Gorilla Trekking

Gorilla trekking in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park or Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is Africa's most exclusive wildlife encounter. Small groups of 8 trek through montane rainforest with trackers to spend one hour with a habituated gorilla family. Permit costs are $1,500 in Rwanda and $800 in Uganda. Sighting rates are near 100%, and the emotional impact of sitting meters from a silverback is consistently rated as a life-changing experience.
