For more than 15 years we've been taking travelers to meet wild mountain gorillas in Uganda and Rwanda. Our goal is simple: an encounter so moving that you go home wanting to protect these animals and the forests they live in.
We return 50% of our profits to communities in East Africa and work with expert local guides, so the people living alongside the gorillas benefit from every trek. Supporting communities gives gorillas the space they need to keep recovering.
About us
From a short luxury trek to a 19-day East Africa adventure, every itinerary includes permits, guides and meals as listed.
Home to more than half of the world's mountain gorillas in Bwindi and Mgahinga. Lower permit costs and great value, with longer, wilder treks through dense forest.
Gorilla trekking in UgandaVolcanoes National Park is about three hours from Kigali, with generally gentler treks, luxury lodges and the legacy of Dian Fossey. Ideal for shorter trips.
Gorilla trekking in Rwanda
Half of our profits keep disadvantaged students in school and support conservation across East Africa. On some trips you can visit our partner schools, meet students and even sponsor a child's education. Education is a hand up, not a hand out, and one of the most effective ways to fight poverty and protect wildlife.
