Home FAQ Gorilla trekking

Wi-Fi at gorilla lodges?

Direct answer

Wi-Fi is unreliable at most Bwindi lodges — luxury properties (Clouds Mountain, Mahogany Springs, Gorilla Forest Camp) offer limited connectivity in main areas, often slow and weather-dependent. Budget guesthouses near Rushaga and Ruhija gates frequently have none. Treat the forest as a digital detox; download maps and confirmations in Entebbe or Kigali before transfer.

Overview

Uganda combines mountain gorilla trekking, classic savannah game viewing, chimpanzee tracking, birding, and cultural experiences in a compact circuit.
