Day 2: Mountain Gorillas Tracking – Lake Kivu

As the first light of dawn breaks through the curtain of mist clinging to the summits of Karisimbi, Bisoke,Sabyniyo,Gahinga and Muhubura, we make our way into the Parc National des Volcans. Tracking the gorillas through the unique vegetation can take several hours of challenging walking in wet and muddy conditions. To see a gorilla, the trek will have been worth the hardship. After lunch at your hotel, continue towards Gisenyi, a nice small town, located on the north shore of Lake Kivu.

Approx 100km – 2 hrs drive

Day 3: Lake Kivu – Kigali – Departure

Enjoy during the early morning hours, the peaceful atmosphere of the calm and pristine waters of Lake Kivu. Return to Kigali. Lunch and Airport transfer.
