Full Tour Itinerary for 1 day Golden Monkey Trekking

Your safari driver guide will meet you in the evening in Kigali and brief you about the trip and the whole next day’s programme. The guide will pick you from the hotel at 5:00 am after enjoying your early breakfast at 4:30 am. You will then after start the expedition at around 5:00 am in the morning, spending roughly 2:30 hours on the road to the Volcanoes National Park headquarters in Ruhengeri. You will arrive at the park in time and straight away get briefing about the guidelines and rules of Golden Monkey trekking in the jungle. After briefing, you will go for the excursion in the forest.

Undertaking Golden Monkey trekking is among the outstanding tourism highlights at the Volcanoes National Park. These monkeys (Cercopithecus Mitis Kandti) are a local subspecies of the extensive Sykes Monkey, also known as the “Blue Monkey” and is prevalent to the high altitude jungles of the park.

Upon arriving into their zone, your trip enjoyment now begins. Golden monkeys are bouncy, curious and often spend their time leaping from bamboo branches to the other and playing on the plantation tree twigs. Similar to the walks to see the Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda, hikes to see the Golden Monkeys are in the pre-lunch hours. Visitors are permitted to stay for 1 hour with these rib-tickling primates. After the trailing adventure, you will have lunch at any of the lodges in Ruhengeri before driving back to Kigali where you will arrive in the evening. End of the Golden Monkey Trekking trip in Rwanda.
