5 Days Discover Rwanda Adventure With Gorilla Trekking
Discover Rwanda with gorilla trekking and Akagera safari
Overview
Transfer to Akagera National Park: then go for a boat ride in the afternoon on Lake Ihema to see crocodiles.
Gorilla trekking is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that allows you to see these amazing creatures in their natural habitat. Rwanda is home to one of the largest populations of gorillas in the world, and gorilla trekking is one of the most popular activities in the country.
The trek to see the gorillas can be challenging, but it is worth it to see these magnificent animals up close. You will spend about an hour with the gorillas, observing them as they go about their day. You will learn about their behavior and their conservation status.
Gorilla trekking is a great way to support conservation efforts. The money you pay for a permit goes towards protecting the gorillas and their habitat.
If you are looking for an unforgettable experience, gorilla trekking in Rwanda is the perfect choice for you.
