Gorilla Trekking from Hong Kong – One of the once-in-a-lifetime safari experiences in Africa is gorilla tracking, which can be done in Rwanda and Uganda. One of the nations that sees a significant increase in tourists visiting Africa for gorilla trekking safaris is Hongkong.
From any Hongkong city, including Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan, Kowloon, Sham Shui Po, Wan Chai, Central and Western, Kwai Chung, Tuen Mun and Yuen Long Kau Hui, you may take a gorilla tracking safari in Uganda and Rwanda.
Hong Kong International Airport, Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport, Macau International Airport, Kai tak international airport and Zhuhai International Airport are just a few of the Hong Kong airports from which one can fly to Uganda or Rwanda for the gorilla trekking excursion.
Several airlines, including, Emirates, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, Ethiopian Airlines, Swiss International Air Lines and Air France, offer flights from major Hong Kong airports to Uganda or Rwanda, making it easier to travel there for your gorilla trekking trip.
Best Time for Hong Kong Tourists to Trek Gorillas
Although gorilla trekking is possible throughout the year, June through August and December through February are the ideal times to visit.
Forest trails are less slick during this time since they are comparatively dry. Additionally, during these months, you have a better chance of seeing gorillas in dry weather.
Visa Arrangements for Hong Kong Tourists
Regardless of their reason for traveling, all foreign visitors to Uganda need to have a current visa. This is particularly valid for visitors on safari to Uganda.
Uganda tourist visas can be single or multiple entry and allow travelers to stay for around three months, depending on the specifics of your trip or safari.
If you would like to stay longer than the specified period, it is advised that you apply for an extension at the Immigration Headquarters in Kampala prior to the initial visa pass expiring.
