Rwanda Golden Monkey Trekking Volcanoes National Park – Kigali

Another early morning start for a trip to track the golden monkeys. These primates are beautiful, endangered & more agile than the mountain gorillas. They live in bamboo thickets on the lower slopes of the mountains & tracking them acclimatizes you perfectly to the slight altitude marking your last views of the park's environs. Drive for roughly 2.5 – 3.5 hours south-east back to Kigali marking an end of your 3 Day Gorilla & Golden Monkey Trekking Tour Volcanoes NP. Your private guide and 4WD vehicle will drop you at your convenience location or at the airport. End.
