Detailed Itinerary.
Day 1: Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park.
A Judith Safaris tour guide will collect you up from your accommodation at 4:30 a.m. and take you to Kinigi, where the volcanoes national park offices are located. The drive takes about 2-3 hours through gorgeous mountainous country side, confirming why Rwanda is known as “The Land of a Thousand Hills”. You will arrive at the Kinigi offices by 7:00 a.m., in time for the standard briefing from a head guide on the rules and procedures to be followed while viewing mountain gorillas. Once you’ve completed the briefing, you can begin tracking the gorilla family. When you spot the gorillas, follow the guides’ directions. Watching mountain gorillas is breathtaking.
You will only get an hour with these powerful apes, yet you might spend hours simply watching the little ones play and roll around. Playful and inquisitive, mountain gorillas will frequently approach you. Once more, pay attention to your guide’s instructions and maintain your composure when you’re among the gorillas. Don’t move abruptly. After gorilla trekking, you will return to Kigali by way of the jungle, arriving late at night to catch your flight, if it is that day.
