Experiencing gorillas in their natural environment is an unforgettable and potentially life-changing opportunity! These encounters, where gorillas are observed in their daily routines, are meticulously organized. Expert trackers and guides lead small groups of tourists up bamboo-covered slopes, allowing them to spend an awe-inspiring hour just a few feet from these gentle giants. Visitors convene at the Volcanoes National Park headquarters in Kinigi at 7 am, where they are assigned a gorilla family group based on their fitness levels and briefed on the protocols and rules for visiting the gorillas. The hikes to the gorillas’ locations can range from 30 minutes to over four hours, reaching altitudes between 2,500m and 4,000m. Porters are available to carry backpacks and cameras and to assist along the way. The minimum age for gorilla trekking is 15 years. This is truly a bucket list experience for anyone visiting Rwanda!
