Resplan
Tidig uppvaknande och kör till vulkaner, ta ca 3 timmar och utforska ett land med tusen kullar genom att köra in i majestätiska kullar i norra provinsen och bege dig till parken som kännetecknas av öppna gräsmarker, bambuskogar och träsk. Vulkanernas nationalpark sträckte sig en gång ända till delar av Virunga nationalpark i DR Kongo. Parken ligger i en av Afrikas mest bergiga zoner inklusive fem vulkaner - Karisimbi, Sabinyo, Bisoke, Muhavura och Gahinga. Mount Karisimbi är det högsta av dem alla på 4 507 meter. Volcanoes National Park gränsar till Virunga National Park i DR Kongo, Mgahinga National Park i Uganda och Bwindi Impenetrable Forest när det var ett stort skyddat område känt som Volcanoes Ecosystem. Det finns cirka 360 bergsgorillor kvar i hela världen idag, vilket ger dig en möjlighet för dig att se hälften av dessa kvarvarande gorillor på ett och samma ställe.
Klockan 04:30 kommer vår safariförares guide att hämta dig och köra iväg till parken. Det är en 2 och en halv timme lång bilresa för att komma till Volcanoes National Park i Ruhengeri, som är en livsmiljö för de utrotningshotade bergsgorillorna. Exakt klockan 7.30 flyttar vi till parkens högkvarter i Kinigi Village där du informeras av rangern om reglerna och reglerna för gorillaspårning innan du ger dig av till djungeln. Vandringen varar normalt mellan 2 och 5 timmar beroende på var gorillafamiljen befinner sig och max åtta besökare är tillåtna per gorillafamilj. När du väl når gorillorna får du stanna i en timme för att se dem. Minimiåldern för gorillavandring i Rwanda är 15 år.

My experience was seamless from the coordination of my pick up and drop off, to the actual excursion! Hands down one of the best experiences of my life! Christian was extremely helpful and welcoming throughout our entire trip, it would not have been the same without him. Seeing the gorillas after the trekking through the thick brush, was absolutely breathtaking! I will definitely be recommending this trip to all my friends and family!
Gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park was, without question, the highlight of my trip to Rwanda and one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had. Seeing mountain gorillas in their natural habitat is something that is impossible to fully describe—you simply have to experience it for yourself. From the very early pickup in Kigali to the trek itself, everything was exceptionally well organized. The scenery throughout the journey was breathtaking, and spending time with the gorilla family deep in the forest was truly unforgettable. Watching them interact with one another from just a short distance away was both humbling and awe-inspiring. A special thank you goes to my guide, Christian, who made the entire day even better. He was knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about sharing Rwanda’s wildlife and culture. He ensured that everything ran smoothly and helped make the experience stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. If you are visiting Rwanda and wondering whether gorilla trekking is worth it, the answer is absolutely yes. It is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that I will remember forever.
I was originally in Tanzania for a safari but decided to add the gorilla trek at the end of my trip because the flight was too long to fly to Africa from California again at my age. I booked through Viator. From the beginning, communication with Universal Adventures was positive. They were prompt to answer any questions. And a few days before the excursion, they sent me my driver's name and WhatsApp number. His name is Christian.We communicated through WhatsApp, and he was very prompt to reply back. He was early to pick me up at 4:30am. I had another person in the car. The car was clean. Its a long drive to the meeting place. We stopped for breakfast pastries at a local shop( they take credit cards and had a clean breakfast. We then drove to the meeting place where we met up with our group. There they had hot drinks like coffees, lattes, teas, etc. We then had to drive to the beginning of the mountain. It was a long drive as the roads are not paved. My group was assigned the Isimbi gorilla family and our guide was Jolie. My porter was Adolf. I was the least active one in the group but the crew never made me feel bad. After what I thought was a 4 hr hike (it was really 1 hr and 26 minutes) we found our gorilla family. We had plenty of time to take pictures with them. After we were done, Christian took us to a rooftop restaurant. The food was delicious! I recommend this excursion 100%. The company is awesome and very professional.
Easy ride, the trip was one in a life time experience. The driver (Christian) was very nice and kind and made the trip smooth! Everything was great.
Amazing experience seeing the gorillas. Dodos picked me up in Kigali and was very helpful through the whole process. He even had cold drinks when I finished the gorilla trekking. Highly recommend!
Me and my partner have always dreamed of doing gorilla trekking so when Christian helped this come to life it was surreal! As tourists we felt incredibly safe and welcomed with Christian he was super knowledgable and happy to share lots of description and reasoning with all our questions to help us learn and understand the culture. We also did a cultural village visit, Golden Monkey Trek, Diane Fossey Museum and women’s centre. All suggested and planned with Christian from Universal Ventures Rawanda. Any requests we had were never too much for Christian he was always happy to help. I would 110% recommend Christian to all my friends and family who I know want to come to Rawanda. Thankyou for making our dreams come true!
Kim was my guide for my experience with the gorillas. He made the day so comfortable. Everything was perfect! We also had many conversations about everything. I definitely recommend traveling with him!!
My gorilla trekking experience in Rwanda was absolutely incredible. We found the gorillas within about an hour of hiking, and seeing them up close was unforgettable. The baby gorillas were especially playful and entertaining to watch, constantly moving around and interacting with each other. In contrast, the silverback was calm, quiet, and completely self-focused — somehow both powerful and peaceful at the same time. The gorillas were not scary at all, and we never felt threatened during the experience. The guides were fantastic: experienced, knowledgeable, and very entertaining throughout the trek. One of our guides even shared stories about crossing paths with Dian Fossey, which made the experience feel even more special and connected to Rwanda’s conservation history. One important tip: make sure to secure your trekking permit well in advance, as spots are limited and can sell out quickly. A truly once-in-a-lifetime experience that I would highly recommend.
We chose the long route, but it was worth it. We were amazed; the guides were great, and the drive from Kigali was not too long with the agency driver, NEZA, who was truly excellent from start to finish. The agency manager was a great help; he was super and available, assisting us with all the procedures.
Seeing gorillas in their natural habitat was incredible! A truly serene experience. The tour was well planned and could not have been more perfect. The entire team guided with professionalism and love. My porter, Jacqueline, was wonderful and took great care of me. My personal guide/driver, Kim, was a delight! I learned much about Rwanda from him on the drive. I was surprised he greeted me with champagne toast! The day could not have been better.
