Experience the trip of a lifetime with a Chimpanzee & Gorilla Safari in Rwanda
Thanks to conservation efforts the population of mountain gorillas in Rwanda has increased some 20% in the past decade.
This is crucial because the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda are one of only two mountain gorilla habitats in the entire world (the other one being the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda).
These magnificent animals can only be found at elevations of between 8,000 and 13,000 feet. Locating and viewing them in a responsible manner requires the services of expert guides like those at Africa Flash MCTours.
Our guided gorilla safari tours in Rwanda are some of our most popular as they take adventurers up the sides of ancient volcanoes in the northeast of the country, on the border with Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
These tours bring you into contact with the endangered mountain gorilla in their natural habitat. You are escorted through ancient forests untouched by development up to the gorilla’s home where you will have a rare opportunity to observe and appreciate these amazing primates in all their glory.
This is a 5-day tour designed specifically to bring you into contact with the rare mountain gorilla. You will start your adventure at Kigali International Airport in Rwanda where you will be picked up by our driver/guide.
From there you will enjoy an enchanting 4 hour drive through Virunga volcanoes region of Rwanda and the highlands of Uganda’s Kigezi District, ultimately arriving at the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda.
From the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, you will journey back to Rwanda and Volcanoes National Park. There you will trek on foot to the only other known habitat of the mountain gorilla, on the slopes of Mt Sabyinyo. After spending time observing the gorilla community you will return to the lodge for dinner and a night of reminiscing about your incredible experience before returning to Kigali International Airport the next day.
This comprehensive gorilla safari in Rwanda covers both mountain gorilla habitats: Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda and Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda.
The tour also includes savannah and boat safaris in Queen Elizabeth National Park, offering sightings of elephants, buffalo, lions, zebras, and hippos. Additionally, a visit to Lake Bunyonyi, known as “Uganda’s Paradise,” allows for bird watching and relaxation before heading back to Kampala for departure.
Experience the excitement of Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda, where you can observe mountain gorillas in their pristine habitat. This unforgettable adventure also provides opportunities to encounter chimpanzees and other diverse wildlife, deepening your connection with the natural world
