    Chimpanzees in Nyungwe National Park

    I took a two day trip from Kigali to Nyungwe with Jonathan who was such an excellent driver! We left Kigali at 5am and arrived at Nyungwe at 10am. Did the beautiful canopy walk and then a waterfall hike. Saw monkeys and hornbills. The next morning went to find the chimpanzees and got to spend about 90 min watching them eat, build nests and play. It was a fabulous visit to an incredible park! Thank you Silverbird Tours!

    Response from the operator: Dear Lisa We appreciate your feedback and are delighted to know you enjoyed our service. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we look forward to serving you again and again.

    2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kigali.

    How much does 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,265 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kigali usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kigali is not rushed.

    Is 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Kigali, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kigali can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kigali and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kigali within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kigali?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kigali experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include One-day Akagera National Park Game Drive with a Choice 4x4, One Day Akagera Wildlife Safari, Kigali City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kigali?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kigali?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park?

    +

    Included: Chimp permits; Lunch; Canopy walk; Dinner; and Breakfast. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Kigali. Be ready about 40 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is 2 Days of Chimpanzee Trekking - Nyungwe National Park wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
