1-Day Rwanda Gorilla Trekking Expedition

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

Rise early for a 4:15 AM pickup from your Kigali hotel and begin your journey to Volcanoes National Park with your professional and experienced driver-guide. As Rwanda’s rolling hills unfold along the scenic 2.5-hour drive, anticipation builds for the unforgettable encounter ahead. At the park, meet your trekking guide, receive a briefing, and join a small group of up to eight trekkers before entering the forest in search of your gorilla family.

Your trek may take 90 minutes to several hours, but every step brings you closer to a truly extraordinary moment: one unforgettable hour in the presence of mountain gorillas in the wild. After this once-in-a-lifetime encounter, enjoy a well-deserved lunch at Imbuga Restaurant in town before a relaxed drive back to Kigali, with drop-off at your hotel or Kigali International Airport.
