Nkuringo gorilla permits and safaris.

Permits to see the Nkuringo gorillas are valid in one of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park’s four gorilla trekking districts. The Uganda Wildlife Authority also issues daily gorilla permits for Nkuringo. The southern portion of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is home to the Nkuringo area.

And for those interested in trekking in the Nkuirngo sector, the fastest approach is to fly to Kisoro air strip, then transfer to the Nkuringo area; another option is to drive 8-9 hours from Kampala/Entebbe; and finally, there is a route that starts in Kigali. We can set you up with an all-inclusive gorilla safari to the Nkruingo region and provide you the most recent and relevant information on trekking safaris with gorillas in that area.

Since there are two different gorilla groups in the Nkuringo Gorilla area—the Nkruingo Gorilla Group and the Christmas Gorilla Group—there are a total of sixteen permits available for daily gorilla trekking in the area. Keep in mind that eight persons are permitted to trek each gorilla family daily, all year round. Contact Monumental Expeditions and Safaris with your inquiry regarding nkuringo gorilla permits, and we will assist you in checking availability with the Uganda Wildlife Authority.

Once we find availability, we will inform you and proceed to reserve the permits on our system for a week while we await your payment to clear. Our safari expert will email you a scanned copy of the permits once they are in hand, but the gorilla permits are cards that are produced around the trekking date, so you won’t get them until then.
