What is Gorilla Habituation Experience?

Unlike mountain gorilla trekking on a Uganda Safaris Tour holiday, gorilla habituation takes an entire day. Habituation is the preparation of a mountain gorilla to the presence of humans so that they can be considered ready for the trek. This is your surefire way to experience the thrill of these popular gentle giants and spend more time with them on your Uganda gorilla safaris tour.

If you plan to indulge in this exclusive adventure, you’ll want to wake up early and make your way to the park headquarters. There you will meet our guides, and a group of scientists who will be your gorilla safari tour companions throughout the day of your trekking holiday in Uganda. They go on to give you a brief briefing on what to expect and what not to do.

How Do Gorilla Safaris in Uganda Start?

The Uganda gorilla safari tour begins by going further into the tropical jungle to find a specific family of mountain gorillas to acclimate to. You have to keep in mind that these monkeys are not fully adapted and may be uncomfortable with your presence. But that is the main reason you are here to “tame” them enough to tolerate the presence of humans. You just need to keep calm and follow all instructions.

Uganda Safaris Tour‘ mountain gorilla habituation usually takes two years before a particular gorilla family is deemed “fit” for trekking. Spend a full day with these incredible monkeys to see how they behave unlike any other monkey in this natural environment in Africa. Scientists are constantly reminding you of some gorilla body language and lifestyle that you may never have heard of.

It is relatively more expensive than the mountain gorilla trek as the Uganda Safaris Tour mountain gorilla safari lasts all day and gives you an exclusive gorilla experience at the best location. The Uganda Tourist Mountain Gorilla Habituation Permit is $1,500 per person. The fee includes a park entrance, a guide, a player, and a full day in the tropical desert.
