Additional Information
The Wild Road trip
Uganda's roads offer a varied and scenic travel experience, from smooth highways to winding routes through the country's mountainous and rural landscapes. Some sections of the safari involve unpaved park roads and rural dirt tracks, which can be uneven and occasionally bumpy, most travellers calling the bumpiness ‘African massage’. This safari is operated using a well-maintained safari vehicle suited to both long-distance travel and the interior tracks of the national parks.
Gorilla Trekking Permits
Gorilla trekking permits are limited and issued on a first-come, first-served basis. Because availability can change, early confirmation is strongly recommended. Where necessary, the itinerary may be adjusted slightly to align the safari with the available trekking date or trekking sector. Any such adjustment will be made with the aim of preserving the overall duration and experience of your safari.
Accommodation
The accommodation listed in this itinerary represents the recommended budget-level options for each destination. Accommodation can be upgraded upon request, subject to availability, and an upgrade may result in an additional safari cost.
Important Note
Accommodation and permits are not considered reserved until the booking has been confirmed and the required payments have been received. Availability may change before confirmation, and Wild Hunters Safari reserves the right to make reasonable adjustments where necessary but with prier communication.
