Day 2

Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park

Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park

After breakfast from your booked lodge/hotel, our English/French-speaking driver-guide will pick you up and drive you to the park office for registration. There, you'll be briefed about gorilla behaviors and how to behave while visiting the park. The driver-guide will drive you from the park office to the start of the walking point.
From here, you will hike with a local guide who will help you to enjoy the gorillas and the entire park. On arrival, the guide will give you the time to take as many photos as possible and enjoy the trek.
After that guided trek, you will go back to the driver who will take you back to Kigali and drop you off at the airport or at your hotel.
