  I am staying at the Heaven Boutique hotel. I have not yet heard from the driver - is the pick up still 9:00am?
- Kawira Safaris LtdOperator•Written July 2026
  Your guide will be Hassan. He's currently finalizing another trip he's on. And yes the pick up still remains 9am tomorrow morning.

  Traveler•Written June 2022
  Do we need to have a covid test 72 hours before this trip and also do we need to have the yellow fever jab? How much would I need to pay now for it if I book it? Also, do you do a trip to see the grave of Dian Fossey?
- Kawira Safaris LtdOperator•Written June 2022
  With the current covid protocols, there's no need for covid testing, just need to be fully vaccinated. For Dian Fossey hike and Dian Fossey museum, this we can arrange on the ground.

  Traveler•Written June 2022
  Do I need the yellow fever jab? How much deposit do you require now?
- Kawira Safaris LtdOperator•Written June 2022
  Yes you'll need, they do check but not often as most the guest who have crossed into Uganda haven't been asked. For deposit since Gorilla permits aren't included in this tour price, you can just send us directly the permits and we'll go ahead and reserve them on your behalf. You can send us 50% for gorilla permits($700) we reserve the slots and balance closer to the date.

  Traveler•Written June 2022
  If the permits are not included in the price of the trip, could you tell me how much the trip is all together including permits per person please?
- Kawira Safaris LtdOperator•Written June 2022
  If permits are paid direct it would be cheaper @$1388, that's $688 + $700. Per person. But through the system it would be$ 1600. Per person. The reason is because we don't add commission on permits.
