Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
Gorilla trekking is the big drawer to the region, and for good reason. This is the best value place to see mountain gorillas on the planet and there really is no experience like it. The lodges are all eco-friendly and boast stunning views over the Virunga range. Domestic flights are the best way to get here and road is also an option for the more adventurous.
