Overview

Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime trek into Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park with Afri Safaris to encounter the rare and playful Golden Monkeys—found only in the misty Virunga Mountains. This thrilling one-day adventure is perfect for travelers short on time but craving unforgettable wildlife experiences. Watch these curious, golden-furred primates leap through bamboo forests in one of Africa’s most biodiverse regions.

Enhance your day with an optional visit to the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund or the Iby’Iwacu Cultural Village—an ex-poacher community celebrating Rwandan culture and conservation.

Ideal for nature lovers, photographers, and explorers on a budget or tight schedule, this trek offers a rare chance to witness endangered wildlife in their natural high-altitude habitat.

Activity itinerary

Volcanoes National Park Rwanda
  • 5h
  • Admission ticket included
A transfer, begins & ends in Kigali SIMPLE ITINERARY: You should wake up early & order for breakfast as you wait for the driver to pick you up. Afri Safaris driver guide will take you to the RDB headquarter in Kinigi for briefing by 7:00am. This briefing is very important and is where you will meet other tourists and Rangers who will be leading you to the forest. The briefing covers many topics but the most important is how to behave around the golden monkey, what to expect and what to carry along while tracking the golden mok. You will be assigned a golden mok taking into consideration your overall fitness & age. This is because some of the golden monkey groups are located deeper in the forest hence requiring more hours of trekking. Porters are available to help you with extra luggage. Park Rangers will lead you into the forest to track the primates. Trekking takes btn 2 to 5 hours. After an hour of observing the golden mo, our Guide will be waiting for you at the starting point.
