Gorilla trekking permits

Vehicle

A well-equipped car should be chosen such that tourists don’t find it a burden on their luxury trip. A land cruiser is always recommended.

Reliable Tour Operator

Tourists should always take note and book with a reliable tour operator to handle all their travel arrangements so as to ease the booking process.
