Based in Buhoma · At the Edge of Bwindi Forest

Your Local Team in Uganda

We are not a booking platform. We are the people who drive you, guide you and know every road, ranger and lodge personally. Based in Buhoma village — where gorilla trekking starts.

Our Story

Misty Gorilla Expeditions Ltd is a locally owned Uganda travel company based in Buhoma village, right at the entrance to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. We are not a middleman or booking platform — we are the team that actually drives you, walks with you and knows every park ranger by name.

We organize gorilla trekking, wildlife safaris across all 10 national parks, private airport transfers and cultural community experiences. Every trip is planned individually — no copy-paste itineraries, no group buses, no outsourced guides. When you book with us, Duncan picks you up at the airport himself.

As a partner of Hope on the Road (hopeontheroad.org), we are committed to responsible tourism that directly benefits the communities around Bwindi. Part of every booking supports local schools, orphanages and community projects in Buhoma.
