The walk in
The briefingRangers first
Your group meets the park rangers early. They cover voice levels, distance rules and time limits with the animals.
The climbSteep and muddy
Gorilla days can involve hours of steep, muddy forest walking. Bring sturdy boots and a light day pack. Your guide sets the pace.
The familyThen, quiet
The trackers find the family. Infants tumble in the leaves a few metres away and the forest goes still.
The momentFace to face
A silverback and his family, close enough to hear them breathe.
