This 3-day Rwanda gorilla tour is a highlight – mainly for the Volcanoes National Park. This park is a gem as it is home to the endangered mountain gorilla and golden monkey species. They share a home under the 8 volcanoes found within Volcanoes National Park. Gorilla trekking is the main activity for this 3-day tour and will be complemented by golden monkey trekking, a Kigali city tour, and a memorable cultural experience within the Iby’iwachu Cultural Village.
