Your enquiry

When, and who is coming?

Permits are dated and capped, so availability on your dates is the first fact. Ages and mobility are the second, because both affect what is possible and neither bends at the park gate.

Our gorilla specialist replies within 24 hours with what is available, lodges near the right trailhead, and an itemised price.

  • Permit availability checked for your actual dates
  • An honest answer on whether the walk suits everybody coming
  • Permits itemised rather than folded into a nightly rate
  • No deposit to see a plan, and no obligation at any point

Who answers

Founded in 2017 as East Africa’s only dedicated travel magazine, Nomad still publishes, so the people planning your trip are the ones who write about these places for a living.
