Frequently Asked Questions
What can I do on a 3-day tour in Rwanda?
Options include mountain gorilla trekking combined with golden monkey tracking or birdwatching in Volcanoes National Park, primate trekking in Nyungwe National Park, and multi-day wildlife safaris in Akagera National Park paired with a Kigali city visit.
Is 3 days enough time for gorilla trekking in Rwanda?
Yes. A 3-day itinerary gives enough time for travel to and from Volcanoes National Park, the gorilla trek itself, and an additional activity such as golden monkey tracking or birdwatching, without needing a longer stay.
How much does a 3-day tour package cost?
Pricing varies by itinerary. The 3-Day Akagera Wildlife Safari is priced at $1,680 per person; other 3-day packages, including gorilla and golden monkey combinations, are quoted on request based on group size and season.
What is included in the price?
Each 3-day package includes park entry or trekking permits, a professional local guide, and transport for the full itinerary. Most packages also include free cancellation.
Can I combine gorilla trekking with other primates on a 3-day trip?
Yes. The 3-Day Gorilla Trekking and Golden Monkey Tour lets you track mountain gorillas and golden monkeys within the same Volcanoes National Park itinerary.
Which national parks are covered in the 3-day packages?
The 3-day tours cover Volcanoes National Park, Nyungwe National Park, and Akagera National Park, with some itineraries also including Kigali City.
Is a 3-day Akagera safari better than a shorter one?
A 3-day Akagera itinerary allows for more game drives across different times of day, increasing the chances of spotting a wider range of wildlife compared to a single-day visit.
Do I need to book gorilla permits in advance for a 3-day tour?
Yes. Gorilla trekking permits in Rwanda are limited and should be booked well in advance; Rwagasabo Safaris arranges permits as part of the 3-day gorilla trekking packages.
