Our safari begins early. At 3:00 am, you will be picked up at your hotel in Kigali and transported to the misty jungles of Bwindi or Mgahiga National Park. Here, expert guides will lead you through dense foliage, winding trails, and enchanting landscapes, all while sharing insights about the ecosystem and its captivating residents. As you trek through the forest, the anticipation builds with every step, and soon you'll find yourself in the presence of these gentle giants. Observing mountain gorillas in the wild is a humbling and awe-inspiring experience. You'll find yourself mere meters away, watching them play, groom, and showcase their innate social behaviors. The beauty and tranquility of these creatures are something that words cannot fully capture. The trekking will be a 2-5 hour exercise. Upon sighting the gorillas, you will spend one hour with them. You'll return for lunch and later drive back to Kigali.
