Enjoy 1 day Rwanda Gorilla experience as you have a face to face encounter with the largest apes in the high mountains of this country of a thousand hills. The amazing experience gives you chance to spend one full hour in the presence of the forest giants learning about their behaviour. Our guides will ensure to give you a mind-blowing experience on this short trip as you meet these forest gentle giants.
Detailed itinerary
You will be picked from your Hotel/lodge very early in the morning and head straight to the park offices to be joined with other guests. You will then be briefed on the guidelines for tracking the Gorillas and be divided in groups of 8 individuals and then set off in search for the habituated mountain Gorillas. The experience requires some level of fitness since it involves hiking through the thick forest in the high mountains where the Gorillas live. The trekking may take any period between one hour to half a day depending on the movement of the Gorillas and the fitness of the trekkers. You will finally meet the Gorillas in their group as they do their daily activities feeding, resting and playing. Look out for the dominant male (Silverback) leading the group and ensuring safety of every member in the gorilla group. These Gorillas have been trained to get used to the presence of humans without changing their natural behaviour. After a whole hour in the presence of the Gorillas, you will be led back to the starting point to meet your guide where left them. Drive off to the lodge/Hotel for lunch and continue to the airport for your flight.
