Today will be your day of going for the memorable lifetime adventure of tracking the gorillas. You will wake up as early as 6:00 am to a sumptuous breakfast and then transfer to the park headquarters for an insightful briefing from the park rangers before heading for the gorilla trekking adventure. The hike in search for the gorillas begins at 8:00 am and lasts between 1-6 hours before eventually meeting the gorillas. This largely depends on the previous movements of the gorillas and the particular family allocated at the time of briefing.
Visitors are entitled to spend one full hour with the gorillas and then descend back to the lodge. In the afternoon, you may optionally choose to go for a cultural performance or a nature walk through the hilly plains of the Ruhengeri area or simply choose to start your journey back Kigali having your packed lunch enroute. Depending on your departure flight schedule, your guide will either drop you off at the airport or at your residential place in Kigali.

Best Time to Visit Rwanda
The best time for Rwanda gorilla trekking and other wildlife viewing tours is during the Dry seasons from June to August and December to February. Primate walks in the forest are a big part of any safari in Rwanda. The habitat of rainforests is, by default, very wet, and one can’t avoid rain completely.
