The Best way to save cash on a gorilla safari in 2022 – 2023 & Beyond
- Cost of Gorilla permit: Carefully compare the cost of the gorilla Permit. Gorilla Permits In Uganda Cost USD700, while Rwanda charges USD1,500 for her permits. If it saving money that we want then we definitely will opt for Gorilla tracking in Uganda.
- Cost of Accommodation – depending on your budget, decide on what sort of accommodation you want to stay at. Uganda, unlike Rwanda, offers a wide range of budget accommodation in Bwindi with the farthest property being at least an hour’s drive. Rwanda, unfortunately, has segmented her Gorilla Safaris for the well-to-do travelers – just not what we are looking for!
