2 Day Rwanda Gorilla Trek and A visit to the Genocide Memorial.

Volcanoes National Park, also known as Parc Nationale des Volcans is the only park in Rwanda that is home to the Magical mountain gorillas, and it provides tourists from all over the world with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet these endangered gentle giants. Visitors are only allowed to spend a maximum of one hour with the Mountain gorillas in the park. This 2 Day Rwanda Gorilla Trek is a short gorilla safari that is well customized for tourists who would want to have only a gorilla trekking experience in Rwanda in the shortest time possible but not as much exhausting as the 1 Day Gorilla Tour.

Volcanoes National Park is approximately a 2 hours and 20 minute drive from Kigali via the fastest route. This gorilla safari is for those tourists who are already in Rwanda for either a conference or any other ceremony, particularly in Kigali, or for those who are arriving at the airport early in the morning on the first day and departing late in the evening on the second day.
