3 Nights / 4 Days
Although it could theoretically be achieved in 3 days, we recommend the shortest gorilla trekking itinerary takes 4 days, giving you time to learn about the remarkable history of Rwanda, and to allow you to take in the exhaustingly beautiful scenery and wonderful people.
On arrival at Kigali International Airport you will be met and transferred to the city centre to spend your first night.
This morning you will be collected by your private guide and taken on a city tour, including a visit to the Genocide Memorial, before heading north to the Volcanoes National Park.The scenery is unendingly beautiful, and numerous photo opportunities present themselves.
You will wake up early this morning, and with much excitement, as you are taken to the meeting point for your gorilla trekking experience. You will be assigned a group before starting your trek up the slopes into the lush forest of Volcanoes National Park. Once with the gorillas you will have an amazing 1 hour to observe them, holding your breath as they forage in the foliage around you.
This morning you will be driven back to Kigali and dropped off at the airport in time for your departure flight.
If you have the time to extend your trip, a stay on Lake Kivu is highly recommended, and will provide you with a "bush and beach" safari with a difference.
Although born and raised a city boy in Johannesburg, the thrill and experience of being in the African bush has been an obsession of mine from a young age. Read More...
