The hike to the monkeys was not difficult or long. We were just there June 17th during the dry season. I could imagine that same hike being awful in the rainy season. There doesn't seem to be an age requirement- I heard from some that...More
We decided to hike Mt. Bisoke instead of visiting the gorillas given how expensive it now is. However, our visit to the park and interactions with the rangers was wonderful. They escorted us on our hike, which was a very reasonable $75 pp to hike...More
The experience was unique, moving and multi-sensory. The staff and guides at the National Park are well-trained, knowledgeable and distressingly fit (make sure you are prepared for high altitude climbing - some coast-dwellers may be left breathless in at least two ways). The interaction with...More
We were completely taken aback by the beauty of Musazne. Totally stunning place. We met the warmest people and enjoyed our nature hike in the park. Our guide was charming and well informed and very patient with us as we ascended the hills. Couldn’t recommend...More

I’d waited my whole life to go to see the mountain gorillas in Rwanda, and as our trip was quite a spur-of-the-moment decision, (after seeing Mr Attenborough do a talk here in Sydney, I simply was not waiting any longer!) we only had a couple...More

Great walk and we were lucky enough to see a family of gorillas. But it was very strenuous and steep, with wet season rain making the descent extremely muddy and slippery. We are reasonably fit walkers, but the ascent and descent both took four hours...More
The hike is extremely difficult and I would not advise any person to try the hike if you are unfit. You might have to turn back mid-way which will be very disappointing however if you are fit but an amateur hiker you can make it...More
