Detailed 3-Day Rwanda Gorilla Tour Itinerary
Day 1: Transfer to Volcanoes National Park Rwanda
Upon arrival, you will be warmly greeted by our company guide who will pick you up and take you to the nearest restaurant for a cup of coffee and a brief overview of the trip.
Depending on your arrival time, undertake a Kigali city tour and visit the Gisozi Genocide Memorial Museum, where you will learn more about Rwanda’s genocide history. Visit the craft market, shopping malls, monuments, and more.
Afterward, transfer northwards to Volcanoes National Park and check in at your lodge where you will have dinner and an overnight stay.
Day 2: Gorilla Trekking and Gorilla Guardians Village Visit
After your morning breakfast, head to the park headquarters for a briefing and then embark on an adventurous trek to search for the endangered giants of the jungle, the mountain gorillas.
Volcanoes National Park is home to over 250 mountain gorillas, providing up to a 95% chance for travelers to encounter these humble primates of the forest.
The walk through the thick jungles on the foothills of the Virunga ranges in search of the gorillas is most rewarding when you finally encounter these great apes. Spend a full hour with them and learn more about their behaviors and way of life.
After lunch, visit the famous Iby’Iwacu Cultural Village that brings together all three ethnic groups of Rwanda in one place. Engage in the traditional dances performed here. A taste of the local cuisine is guaranteed, except for those who prefer not to.
Day 3: Kigali City Tour and Departure
After breakfast, begin your road transfer back to Kigali. Start a city tour in Kigali. This trip will expose you to Kigali Genocide Memorial Site, craft markets, monuments, shopping malls, and other amazing attractions in Kigali town.
