BUCKET LIST TRIP: Gorilla Trekking in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest with Vivo Barefoot

Join me on a bucket list trip to Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in search of the mountain gorillas that live there. This has been something I wanted to do since I was tiny, so getting to be there was a very emotional experience for me.

Thank…

  1. Don’t worry. I’m a guy in my 40s and have a feeling I’m going to shed tears of joy when I see them on my gorilla trek. I fell in love with them thanks to my anthropology classes in college. I love all primates but I’m especially drawn to the gorilla.

  5. Absolutely fantastic 10 out 10…David Attenborough should hand you his job when he retires.
    The filming ,your presentation,music,and editing is A1+.
    We are planning a trip to Bwindi for 2025 ..we have already got 2024 sorted with Tanzania in September.
    I saw you were using a 70-200 2.8.. what were your video settings?… so sharp !!!
    Also because my wife will do the video on her R3 … I will be doing photos on 1dx ii.
    Is a 24-70 2.8 too short? … I’ve got 100-400… but I’m worried about low light .
    Also got GoPro for really close stuff and it’s nice and light.
    We fell in love with the gorilla eyes they are like glass!
    Well done again!

  6. Amazing footage. We are doing this trip in August. At 65 years old, I guess we should start conditioning for the trip. Purchased the shoes with your code. They look very easy to pack where space is limited on a trip like this. We made it to the top of the monastery in Petra last year which was 800 jagged steps, so hopefully we can manage the trekking through the mud with the shoes.

  8. As a close neighbour of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, I feel honoured and so proud of you in that you were actually able to interact and get to learn more about our close relatives-the mountains gorillas.

  14. I visited Bwindi in 1998, the first time for me seeing wild gorillas too. We didn't get the amazing views that you did, but it was still an incredible experience, and one I will always remember. However my thoughts are also with the victims of the attack in 1999 just a few months after my visit.

  19. The gorilla will live forever with you, it is now part of your soul as you are part of their's. Showing your own emotion talking about your experience with them allows us all to see how caring you are about them. Keep up the good work, a pleasure watching the videos.

  20. What an incredible trip and superb shots. That's some rain forest. At least it didn't appear too hot, but didn't like the look of all those flies or midges (hope they didn't bite). Just like with Attenborough, the gorillas looked pretty chilled and didn't mind you or eating all those leaves (I guess they must eat other stuff as well).
