This Gorilla Trekking and Masai Mara safari will take you on a gratifying journey to see Uganda’s endangered gorillas and Kenya’s wildlife in the Masai Mara.

Your trip starts off in Entebbe Uganda before you proceed to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park where you will see endangered mountain gorillas in their natural rainforest habitat.

You will hike in the thick forest to find the mountain gorillas, and then spend 1 hour observing them before heading back. From Bwindi, you will then go back to Kampala with a stopover at the equator line for photography and souvenir shopping. You will fly from Entebbe to Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.

In Masai Mara, you will go on several game drives to see the plentiful animals that live in this wonderful savannah. If your safari is during the migration season, you will get to experience the wonderful chaos of the great wildebeest migration.

Maasai Mara National Reserve

Depending on the Wildlife migration patterns and the weather, an early morning breakfast is followed by a full day of game drives within the reserve. The Masai Mara is famous for its black mane lions and the annual wildebeest migration. This is probably one of Kenya’s most visited reserves with an extraordinary density of animals including the Big five and many other varieties of savannah wildlife. The Mara River cuts through the Mara and Serengeti ecosystems giving life to both reserves before finally pouring out into Lake Victoria. Impressive and most notable is the wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle instinct-led migration from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Mara in Kenya. This journey is coupled with numerous obstacles which makes it even more magnificent. You will have a picnic lunch and continue with the game drives arriving at the lodge in the evening for a well-deserved rest and a hot relaxing shower.

  • Wonderful 8 day safari

    Jackson was extremely helpful in designing an itinerary and accommodating my requests and suggestions until I felt confident that I had the best trip planned! I was met at the airport by Jackson and my driver/guide George (also known as Geoffrey) and we set off early the next day on my bespoke 8 day trip. George was a good driver and I enjoyed travelling with him and learnt a lot about each area. The safari van with the pop up roof was excellent. George took huge pride in giving me the best possible experience and, for example, on game drives, he wouldn’t rest until I had seen everything! Murchison Park was the highlight for me, the most beautiful savannah with a wealth of animals - we saw lions, leopards, hyenas, elephants, giraffe, buffalo, hippos, kobs, hartebeest, warthogs etc. Add to this the spectacular waterfall and lovely 3 hour boat cruise. Other stand outs for me were gorilla trekking in Bwindi, with an incredible hour spent up close with a family of gorillas. And Rhino trekking at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary. For me, QE Park was nowhere near as impressive as Murchison Park and chimpanzee trekking in Kalinzu Forest was not great (I think Kibale would be better). My accommodation ranged from stunning (Aardvark Lodge, QE Park), to very good (Papyrus, Entebbe and Rushaga Gorilla Camp, Bwindi) to not so good (Ikorom Lodge, Murchison Park). All in all, I had a brilliant 8 day trip with George, who took great care of me and treated me like one of his family. Going on safari in Uganda was a truly memorable experience and I would highly recommend Jackson and George at Primate World Safaris.
