East Africa is a year-round destination, but the best time for safaris is during the dry seasons (June–September and December–February) when wildlife viewing is at its best. Gorilla trekking is also easier during these months due to drier trails.

Gorilla trekking can be moderately challenging, depending on the location of the gorilla family you are assigned. Treks can last between 1 to 6 hours through hilly and forested terrain. However, porters are available to assist, and our team ensures you are well-prepared for the adventure.

Yes, most travelers require a visa to enter East Africa. You can apply for an eVisa online or get an East African Tourist Visa if you plan to visit Kenya and Rwanda as well. Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates.

Essentials include:
Lightweight, neutral-colored clothing for game drives
Sturdy hiking boots (for trekking safaris)
Insect repellent and sunscreen
Binoculars and a camera for wildlife spotting
A rain jacket (especially for gorilla trekking)
