Volcanoes National Park or Bwindi for Gorillas
Hi! I am traveling in a family with two adults and two kids (16 and 21). We have 3-4 days in the area and are currently planning on flying into Kigali. We would like to trek gorillas in either Volcanoes National Park or Bwindi. For how it appears, Bwindi is a nicer, park with more gorillas, but it also seems to be farther and more expensive. Is it worth crossing the boarder to Bwindi or is Volcanoes National Park nice as well!
Answer ( 1 )
When do you want to trek the gorillas? Trekking gorillas in Bwindi Forest is cheaper than in Volcanoes park
Volcanoes Gorilla permits cost 1500$ Bwindi gorilla permits cost 600$ and 700$ after June 2020
Both parks are good but trekking gorillas in Bwindi forest Uganda is pocket friendly. It is half of Rwanda’s price
