Kigali to Rushaga gorilla habituation safari

Rushaga gorilla habituation trip departing from Kigali costs $1500 for a gorilla habituation permit. We assist you in securing the permissions needed for the trip of a lifetime to Africa.

One of the four locations for gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the Rushaga district, which is accessible from Kigali via a gorilla habitat safari.

The only place to view gorilla habituation is Rushaga, where visitors may witness the ten-member, one-year-old Bikingi gorilla family, which is semi-habituated. Because the semi-habituated gorillas may sometimes hide or act strangely, the guide may decide to stop the process.

Your four hours of gorilla habituation begin when you come across new gorilla trails, such broken tree branches, droppings, and footsteps, with the assistance of the researchers and ranger escorts. This is because you are going through the procedure that illustrates how habituated mountain gorillas are.

Gorilla Safaris at Rushaga

Since the gorilla habituation experience starts extremely early in the morning, we always advise our customers to stay the day before the experience at a site close to the Rushaga district in south Bwindi. And you go on your gorilla habituation trip alongside other tourists, researchers, and rangers.

You will be permitted to enter the forest in order to search for habituated mountain gorillas. The process of acclimating mountain gorillas to human presence is something you must grasp, which is why you are visiting semi-habituated gorillas.

When you come to new mountain gorilla trails, the four hours start to count. They snap off tree branches as they go, let out a noise, and disappear. Unlike typical trekking, when you start counting the hour after meeting the mountain gorillas, the researchers begin to give you an interesting discussion with all the explanations as you count the hours.

Reasons to Reserve Rwandan Rushaga Gorilla Habituation Safaris

The Rushaga sector is the closest and most easily accessible from Kigali, taking about four to five driving hours. Instead of making the lengthy 8–9 hour road trip from Kampala/Entebbe, you can easily land in Kigali and travel to the Rushaga region of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for your gorilla habituation adventure.

Thus, if you don’t want to go long distances by car, you can arrive in Kigali and spend four hours with the gorillas.

Because Uganda is affordable, it is now possible to arrive in Kigali, Rwanda, and then go mountain gorilla trekking in that country.
