    My husband and I did the 3 day Gorilla Trek and Golden Monkeys, starting and finishing in Kigali. We have been so impressed with this tour. The lodgings and the experiences themselves far exceeded our expectations. Our lodging (Rushaga Gorilla Lodge) was fantastic. The location was beautiful and the staff were so lovely and helpful. All of the guides, trackers and support people involved in the treks were brilliant. Our highest regard goes to our tour guide, Jackson. We are so thankful that he was assigned to us. His local knowledge was amazing. He went above and beyond for us, specially catered to our interest in trying local food and could answer any question we could possibly think of. He made us and our belongings feel very safe and secure at all times. In addition, he was such a friendly and nice man who absolutely made this trip even more spectacular. Thank you so much Jackson, and Bamboo Ecotours.

    Asked on June 6th, 2023

    Are you able to offer a trek only option without any travel or accommodation? We expect to be in that region during the week of 24th July and have some flexibility with the dates.

      We can arrange gorilla permits for you at a fee. That would have to be paid for outside of Tourradar.
