Rwanda gorilla permit discount for conference tourists – Conference tourists, who stay pre or post conference dates to see gorillas, will be eligible for a 15% discount, this is one of the initiatives from Rwanda development board to boost the sustainability of tourism in Rwanda as it’s one of the country’s top foreign income earner.
Rwanda development board has continued to support tourism activities in Rwanda by encouraging travellers to visit its national parks of volcanoes national park, Nyungwe national park and Akagera national park by offering discounts to conference.
Volcanoes national park is one of the most visited national parks in Rwanda for the famous mountain gorilla tracking which are endangered and are only available in Uganda, DR Congo and Rwanda.
The park’s location from the main capital has really made it easy to access hence giving much needed opportunity to the travellers who may be visiting Rwanda for other official duties hence allowing them to trek the mountain gorillas in volcanoes national park.
The park is 120 km from the main capital Kigali which can be easily be accessible by the tarmac road north of the capital making it possible to have short safari tours like 2 days gorilla trekking safari that will see you leave Kigali after your work and spending a night near the national park before embarking on a gorilla tracking experience, over years Rwanda’s mountain gorilla home ranges have made it easy for gorilla tracking what is referred to as easy gorilla treks before returning to the lodge for relaxation and later you drive to Kigali.
Volcanoes national park is not only a home to the mountain gorillas but it’s also a home to the endangered golden monkeys, abundant birdlife and beautiful non active volcanoes of Muhavura, Gahinga, sabyinyo, karisimbi and bisoke.
