Your adventure begins and ends in the vibrant heart of Rwanda, Kigali, its capital city.

Embark on a memorable journey as our friendly driver choices you up from your hotel or lodge, either after a hearty breakfast or with a packed one, at 4:30 am. We'll whisk you away on a scenic 2-hour drive to the renowned Volcanoes National Park. Upon arrival at the park offices, our knowledgeable park officers will provide you with a comprehensive briefing to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.

Accompanied by a seasoned ranger guide, delve into the lush forest to track the captivating primates. As you traverse the terrain, marvel at the majestic mountains and catch glimpses of various bird species. The exhilarating trek typically lasts 2-4 hours, leading you to the golden monkeys' habitat nestled amidst the bamboo forest. Spend an enchanting hour observing these remarkable creatures as they navigate their treetop domain, showcasing their agile acrobatics and unique behaviours. While capturing their essence on camera might pose a challenge, the experience is truly unforgettable.

Following your encounter with the golden monkeys, relish a delightful lunch amidst the serene forest surroundings, either from your packed provisions or in the nearby city.

Afterwards, immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of Rwanda with a visit to a local cultural centre. Here, you'll have the opportunity to learn the intricate process of brewing traditional banana beer from local brew makers. Feel free to join in the fun, squeezing juice from bananas or indulging in a refreshing glass of freshly squeezed juice (optional). Gain insights into the fermentation process and savour the unique flavours of our local brew, all while supporting the local community through activities like basket weaving.

As the day draws to a close, our guide will chauffeur you back to Kigali, leaving you with cherished memories of an enriching and unforgettable excursion.
