1-Day Gorilla Trek Tour to Volcanoes National Park

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

04h30: You will be picked from your city hotel and proceed to Musanze and Volcanoes National Park.
Arrive in time for briefing at the park’s headquarters that takes place at 07h00 over hot coffee (please carry snacks or a breakfast box from your hotel).
At 08h00, you will be transferred to the trailhead where your guided walk will start, in search of the Mountain Gorillas.
Rwanda is now home to twelve habituated groups of mountain gorillas that are scattered all over Volcanoes National Park. Gorilla trekking can be arduous – some of the groups wander high up the mountainsides – but it is always utterly rewarding.
After this amazing experience, you will descend from the mountains and rejoin your driver guide. Proceed to Five volcanoes boutique hotel, where you will have lunch, as they clean your boots.
15h30: Have a scenic leisurely drive back to Kigali. Arrive at 18h00 and drop off at hotel.
