3 DAYS CONGO GORILLA TRACKING SAFARI FROM RWANDA

Congo Gorilla Tour overview

This three days gorilla tour will start in Kigali Rwanda, where you will transfer to Virunga National park in Democratic republic of Congo via Uganda’s boarder.  The park has five families of gorillas with three groups most tracked. Below is the itinerary.


DAY 1: Transfer from Kigali to Kisoro boarder town in Uganda
You will be picked by the driver/guide and transfer to Kisoro on Uganda boarder,  a journey that will take you through a scenic view of beautiful Rwanda’s rolling hills passing via Ruhengeri in northern part of Rwanda and continuing to Chanika boarder.  Finalize boarder arrangements and cross into Uganda.  You may have guided nature walk, visit the natural, beautiful-looking Lake Mutanda, surrounded by the volcanoes, take a walk on the shores.  Dinner and overnight stay at Travellers Rest Hotel.

 

DAY 2: Gorilla tracking in Virunga National Park.
Transfer to the Bunagana boarder with Congo, and cross over, then from there continue to the Park for the memorable gorilla tracking adventure in the forest. In the course of searching for the Mountain Gorillas, you will be exposed to excellent birding and primates such as the Golden Monkeys, Blue Monkeys, Black and White colobus monkey, and giant forest hogs among others. You will stay with these beautiful primates for one hour for observation and photography. Gorilla tracking through the forest, hills and swamps can be tough, arduous and tiring, sometimes taking up to 8 hours in the forest. But coming face to face with the great primates is well worth the effort. Return to Kisoro in Uganda.  Dinner and overnight at Travellers Rest Hotel.
