1. Arriving at the wrong park gate
A common (and rather tragic) mistake on the part of many would-be gorilla trekkers in Uganda is arriving at a different part of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park to what’s on their permit. Bwindi is a large park of 331 km² (128 mi²), and comprises four regions:
- Buhoma in the northwest
- Ruhija in the east
- Rushaga in the south
- Nkuringo in the southwest

When you book a gorilla trekking permit with Car Rental Congo limited , the team will explain to you the section of your gorilla trekking ( you obtain one for a specific portion). And this can’t be changed. So if you show up in Buhoma with a trekking permit for Nkuringo, for instance, you’ll pay the fine fee of $$150 per person!
2. Arriving on the wrong day
The second common mistake that visitors coming to see mountain gorillas make is rocking up on the wrong day. Permits are issued for specific dates and are non-transferable. This is because trek groups fill up far in advance. Note that there are also no refunds.
3. Not bringing your passport
Visitors must bring their passports on the day of the gorilla trek as park officials check these against permits to ensure only rightful permit holders are admitted to the park. Forget your passport and you may not be allowed into the park! It’s possible you’ll be able to dash back to your accommodation to fetch it, but at the very least that will be stressful. At worst, you’ll miss the trek.
