Gorilla tracking in Uganda, for the months of April and May this year, will be considerably more affordable for tourists coming to The Pearl of Africa for a big game safari after the Uganda Wildlife Authority announced that tariffs will be slashed in order to boost the sale of permits during the low season months.

Regular tariffs now stand at US $600 per person per tracking for foreign nonresident visitors but for April and May the cost is reduced to US $350, aimed to attract more tourists to Uganda and in particular into the two gorilla national parks of Bwindi and Mgahinga.
