Trip directly to Volcanoes National Park after arriving in Kigali. It’s a beautiful three-hour trip north through the verdant, green landscape. With a stunning row of volcanoes stretching far into the distance, Volcanoes National Park has an amazing panorama.
Choose a hotel to stay at. Relax and get ready for the gorilla tracking the next morning throughout the evening.
Gorilla tracking in Volcanoes National Park involves waking up at sunrise and driving to the park headquarters for briefing, porters, and tea and coffee. Local porters can assist with the guide. The tracking can last 90 minutes or the entire morning, depending on the family group. You will spend one hour with the gorillas, sometimes moving around or following them. The guide will ensure you are in the best spots for beautiful pictures. After breakfast, you’ll prepare for the morning golden monkey tracking.
Olden monkey tracking is an adventurous way to explore the forest, spotting indigenous, elusive, and bright orange monkeys. Named for their orange bodies, these fast-moving creatures are more elusive than gorillas. After a refreshing stay at the hotel, you’ll be transferred back to Kigali in the afternoon.
