TREKKING
After early breakfast, with
your packed lunch go for a briefing at 08:00 hours before
beginning the trek. Gorilla tracking is unpredictable, so it is
difficult to foresee how many hours you will hike. It may take
2-8 hours, and you should be prepared to walk a long distance in
steep and muddy conditions, sometimes with rain overhead, before
you encounter any gorillas.
For conservation purposes,
time spent with the gorillas is limited to one hour. The ranger
guide always briefs you on how to behave with these gentle
giants. Later return for dinner and overnight at Lake Kitandara
Luxury Tents or A&K Luxury Tents.
