1-Day Rwanda Mountain Gorillas Tour

• A transfer from the airport can be arranged for an extra cost.

At 4:30 am, our English/French speaking driver-guide will come to pick you up at your hotel/ accommodation/residence in Kigali after your early morning breakfast and head up to northwest Rwanda for a +2hours drive to Volcanoes National Park which is the home of mountain gorillas.
On the drive from Kigali heading to the park, you'll have a chance to enjoy the rolling hills, landscapes, and plantations of different crops that cover the hills with beautiful terraces.
At exactly, 7:30 am is the move to the park office at Kinigi village where you'll get your gorilla family allocation and briefing from a local guide about rules and regulations about how to behave when you meet gorillas. After that, your driver-guide will drive you to the start place. You'll start the hike from there up the gorilla family that you will be given to visit then take as many photos as you need. Then, you'll go back to your driver-guide who will drive you back to Kigali to drop you off at the airport or hotel.
