After an early breakfast, head to the Volcanoes National Park Headquarters for a comprehensive briefing before starting your trek. Led by expert trackers and park rangers, hike through lush bamboo forests and mist-covered slopes in search of a habituated gorilla family.

Once located, you’ll spend a magical hour observing these incredible creatures—watching the silverback protect his family, juveniles play, and mothers nurture their young. It’s a humbling and emotional experience that few ever forget.

In the afternoon, you may choose to visit the Iby’Iwacu Cultural Village to experience authentic Rwandan traditions, music, and dance (optional but recommended).
