Review of Kigali gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, including transport, permits, timing, trek demands, value, and practical tips.

“I had the tremendous experience with Unique Africa Venture and John, my driver guide. Even though it was peak season and permit was sold out at the official website, they somehow engaged with the authority and find a spot for me. And tour itself was very special. I was able to see many gorillas very clearly even though it was in the mountain. I’d recommend anyone considering and suffering to find a spot for gorilla tracking to go with this company”
