Gorilla Trekking From Rwanda.
There are more than 950 mountain gorillas in the world, and they live in the Virunga Conservation Area and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, which are shared by Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
To get the best value and experience for their money, tourists have trailed mountain gorillas in two national parks in Uganda and Congo.
Because of the national park’s accessibility and distance, you can experience gorillas in the areas between the two parks, which have gorilla permit facilities.
Accessibility & Distance Out of the two national parks
Given Rwanda’s tiny size, gorilla trekking is conducted there in Volcanoes National Park, which is quick and easy to get to. From the international airport, it takes three hours.
Although pre-tracking is limited in Rwanda due to the three-hour trip to Volcanoes National Park, gorilla trekking is nevertheless an incredible experience there.
In Volcanoes National Park, gorilla trekking offers the best possibility of seeing gorillas the same day you arrive without becoming tired.
In Rwanda, a permit for gorilla trekking costs $1500 USD. Despite the high cost of the permit, visitors are given a cup of tea at the park headquarters prior to the trek, which is unique from other park headquarters where visitors can see the mountain gorillas and enjoy traditional dances.
Only ten gorilla families are available for trekking in Rwanda each day, and each family may only be accompanied by eight people. To obtain a gorilla permit, one must apply three months in advance.
Accommodations
There are excellent lodging options in Rwanda, such as the Gorilla Mountain View, Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge, and Virunga Lodges, all of which are close to the Volcanoes National Park.
The bamboo forest at Volcanoes National Park lets sunlight in, making it simple to capture gorillas.
The Batwa settlements in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park are home to people who provide the best experiences in Volcano National Park.
Overall, Rwanda and Uganda offer some of the best gorilla trekking experiences that should not be missed. The terrains vary, and the decision is influenced by factors like income, desire, and the time of other attractions. The uniqueness of the Volcanoes Mountains varies according to the degree of comparison.
