Itinerary
Your day will begin early, with a 4:20 AM pickup and a packed breakfast. The 2.5-hour drive to the Volcanoes National Park reception will take you through the stunning landscapes of Rwanda’s northern province. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed with a cup of coffee while your guide processes your gorilla permit and passport. Afterward, you'll attend a briefing with park officials, learning about the specific gorilla family you'll visit. Following the briefing, you'll drive from the reception to the park entry, where the trek starts. The trek’s duration may vary depending on the location of the gorilla family—ranging from short to long. Once you encounter the gorillas, you'll spend one magical hour observing them in their natural habitat. After this incredible experience, you will return to the parking area, and your guide will take you for a late lunch. Finally, you will be driven back to Kigali, where the trip concludes, marking the end of your unforgettable gorilla trekking adventure.

About Kigali
Kigali is Rwanda's capital, a tidy city on green hills in the middle of the country, with memorials, craft markets and routes to gorilla country.
Kigali spreads across several hills in the heart of Rwanda, at about 1,500 metres, so the air is mild all year. The Kigali Genocide Memorial tells the story of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi and honours those buried there. The Kandt House Museum holds natural history displays in the house of the German colonial resident Richard Kandt, and the Inema Arts Centre shows contemporary Rwandan art.
