About this experience
This 2 Days Uganda Gorilla trekking safari starts and ends in Kigali, is designed for visitors who prefer to use the shortest route to Bwindi from Kigali Rwanda instead of the 10 hours journey from Entebbe international airport Uganda. The journey begins in Kigali Rwanda to Bwindi through Cyanika border then Kisoro to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest or Katuna. Gorilla trekking Safari in Uganda takes you to Bwindi Impenetrable forest for an amazing time observing wild mountain gorillas. The Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a large primeval forest located in south-western Uganda in the Kanungu District. The Bwindi forest is on the edge of the Albertine Rift, the western branch of the East African Rift, at elevations ranging from 1,160 to 2,607. The forest contains around 160 species of trees and over 100 species of ferns and countless butterflies.

2 Days Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kigali.
How much does 2 Days Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda cost?
+
Prices start at $750 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 Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda 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 Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 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 Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda?
+
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 Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda 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 Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda?
+
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 Uganda Gorilla Trekking in Bwindi via Kigali Rwanda 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.
