Do I need a gorilla trekking permit for a Uganda tour from Entebbe?

Yes, you need an appropriate gorilla trekking permit to participate in mountain gorilla trekking in Uganda. Permits are limited and are required for designated trekking locations, particularly Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park. Availability depends on your travel dates, so arranging the permit early is important, especially during busy travel periods. Tanzania Natural Tours can help coordinate the trekking arrangements and explain which permit costs and services are included in your quotation. Travelers should confirm permit availability before making non-refundable travel commitments, and they should check the applicable health, age, and park regulations before departure.
