Rwanda is one of the countries that is known to be high-end, and it is known for the great mountain gorillas and primate safaris, especially the chimpanzees. Rwanda’s high-end gorilla trekking safaris are conducted in Volcanoes National Park, while high-end primate safaris can be done in Nyungwe Forest National Park.

Visitors who are interested in chimpanzees, mountain gorillas, and golden monkeys can find these primates in the above-mentioned parks, although it has been proven that Gishwatai-Mukura National Park also features some of the chimpanzees. The chimpanzees are intelligent primates, and they keep moving from day to day in search of fresh foods. They are known for building fresh nests on a daily basis.

It is absolutely amazing to see the gorillas in Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda. These creatures stay in the wild, and they perform different rituals like calling each other. They have a sound they make, especially when they lose each other in the forest.

Rwanda gorilla and primate high-end trips will take you into the forests in search of the mountain gorillas, and here you will start the tracking process early in the morning with a briefing from the rangers and thereafter drive into the forest to search for the endemic mountain gorillas. Tracking the mountain gorillas can last for several hours, depending on where the gorilla family that you have identified is found.

A certain level of fitness is also required to have a successful gorilla and primate safari in Rwanda since the areas where these primates do stay are rocky, muddy, and steep while navigating through dense vegetation. For us here, we offer gorilla permits for sale, and we book them for the Rwanda Development Board.

Once you have the dates and accommodations of your choice, we can book for you the best places and wonderful gorilla permits for your great experience in Rwanda, the country with the thousand hills. Once we get to know the travel dates, we shall confirm the dates with the Rwanda Development Board’s gorilla permit availability as well as the availability of all other services in accordance with your planned Rwanda gorilla and primate high-end trips.

This safari trip mainly takes in the Volcanoes National Park found in a small town called Musanze, formerly known as Ruhengeri, and the park is easily reachable via public transportation from Gisenyi, Kigali City, or the Kigali International Airport.

Since it only takes a couple of hours to get to Volcanoes National Park, one can go gorilla tracking that same day and then drive back to Kigali. If you want to go on a one-day gorilla trek, you must wake up very early to get ready for your trip and leave on time.

You must be at the National Park headquarters in Kinigi by 7:00 a.m. to start the briefing exercise before you engage in the gorilla trekking safari experience. However, there is no public transportation from Musanze to Kinigi, which is the location of the National Park’s administration.

Your Rwanda gorilla and primates high-end trips can be arranged and done any time of year. The drier months of December to early March and June to September are the ideal times to visit Rwanda. The months of March through mid-May and July through September are regarded as Rwanda’s rainy season, while December to March is a long dry season with temperatures reaching 29 degrees Celsius on occasion. Although Rwanda has good weather all year, the dry season is preferred. In addition to more frequent wildlife viewing during this time, the weather is typically good.

We can therefore say that the best time for tourists who want to see mountain gorillas is when there is less chance of rain during the trek and good hiking terrain in the rainforest. Even during these drier months, we still advise wearing waterproof clothing because the equatorial climate is extremely unpredictable. Due to the fact that this time frame falls during a busy season, prices for services like car rental and lodging may increase.

On the other hand, some visitors, particularly those on a tight budget, prefer to go during the rainy season. Hotels offer discounted dining and lodging options to guests during this time due to low occupancy, which is a benefit.

Additionally, there is little demand for gorilla permits, which give tourists the opportunity to see these threatened species. We shall make sure that we organize for you the best and most comfortable Rwanda gorilla and primates high-end trips once you have emailed us for better safari arrangements.
