Hand-crafted gorilla trekking expeditions led by expert local guides through the misty mountains of East Africa.
Trek Gorilla Tours was founded by passionate conservationists and seasoned local guides with one mission: to connect you with the extraordinary mountain gorillas of East Africa — responsibly and unforgettably.
Based in Kigali, Rwanda, we organise every detail of your journey from permit acquisition to luxury lodges, so all you have to do is show up and be amazed.
We handle Rwanda & Uganda permits — notoriously difficult to secure — so you don't have to.
A portion of every booking goes directly to gorilla conservation and local community projects.
Accommodation, transfers, park fees, meals — everything seamlessly arranged for you.
From one-day encounters to multi-week safaris, every package is tailored to your pace.
Classic 3-day gorilla adventure in Volcanoes National Park — the jewel of Rwandan wildlife.
Trek Uganda's legendary Bwindi forest — home to almost half the world's mountain gorilla population.
The ultimate journey — gorillas in both countries plus chimp trekking, game drives, and cultural visits.
We secure your gorilla permits months in advance. No permit, no pay — it's that simple.
Our guides are born in the highlands and trained in gorilla behaviour, first aid, and storytelling.
Sleep in forest-edge lodges hand-picked for location, comfort, and authentic atmosphere.
We adhere strictly to park rules and fund community conservation projects with every booking.
Two extraordinary countries. One unforgettable gorilla encounter.
"Standing metres from a silverback in Volcanoes National Park was the most profound moment of my life. The Trek Gorilla team made it effortless and magical."
"From the moment we landed in Kigali, every detail was taken care of. Our guide knew every gorilla family by name. Truly extraordinary service."
"We did the Bwindi trek with our elderly parents and the team adjusted the pace perfectly. No one was left behind. We'll be back for the Rwanda trip next year!"
Permits are limited. Book early to secure your place among the mountain gorillas of East Africa.
