If you’ve been dreaming of locking eyes with a mountain gorilla in the wild, Rwanda just made your dream a lot more accessible and affordable. In an exciting move to promote tourism during the low season, Rwanda Development Board (RDB) is offering a 30% discount on gorilla trekking permits. But there’s a twist: you need to spend at least two nights and participate in other activities at either Akagera National Park or Nyungwe National Park to qualify.
This is the perfect opportunity to experience the best of Rwanda’s rich wildlife and breathtaking landscapes — all while enjoying significant savings!
How the Offer Works
Normally, a gorilla trekking permit in Rwanda costs $1,500 per person. With the new low-season offer, eligible visitors will pay just $1,050 saving a whopping $450 per permit!
Here’s what you need to do to benefit:
- Spend a minimum of two nights in Akagera National Park or Nyungwe National Park.
- Participate in at least one activity in the chosen park(s) (like a safari game drive, canopy walk, chimpanzee tracking, or boat cruise).
- Book your gorilla trek for dates during Rwanda’s low season ( November and May).
It’s an unbeatable deal that lets you combine a world-famous gorilla trek with even more unforgettable Rwandan adventures.
Why You Should Take Advantage of This Offer
1. Incredible Savings
Saving 30% on the already-premium gorilla trekking permit means you can allocate your budget toward luxurious lodges, more activities, or even extend your stay.
2. Best of Rwanda’s National Parks
- Akagera National Park: Home to the Big Five (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo), Akagera offers classic savannah safaris, boat rides, and scenic landscapes.
- Nyungwe National Park: A dense rainforest teeming with primates, birds, and the famous canopy walkway – a suspended bridge with jaw-dropping views.
The low season means fewer tourists on the trails and in the parks. You’ll enjoy a more intimate, serene experience with nature.
4. Unique Wildlife Encounters
Beyond the iconic mountain gorillas, you can track chimpanzees, spot rare birds, and see Rwanda’s diverse ecosystems in full bloom.
5. Support Conservation and Communities
Gorilla trekking fees contribute directly to conservation efforts and local community projects, meaning your adventure helps protect Rwanda’s incredible wildlife and supports sustainable development.
