I arranged this last minute with my itinerary planner Denis and he was very helpful in the logistics, permits, and understanding the details. Note that I was very lucky to arrange this in less than one week during the low season and it is usually not possible.
Fortunately, I was assigned my guide, Godwin, who was an amazing guide and a wonderful person who taught me about the animals and life in Uganda. I planned so last minute that I had none of the proper gear, cash, or clothing, and Godwin leant me his boots, loaned me cash, and borrow/rent clothing for the journey.
Please be more prepared than I was but it was an incredible experience. People say it is once in a lifetime, but I would go again and bring friends or family. Also highly recommend the Gorilla Leisure Lodge and visiting the Batwa tribe and community walk.
