Trip Summary:
This 2 day Rwanda gorilla safari is designed for visitors with limited time in Africa but would wish to track the endangered mountain Gorillas. This gorilla tour takes you to Rwanda, the land of a thousand hills in the Volcanoes National Park where Gorilla tracking can be done with ease on only a two day trip.
Trip Details:
Day 1: Arrival
On arrival you will meet the company representative either at the Kigali International Airport or any other agreed upon location who will welcome you and transfer you to your hotel for dinner and overnight.
Day 2: Gorilla Tracking and Hiking
After an early breakfast, you will hike up to the bamboo forest and spend an hour in the company of the gorillas, see how they feed and play with each other then return to the lodge for preparations of a trip back home.
However, Gorilla tracking can be strenuous, you will need to carry packed lunch, drinking water, wear comfortable boots or jungle shoes suitable for steep muddy slopes, put on ear plugs for those who feel uncomfortable with jungle sounds and take a rain jacket. Walking sticks will be made available for those that require one by the park rangers but at the end of it all it’s the most exciting activity that one couldn’t miss in a safari.
End of Trip
Note: Gorilla Tracking fees in Rwanda are a bit higher ($1500) compared to those of Uganda ($700) and DR Congo ($400)
