Detailed Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival and City Tour

Arrive at Kigali Airport where our guide driver will welcome you and brief you about these 4 days of double gorilla trekking in Rwanda. Immediately head out for a tour around Kigali city.

Among other sites, you will visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial Site to pay respects to the Hutu and Tutsi people who died in the 1994 genocide, the Kigali Art Museum, Belgian War Memorial Monument, and local markets. Return to the lodge for dinner.

Day 2: Gorilla Trekking and Ibyiwacu Cultural Village

Wake up to an early breakfast then drive to the headquarters of Volcanoes National Park for a briefing about the rules followed during this incredible gorilla trekking experience. In the briefing room, you will be provided with walking sticks to help you move through the muddy trails while searching for gorillas.

Once allocated a gorilla family to trek, you will spend one hour in their presence, though you can spend the whole day in the wild searching for them. Capture photos of gorillas and observe their daily behaviors. Retreat to the lodge for lunch and in the evening, head to explore the Iby’iwacu Community.

In this community, enjoy beautiful Kinyarwanda cultural dances, interact with the locals, and taste their local foods if you wish. Return to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 3: Second Gorilla Trekking Session and Relaxation

Enjoy breakfast in the morning before trekking mountain gorillas for the second time. This day’s experience will be different as you trek a different gorilla family with different members, though their ways of life are quite similar.

You will have one hour to observe their behaviors and take photos for memories. Retreat to the lodge for lunch and relax in the evening.

Day 4: Departure

This is the last day of your 4-day double gorilla trekking in Rwanda. Have breakfast in the morning, check out from the lodge, and the guide will drop you at Kigali Airport for departure.
