Preface
Uganda protects roughly half the world's remaining mountain gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. An hour with a habituated family at three metres is the most concentrated wildlife encounter on the continent. Four nights. One Entebbe, two Bwindi, one Queen Elizabeth NP. Best between June-August or December-February for the dry-season trekking.

on how we work.
5Years of routing Uganda
1Route, none repeated
12 / 24Hours we tend to reply within
Tibro has been routing Uganda since 2020. Five years of Bwindi gorilla permits, Queen Elizabeth NP game-drives, and the occasional Rwenzori-and-Bunyonyi second-week additions.
We work with a Kampala-based partner who pre-arranges the gorilla permits (limited to eight visitors per family per day) and a Bwindi lodge team on retainer.
One route is what we currently maintain. The gorilla-and-savanna seven-night is the most-requested; we route Bwindi BEFORE the savanna because the gorilla morning sits as the trip's peak.
Warmly,
The Tibro studio , Mumbai, Kampala (partner), Bwindi (lodge)

Uganda gorilla & savanna, seven nights, July 2024
Two Bwindi nights, two Queen Elizabeth, one Entebbe. The gorilla permit morning at ten AM with a habituated family. The silverback at three metres, the juvenile pulling on his mother's arm. Was the trip and the year. The Queen Elizabeth tree-climbing lion sighting on day five was the bonus.

Uganda extended, nine nights, January 2024
Same as the classic plus two Lake Bunyonyi and a Rwenzori foothill drive. Bunyonyi was the trip's slow-down. A dug-out canoe at sunset, no engine noise on the lake.

Two questions decide a Uganda trip: which permit window (June-August or December-February for the dry trekking), and whether to extend with Rwanda's Volcanoes NP for a second gorilla family.
