Following the briefing, you will be allocated a gorilla family to visit. Experience an extraordinary gorilla trekking expedition in the deep forest, led by seasoned rangers, with a potential duration of a full day. We embark on a journey through lush rainforest and slopes covered in bamboo, escorted by a park ranger, porters, and other trackers, with the purpose of locating a mountain gorilla family.

The act of walking can occasionally be difficult and lengthy, but when catching sight of the amazing silver-back, any inconveniences will immediately fade from memory. Upon sighting, guests will be directed to a distance of 6 meters from the mountain gorillas. They will get the opportunity to sit near the gorillas for a whole hour, observing their habits, staring into their large wide eyes, and capturing images to create a lasting and meaningful experience.

Predicting the duration of your trip might be challenging; a gorilla tour can last anywhere from 2 to 8 hours. Anticipate traversing lengthy distances in challenging terrain that is both steep and slippery, often accompanied by rain, before coming across any gorillas. It is advisable to maintain a high level of physical fitness. Due to conservation efforts, the duration of gorilla encounters is restricted to a maximum of one hour. A ranger will provide you with instructions on proper conduct when interacting with the gorillas.

Upon completion of the gorilla safari tour, you will return to the park headquarters and get gorilla trekking certificates as recognition for your involvement in gorilla trekking activities. The revenues generated from these activities are utilized for gorilla conservation and community support.
