Murakoze cyane!

Truly a once in a lifetime experience! Made all the more special by Bosco, our friend and guide on the trip. Everything from the beautiful drive up to the mountains to sorting out our permits at the park gate to getting us a really fun group to do the trek with and see the famed Susa Gorilla family, Bosco silently pulled the strings. ASANTE SANA!

Gorillas Trekking

Expectations were exceeded! Tour guides are so well prepared to share safety instructions and Gorillas info, my tour guide/driver, John, he provided me with some background of the Gorillas and had a good talk during the trip, he was so nice and friendly and as well provided some suggestions and tips to keep spending a good time in Rwanda.

Once in a Life time Experience!

My guide, John, was amazing. I am a female traveling solo, and everything felt safe and organized. He was knowledgeable about the area, the park’s operations, and the local culture. The entire process was seamless. John picked me up at my hotel in Kigali at around 4:30 a.m. We arrived at the park about two hours later. The tracking started early in the morning after a brief check-in process. (there's free coffee offered by Question Coffee!) The weather in the rainforest can be a little unpredictable, so make sure you bring waterproof clothing (or a full-body poncho) and a good pair of hiking shoes that provide enough traction for the landscape. It’s not like the designated trails I’m used to seeing, and the sudden rain didn’t make the walk any easier. But in the end, it’s so worth it - seeing silverback gorillas in their wild habitat.
