About This Tour

Private Gorilla Trekking Rwanda 2026 — Your Group Only

Private gorilla trekking Rwanda means your group is assigned to a gorilla family exclusively — no strangers join your trek. Rwanda Safari Tours provides a dedicated gorilla guide and private 4x4 from your Kigali hotel to Volcanoes National Park and back. The preferred choice for families, couples, corporate groups, and anyone who values an intimate gorilla experience.

What Makes Private Gorilla Trekking Different

Standard gorilla trekking assigns up to 8 people per gorilla family — assembled from different bookings. With private gorilla trekking, your group (1–8 people) fills all slots of your assigned gorilla family. No strangers. Your dedicated guide stays with you from Kigali pickup to return drop-off.

Can You Choose Your Gorilla Family?

You can express a preference — some gorilla families trek easier terrain (better for older visitors), others involve steeper volcano climbs (better for fit adventurous trekkers). RDB makes the final assignment on trek day, but Rwanda Safari Tours communicates your preferences in advance and we advocate for your requested assignment.

Private Gorilla Trekking + Golden Monkey Same Day

A popular private combination: gorilla trekking in the morning, then golden monkey tracking in the afternoon at Volcanoes National Park ($100 additional RDB permit). Rwanda Safari Tours arranges both activities in a single day from Kigali and back, with lunch at a Musanze restaurant between activities.

Private Gorilla Trekking Cost

From $1,700 per person: $1,500 RDB gorilla permit + $200 Rwanda Safari Tours private service fee per person. For groups of 4+ people, contact us for group pricing. The private service fee covers: dedicated guide, private 4x4, logistics. No per-group surcharge — same price as standard gorilla trekking but your group has the experience to yourselves.
