Gorilla habituation is a unique process that helps Gorillas become familiar and comfortable with human presence. This journey takes about two years, during which the gorillas are gradually acclimated to their human visitors. Unlike gorilla trekking, where visitors spend just one hour with the gorillas, habituation allows for up to four hours of observation. During this time, researchers collect valuable data to deepen our understanding of mountain gorilla behavior. <h3>In Africa, gorilla habituation occurs exclusively in the Rushaga sector of Bwindi National Park. Currently, only two families are habituated, with a maximum of four visitors allowed per family each day. This means only eight people can participate in gorilla habituation daily, making permits highly sought after. To avoid disappointment, it's essential to book through Nirvana tours well in advance.</h3> <em>Dinner and overnight at Nkuringo Bwindi Gorilla Safari Lodge.</em> <strong>Day 5: Transfer back to Kisoro Airstrip for your morning scheduled flight to Entebbe International airport.
