Rwanda Gorilla & Jungle Expedition

Rwanda Gorilla & Jungle Expedition

Volcanoes National Park & Beyond, Rwanda

Follow in Dian Fossey's footsteps through misty volcanic slopes to encounter some of Earth's last 1,000 mountain gorillas.

This expedition traverses Rwanda's remarkable diversity—from the hills of Kigali to ancient rainforests and open savannah. The centerpiece is an intimate hour with a habituated gorilla family in Volcanoes National Park, where only eight visitors per group ensure a deeply personal encounter. Trek Nyungwe's canopy trails for chimpanzee sightings, unwind beside Lake Kivu, and finish with traditional safari drives in Akagera. Limited permits and strict group sizes make gorilla trekking feel more like being invited into their home than a tourist activity.
