime to anyone because they are always hidden away and go very far to graze.
