Arrive In Rwanda | Transfer To Bwindi Impenetrable National Park | Batwa Cultural Interaction

On arrival in Rwanda in the morning hours, you will be welcomed and picked up by our Kubwa Five Safaris guide who will be holding an A4 paper with your name printed on it at Kigali International Airport then be transferred to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, home to the famous mountain gorillas.

Supporting almost half the world's mountain gorillas, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is arguably the best place anywhere in the world to track these charismatic gentle giants through their misty forest home.

On arrival, you will embark on a community walk where you will visit the Batwa, which is an indigenous group of people that have lived in the forest for 500,000 years. You will enjoy traditional dances and drama from them.

The Last Day With Us | Gorilla Trekking | Transfer To Kigali | Visit Local Market | Airport Transfer

After breakfast, head out to the park head offices with your packed lunches and have a briefing about the do’s and don’ts while in the park with gorillas.

You will head out for gorilla trekking through the misty rain forest. Trekking can take 2 hours or up to 6 hours
depending on the location of the gentle giants. Make sure you carry enough water, sturdy shoes, non-flash cameras, and rain jackets.

Spending time in the presence of mountain gorillas is a real privilege, so we're sure you'll enjoy trekking deep into the forest to find them. This is one of the most memorable experiences you can have while on safari.

At the end of this long and exciting adventure, you will be driven to Kigali where you will have the local market tour. Feel
free to buy some local crafts, cloth and jewelry that will remind you of your Rwanda safari.

After the local market tour, you will proceed to Kigali International Airport for your scheduled flight back home.
