Gorilla Trekking Tips
- Prepare for a hectic hike. There is a chance that the gorillas are close by but it is better to be ready than not.
- Book your gorilla permit well in advance as they get sold out so fast
- Ensure that you treat any infectious respiratory diseases like cough and flue as these illnesses can easily be spread to the gorillas. Anyone with these sicknesses will not be allowed to go for the trek.
- Have good hiking shoes as the terrain is rugged and some parts could be muddy.
- Gorilla trekking is carried out in the rain forest so the weather is quite unpredictable so carry a jacket in case it starts raining while there.
- Carry an insect repellant, trousers, long sleeved shirt, cap, sunscreen, walking stick
- The gorilla trekking Is done at an elevation from 1160m to 27000m above sea level, check with your health specialist that you won’t have any complications at these altitudes.

Chimpanzee Tracking Tips
- The hikes vary as you have seen in the various national parks. You still need to be fit because the Chimpanzees move faster than the gorillas
- Have your tracking permit bought in advance as the permits are limited and the demand is quite high.
