Volcanoes National Park Rwanda / Parc National Des Volcans (PNV): Spanning on a 160 sqkm area in the northern part of Ruanda, Volcanoes national park is part of the great Virunga volcano conservation region spanning to cover Virunga national park Congo and Mgahinga national park Uganda. It was initially a small area around Karisimbi, Mikeno and Visoke volcanoes which was gazetted to protect the Mountain gorillas which were facing the threat of extinction as a result of poaching.
Kigali is the capital city of Rwanda, roughly in the centre of the country. It sprawls across numerous hills, ridges and valleys, and has a vibrant restaurant and nightlife scene. The Kigali Genocide Memorial documents the 1994 mass killings in Rwanda, associated with the country’s civil war. The city’s Caplaki Crafts Village has stalls selling traditional handicrafts, including woodcarvings and woven baskets.

After your morning breakfast you will be assisted with check out and settlement of extras. You will then proceed with your driver guide on a tour of Kigali city that includes The Kigali Genocide Memorial Center and Inema arts center. The Genocide Memorial centre at Gisozi, It is where the victims of Tutsi Genocide are buried from the year 2000.

After your early morning breakfast you will transfer to the park headquarters in time for Gorilla trekking briefing. We will then transfer you to the starting point of your guided walk. Here, your amazing adventure begins. Some gorilla families can be more elusive, and tracking can take a full day, especially if it is wet and muddy. Later in the evening if time allows you will visit the Ibyi Iwacu village for a Rwandese cultural experience. Ibyi Iwacu is changing the traditional perception of what constitutes tourism by turning fate into fame through sharing various aspects of rural cultures and livelihoods into tourist attractions and creating income-generating activities for rural poor people that have reformed from living on bush meat and poaching for generations. Dinner and overnight at Mountain Gorilla View Lodge (HB).
After an early morning breakfast and retrieve the Kinigi park offices for morning briefing on the golden monkey tracking code of conduct. Unlike mountain gorillas, golden monkeys exist in large families and can be seen jumping from one tree branch to another; playing and looking for food.
