Bespoke Trip Extensions
Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda
The lush, green slopes of the Virunga Volcanoes rise majestically, creating a paradise that captivates every visitor. In these vibrant rainforests, filled with jungle sounds, soft mists linger as they did when Dian Fossey wrote Gorillas in the Mist. The magnificent Mountain Gorilla, which fascinated Dr. Fossey, continues to draw us into its world. This exclusive post-safari extension in Rwanda features luxurious accommodations and offers close encounters with these gentle giants, allowing travelers to connect with one of nature's most regal inhabitants.
