OVERVIEW

Rwanda Gorilla trekking safari is the ultimate adventure experience in Rwanda. Many people plan for years to be able to watch mountain gorillas in their natural habitats. Rwanda’s volcanoes national park is among the four parks that mountain gorillas are currently inhabiting. This 2 days tour is especially suitable for people who are flying into Kigali to attend a conference or business. This gorilla safari will bring you close to these massive but gentle animals that live in a communal family led by the dominant silverback. In some gorilla groups, you will find more than one silverback in which case it implies the other silver-backs had to submit to his leadership or break away and start their own families.

“I had an incredible experience with Joppy Tours on the Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro itinerary. From the mesmerizing flamingos of Lake Manyara to the iconic Great Wildebeest Migration in Serengeti and the breathtaking wildlife encounters in Ngorongoro Crater, every moment was unforgettable. The seamless logistics, knowledgeable guides, and exceptional accommodations made this journey truly exceptional. I highly recommend Joppy Tours for an extraordinary safari adventure in Tanzania..”
