Mountain Gorillas of Rwanda

A tour of the Rwanda genocide museum in the morning will enable you to really understand the country and its history before the stunning three hour drive to Sambora Kinigi, in the foothills of Volcanoes National Park. Arriving in time for a late lunch, relaxed afternoon and a pre trek briefing.

You'll begin your time in Volcanoes National Park with a golden monkey trek. This gives everyone the chance to practice their forest photography before the headline act - the mountain gorillas - on the following day.

Over the next four days you will enjoy four separate gorilla treks - visiting four different families in the process. Each day will vary from the last and you'll be back in camp for a late lunch and afternoon editing session (or spa treatment!)

Each day starts at the park headquarters with a Rwanda coffee and safety briefing at 7am. From here we will drive to the start of the trekking point and begin the adventure. It can take anything from 30 minutes to three hours to reach the gorillas - depending on the family we are seeing - and we then get one hour with these amazing animals.

Sadly all good things come to an end and on the 14th the group leave the lodge after an early breakfast to begin the journey back to Kigali and flights home.
