Day 6
- Gorilla Trekking Experience
- The day is dedicated to the Gorillas, you get an early cup of morning coffee or tea and a warm breakfast thereafter, drive out to the park to trek the Gorillas.
- Under the experienced guidance of your guide, you move on foot into the part of the rainforest where the huge animals live. There are less than 1000 Gorillas left in the world, and about half live here. The going can be hard as the mountains are steep, the air humid and the vegetation dense. But the exertion is all worth it when you finally reach a group of gorillas eating, grooming, playing or napping. Their behaviour is so familiar that you may feel like you have known them all your life; it is an inspiring and privileged moment to see these highly endangered creatures in the wild. Some of them are going to stand close to you - an experience we guarantee you will never forget!
