Plan Your Uganda, Rwanda or East Africa Safari

Start with the experience that matters most, then choose a realistic duration and route. Every itinerary can be adjusted around permit availability, your arrival airport, travel pace, group size and preferred accommodation.


Choose by Experience

Gorilla Safaris

Routes built around gorilla permit availability, the correct trekking sector and the shortest sensible transfers into Bwindi, Mgahinga or Volcanoes National Park.

Explore Gorilla Safaris

Wildlife Safaris

Private game-drive journeys through Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, sequenced to reduce backtracking and balance savannah parks with forest experiences.

Explore East Africa Wildlife Safaris

Primate Safaris

Combine gorilla trekking with chimpanzee tracking in Kibale or Kyambura, golden monkeys in Mgahinga, and the western Uganda wildlife circuit.

Tailor-Made Safaris

Use a custom route if you have fixed flights, want a fly-in transfer, need family-friendly pacing, are combining countries, or simply do not fit a standard package.

Choose by Travel Style

  • Private and tailor-made — Your route, pace and accommodation are designed around your group.
  • Fly-in — Use domestic flights where they materially reduce long road transfers.
  • Active and hiking-focused — Add forest crossings, volcano hikes, birding or community walks with enough recovery time.
  • Family and multigenerational — Adjust driving hours, room arrangements and activities around different ages and mobility needs.

Why Travel With Orugano Safaris?

  • Based beside Bwindi — We understand the trekking sectors, road access and practical differences between routes.
  • Direct permit coordination — We arrange gorilla and chimpanzee permits through the relevant authorities.
  • Private local support — Your transport, guides, accommodation and activities are coordinated as one itinerary.
  • Honest route design — We recommend the route and lodge combination that fits your permits and arrival point, including properties we do not own.

Planning Gorilla Trekking in 2026 or 2027?

  • Check permits first — Permit availability should anchor the itinerary before non-refundable travel arrangements are made.
  • Book peak dates early — Popular travel periods can sell out months ahead.
  • Match the sector and lodge — A permit in the wrong Bwindi sector can create a very early and avoidable transfer.
  • Request a current quotation — Permit fees, lodge rates and flight schedules can change, so we confirm them for your exact dates.

Send us your dates, group size and arrival airport and we will recommend the best-fit route.
