After an early breakfast, head to the park headquarters for a detailed briefing about the Gorilla Habituation Experience. This rare and intimate activity allows you to spend up to four hours with a semi-habituated gorilla family, alongside rangers and researchers as they observe and acclimate the gorillas to human presence.
The trek may take several hours through steep and misty forest terrain, but the reward is beyond words. You’ll have ample time to photograph, observe behaviors, and gain a deeper understanding of gorilla conservation. Return to your lodge in the afternoon for a soothing massage, a forest-view sundowner, and an evening of fine dining surrounded by nature.
