3 DAYS BWINDI NATIONAL PARK – GORILLA TREKKING

Day 1: ARRIVAL TO KIGALI
Arrive at the Kigali International Airport meet and greet your guide who will give you a
brief about the trip as well as information about Rwanda before you transfer to the Hotel.
Overnight at Mille Collines Hotel

Day 2: KIGALI CITY EXPLORATION AND TRANSFER TO BWINDI NATIONAL PARK
After breakfast transfer to Kigali and start the historical-minded exploration of Kigali city
with visits to landmarks from colonial, post-independence, genocide and post-genocide
times i.e. Kigali Genocide memorial site where over 259,000 genocide victims were put to
rest in mass graves, Dr. Richard Kandt Museum who was the first Germany explorer to
settle in Kigali, Belgian camp where they killed the 10 Belgian UN soldiers who were
protecting the moderate prime minister before the start of genocide.
Transfer to Bwindi National Park. Overnight at Rushaga Gorilla Camp

Day 3: GORILLA TREKKING & TRANSFER BACK TO KIGALI
After breakfast we transfer to the park, completing our park formalities
then embark on a once in a lifetime experience of tracking mountain
gorillas.
Once you spot them you are allowed to spend an hour watching your
closest long lost cousin. This is perhaps one of the most breathtaking
wildlife experiences on earth!!! You get so close to these awesome giant
primates. You stare at each other blankly not knowing who to break the
long silence first. Tracking the gorillas through the light mountain forest
on the slopes of the Virunga is a magical experience.
Be back at the base in time for lunch! Some gorilla families however are more elusive and
tracking can take a full day, especially when it is wet and muddy.
Transfer back to Kigali and to the Airport.
END OF SERVICE!
