After this meeting, you will then head into the forests to search and visit Uganda mountain gorillas. This gorilla trekking experience lasts from two to eight hours maximum depending on how long you take to locate the gorillas. This includes a full hour encounter you will spend around these gentle primates. Usually guides split into potions and move ahead of you to locate the gorillas first and then communicate to their fellow guides so as to guide them on the right direction.
