Your driver guide will brief you the night before the trekking day so that you can get more information about what you need to carry or put on in preparation for the trek

Today will be one of the most memorable days of your life as you spend one full hour with the family of the mountain gorillas. The trek might take some time as you cut through the under growth with the help of your guide but expect a minimum of 3 hours of walking on an irregular terrain with steep ascents and descents over muddy slopes.

We recommend that you hire a local porter at the starting point to help you carry your bag or heavy camera equipment. The guide will also provide you with a steady and supportive hand when going up and down the steep ascents and descents.

Kindly note that the porters services are arranged on the ground at the starting point and paid for locally at the end of the activity.
