An incredible experience - I had the chance to spend a morning up close and personal with gorillas in Volcanoes National Park, and what an experience! Passionate and exciting guides, a few meters from the gorillas... All masterfully organized by Alain, with a special mention for the adaptation because everything is last minute!
