★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 11 reviews · from $299Best value

Review of Kigali gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, with costs, permits, transport, timing, fitness needs, and practical packing advice.

“Note that the Gorilla trekking itself is done by staff of the national park; this is about transport from Kigali to the park and back. My driver was called John, and he did a great job. He was on point on time, brought me safely to the park, organized everything for me there, and took me to the trekking starting point. Afterwards, he took me to a lunch place and back to Kigali. He happily answered all my questions and explained things on the way. He was very flexible to stop on the way for an ATM or to take pictures.”
