3 Days Rwanda Gorilla Trekking Safari

Overview

The Africa Gorilla they call it but down here in East Africa we know it as the gentle giant, the mountain gorilla. The 3 Days Rwanda Gorilla Trekking Safari takes you deep into the Eastern African mountain forest to meet the last of the endangered mountain gorillas. This experience is tough for the faint-hearted but the rewards are something you’ll talk about for the rest of your life.

You’ll hail to track the mountain gorillas the next day and also experience the African jungle scenes away from modern civilization.
