1-Day Rwanda Gorilla Trekking Expedition

• A transfer from the airport can be arranged for an extra cost.

Begin your unforgettable journey with a 4:15 AM pick-up from your Kigali hotel by a professional driver-guide from Vazquez Tours & Travel. After a short briefing, enjoy a scenic 2.5-hour drive to Volcanoes National Park. Upon arrival, meet your expert guide, receive a gorilla trekking briefing, and join a small group assigned to a specific mountain gorilla family.

The trek may last from 90 minutes to several hours, culminating in a magical one-hour encounter with the gorillas in their natural habitat, an intimate and truly unforgettable experience.

After this extraordinary experience, you’ll return to the starting point, where your driver-guide awaits to take you to the Silverback Restaurant in Musanze town for a well-deserved lunch. Following your meal, journey back to Kigali, where you’ll either be dropped off at your hotel or Kigali International Airport, bidding farewell to an incredible day of discovery.
