When to book small group gorilla tours?

The best time of the year to travel or book your small group gorilla tour is during the dry season or months of the year. Each year, there are 2 dry season phases that offer excellent gorilla trekking experiences that is from June, July, August to September and December, January to February.

We recommend dry season for your small group gorilla tours because it is during this period when the parks receive the least or no rainfall. However, it is a peak season and it means, you should obtain your gorilla permit early enough. Avoid last minute booking for gorilla permits given the high demand- secure your permit at least 2 to 6 months before you travel to track gorillas.

Obtaining Uganda/Rwanda/Congo gorilla permits is what grants you opportunity to visit mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. You get a chance to be assigned to a habituated gorilla group in a destination you booked the permit.
