1-Day Volcanoes NP Gorilla Tour

• You'll be collected from the airport.

Because gorilla trekking requires travelers to report to the Kinigi briefing point at 7:00 AM, an early departure is essential for this same-day safari.
Arrive at the Volcanoes National Park headquarters in Kinigi. After the briefing, you will travel to the appropriate trailhead and begin your trek into the forest.

Watch the silverback as he keeps a watchful eye over his family. Observe mothers caring for their young and juveniles playing among the vegetation.
You will have up to one hour with the gorilla family, observing their natural behavior and taking photographs without flash, while following the instructions of your ranger guide.
It is an encounter that many travelers describe as one of the most emotional and memorable experiences of their lives.

Depart Volcanoes National Park and begin the scenic drive south toward Kigali.
This is your opportunity to relax, reflect on your gorilla encounter and enjoy the beautiful Rwandan countryside.
