3 Day Gorilla Tracking Rwanda Safari

Upon arrival at Kigali International Airport, you will be met by our guide, outside the airport arrivals section and after a briefing, we visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial with Lunch and a city tour in Kigali.
We later depart on a scenic drive North Westwards through the beautiful terraced hillsides that display Rwanda’s landscape. Arriving at Ruhengeri, the base for Gorilla trekking at the Volcanoes National park. The town itself is located only 25km from the Uganda border, is relatively a small city of about 70,000 people. The constant flow of humanity is quite remarkable. The Town has great views of the surrounding volcanoes. People are very friendly here and although a former Belgian colony (and thus French-speaking), many people speak English here.
We overnight at our booked accommodation in Ruhengeri after being served dinner.

Our trek again starts in the cultivated foothills of the Virunga’s offering stirring views in all directions, As we approach higher altitudes, you will be immersed in the mysterious intimacy of the rainforest, alive with the colorful birdcalls, chattering golden monkeys, littered with fresh spoor of the mountains’ elusive buffalo and elephant. Through gaps in the canopy, the magnificent peaks are glimpsed, among the highest in Africa yet easily accessible, beckon an ascent.
Upon sighting the gentle giants, you will enjoy an observational interaction with them for a magical hour as they go about their daily life, feed, play, and rest. After the trek, rejoin your driver Guide for a transfer to your lodge for lunch.
