Itinerario
EspañolUn traslado comienza y termina en Kigali ITINERARIO SIMPLE: Debe levantarse temprano y pedir el desayuno mientras espera que el conductor lo recoja. El conductor y guía de Afri Safaris lo llevará a la sede de RDB en Kinigi para una sesión informativa a las 7:00 a. m. Esta sesión informativa es muy importante y es donde conocerá a otros turistas y guardabosques que lo guiarán al bosque. La sesión informativa cubre muchos temas, pero el más importante es cómo comportarse cerca de los gorilas, qué esperar y qué llevar consigo mientras rastrea a los gorilas. Se le asignará una familia de gorilas teniendo en cuenta su estado físico general y su edad. Esto se debe a que algunos de los grupos de gorilas se encuentran más profundamente en el bosque, por lo que requieren más horas de caminata. Hay porteadores disponibles para ayudarlo con el equipaje adicional. Los guardabosques lo llevarán al bosque para rastrear a los primates. La caminata dura entre 2 y 6 horas. Después de una hora de observar a los gorilas de montaña, nuestro guía lo estará esperando en el punto de partida.
Después de la caminata para ver gorilas, lo trasladarán al pueblo cultural de Iby'iwacu. El pueblo cultural de Iby'iwacu es un pueblo de ex cazadores furtivos, aquellos que anteriormente robaban gorilas debido a la pobreza, ahora dejaron de cazar furtivamente. El pueblo cultural de Iby'iwacu es una de las principales atracciones culturales de Ruanda. El pueblo combina todas las tradiciones culturales, la gente y la historia conocidas de Ruanda en un solo lugar para mostrar y vivir una experiencia personal. Los visitantes internacionales pueden ver cómo era la vida en un entorno típico de pueblo africano: el estilo de vida, las casas, los bailes tradicionales, el código de vestimenta, la comida, las hierbas y cómo se organizaban generalmente los antiguos reinos. Los turistas tienen la oportunidad de aprender antiguas habilidades de caza, intentar tejer cestas/esteras, carpintería. Esta experiencia única ha ganado los corazones de muchos visitantes que desean disfrutar de la cultura de la comunidad nativa de Ruanda después de ver gorilas. El pueblo ofrece la oportunidad de comprar artesanía local, regalos y recuerdos para mostrar a los amigos en casa.
El Campus Ellen DeGeneres del Fondo de Gorilas Dian Fossey en Ruanda es un lugar fantástico para aquellos interesados en la conservación de la vida silvestre, los gorilas y el legado de Dian Fossey. Es un centro de educación, investigación y esfuerzos de conservación, particularmente centrado en los gorilas de montaña en peligro de extinción en la región del Parque Nacional de los Volcanes. 1. Aprender sobre los gorilas y la conservación El campus tiene exhibiciones educativas que proporcionan información en profundidad sobre el comportamiento de los gorilas, la historia del trabajo de Dian Fossey y los esfuerzos de conservación actuales para proteger a los gorilas de montaña.

Our one-day gorilla trekking experience in Rwanda was truly the highlight of our trip! The hike was definitely challenging, with steep and muddy trails, but every step was worth it. We were incredibly lucky to visit the Susa gorilla family, and seeing these magnificent animals in their natural habitat was an unforgettable experience. Watching them interact so closely, especially the silverback calmly leading the family, was both exciting and humbling. It was a moment we'll never forget. A huge thank you to our guide, Elysee, who took great care of us throughout the day. He was friendly, professional, and made sure everything went smoothly from the early morning pickup to the drive back. His encouragement and thoughtful arrangements made the long day much more enjoyable. If you're visiting Rwanda, don't miss this incredible adventure. It's physically demanding, but the reward of meeting the mountain gorillas is beyond words. Highly recommended!

Outstanding on every level, the gorilla trek at Volcanoes National Park with AfriSafari is an excellent value. We enjoyed a private ride in a comfortable Toyota 4x4 with WiFi connectivity, recharge unit, refreshments. But the best part is the staff and the people who provided support, from planning, to transportation and the park rangers, trackers, spotters, and porters. Each one was friendly, attentive, helpful and knowledgeable. Our personal guide and driver Elysée offered insights along the way and by the end of the roughly 12 hour expedition, after great conversation and s few laughs, we can only say “urakoze cyane”thank you very very much. The field tracker and conservationist John also deserves kudos for his professionalism and wit, an excellent teacher and guide who provided us the tools (and the proper pronunciation) to communicate with our closest evolutionary cousins. The porters were patient and always there, as members of our small group (7) needed assistance with boots stuck in the mud, detached soles and other minor mishaps. This group is top notch and then there is the extraordinary encounter with the gorillas: we saw a newborn and several mothers with their infants and children as well as silverback leader of his group. We had a delicious hot lunch at an excellent local restaurant on the return, enjoying our meal as a team cleaned our boots. Needless to say we very highly recommend the tour and congratulate the organizers for jobs well done!

We did the gorilla trekking and had an amazing time. We really appreciated the easy and clear communication with Afrisafari before, during and after the trekking. Our guide Elyse was very kind and made us feel safe and taken good care of. There was a problem with the car on the way back, but this was solved fast and both Elyse and the company handled the situation very well. I highly recommend Afrisafari, and Elyse!

Gorilla trekking adventure with the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund was beyond amazing! From the early morning pickup and scenic drive from Kigali to Volcanoes National Park, to the unforgettable hike through the forest and coming face to face with a gorilla family, every moment felt surreal. The guides were deeply committed to conservation, and ensured a safe, enjoyable experience. Learning about Dian Fossey's legacy added depth and meaning to the journey. Truly a once in a lifetime experience not to be missed!

From the early-morning pickup to the ride back to Kigali, it was one of the best - if also wonderfully exhausting - days of my life! Truly a bucket-list activity to see the gorillas, and Afri Safaris made it better than I could have hoped. I was on my own, but not at all lonely. My driver was engaging and lovely to chat with. Their attention to my comfort and enjoyment was top of mind without being overbearing. Their partners in the tour were equally focused on making it a great experience. And seeing the gorillas was absolutely breath taking. Thank you for an unforgettable day!
