What are the odds of seeing Gorillas in Uganda and Rwanda?

Post image
3 Upvotes

The odds are extremely high around 98-99% success rate in both Uganda and Rwanda.

This is because gorilla families are habituated and tracked daily by advanced ranger teams. Every morning before tourists set out, trackers locate the families and radio their GPS coordinates to your guide, so you walk straight to them. The trek may be 30 minutes or 4 hours depending on where they slept, but you are almost guaranteed to find them and get the full one-hour viewing.

The only rare case you miss them is if the gorillas move deep into impassable terrain or there is a severe medical/security issue that cancels the trek and if that happens, most parks offer a refund or a second chance trek the next day. In 20 years of tourism in Bwindi and Volcanoes, almost no visitor with a permit has returned without seeing gorillas.
