Meal Plan – Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

After breakfast, Today is dedicated to an exciting Golden Monkey trekking adventure in Volcanoes National Park. Venture into lush bamboo forests and open glades as you head deep into golden monkey territory. Expert guides will lead you to the habitat of ‘habituated’ golden monkeys, those that have become accustomed to human presence. While viewing is limited to one hour, you’ll have the opportunity to see these charming monkeys up close in their natural environment. Watch as the adults play, feed on bamboo leaves, and leap gracefully from branch to branch, while females tenderly carry their young.After this memorable experience, visit the Iby’iwacu Cultural Village. This non-profit organisation works to enhance the lives of reformed poachers and local communities around Volcanoes National Park by offering conservation incentives, supporting community enterprises, and facilitating livelihood projects.Return to your hotel to refresh and enjoy lunch. Later, savour a delightful dinner and relax for the night.

After an early breakfast, head to the National Park headquarters at Kinigi to meet your guides for the day. Following the completion of park formalities, embark on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure tracking mountain gorillas. Once you spot them, you’ll have the incredible opportunity to spend an hour observing these majestic primates up close. This is truly one of the most breathtaking wildlife encounters on earth! You’ll find yourself face-to-face with these magnificent giants, sharing a silent moment of mutual curiosity.Tracking the gorillas through the lush, light mountain forest on the slopes of the Virungas is a magical experience. With fewer than 700 of these massive primates left in the wild, you’ll be privileged to get within metres of the family and spend an unforgettable hour among them. Be prepared for a potentially strenuous trek, which can last up to six hours or more at high altitude. To ensure your enjoyment, we recommend being in good physical condition. (We’ve had guests as old as 70 successfully do gorilla tracking; just let your driver guide know if you need a shorter trek.)Remember to bring sturdy hiking boots, long trousers, gloves to protect against stinging nettles, snacks (for yourself, not the gorillas), and plenty of water, as the rainforest can be hot and humid. After your gorilla encounter, return to your hotel for lunch, followed by dinner and an overnight stay.
