Itinerary
Today you begin your journey by boarding your international outbound flight to Kigali.
On arrival in Kigali you will meet your private driver-guide and vehicle which will take you through the highlands to Ruhengeri, the base for gorilla trekking. You will have this afternoon to relax and recover from your journey and we recommend an early night to prepare you for tomorrow's excitement!
Today you will set off early after breakfast for the park headquarters where you will register for the gorilla trekking. Once you've been assigned a group and have had a briefing from your guide you will be driven to the trailhead where you will start the walk. Tracke...
After breakfast today you will set off to track the golden monkeys in the Volcanoes National Park. This will be a completely different but just as rewarding experience to tracking the gorillas. You will track the monkeys with a guide through the forest of the Volcanoe...
This morning you can have a leisurely breakfast before setting off with your driver for Lake Kivu. The drive takes around an hour and a half, and the rolling hills that characterise Rwanda's landscape become much more dramatic and cliff-like as you drive on. You will ...
Today is free for relaxing or exploring Lake Kivu - you can go swimming in the hotel pool, or in the lake itself, have a tour of Gisenyi town, or hire a boat to visit some of the nearby islands on the lake. You can decide on the day what you'd like to do - your driver will help you with all of your arrangements.
This morning you will depart Lake Kivu and drive back to Kigali Airport. It will take around two and a half hours, or longer if you stop a lot to take photographs, and the road takes you past the Virunga Volcanoes and Ruhengeri on the way.
Arrive home today to complete your journey.
