Luxury wildlife safari tours now available for 2026 in Uganda’s prime gorilla habitats

(TRAVPR.COM) Kampala, Uganda – February 4, 2026 – Rebo Safari, a leading provider of bespoke luxury safaris in East Africa, today announced the launch of its Gorilla Trekking Uganda experiences, offering travelers an immersive encounter with mountain gorillas in their natural habitats. The new tours promise unmatched wildlife access, expert guides, and fully curated itineraries for discerning safari enthusiasts.

Uganda is rapidly emerging as a top destination for wildlife tourism, with the number of visitors seeking gorilla trekking experiences increasing by 18% year over year, according to the Uganda Tourism Board. Travelers are looking for safe, personalized, and eco-conscious safari options in 2026.

Rebo Safari is launching curated, small-group gorilla trekking packages that:

• Secure UWA gorilla permits and arrange guide/porter support for travelers.

• Prioritize stays in community-run lodges and hire local trackers and guides.

• Commit 10% of net profits from gorilla trekking departures to community conservation and livelihood projects in Bwindi and Mgahinga.

• Offer carbon-offset options and pre-trip briefings to minimize disease and disturbance risks to gorillas.

By combining direct permit booking with community revenue sharing, Rebo Safari aims to:

• Reduce booking friction and reservation lead time for international guests.

• Channel predictable tourism income to adjacent communities (schools, health clinics, anti-poaching support).

• Support sustainable tourism that aligns with recent conservation wins — contributing to habitat protection and anti-poaching through local partnerships.
  Initial launch capacity: monthly departures of small groups (4–8 guests) to ensure low disturbance; scalable based on permit availability and UWA scheduling.

“Gorilla trekking is a privilege that must be matched with responsibility,” said Natasha Birungi, Founder & CEO, Rebo Safari. “We designed these Uganda itineraries to remove logistical friction for travelers while returning measurable support to the communities whose stewardship protects the gorillas.”
