A once in a lifetime wildlife experience: track wild golden monkeys in Rwanda and mountain gorillas in Uganda, and get a taste of the varying culture in each of these exceptional countries.

Ascend into the ancient montane forests of the Albertine Rift to see the beautiful crater lake of Bisoke. Track the endemic golden monkeys of Volcanoes National Park, and enjoy some local hospitality in the northern border town of Musanze.

Cross into Uganda for the night and spend the following morning climbing into the mists of Mgahinga to search for the mountain gorillas living in this international reserve.
