Gorilla Tracking in Rwanda & Uganda with Stephen Mills
To make an enquiry please call orcomplete our enquiry form
Stephen Mills is delighted to be returning to both Rwanda and Uganda, where he last tracked mountain gorillas in 2006. He is keen to see how each group has evolved and are surviving. The process of habituating gorilla families is long and unpredictable, but the management approach in Rwanda and Uganda is highly commendable. Stephen will be sharing this information and other research work and conservation initiatives with you.
You’ll be flying in to Rwanda and out of Uganda on this safari, so this maximizes the best use of your time. Accommodation is in conveniently located lodges close to the park gates.
Your professional naturalist
Stephen is an excellent communicator and knowledgeable on many current wildlife issues that makes him a natural host and leader of wildlife trips. As a professional naturalist he can explain the physiology of animal behaviour. He is also a very good birder. Stephen has been leading small private safaris for Spencer Scott Travel for the last 20 years mainly to look for tigers in India and Nepal, ‘big cats’ and wild dogs in East Africa, as well as mountain gorillas in Rwanda and Uganda, polar bears in The Arctic and the wonderful wildlife in The Galapagos Islands. Stephen is very down to earth and travelling with him is always fun, informative and relaxed.
