Rushaga gorilla habituation safari from Kigali: gorilla habituation permit at $1500. We help you book the permits for your life-time experience in Africa.
Rushaga gorilla habitat safari from Kigali: The Rushaga region is located within Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and is one of the four gorilla trekking areas. Rushaga is the only area that offers gorilla habituation experiences, and visitors may see a semi-habituated gorilla family called Bikingi, which has ten members and one infant. The semi-habituated gorillas might occasionally hide or behave abnormally; thus, the procedure may be halted based on the guide’s advice.
With the help of the researchers and ranger guides, you begin your gorilla habituation experience, and the four hours begin when you encounter fresh gorilla trails such as broken tree branches, droppings, and footsteps. This is because it is a process that demonstrates how mountain gorillas are habituated, so you are going through the process.
Rushaga Gorilla Safaris
We always suggest our customers stay the day before the experience at a location near to the Rushaga region in south Bwindi, as the gorilla habituation experience begins very early in the morning. And you join other visitors, researchers, and rangers to begin your gorilla habituation journey. You will be let into the jungle to look for mountain gorillas that are still habituated. The reason you are visiting semi-habituated gorillas is because it is an experience, and you must appreciate the process of acclimating mountain gorillas to human presence.
The four hours begin to count when you meet the fresh trails of mountain gorillas As they move, they break tree branches, make some noise, and leave. The researchers start to give you an informative talk with all the explanations as you count the hours, for your information, unlike normal trekking, where you start counting the one hour after meeting the mountain gorillas.
