Detailed Itinerary
Day 1 – Pick up from a Hotel in Kigali and Transfer to Bwindi Forest
Begin your expedition with a morning breakfast at your hotel in Kigali. Our experienced guide will then pick you up for a brief city tour in Kigali before heading to the border for customs clearance. Following this, venture towards Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, a mere 5-hour drive from the Rwandan capital, Kigali.

After a delicious morning breakfast, our guide will escort you to the park office for a comprehensive gorilla briefing by the Uganda Wildlife Rangers. Subsequently, you will be divided into gorilla family units. Accompanied by your guide and porters, embark on an exhilarating trek through the lush forest, lasting between 2 to 8 hours, depending on the chosen gorilla family. Upon completion, return to the lodge for a well-deserved relaxation.
Day 3 – Drive to Lake Bunyonyi for Boat Cruise and Relaxation
Enjoy a leisurely morning before driving to the picturesque Lake Bunyonyi. Check-in and savor a delightful lunch at the lodge. Following a period of relaxation, indulge in an evening sundowner boat cruise on Lake Bunyonyi, complete with refreshing drinks and delectable snacks.
