Save your money!

Feed Bengati bananas and cantaloupe! He even eats the peel! Bet you won’t get to see that on your trip! Plus he’s much better behaved then those wild gorillas!

I can’t put a price on the experience that I had with the gorilla. It was awesome and I wouldn’t trade it. Plus he gave me a high five. Will the wild gorillas do that?

Danny adds: besides haven’t you seen Congo!

I’m not sure if you can put a price on this experience. But I say, everything has different prices on this trip. Some will be really cheap and some will be more expensive. Sometime is gonna be expensive, so I’d make it this. Hiking, which you love to do, through the jungle to see gorillas. Sounds awesome to me.

I agree with Lisa. While it would be exciting. There are so many things you all want to do and the behind the scene at the Louisville Zoo is very upclose and personal. Lisa fed a gorilla and I thought a tiger was going to eat me.

Consider this your splurge item. Its not like you’ll be spending $500 for everything you do on the trip. Do it.

Call Angela and set-up a time to go to the Louisville Zoo and feed the gorillas.

I got to do it and it was amazing. Not in the wild, but still face to face with a gorilla. I probably got closer than this excursion will get you all and it was free!

So I say, save your money and visit the zoo which also supports conservation.
