Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park is one of the most special wildlife encounters in the world.
Hike through the mist-covered bamboo rainforest and gaze deeply into the soulful brown eyes of endangered mountain gorillas—the largest-living primate on the planet.
In addition to gorilla trekking, spend a morning observing Rwanda's golden monkeys. Participate in a cooking class at an inspiring organization based in Kigali, embark on a guided city walk, learn about the traditional process of yarn-making, and more.
Gorilla tourism brings significant income annually to communities in Rwanda. Through responsibly planned visits, local people find a strong incentive to protect these animals and their habitats. It’s a win-win situation for both people and wildlife.
