Highlights
  • Rwanda Travel - The One-day gorilla trekking trip in Rwanda is best done when a visitor is already in Rwanda since it requires very early pick up and late drop off.
    Set off at 4:30 am, for a 2 hours picturesque drive to Volcanoes national park found in Musanze province, habitat to endangered mountain gorillas.

On arrival, enjoy your breakfast and proceed to the park headquarters at Kinigi for the briefing by the park warden.
At 8:30 am the tour guide will transfer you to the starting point of the gorilla trek.
The gorilla groups are allocated to the guests at random at the park headquarters. However, our experienced guides have over time built a strong relationship with the park wardens. They normally talk to them before time and express the clients’ interests in specific gorilla groups. They normally get a positive response over this.
On return, your driver will transfer you back to Kigali for drop off at your hotel or at the airport for a scheduled flight back home.

This is a truly magnificent wildlife experience! - Just returned from one day overnight Gorilla trek in Volcano Mountains Rwanda! It is truly amazing. It is expensive but please know that the money goes into protecting these amazing animals and to increase their habitat which sadly, is decreasing! I highly suggest using Uber Luxe safari. They are true professionals and you will not be disappointed! It really is a trip of a lifetime and if you will not regret it!

Great Trip - thanks! - The trip started at 4:30 am in Kigali. The driver was very kind and skilled. Even though we had a small incident with a flat tire, he managed to fix it quickly and help me make it on time to the park. There is no breakfast so it's important to make sure you are prepared for this. Lunch was amazing!
