Gorilla permits
Gorilla trekking permits are issued by the Uganda Wildlife Authority in limited numbers for each day and must be bought in advance. We will tell you the current permit price and what is available for your dates before you commit to anything, and the permit cost is shown as a separate line on your quotation.
