Best Time to Go
January to March and June to September are the dry seasons; April to May is the season of long rains; and the short rains last from October through December. Temperatures average 27ºC/80°F during the day. During the rainy seasons many roads are impassible. Gorilla tracking can be done year round, although rainy season is more difficult.
Special note: *Gorilla tracking permits are limited. Advance planning is critical. A permit does not guarantee gorilla sightings. One or two gorilla permits are included per itinerary. More can be purchased subject to availability. Rwandan permits as of this writing cost $1500 per person, and Uganda is $700 per person.
