1-Day Rwanda Gorillas Trekking from Kigali

• You'll be collected from the airport.

The day begins with an early start. Your driver-guide will pick you up from your hotel or the Kigali International Airport (KGL) at approximately 4:00 AM to 4:30 AM. This early start is crucial to allow ample time for the journey to Volcanoes National Park and the subsequent gorilla trekking activity.
The journey offers scenic views of the Rwandan countryside, including the rolling hills and landscapes that have earned Rwanda the nickname "The Land of a Thousand Hills."
Upon arrival at the Volcanoes National Park headquarters in Kinigi, you will be briefed by park officials about the rules and regulations of gorilla trekking

You will also be assigned to a gorilla family to track, with groups typically consisting of a maximum of eight people. The trek's duration can vary from 1 to 8 hours, depending on the location of the gorilla family. After the hour with the gorillas, you will trek back out of the forest. Lunch will be provided, and transfer back to Kigali.
