Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda

Spending time among gorillas and chimpanzees is an opportunity everyone should get to experience at least once. Although we're pretty sure you'll wait to return for another glimpse as soon as your feet have left East African soil! Rwanda is home to the last remaining mountain gorillas, finding refuge in the steep verdant slopes. Once gentle creatures made their rainforest home will have your jaw on the floor and your head in the clouds. And while you'll get down and dirty to get a glimpse of some of the human's closest relatives, you'll return to the lap of luxury at the many world-renowned lodges available. Celebrities like power LGBTQ+ couple Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have visited multiple times. And, hey, if it's good enough for Ellen! So, if you're after an exclusive African experience, then gorilla and chimp trekking should be at the top of your list! Besides, who needs gold when you can get silverbacks? ;)
