Upon arrival at the airport or pick-up from your hotel, you will embark on a short city tour of Kigali, visiting key cultural and historical sites such as the Kigali Genocide Memorial, local craft markets, Kandt National Museum, and the presidential museum (time permitting).

While waiting for everyone to gather, you can enjoy traditional Rwandan dances and a hot cup of Rwandan coffee. Once divided into trekking groups, you will be guided to your allocated trailhead. The trek can vary depending on the location of the gorilla family. In the afternoon, you can rest or opt for an optional visit to Musanze caves or the twin lakes.
After an exhilarating gorilla trekking experience, you’ll spend the morning exploring the Gorilla Guardians Village, where former poachers now share their cultural heritage. This visit not only offers a taste of Rwandan culture but also supports gorilla conservation efforts by providing alternative income to local communities. Afterward, you will be transferred back to Kigali or to the airport for your departure.
