    What an amazing experience. This park is extremely well organized and the rangers know what they are doing. There are a variety of hikes and activities to choose from. We opted for the golden monkey trek and my husband climbed the Bisoke volcano. Both were incredible experiences. The guides who take you up the mountain have strict rules and enforce a turnaround time regardless of whether you summit or not. This is for safety reasons. Highly recommend the park and also recommend booking in advance if going in high season or on the weekend. Oh, and did I mention the best free coffee? Everyone was raving about it!

    Primates Eyes Safaris exceeded all our expectations. The communication before the trip was clear and helpful, and the actual experience was even better. The gorilla trek was unforgettable — standing face to face with these gentle giants was simply incredible. We highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Rwanda!

    Om du noen gang får mulighet til å oppleve gorillaer i naturlige omgivelser, så vil du få en opplevelse for livet! Turen kan variere i tid, alt ettersom hvor gorillaene er. Du må stille godt forberedt med gode fjellsko som tåler vann, utstyr, mat og drikke, for turen kan være utfordrende - spesielt om du ikke er vant med fjellturer. For enkelte kan høyden også gjøre det utfordrende å puste. Forholdene kan være glatte og med mye søle, spesielt om det er mye regn. Ta med deg regntøy og hagehansker for å beskytte deg mot brennesle. Men frykt ikke - du har med profesjonelle guider og vakter som har god kunnskap om alt. Du kan også betale folk for å bære sekk og utstyr - noe du bør vurdere dersom du ikke er så vant med fysiske utfordringer. Veien til nasjonalparken er en opplevelse i seg selv. Du går gjennom bebygget område og jordbruksområder. Hver meter gir et unikt innblikk i hvordan hverdagslivet er for folk i området. Før du går inn i selve nasjonalparken får du grundige instruksjoner i hva du skal gjøre og ikke gjøre. Guidene er oppmerksomme, hjelpsomme og gir hele tiden god informasjon. Og så - selve opplevelsen av å være så nær gorillaer i sine naturlige omgivelser er noe som vanskelig kan beskrives med ord og bilder, for selve nærværet gjør så sterkt inntrykk! Når du først møter gorillaene har du en tine for å observere og ta bilder. Du kan komme så nærme som to meter fra de mektige dyrene!
