Private Trip
Cost: from $3,028 per person based on two people sharing.
Travel into the volcanic forest to meet mountain gorillas in this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Setting out from Kigali, you’ll drive the two-and-a-half hours north, climbing into the highlands as you head to your accommodation for the night near Volcanoes National Park HQ. There is a chance to canoe the Mukungwa River and explore the Musanze town on foot or if you are adventurous you can start very early to join a group to hike the Bisoke Volcano.
The next morning you’ll be assigned an experienced team of trackers and guides to walk into the Virungas to find one of the gorilla families inhabiting the reserve’s Rwandan side.
Upon your return, you’ll have a chance to share your experience over lunch at a mountain lodge or our favorite town restaurant before returning to Kigali.
