Transfer from Kigali, Golden Monkey Trekking and Drive to Bwindi

We will pick you up from your hotel in Kigali at 5:00am and transfer you to the park head offices to join the other golden monkeys trekkers. You will meet the ranger for a brief talk about the activity and the park. By 8:00am, you will transfer to the trailhead just outside the park. During the trek, you will enjoy great views of the mountain scenery as you search for the monkeys. The golden monkeys live near the park's edge in the bamboo forests, where the ground is relatively flat and easy to trek. Once you find the monkeys, you will follow them as they feed and observe how skillfully they pick the young bamboo leaves from the tip of the bamboo tree. They may also move out of the park into the potato fields and exhibit their love for potatoes. After spending an hour with them, you will return to the trailhead, drive back to the lodge for lunch, and proceed to the border for clearance before heading to Bwindi.

Dinner and overnight stay will be at Gift Of Nature Lodge.

Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi and Transfer to Kigali

Kick-starting your day at 7:00am, we will have a quick breakfast before heading to the park headquarters for a detailed briefing on the gorilla trek. During the briefing, you will learn the dos and don'ts for a memorable and safe experience. The gorilla trek can last between two to eight hours; in some cases, it may take up to a day to find the silverback gorillas. You will have the opportunity to spend at least an hour with the gorillas, possibly more if time allows. A packed lunch will be provided and can be consumed at a suitable location during the trek, as the duration of the trek is unpredictable. After the gorilla trek, we will return to Kigali for drop-off.
