Best Time For Gorilla Trek

One of the advantages of tracking gorillas during the rainy season is that you find the park with less visitors/crowds. This implies that you can have the forest all to yourself and have more close encounters with the primates. The fewer trackers are divided into much smaller groups to visit each family.  You can also book gorilla permits and a tour a few weeks or days to the trip. Tourists who wish to combine gorilla trekking with birding will find the rainy season perfect. This is the breeding season and the forests are full of activity. Traveling during the wet season is generally less expensive compared to the dry season because most hotels reduce their rates to attract more guests. You can stay in one of the best luxury lodges that would seem too expensive during the peak season.
