Day 1: Kigali, Volcanoes National Park Gorilla Trekking, Return to Kigali
Your luxury safari begins with an early morning pick up from your hotel or Kigali International Airport before setting off on a comfortable drive through Rwanda’s beautiful countryside towards Volcanoes National Park. As you travel, you will enjoy spectacular rolling hills, picturesque villages and terraced farmland that have earned Rwanda the name “The Land of a Thousand Hills”. Upon arrival at the park headquarters, you will receive a comprehensive briefing from experienced park rangers before being allocated to a gorilla family. Your unforgettable trek then begins through dense bamboo forests and montane vegetation as expert guides lead you in search of the magnificent mountain gorillas. Once you locate the gorilla family, you will spend a magical hour observing their fascinating behaviours, watching them feed, interact and care for their young in their natural environment. After this once in a lifetime wildlife encounter, you will return to the lodge for a delicious lunch before driving back to Kigali, where your luxury Rwanda gorilla trekking experience concludes with a drop off at your preferred location.
